I've played so much DOTA 2 this weekend I forgot how to ranked. My last hitting improved atleast?

Also, What do you guys usually ban if you have to in ranked? For my its usually always Amumu, Elise and Blitz or Thresh if I have first pick, otherwise its Elise, Vayne and either Malph or J4.


I ban two 'expected' or 'must ban or be raged at' champs. Seeing as how I'm in Bronze, that is usually some combination of Blitz, Malph, Amumu, or Shen (I've never understood this one personally). Some people also rage if you don't ban Hecarim. My last ban is personal one, depending on how I'm feeling, or if I want to prevent a counter, or I'm just plain sick of seeing a champ.

Recently I have banned Zed, Kassadin, Fizz, Zac, Thresh (when is he going to replace Blitz?) and Kennen. But I really hate Kennen, so that's a hate ban.

I ban Kassadin always, 100% because he always snowballs and wins the game for the other team.
Otherwise I just ban whatever my team asks me to.

Down in silver 5 I ban whatever my team wants 100% of the time, just to lower the risk of someone raging. The last ranked game I played I banned Shen, Trynd, and Malzahar, for example just because our Graves insisted I ban them. Usually though it ends up being some combination of Shen/Thresh/Blitz/Malphite/Amumu/Kassadin/Elise.

Imo the most important thing about banning is reducing the possibility of someone raging that you didn't ban X.

Thresh is so much easier to deal with then blitz imo, fuck that robot.

And yeah, lower elo (silver i am) i tend to just ban the standard picks or i get raged at and things go to shit. I usually try and wing it so im playing against whatevers left open too, so people dont get facerolled / demoralised / mad at the "OP" champ their facing.

League is mentality management simulator im sure of it.

On another topic, how do people deal with playing with friends who are just plain bad? I mean i can deal with them sucking shit and feeding, but the untold amounts of rage about shit that is just plain wrong drives me insane and if i open my mouth it just gets worse with them explaining why im wrong and they are right. How do you cope with that lol.

Since I basically always play Darius I just ban kayle + kennen then ask my team what they want last, I would default to zac or elise last. Then I just faceroll top since they can't do shit about it and splitpush all day.

I honestly think the game is in a pretty decent spot in solo que in that there are no complete MUST bans.

Silver elo is dictated alot by individual play/mechanics/decision making and less on teamwork meaning that champs like Kassadin, Vayne, or even Yi do ridiculously well preying on the inevitable 2-3 teammates that don't know the meaning of positioning/map control. So... yeah, I ban those 3.

Btw would people be interested in a Darius guide from a rising gold player? Or should I wait till I'm pushing Diamond for more pertinent input?

I was trash at this game for a long time but I feel like I've figure out a lot of stuff and turned a corner, partly from reading the TL GD thread at work so often! So I've been playing none stop Darius top and am on an insane streak, steadily burning through gold (in gold 2 promo atm) with something like 15 consecutive Darius wins.

I'm thinking about putting a solid guide together going in depth on matchups and jungler interactions in lane. Also covering the decision making behind when to splitpush / team fight, as well as the basics of itemisation / rune pages etc. It would probably be a work in progress with the matchups when i find time though.

Also I don’t really know anything about formatting thread on here... We all know it wont get read if it isn't shiny and cool looking!

Here is a basic template: www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=245515

If you want to get fancy formatting is pretty easy actually. Click the BBCode button and it will give you a lot of info.

You can also find a guide that you like and quote it to steal the formatting. Give credit where credit is due of course

As far as I know, as long as you mention your league and rank (so lowbies like me can be in awe and high eloers can scoff (but hopefully give feedback)) it is totally fine to make the guide.
The biggest part is being willing/able to update it when it warrants it.

@Whoever was talking about Shyv lvl 2 all in:

EQ = 358 + 8% max opponent hp
WQ = 453

Both assume 4 autos. However, you have to consider that WQ assumes they stood in your burnout for the full duration of 7 seconds.

I want Shyv to see more play.

I generally ban Thresh/Blitzcrank/Vayne/Nunu. Maybe I shouldn't ban Nunu since he's fallen off in popularity so much, but I have too many bad experiences with people who have no idea what to do against counterjungling.

Go ahead. I'm a sucky silver player, but I have the Varus thread.
