So wondering how good is having a lot of mpen for an AP carry? like how well does a full mpen page (reds,blues,quints) compare to a regular page like mpen reds/ap level blues/flat ap quints? Which benefits in better in early/mid/late etc...

So, I'm on mega tilt lately, losing game after game after game when I got to thinking...
I haven't really improved beyond 1350 in quite a while.
In fact, as soon as I started playing ranked seriously I got to 1350 and pretty much stuck there.

Then thinking about all of my other friends as well as other TL members that I know....my question is this:

Does anyone REALLY improve?

Theoretically speaking it sounds like a stupid question, but then again, what players do you know that have gotten better over time?
I don't want to mention names but of the bunch of TL members I know, none of them have really increased their elos any at all that I can think of, and I'm pretty sure that includes the 'unofficial' TL team.

All of the high elo players that we know of all reach their high elo on multiple smurfs and stick there. How many 'new' high elo players have cropped up over time, slowly improving their game, crawling their way through the 1500-1600s to make their way up to 2200? (Note: I meannot eventually reaching their true elo, rather actualyl belonging at 1500, and slowly improving until they ar better than those players.)

I understand what I must do to improve, the leadership, the proper mechanic,s the not raging, yet I just can't seem to put it into practice beyond a certain level. I doubt I have gotten any better in the past 6+ months.


Any thoughts on this matter?
How much have all you TLers improved your game? What are your experiences?

my journey from nobody to somebody
started playing last may
demolish every1 with free champs till i hit level 12 or something due to 4 years of dota :3
i knew from the started i wanted to play either ap or ad carry in the game since i played a carry in dota and i hate supporting
i stuck with ad since twitch was free that week and i really liked him
went forum surfing a bit and learned corki was op!
checked his price on the store and realized he was 6300 -.-;;
after more forum browsing some1 said trist is like corki but worse
so i picked up trist~
and from there it was all a blur
kept rising till i started going vs jiji,taburiss,judge,chau,lilballz premade
i kept adding them but they never accept
got mad and made my own premade to beat them~
nyxnyxnyx,denace,valldor,blmz,me
we did really well and it accomplished what i wanted
1.beat jiji premade multiple times
2.get high elo snobs to add me
3.get invited to play with jiji premade :>
about a week or two before season 1 started i got put on waiting list at a college art college i really really wanted to get into
so i stopped playing and devoted most of my time to art
sadly i didnt make the cut and i went back to playing lol about a month or two into season 1
i crushed through 1200 -> 1600 pretty easily with trist
after that it was a slow climb to 1800 duoing with various people
than i hit a big wall
i couldnt get gold elo(1875) no matter what i did
so i took a step back re-evaluated my game and started to really think about why i lost and how to get better
a week or two after that i went from 1850 to 1950 in a few days
that was around 20th place on ladder back than an its when i started forming my first serious team
Heko 4 Council
the original members of heko 4 council

loco
atlanta
saintvicious
asier
heko
zirun

we didnt acomplish much and we broke up after neweggs
and thats when i started streaming
at first it was for TL people mostly
than regi invited me to stream for tsm and i agreed~
fast forward a month or two
regi dont wanna play with clg cuz he dont like hsgg
and he wants me to make a team so he can meet me at season 1 finals
the first person i ask is saintvicious
of course he says yes
regi says he can get oddone to jungle for us and that we should talk to chaox
chaox is in
odd is in
we look for a 5th and chaox and saint really like feedfest
so we get feedfest
hsgg asks me to stream for clg
i tell him no
regi hears about it
regi leaves clg and joins tsm
fast forward another 2 months or so
marcou tells me i cant play with tsm for season 1 finale so i leave
and its all down hill from there l0l
the only real interesting thing that happens after that is me making 2 bad choices
1. i leave team maknoon to join team op
2. i get kicked out of team op cuz i argued with ggumy and manyreason
so im not on either team for wcg zzz
than again im on the waiting list for that sameschool from last year and this time im balancing gaming and art ! :>

tl : dr - loco was gonna tell some tl noob how to improve but he writes random shit about what happened during last 2 years of playing lol



tl;dr

bad stuff
meet nyxnyxnyx
good stuff
cool beans

It depends on how well the champ scales with AP, for example katarina is best with mpen reds+quints+other blues(I think mpen blues are bad for a rune slot)

Most other ap champs have decent enough ratios that red mpen, flat ap quints, and ap/18 blues are optimal.

Added multiple rune purchases to the store. Players can now use the “+” and “-“ signs to choose how many runes of a certain type to buy, up to 9

FINALLY.

I.... I hope they're not skipping champ balance this patch...

I don't know if I can handle two more weeks of GP.

Edit: And we're down for maintenance. Not looking good.

Editedit: Leona, the Radiant Dawn; new skins; and game balance changes have been delayed while we work out a few known issues, and will not be in this patch.

best thing ever^^
so annoying to count with and then when someone talks to you or you get distracted otherwise you either have to click back to your profile -> runes then back to shop -> runes or end up with 10 runes^^

edit: also region selector is nice, no need for 2 clients installed anymore i guess

Yea I'm curious too if the champion changes will come with this patch too. I haven't read much about them. Just the change to Warwick's heal, probably in the form of his q. Also Yorick buffs! As well as a few changes to items, going to be quite the patch if its all included in the one happening tonight.

WW with his Q is just unkillable, and Yorick needs those buffs.
And also GP needs changing o.o
I hope they cover the most needed changes this patch

well since you aren't in any of the countries that are listed on either server I guess you got lucky bro :>

The platform to which you have been assigned is: EU Nordic & East
NOT FOR LONG!

oh also to add to the improvment discussion: how bout 5hitcombo wasn't he like 1500 something and then decided it would be a good idea to be good and went to 1800?
