i actually was writing one, a "guide to winning at lol" and i used all the knowledge i learned from going from 700 elo back up to 1400 right when casseopia came out

but i tried to write it in one sitting, i had about 4 hours worth of writing down when my computer restarted thanks to windows update

thanks windows!

i have not attempted it again. but i'm willing to give you any tips or input you might want coming from someone who pulled themselves out of "elo hell"

I don't know if I've posted this before, but this is the best LoL solo queue guide I've ever read. A lot of it is still relevant.

No, winning at this game and being good at it are independent of each other. You will tend to win more if you are good though but the process to "becoming good" is different from what most people think/do.

uhhhhh

i just read that

it basically says

"pick a carry. talk shit in all-chat but don't make it too obvious. make someone else on the other team leave then win 5v4 and if you can't make someone leave, backdoor towers with TF or Yi"

that is hardly a guide to success

shitcombo just carries me to good.


Also I played some lurker from TL and sucked a fat chode as TF. I'm not actually that bad, laptops are just extremely uncomfortable to play on when you need twitchy reactions.

I've read that before, and I think that guide is pretty bad, actually.

Phrost, here I am.

Does anyone else feel bad when they play smurfs? I just made a smurf and obviously destroyed everyone and was extremely brave but I feel like i'm destroying their hopes and dreams. I remember when I first started playing and got randomly destroyed by amazing players and thought this game was unbalanced / stupid. Is that what they'll think? lol idk was just something I was thinking about.

i don't feel bad because if you play at stupid hours like me most of the other players are smurfs too

and one time we ran into phreak and some other obviously riot people (one dude named himself Ryze Bot) whose names didn't show up on the scoreboard, and their levels were like 12 or w/e
either hackers or riot people who changed their levels and names @_@

alt+0160 still does the trick on people who don't know about it...

And I just bought HoN. For 10 dollars which are about .30 euros it's totally worth giving it a shot.

ive never played a smurf, but thats the reason i dont, i do not want to play against lower level people and destroy them because i know they are going to be lower than me, and if i get paired against lower people than me on solo queue, thats riots fault, but to just know for sure your going to ruin the game for the opponents team til 25 minute mark is just cruel

i lol'd:


guitarasaurus: jazriel taught all of us a little something about LoL
guitarasaurus: he taught me how good a full AD runepage is, on everyone
guitarasaurus: because you never miss a last hit
guitarasaurus: and then you can buy other stats. ezpz.
Waezer: You shouldn't be struggling on last hits to begin with (on most champs)
Waezer: I'm not saying having bad damage doesn't make it harder, but it's not *that* much harder
guitarasaurus: woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh

The first ~10 minutes of that game would have been informative regarding jungling damage control... got fucked by the Warwick on blue, but recovered by chugging ~10 health potions to maintain jungling speed.
