god i love loving landing the perfect E and travelling really far and two of them follow me and i just land the Q and both of them are stunned and it's just an NNNNGH moment

unfortunately i can't carry a game when my ADC is trash, but when they complain to me about accidentally stealing kills when they retreat and i don't, well, that's kinda on them, they should've kept going and trusted in my wisdom as glorious leader of the lane support

bard..... is good

bard is one of the strongest candidates for a carry support actually, i have gotten 1v3 kills on the enemy adc as bard before on numerous occasions, dude kicks rear end

The best part of that game was that I had picked Taric because the enemy team had first three picks gone AD like Jax/Yi/Poppy or something and so I knew also another ADC was coming and 4 AD vs Taric is basically an auto-win if you don't feed (I will always play Taric into an enemy draft like that no matter what). Only after the game loaded did we realize it was Support Master Yi (first time I had ever seen that and I'm assuming it was some kind of draft argument that no one dodged out of). From what I could tell about Support Master Yi, he hits his power spike around Level 1-2 and then never does anything useful after that. Would not recommend.

that reminds me of the time palladion picked support dorans blade fiora and we ended up getting like 3 kills in the early game and snowballing the poo poo out of the lane

other than releasing pics of his girlfriend(?) for playing lee sin* and being a brony fucker thats all i know about him


that is pretty massively autistic

* - playing lee sin outside of support is pretty unforgivable though.
xj9 was one of the best junglers in the world and if he was not xj9 he would be the most beloved streamer of all time. unfortunately he was also a mentally ill brony who made like 6000 accounts on the forums to pimp out his stream which was already popular(5k-10k viewers) anyway because he was probably the best vi player in addition to all of the other stuff you know

mana items on singed are a trap. corrupting potion and/or one dring will provide all you need and you want the rylais asap so you're significantly safer proxying and have teamfight presence.

mana items are pretty good on singed actually but unless you are going rod of ages there is no particular need to rush them. rod of ages is pretty good on him but it makes him pretty passive. a cool item to get on singed is: iceborn gauntlet, as if you are good you can punch people in midair when you fling them

I just splitpush the whole game and pretty much just hosed around. Had a hard time with the Illaoi and Hecarim repeatedly smashing my face in but after I got a few items I just kinda snowballed into the annoying piece of poo poo that Singed is.
you are falling into the trap of basing your itemization around singed passive. your build is one of those theorycrafting potential builds where in the end you say "wow look at all of the synergy!!" but what ends up happening is it takes you so long to do anything with that build since it has no power spikes that you are having a much harder time in lane than you should since every major item you have is another piece of the puzzle and every major item everyone else has is a major item

Hot tip for climbing out of bronze: make sure you play solo lane hypercarries who can drag the rest of the team to victory kicking and screaming. It's the only way you will escape elo hell.

the best way to get out of bronze is to pick some aggressive hero and pretend to go support, and then just repeatedly murder the enemy bot lane 1v2. by going botlane like that you are getting to snowball off 2 retards instead of 1, and your adc gets freefarm the entire game, plus the dumb poo poo botlane is going to probably bitch at the jungler to come and you can get double buffs off him

I did it. I finally officially stroked out last night and started full on ranting at people in chat. The nominal trigger? Playing jungle, going bot specifically to hold lane (which was pushed up to tower) to allow a 5% health Draven to back. Pinging back, over and over. Having him sit around for 30 seconds to "get some XP." Having him walk too far forward, and get blasted with a Sona chord. Having him then claim it was "worth for the XP."

The real trigger? I hate everyone who loving plays this game. (Except for all of you, you are all cool.)

This is my confession of guilt. I need absolution.

just do what methanar does and violently cuss out people in your game out loud

I'm in the same boat, but replace Dota with HoTS. I was more hoping to see if anyone had a basic primer to all the heroes? Was playing with some sort of fish man and he kept eating me and enemies on such a low cooldown that like. That couldn't be his ult, right?

that guy is tahm kench and is the motherfucker of league of legends. if you get attacked look at your character for a split second to see if you have anything appear on your guy to indicate if you get hit more something will happen because there are a few other characters that get extra damage if they hit you a few more times(vi, vayne, braum, to name a few) and other people do extra damage if they hit you after marking you with one of their abilities

Plat 1 has always felt pretty agonizing because it's that horrible realm where every loving idiot trying to do their gimmick of DIAMOND TOPLANE SORAKA ONLY AMA ON REDDIT TWITCH.TV/FUCKINGIDIOTMORON alongside the dudes that are genuinely very much plat that think they really should be diamond and the occasional hysterically good smurf. And running into the same idiots repeatedly because that's all that's around to queue up

Even three years later I have ptsd from playing with/against the morde only player i had to work so loving hard to get to diamond the first time

the worst thing is when those guys do not get to play their gimmick champion so they are just like low gold level players who have no idea what the hell they are doing anymore. i played a game on my buddys plat 1 account one time and it was obnoxious because our mid velkoz main was forced to go top and just fed his rear end as riven meanwhile my leona support set up a dictatorship down there and would micromanage everything i did. naturally, when things went south it was my fault but anything good that happened was a result of "me finally listening". i can only imagine what people actually trying to rank through that clusterfuck would have to deal with

I'd like to have a second champion to play when Volibear gets picked/banned but nothing I've tried has really seemed to click with me. I only play jungle and top and I prefer to play champs that are relatively to really tanky. Udyr feels like a strong choice, but he gets banned in about 85-90% of Bronze/Silver games. Same with Jax and Mundo. Anyone willing to toss out some ideas? Here's my op.gg if you want to look at all the champions I've tried and failed to play.

do not take cinderhulk on amumu please. runic echoes is way better. my early game build on amumu is runic echoes, boots, and haunting guise. gets you relatively tanky but makes you hit like a truck to assist in easy ganks. this lets you transition into more main line sunfire abyssal pretty easily or you can go for an ap ryliandries type of thing. aside from that look into gragas, zac, nasus, and malphite. poppy is also pretty good right now.

Recipe: Hextech Revolver + Kindlegem + 800 Gold = 2750 Total Gold
Health: 300
Ability Power: 80
Cooldown Reduction: 10%
Active - Fire Bolt: Dash 300 units in a direction (at 1200 speed) and then unleash a nova of fireballs that deal 100 - 250 (+25% of your Ability Power) magic damage to enemies hit. Enemies hit by more than one fireball take 15% damage from additional balls. (30 second cooldown, shared with other Hextech items).
This Dash cannot go over walls.

"One of the issues that we've struggled with in a lot of mid-range mages is that many of them essentially brute force their way to victory through raw numbers. They also don't have a ton of ways to opt into more flexible or flashy combat patterns with their core itemization."

"Hextech Rocket Belt is an extremely dangerous effect that acts as either a range increased for their spells - a burst of initiation power - or simply a quick reposition tool so that these mages can fight in a more clever manner."

as long as your mouse is not wireless and you are comfortable with it you can kick rear end with any mouse. i would bring my lovely 90s microsoft optical mouse to lan tournaments and confuse all of the elite gamers who had 300 dollar razer mice or whatever the gently caress
