League of Legends thread 2.0! UPDATES ON FIRST POST!

Yeah I’ve got a few friends who are way better than me(and I do pretty well for myself!) and they have low ranked rating and like 200 normal mode wins.

Oh shit Cassi. Buffs. Me be hyped.

>_> i have over 300 normal wins and ive been playing since January.

how the fuck do people get past the 1200 rating? this shit is impossible.

99.9 % luck 1 % skill.

Playing AP Sion seems to help.

duo queue, there’s literally no reason not to.

Lol @ people that actually believe this.

Realistically it is 50% / 50%.

Hugh Mad.

I just want to emphasis this since my play group has been doing this a lot more and bringing us a lot of success.

The mentality of tanks is the need to be upfront and the worth of a tank is equal to their ability to survive a team-fight. So if you have a team of strong poker(s) like Ashe,Ez, Nidalee etc etc. Putting a lot of free harassment on the tank either forces them to leave or forces them to fight with subpar health either way making it an easy 4v5 depending on the situation.

I’d say it’s about 0% luck, 75% skill 25% playing a lot of ranked games. Yes you will get paired with people who suck and lose games for but you always have to remember that if you are competent/above the skill level of your current elo the odds that your team has a screw up are less than that of the enemy teams(SIGNIFICANTLY less if you have a duo queue with someone who is also competent). The problem is looking at small sets makes people think probability is full of crap, but the more games you play the closer you’ll get to your real ELO.

There is definetly a luck factor in it. Not all the time, but sometimes. There are some teams that no matter how good you try to carry will still drag you down to a loss.

It all starts at the champ select. Try to really push the importance of having good communication and helping each other out. If you can get your team to talk and call missing and help each other out, you can really start to turn a game around by working together and outplaying the enemy team.

Late game sometimes all it takes is one ace to push and win with one outer tower still up in mid.

My argument would be that there is in fact luck in each specific match, but as far as your long term elo is concerned luck isn’t really a factor. As you play more and more matches the effect of those “bad luck” matches are diminished(because bad luck matches are much less likely than an average match, and slightly less likely than a “good luck” match).

I’ve won games where my team literally didn’t have a single tower left. It’s amazing how much exp/money you get with double super minion waves streaming into your base, it can actually turn around the money advantage really quick.

[media=youtube]vvuAw6KNn2E&feature=feedu"[/media], looks like a great champ all around. His model is amazing.

So excited to play him, looks awesome.

brand does look awesome

Buttfucked by a team of koreans, smh.

Brand definitely does not look like he belongs in LoL lmao. In terms of his character model.

Buff to IE makes my Tryn happy!

Because Annie just wasnt enough, Brand.

Lee Sin got… nerfed?

Not sure where they are going with lowering the duration of healing reduction debuffs. Bring back healpoke?
