My Gangplank streak contines, second account just hit plat. Pirate is too strong.

Except when I face Pantheon. It's like he was engineered to counter me.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

way more than 12m
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

This isn't a recycling bin, folks, this shit goes straight to the internet landfill.


Cold truth.

Dammit, writing a champion's draft when you intend to actually put thought into it and explain why takes so friggin' long compared to spouting random numbers made on the spot to look done.
Pwyff gets my props for getting to word all these PBE changes' context posts.

The more I play the worst I'm playing.. This is very frustrating. I play this game for 2.5 years now (with some breaks) and I'm still in the gold scrub elo
Considering the fact that I managed to reach quite a decent level in both BW and SC2 this is even worst.
Maybe MOBA games aren't for me !
Any advice ? Should I just stop playing lol

when in doubt, focus on improvement, that way it doesnt matter who your teammates are and you don't have to be a little bitch and dodge everytime they don't pick the optimal fotm comp.

Try playing something different from your main what you consider fun.Doesn't matter what.

Success in RTS doesn't necessarily lead to success in MOBAs. Even in "scrub gold" you're better than ~90% of the people on your server.

I was high masters in SC2/B- in BW, but after 2 years of playing LoL I'm still gold I. It's frustrating to me too to not be as good as I was at SC, but it has motivated me to not give up until I'm in diamond so I can feel approximately as good as I was in SC.

GL! Keep going :D.

play to improve and only on your favourite champs of each role (play only your favourite role when possible) diamond players are all trash so you guys are doing something wrong

If league of legends were a course in college, and you were given 4 months to gain rank (starting as a newbie) what mark would be passing? What if you'd played 540 ranked games? (taking advanced League of Legends 3)

More and more, I feel like I should be at gold but the threshold for gold is already the 80th+ percentile.
I pride myself in how I study this game and for keeping up with and understanding it but I sometimes I feel like I suck. If I suck at something that I willingly spend time in and enjoy then does that mean I suck at everything?

Would I do better if I blindly followed guides and championselects?
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.

Given that in my major the important classes require a 70+ to progress, somewhere around SII-III.
