Yeah, I get all of that, at least on a conceptual level. But reading stuff like this and seeing it in action are two different things, and thats why I would like to play with someone, and that way they could also tell me exactly which part of my game i need to work on the most.

What characters do you play/want to learn?


'Playing well' and 'doing what you're supposed to be doing' can be vastly different things, depending on the character.
I have a very unique name.

I can play nearly every character at a satisfactory level. It isnt so much learning how to play specific characters, and more just how to win CONSISTENTLY.

Solid advice from xDaunt. If you only understand it at a conceptual level you just need to play more so you can eventually implement it into your play. Kind of like BW training. The more you play the more you will be familiar with certain situations and the way to play in response.

I strongly recommend that you start by mastering one or two champs that can carry. Pick one jungler and one laner. It's hard to learn the game if you're also simultaneously learning the champ that you're playing. You want this to be as controlled of an environment as possible.

What I meant was that I dont specialize cuz I dont particularly like any one champion more than the rest and because of that I tend to play who I feel like, providing they fit that role. For example, my MF, Ashe, and Caitlyn are all about the same level: fairly decent, and pretty much always better than the people I play with. Same with my Annie, Anivia, Lux, and Akali for casters and Malphite, Ramm, Shen for tanks. I can jungle WW. I have about 700 games played, and over 25 games played with most champions. I know how to play the champions I play in ranked. Are they at the same level as Jiji? No, but I dont think Im as good as jiji. Mechanically, I feel like am fine. The problem that I think that i have is that I'm missing some strategy aspects of the game, such as how to adjust my play for the team that I have. It's more than having an eye on the minimap or more cs than my lane opponent. Thats why I want to play with someone well above me in a game, so I can learn the situational strategies in real time.

The most. Amazing game... EVER PLAYED. At first our team was quite discouraged that our mid ranged carry, 0123456789 fed super hard and then rage quit the game... but we heard a distant, yet distinct, noise in our jungle. It was indeed, 5 wild Brazileans laughing. It was at this point our legendary baseball playing American troll friend thought of the brilliant idea to attack the top tower while all 5 of these savage Brazilians were chilling at our mid. Fortunately, trundles baseball bat deals extra damage to towers and he destroyed two of them and swiftly getting an inhibitor.

I'd advise against inviting this ill-mannered and, quite frankly, extremely lippy summoner to your ranked 5's.

Why do you have a recurve on singed?

Someone had to be the AD carry.
tree.hugger: Coming off of [(T)fantasy v. (T)Really] into [(T)Barracks v. (T)MVP] is like coming out of Manhattan into New Jersey. You just have to speed up and ignore it.

Ah you see, the recurve was a brilliant tactical decision made by me. All that was left standing was their nexus and 5 wild Brazillians around it. My only option was to man up and ignore all of those savages while deepsing the tower like mad.
