Pretty sure you can use the shikyo thread for that as he doesn't use it anyways.

Yo guitar pal, the reason why you got banned was martyring. Read the commandments for forum.


It wasn't really martyring the second time around, he was just quoting it to comment on it (hopefully nothing snarky) but then he decided to edit it out, of course leaving the quote up. He's no genius.

"inb4" is forbidden, he also indeed was martyring, quoting a post without adding anything is useless and it's mostly an issue with him not learning anything from the bans(hence perm), at least that's my thought process here.

And I have no idea how my posts get so much attention. o.O I'm not allowed to defend myself against incorrect and unprovoked accusations?

Also complaining about me trying to help people(which is quite a bit more useful than the people who have their entire history consist of posts calling me stupid) is... o.O Just what do you want of this forum? Also my posts aren't "brag"(okay they might seem so, in reality I just talk about it being way easier to play at a higher elo), but yet I don't see people complaining about 5HITCOMBO's brag-screenshots(where he even brags in the chat after the game). So many double standards around here.


In any case, I was thinking about possible gangplank builds and I've come up with double philo(and 1-2 hog if you can get them fast) -> trinity force with tank, with FoN and Randuins and maybe Aegis, point would be to have tons of movespeed, AoE slow, and some team help. I was also considering adding in Shurelyas Reverie for the additional movespeed and cdr. Final item could be something like Starks since armor pen and aspd are the stats that best synergize with the gigantic attack damage bonus of Q and E.

Thoughts?

not even 6 warmogs can save you from the wrath of %max hp true dmg! 2 sec CD tumble! knockback+stun 2 in one! Move speed that makes Yi looks like a steam train!

Thoughts?

There is no double standards because the difference between you and 5hit is the same as between any progamer and someone who thought woohoo after he entered gold league: he knows his shit as he as proven. He can be a aggressive son of a bitch who rages at you for wrong but he also has a good side; in that he knows what he is talking about. Youre just giving out wrong advice which people would be better off without it.
Look, if everybody says something about you its either
a) Theyre right and you have to swallow the tough pill and your pride
b) Youre a god among men
Look, I think you might remember Jazriel. I think some people at the US liquidparty thought you were similar to him. The difference between you and poor ol' Jazriel is that you're polite and relatively friendly, while Jazriel is immature and aggressive.
Personally I dont have any problems with you sharing stories etc, I did the same when I had low elo and I still do when I find I have something worth sharing.

If you can pick the highest damage dealing ranged carry while sufficiently protecting her with your comp vs their comp, why wouldn't you? ;O


Also, caller is not such a bad player, although a mega troll, so really you can't insult his abilities at this game because he at least has a decent amount of game knowledge. When you play with higher ELO you *USUALLY* tend to learn how to play the game better.
Skikyo on the other hand is actually serious about a lot of his 1300 elo games, similar to Jazriel.
This explains enough for me.


Caller still managed to get to 1700 playing triforce morde before giving up and letting #s smurf all day.

Shikyo can't break 1400, complains all the time about it, then turns around and says "Oh hey, take this advice! It's from me, I'm a trusted source."

When I give advice it's either 1. being told to me by a 2k+ elo player or 2. me reading / seeing it done by a 2k+ player, my advice isn't my own advice.

That and I'm 1450 <.< get your facts straight

also that's 1700 US elo


hi just to prove you wrong

Here's a t-test I ran. These are players around 1450 elo, including you, Shikyo. I took 15 players from both US and EU players at 15175-15190. I then calculated their win percentages, which came out to 0.635792853 for US and 0.569636062 for EU.

Then, assuming equal variance (due to the ELO system) I ran a 2 sample independent t-test and came up with a t-value of 0.983919114. At a .25 level of significance, the model concludes (two sided) that there is a difference between the US win rate and the EU win rate at the same ELO.

Namely, the US has a higher winrate than the EU at the same ELO.

Your argument is that EU players at 1450 elo are equivalent to US players at 1700 elo. In fact, statistics show that US players at 1450 elo are better than EU players at 1450 elo.

In the name of guitarasaurus, I hope that me running this statistics test (which is totally not rigorous but is still rigorous enough compared to the little you have had to offer the LoL community-which is to say, nothing.) will prove you wrong once and for all.

I wanted to quote this post because there were a couple refering to it but are confused about the results. The significant value here is .983919114 (as this falls into the 3rd standard deviation and is past the point of .05). The level of significance is regarding to the sample size present (unless my statistics is incorrect). Namely since the t-value is statistically significant, it can't be random chance that US has a higher win rate than EURO. Since it is commonly accepted that better players will have a higher win rate than bad players, the conclusion is that US players are better than EURO players. Now if that means that EURO 1450 is US 1350 or 1400 or even 1200 we can't tell from this test, but it isn't possible for EURO 1450 to be US 1700.

You could also interpret it to mean that US 1450 is easier to beat than EU 1450 no?

At any rate, simply going from higher win % to higher skill level is problematic to say the least.

Yeah, but when people see me solotop (on TT ofc) with cloth + 5hpots, they get confused. I never die because of the hpots, and 80% of the time i pick up a kill or two when i grab red (after first tele back, pick up razer, vamp sceptre and if doing well wriggles) and gank bottom.

No, no movespeed. Remember this is on TT, so everything is a lot smaller.
Well, I am not going to gank bottom if the top lane is pushed to the tower, but if it is around mid or farther then I will. Otherwise, I will probably go kill my lane opponent, or at least try.
