So far it's been very helpful in letting me focus on actual improvement over my irrational fears. I think it's legitimate to dodge when your team has a Garen AD Carry. Shit like that happening all the time atm. | ||

If you're really set on gaining Elo or loath not playing to the meta/trolls, then dodging makes sense. | ||

So far it's been very helpful in letting me focus on actual improvement over my irrational fears. I've adapted a similar mindset, but it has quickly gotten to the point where I just treat ranked games like normal games. I've found myself playing champions i've only ever played once or twice before just because I feel like it. Not good for me or my team. Also queing drunk at 3 in the morning is probably terrible for everyone including myself. | ||

It's all the better if there's some oddball in the game because then I'll learn to stop worrying and love the Elo bomb. If I spent four hours not playing because of dodges I'd only be hurting my goals. If you're really set on gaining Elo or loath not playing to the meta/trolls, then dodging makes sense. i don't care too much about the 'troll' picks, but some1 else inevitably does and dodges....and then there goes another 10 mins waiting for queue and picks. | ||

Aren't you semi-nervous about having to play a ton more matches if you do poorly in placements though? I went 0-2 my first two ranked, despite tryharding and playing well. It frustrated me and I'm a little scared of dropping low in placements, as it means having to grind out 10x the amount of games to get where I started :/ | ||

I'm excited to but I gotta say Korea only having one qualifier spot is a little crazy. Especially considering SEA and TW get two each. Also really hope CLG.NA makes it. | ||

Also really hope CLG.NA makes it. Yeah, Korea probably deserved two spots over those two regions. Still, the amount of foreign talent at a US LoL tournament is pretty impressive. | ||
