He's very, very good.
Thus very, very popular.
And very, very banned, so you can learn him, doesn't mean you'll get to play him much tho. ^^'

So question about this whole MMR thing
My friend, in silver 1, places against high gold (1-2tier) and low plats (5-4). If the system is as I understand this is because he has won enough that his MMR is higher than what silver 1 would imply, and hence gets queued against people closer to his MMR. But what I dont get is why he gains +5 for winning and -20 for losing. if the MMR thing is correct should these numbers be a lot closer?


Riot calls it "clamping", when you're about to be promoted to a new league your LP gains slow down to ensure that you actually belong in the new league, since you can't be demoted from there. Basically his MMR has to be mid-Gold before getting up for promotion. Remember that those players in high Gold tiers and low Plat can possibly have MMR lower than their displayed tier, and your friend is actually just approaching a low-mid Gold MMR. If he wins his promotion series and his MMR is actually super high, it's possible he will skip divisions to Gold IV or Gold III.

How long does this "clamping" period last though? Because if he keeps wining 4 games and lose 1, he will keep on losing his LP and tanks down or something.

And is there a point somewhere that the LP he earns for wining can get higher again? Or he will always gain +5 and lose -20 even when he's in BronzeV? I doubt his MMR is lower than BronzeV and the system slow down to make sure he belongs there.


For promotion from leagues, you have an uncertainty rating. I think this one is different from the expected MMR, because it doesn't want you to streak your way into a higher league. Basically, there's a threshold around +100 from the league cutoff. You need to get your MMR - uncertainty above that. If you win streak, your uncertainty can increase faster than MMR, and it will get increasingly difficult to get promoted(LP clamping). A couple of losses though, and your uncertainty drops rapidly, and you'll very quickly get to a point where you'll go right back into a promotion series if you lose.

My list is so misleading though I abuse free weeks so much outside of ranked, and play so much random shit based on how I'm feeling.

Also: omg Wheat posted in LoL GD. I know he actually plays now and then(when he's not fungaling Muta's), but I don't think I've seen him post in here ever.

Silver 1 on my promo now. I went from getting 3 points a win at the start to like 12-21 a win. I'm on a pretty big streak, went from 12 under .500 to 14 over from monday. Pretty happy with my play this week

Does anyone have any tips/tricks, to CS better as an AP mid from lvls1-7? Particularly Ahri and Orianna I guess. I don't know why but my CS earlygame is really my weakest point of league, it makes me upset because I know in sc2 if your early game macro isn't near-perfect you're basically setting yourself so far behind / games can be won thru macro alone.. and I can def see that being the case if you're csing like a Korean on League... but yeah. recently I've been using S more (i barely used it in lane, i'd just move around instead of stopping) and it helps.

There are a couple crutches you can use to improve your CS'ings, from AD runes to Dorans start or else picking a champ that can waveclear or CS easy peasy (Annie or TF for instance).

However, there are definite ways to improve upon CSing beyond simply practice. For instance, to last hit under tower in the early game, 2-tower shots+1 autoattack will kill a melee minion (as towers deal just under half health to a melee minion), while 1 tower-shot+2 autoattacks will kill a ranged minion (if you're playing ADC with AD runes and a Dorans start, this may just be 1 AA). Knowing this formula allows you to prepare minions for last hitting under tower if you need to.

Beyond this, as you're learning, using Stop can help, but moving around between autos is generally how to last hit (because standing still can sometimes be rather dangerous versus skill-shot based chars or certain jungles).

Orianna generally has an easy time CSing thanks to her passive, while Ahri doesn't until she levels up to the point where she can sustain constant wavepush into roam.

Felt inspired by the top post, so here goes my first post in the LoL subforum after lurking for some time.

I'm a fairly new player (lvl 14 or so), and I generally dont have the time to play much, but I've just passed a huge exam, and therefore by some sick design have three months vacation, which means more time to play. I'd like to ask if any of you would play a few games, hopefully pass on some experience and help me learn the game

Also I really, really like Zed's skillset and I was wondering how hard the recent nerfs hit. Is he still a viable pick when I start playing ranked, or would my time be better spent learning someone else to go top with?

Cheers!
