If I link my stream here, (if that's kosher) would anyone be willing to watch and offer any general advice to my play? Just promoted to Silver IV and looking to get to at least Silver III today.

If we're talking about hardware/peripherals, can anyone recommend a decent cheap controller?

i finally hit silver I promo into gold
my winrate skyrocketed after i got a new computer
do you think new hardware helps your record? i know on elophant or somewhere, they mapped that challenger tier players have the lowest ping by far, on average. perhaps having a higher framerate helps too?

for record, since lol's inception i've been playing on a piece of shit dell that gave me ~30fps on lowest settings. on my new computer i'm getting 240 fps on max graphics. now obviously your eye can't even distinguish that many frames past a certain point and whatnot, but it certainly seems to have helped somewhat

protip: don't put short time constraints on your goals unless you're like a diamond smurf. it'll just put you on tilt if you have a few bad games.

Hardware helps to a point. Higher character detail helps you see skills coming and higher FPS allows you to react faster up until the refresh rate of your monitor.

Not much point to going anywhere beyond 120 fps though if your monitor supports even that..

I barely notice the difference from 30. I do have lag spikes every few minutes that are really annoying and of course low ping helps. You can't get good without skills but the hardware helps. [image loading]

Then again in M5's heyday I hear they played in like 200 ping.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

IIRC hardware helps a lot for csing because the ranged minion projectiles now move per-frame rather than every X frames when a setting goes up. Not quite sure which setting that is, but it's a big deal.

think he means 60 fps is all you need. there is a slight difference going to 120 but that just makes it seem a bit smoother. much more noticeable when playing fps though

Dont know about cheap (probably inst) but the PS3 controller works really well and can function with any 360/Microsoft game. The ps3 controller is almost half the price of the 360 so my recommendation is there. I'd say logitech are good but they are probably higher price

Lol. Isn't that just an argument for double AD being strong?

I have never had even decent internet to play this game. Doesn't matter what service I have, 500ms pings at least 7-8 times per game, and sometimes it doesn't come back down. I need to get the hell out of Massachusetts.

If the other AD is splitpushing though, I think that Rammus would excel at 5v4 fights at the enemy tower because of his burst tankiness and structure DPS. In 5v5's it really depends on the rest of each team comp -- I doubt an anti-carry would be inherently bad against a team running two carries.

Not really. Double adc has its weaknesses. They're extremely vulnerable to well played aoe cc comps in the beginning of late game. They can be shutdown by tankline splitpushing with stuff like shen. Poke comps are insanely strong as well.

Well, your stream is not online. Also, generally i'd say try to upload replays instead, as people can watch them on their own time instead of yours. I think we had a thread for that at some point, but i don't know if that one has disappeared.

I'm just saying the point of double ad is that if 1 gets locked down you still have another. The fact that Rammus can only like down 1 is the point of the comp. I guess Guys like Malphite and ZAC can lock down more, but they are better than Rammus vs. any comp, not just double AD.
