Looks like we're back to status quo. Hope more of you lurkers unburrow and talk with us. :3 If you have any issues or comments about the new design, feel free to PM Neo. |
So in like an hour n a half me and a bunch of friends are supposed to be sitting down and having a night of drinking and LoL.
I hope this shit gets resolved by then because otherwise Q.Q, teamspeak and drinking isnt half as fun, you cant play drinking games lol.
Also, recommended LoL drinking games?
So far we've got.
First death - Shot. First blood - Shot. Worst score - Shot Best score - Shot. Worst Random (ARAM) - Shot Best Random (ARAM) - Shot.
Thats 6 shots per game with a maximum of 3 per person. 10 shots if we play customs. I suppose thats actually enough to get us wasted over a good few hours with normal drinking and our tendency to just be "fuck it, shot."
Played a good one with my bro a couple weeks back where we drank everytime the LCS casters said something retarded, but theres no LCS and we're playing instead of watching today lol

Either way Brandon Beck and Marc Merril probably ballin like crazy after that deal. I can't remember where I saw this source, but it's been claimed that Tencent WANTS a more hands-off approach to Riot, letting Riot do what they want because it works. They could if they wanted to, though.

As long as you assume that the matchmaking does not have a grudge against you, if you are better then the elo you play in, you should eventually ascend. Can you prove me that the chance that there are feeders in your ranking team actually follow a normal law if you play enough game, and not a heavy tailed distribution ? How random is random really. Just trolling but I didn't see him saying that the elo system is good or bad, he was implying that the ranking system does not permit him to improve. When you are too tense about your play and your position in ranked, it's really hard to improve. It would actually better if people gave their perspective on what is the best way to improve in LOL because from my perspective it's way more difficult than in other games. I improved a lot going from Silver IV to Gold II in a few weeks playing a few number of champions. Then I hit a wall and now I'm back to sucking. I would actually take any advice on how to get better at this game.
1. First off, stop measuring your preformance based on your elo or ranking or points or anything. This could be slightly random and doesn't represent how well you played.
Measure your performance ONLY on a game by game basis. If you do good and your teammates do good you didn't do that well because it was an easy game. If teamfights did badly and you still have a positive score chances are you played well so good job there, but you still made mistakes maybe you could have even snowballed the game if you could help your team when you got ahead.
2. Pick a champ to get good at. If you get bored of him it means you aren't being critical enough. Every single game you lose was your fault, it could have been won, (very rare exceptions), and if you can't visualize how you could have won if you played "perfectly" you need to think harder. If you can't get the champ you want you obviously play something else and try to do the same with that one but if you pick support lulu to get good at even if you are first pick you should be picking lulu.
3. Every time you die recount back to every mistake that led to you dying. Figure out why you made the mistakes and try to reform your view so you don't do it again.
The good thing about this is that you have no more problems with feeders and trolls or afks or whatever because it doesn't affect your preformance, only your results, which you shouldn't be worrying about.

Why is EUW so trash. It boggles my mind how Riot can just neglect the server issues for so many YEARS.
|
I've also fallen into the trap of wanting to win more than improve. Don't know when my priority shifted but I think that's the most important aspect to get right in order to really enjoy yourself. When you only care about winning you will get frustrated quickly because well you just can't win every game but you can try improve in every game.

Problem is servers were splitted so this wouldn't happen but east is just terrible compared to west.Like there is absolutely no reason to play on east other than you don't feel leveling a new account or getting rp to switch.

Been trying to get back in for... half an hour? Still over 20k in queue.
|
You can get free condoms from clinics, riot dont need to supply those lol

Like in dota we have the custom game, with enable cheats level up etc and see how the build feels. Is there something like this? no. there isn't.

i heard Chinese fans saying that team China will beat NA in 15 minutes -_-
team NA will prove a lot of people wrong.

team NA will prove wrong a lot of people. So you mean NA is capable to lose in 10 minutes?

Enigma item changer is still a lot better than Riot's. You can copy builds and organize by champion type (bruiser, jungle, etc).
But then again selecting in game is pretty good. This is hard.

Item changes in these PBE notes look real neat.
Especially interesting are the changes to starting items. Being able to start boots+4 pots, or boots+2pots+ward, or dorans ring+2 pots, or dorans shield+1 pot. V. interesting.
