My ELO is 1120 after 15 games. Is that pretty low? And how many points do you gain typically for a win?

You're slightly below average, average is 1200-1250

You typically gain +10-14 points per win after your first 10-15? placements matches

The safest play is always to try and set up to be strong at your critical timing. Playing overly passive/greedy builds is just as "unsafe" as playing overly aggressive/early-game focused builds.

Is it pretty typical to feel shafted as far as teams go? My average kills is a decent bit higher than average deaths, and I feel like I generally play better than my teammates. Maybe I'm just arrogant, but it's really frustrating.

Everyone feels shafted, in reality even if you are shafted it's only by a trivial amount. Just keep playing. ;P

There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a power peak midgame. Even if you have a lategame team-comp, you need someone to control the midgame tempo, and a jungler's development is well suited to fill that role.

The only problem is that Western junglers play these garbage gp10 stack builds that stall the pace of the game past Udyr's peak in power.


I think it's funny that Hotshot is the only Western jungler who dislikes gp10. If things change and junglers move away from gp10 then Hotshot is obvs a prophet.

Depends on what role you're playing. Are you a solo/carry? Then you need to do your job and carry your team. Too many people think "I'm about even, why does my team suck" and fail to realize they should be much better than even because their role demands it, and it isn't their teams fault.

I think philo stone is just a must on all junglers the gold it provides purely from the stats it gives and the investment safety in the form of shurelyas is too good to miss.

Hog is just a tempting buy becauase people like to have more HP bars and it gives gold/10, but I think if there's something to be skipped in typical builds its defintely the hog side of things. Skipping philo on many champions is not viable and on udyr for example it's going to up the risk of ganks meaning less risky shit can happen.

The reason hog is so popular though is because randunis is really strong and if you're going to get it it's silly not to get hog fast.

It's not like Riot is just going to leave NA to rot...

They'll figure it out, your money won't be wasted unless you completely jump ship when you hit rough seas.

That was kind of what I was getting at, the fact he's had so much success with early game stacking instead of gp10 would show the strength of the build itself since he's not very good for how high he is

I've had this line of thought for a while now. On any champ w/ mana (sans Nocturne and trundle) I get philo in the jungle now. I started going double gp5 on Udyr (unless randuin's isn't needed) because shur's helps so much with engaging and ganks that it allows you to have much more presence in lanes.

I play supports and get higher KDs than my carries, and without stealing the kills. Just finishing kills after I've wasted all my heals on my AD carry. I have a hard time getting a solo role. I haven't lost one when I have been solo top/mid. Just this last game I went 14/2/7 when I got solo top. I just have douchebag teammates who always take it even when I ask for it. Do I just be the assertive dick to get those roles?

So in this example, what sort of items would you go for instead of double gp10 on udyr?

Shurelya's rush, Philo->Aegis/Wit's/Glacial/etc.

The difference in teamfight strength in having Shurelya's+Aegis/Wit's vs. Philo+HoG+Aegis/Wit's is very noticeable (Shurelya's ~500 gold more expensive, but covered by the fact that your first Shurelya's gank should be a guaranteed kill if you play it right).

I'm not advocating against gp10 in general, I just think it's silly to build an item like HoG that stalls out your tempo on a hero like Udyr that doesn't WANT to stall out his tempo.

Last time I checked, bronze was top 25% of the population, so I don't know where you get the he's below average from. TLers tend to forget the majority of people are absolutely trash.
