Brees is a one note,he can play sion well(still worse than lilballz) and thats about it,his jungling skillz are better than ur average jungler at best but his nowhere near ball's level.Lilballz is the best jungler in game followed by Maknoob when his not drunk on soju as for what to max on Olaf first,Q is so much better than E at early levels,Q+lizard is op slow and Lilballz might max E first but that doesn't mean you should also,Chauster,Maknoob,and Finrage max Q first and so do I,it makes ganking so much more fun and with coordinated teammates it's so much better than E. my 2 cents
maknoon isn't even a dedicated jungler wtf are you talking about. Finkill doesn't even play Olaf, let alone play Olaf well, let alone play at all anymore. yet to see Chauster play Olaf but i'm sure he'd be good. actually i just checked their ranked stats and the three you've mentioned have played Olaf a total of 5 times (maknoon 1, chauster 4, finkill 0).

i've actually never seen Brees play Sion but his Olaf is solid along with the rest of his jungle heroes (ranging from shaco to BEAR STANCE). back when we were tryharding solos, we were ranked #1 and #7 with him dominating jungle and me dominating mid. there is a short list of people who i think can jungle better with any hero than Brees.


oh well this was back when i was playing regularly and panth was still viable but maknoob would insist on playing olaf so he has a back up champ in tourneys,and chauster had a boy crush on olaf and would play him in scrims,finkill used to be a good jungler(better than lilballz who only played sion at the time) but aon figured that they didn't need another rager and he got the sideline boot(especially when they already have rageinald) ranking #1 and #7 doesn't mean shit if u can't keep it up,look at sabertiger who spammed korean forums claiming "i'm not #1 cuz i play alot i'm #1 cuz i'm the best and that's all there's to it",hell even heko was ranked 13th at one point,if some1 in 1600~1700 put's off a good month or two to play constantly they can easily achieve top 1~20 rank in solo ladder

and fyi bree was never that well known for his jungling most of the times he was known as the 2nd best sion


The last sentence of your big paragraph doesn't matchup with ... well the way an Elo system works at all. You can play all the games you want, if you aren't breaking 60%(give or take your matchups making up the rating you could get away with 55ish, or need 65) you are staying put in rating. There are people at 1200 with 600 ranked games played. Anyone who ever touches #1 in an Elo based ladder is at least pretty fucking good, it's literally impossible to get there without being consistently better than the people you play with. The ONLY way around this is if you are on a ladder where the best players only queue at a certain time and you can avoid that(popular in WoW arena at the end of seasons), and in that case you better not lose a game to the horribly rated people you are playing or you tank 10 games worth of rating.

I think his point is (and I kinda agree with it), if you're at a certain level of play, mass-gaming can swing you into the top, like aznwiseguy's random forays into the top 25. Just because you're able to carry, and a set of RNG games can bring you up there. But then it's not indicative of how good you actually are.

Good rating systems account for this extraordinarily well. Luckily, Riot chose the worst known rating system for LoL.

More like it's because it's a team game IMO. Solo ranked is very unpredictable; if you're good at carrying, and you land like 15 straight games with a tank main (like Kodoku Dyrus etc.) then you'll win a pretty significant number of games just by being competent/above average despite not being Xpecial.

I'm not disagreeing with that point. I'm more making an addendum to it, that if you are able to mass game and RNG a bit to the #1 spot, you're obviously at the very least 'decent.' You have to be in position for a little win streak to pilot you to #1 rating, which means you have to be within decent striking distance of it.

I'm not(and didn't come close to implying) saying that if you hit #1 you're the best, but you're probably very much solidified in the top500, probably more like top100(and this is in a team game, on a 1v1 ladder it would be more like top 20-25).

That's very fine and all but the point being made by hellohello is that saying one's #1/#7 1 week into the season is comparable to saying sabertiger and stope are fantastic because they held #1, and saying heko is a top 20 player. It's not really indicative of much other than that you're "decent" but that's not what's being insinuated.

on behalf of someone i don't know? I guess i shouldnt of said maxxed q first, which he did a couple weeks ago, i guess he refined his skill order from then and now. i was just disagreeing with brees on his no q at all mainly. you sir are very aggressive for no reason.
