Argh

Now they're going to screw around with Jax. I hope he doesn't end up worse for it. Sivir at least can't really do anything but get better. I don't know how it'll affect Udyr.

No, I mean Sivir. She's one of the worst champions in the game and this change at least brings her to attention.


Stop bashing my favorite champion!

Jax only has one skill that works with dodge, though granted, it's a huge part of his gameplay. I wonder what they'll do.


Sivir is piss-easy to fix though. Make Q good again, reduce W number of bounces to 3, up her range to standard carry values (550), make sure the bounces use reduced range. Might be hard to code, but otherwise...yeah, easy enough. Her kit is good, it just needs number tweaks.

Also make her spell shield block everything it should instead occasionally glitching out.

Joke?

He spell shield is actually better than advertised. When it glitches it will sometimes block MORE than 1 spell at a time.

If Sivir got a passive that actually complimented her skill set, then sure, why not? As it stands, she needs more than that.

And Sivir hasn't been touched since I started playing, so 4/5 months ago?

That's because they touched her slightly and she was wildly OP. Again. Because of how she works, any buffs to base values are worth five times as much due to Ricochet and the double hit on Q. Like I said, she's all numbers. Just needs number tweaking, not new skills (passive aside, but that doesn't count).

You seem to be implying that people will always play badly after bad games.

Sometimes it can take me a long moment to completely put a loss behind me, but I never approach the next game with anything less than my best effort.

Just last night:

Loss ~ Ashe ~ 2-8-3 (0.63)
Win ~ Gangplank ~ 3-3-18 (7.00)

Horrible HORRIBLE loss in which I did not play well followed by an excellent win in which I played very well.



Obviously Gwindor may not be doing everything in his power to win, but that doesn't mean he is tilting. And maybe he IS tilting, I just think it is fair to assume he is.

Do you guys suggest playing the same champion over and over so you become really good with that champion, or playing several champions so that you are more diverse but not quite as specialized in one play style?

I suggest STARTING with just one or two champions.

You learn how to play them very well against a variety of champions. You learn how your 1-2 champions work both with and against most of the other champions. And you will learn those other champions in relation to your champion(s) of choice.

And then when the time comes to branch out and expand you will have a pretty good idea about things.

My first main was singed and as a result I seldom have a difficult time against enemy singed. I was already intimately familiar with his match-ups and his weaknesses because they were MY weaknesses when I played singed.

And from singed it got expanded to Nunu, and from Nunu to others and so forth. Intimate knowledge of how a champion plays will always be valuable. Playing any of the mains I've had for any length of time is like riding a bicycle now.

Normally I'd agree with you, but after ten straight losses? I dunno, I don't think think assuming tilt is being unfair to Gwindor or anything.

Something I recommend when trying to learn a champ is to well, watch other people play. Look at what they do right as far as specific skills and tactics go. It's much more engaging to be able to visualize the tactics as opposed to simply being told. For example, I imitated FD's Galio after he destroyed me with it! I learned Janna from watching other Jannas play. I basically had never played Janna before and then jumped straight in and was pretty good with her. There's always things to work on, but I find that watching other people for timing etc. is the best. Like, I learned a lot of Lux tricks from playing with HGR as opposed to playing Lux myself.

You know you are in trouble when your support Fizz (forced because people are idiots) has more CS than both solo singed (who was top all game and wasn't in 1 teamfight and went 2-12-2) and solo kass (1-11-8, 88cs at 35 minutes).

If I could have just had a Solo Lane, I could try and carry these guys, but nope lol.

thanks for your advice, guys.

I finally won one. I picked Morgana. We had an AD Janna who built two PD first, and at one point all of our inhibs were down, but we came back to win.

I think my problems all stemmed from me trying to learn Tristana. I am a terrible AD carry player.

But, at least, I think I can do it.

Now I'm confident I can play whatever role my team needs, so I think I'll buy one more Rune page, and I'll finally be ready to start ranked. Maybe.

Not today though, gonna go see my family. Happy Thanksgiving, guys.

Ranked Team Update:


~FD's Magikarp Is Awesome Stats~

Wins: 6 (+3)
Losses: 0

Kills: 19 (+7)
Deaths: 3 (+2)
Assists: 39 (+15)




Win ~ Skarner ~ 1-0-2 (infinity)
Win ~ Rammus ~ 2-1-6 (8.00) - 1185
Win ~ Warwick ~ 4-1-7 (11.00) - 1229


We are now 6-0 and we actually have points so we should show up on this list soon:
http://competitive.na.leagueoflegends.com/ladders/na/current/ranked_team_5x5


Only 69 teams are above 1200 atm (we think it starts people at 1000?) but it doesn't update very often, so we're waiting for it to place us.

Oh and all 3 wins were pretty standard. Unfortunately I was the only death in both of our last two games, but both times I died to start a solid team fight and both times they should not have been focusing me, so I'm not gonna let it get me down no matter what Chris says ;_;

Our 3rd opponent was actually on the top list with 1210 at nine wins and five losses, but they've lost two games in a row now so they should be falling off. All in all things could not have started better and I'm excited to see where this goes from here.

This reminds me of one of my several losses yesterday. I was Sona, and I had the third highest CS on my team and the highest money made. I wasn't even trying to get minion kills for the first 5 minutes, but neither was my lane partner who kept tower diving our opponents or leaving me to go and try and gank mid.

Sivir rework: More range, W is now next-hit instead of a toggle, passive is lite-Night Hunter.

Lane changes: Nerfed minion damage (lol wut) and health potion heals.

Sivir rework seems fine.

Jungle and Lane changes seem counter intuitive, people will still play passive and fear overextending because junglers are going to be super scary now.

Keep in mind, this is the mindset of the later

WOW, leave the dam jungle alone its was easy enough with the new masteries let alone even before that. This game is just gonna be filled with more dumbass noobs now. Anyone watching this patch preview video needs to dislike it so riot can notice the horrible mistakes they are making.%uFEFF

Their gripes are that *GASP* jungling is now a viable option for summoners who aren't level 30, ignoring that this opens up new options for the better players, maybe making it so that jungling without the exact right runes is not only possible, but viable. They just hear that something was made easier and suddenly get defensive because of how much crap the game gets for being "casual."

I'm sure that some "pros" will take issue with the changes, but that doesn't make them any different from this guy.

That last game was kind of even for awhile, we even gave up the first dragon of the game. Which I think is actually the first dragon our enemies have picked up in all 9 games. But then we made the next 2 teamfights count so it was fine ^_^


I'm somewhat nervous though. Eventually someone is going to deal us our first team loss.

Well, it had to happen some time =P 10-0 start would have been too good to be true I guess.

Loss ~ Rammus ~ 0-7-5 (0.71) - 1325

They were strong players, few over/around 2k soloQ. Their bot hit level 2 before ours which really set them back, and their ryze was just very strong. We made some small-medium mistakes and we're pretty aware of what they were. Our scores took more of a hit than then maybe needed to on account of us not giving up until the last, but oh well.
