If it's prime time on the server and you're getting 15+min queue on your scrub you probably wrecked all the scrubs you have to wait to find 9 other gold+ smurfs to play with | ||

I'm currently like 12/3 win ratio or something. I don't think these guys are smurfs though, most of them are terribad. Might just grind out some bot games or something. (btw Intermediate bots on dominion are frigen crazy!) | ||

This might shock you, but most players are terribad and hence most smurfs are terribad as well, even if they're made by actual lvl 30s. It's been a while since I made a new account but I never had an issue with queue timers. Maybe like 5 minutes at 4am or something. Perhaps the amount of new players is decreasing? | ||

You win too much get too high elo takes a while for the matchign system to branch out far enough that you can get a game. Easiest solution is just duoq with a bad friend or level 30, or lose a bunch of games. I had that problem leveling my smurf. I think unless your Diamond it doesn't get that bad though | ||

You don't need lore to make a TCG, don't be silly All you need is some flavor text maybe and you already have the /j and the /t for those. Soraka [Normal] 80 HP [Normal][Normal] Starcall 20+ If Soraka used Starcall last turn, Starcall does 40 damage, otherwise, it does 20 damage. [Normal][Normal] Wish Remove 4 damage counters from all Soraka and each Pokemon on your bench. Discard an energy from Soraka. Weakness [Fight] +20 Resistance - Retreat Cost * * "Do you always fight so poorly?" | ||

This isn't counting abilities or passives though, as she obviously loses out in the steroids department. But despite having no steroids her damage isn't as bad as it might seem on first blush. Her arrow is like 3x wider than a blitz hook or varus ult though, it's hard to miss if you use it at all thoughtfully She used to be considered a hypercarry at one point. + Show Spoiler + inb4, no such thing as hypercarry in LoL | ||

I use to play a pretty mean Ashe, but late S2/early S3 killed any motivation to play her. She's fairly straightforward in her playstyle (kite, attack-move/orbwalk [ok its not really orbwalking in LoL but still]), though she has a high skill cap to fully utilize, and requires good ADC play (aka positioning is key). It depends on what specifically you're looking for, however. Ashe has a pretty good AA range over most ADCs which you can abuse for free auto pokes (Caitlyn beats her out, and Trist/Kog/Jinx will outscale her AA range as the game progresses), watch and manage your passive to maximize your poke potential, Ashe is hilariously good for level 1 cheese (AA-W-AA is like most of their health at level 1). Also, hit your Rs. Not much else to say unless you're looking for advanced matchup knowledge, lane synergies, and team comps to never pick her against (note: assashuns, and teams with copious amounts of non-MS based gapclosing). | ||

Assist streaks are a little too much, really favors champs like Taric who hit R and get assists for every kill. If Riot bothered programming a proper assist calculator based off of CC/ buff/ damage, it would solve a lot of the complaints about assist gold/credit is allocated. I stand by my assertion there is no point in playing "real" games right now, just play ARAM and All for One. Who knows, maybe even play Dominion. | ||
