i get that most league players emphasize maining only 1 or 2 characters and roles but amumu and katarina are so insanely team reliant id imagine you have been frustrated many times by an unresponsive team when you get a money ult or other related situations and u get no followup and hair pulling commences
definitely recommend learning some strong top laners that can just split push literally all day and force 2-3 people to stop you, even the dumbest of teams can react off th

I don't think they are actually that team reliant, beyond basic stuff like not getting caught (which is universal).

Now I am sure if you are diamond you will make the same argument about me, and that's fine. But it feels so frustrating to play at gold 5 on my smurf because when I make calls my teammates either:

1. Do not listen. Because they rather sit idly and do nothing instead of taking the advantage of seeing two opposing players at bot and take baron.
2. Listen, but executes very badly. Because they do not know how to properly bait/towerdive/etc.

At the end of the day, it's still my fault. Beyong playing Katarina and Amumu, I am not really good at other champions (I think I am decent at TF, but TF is still a bit weak and I am rusty). I also play too conservatively and often do not carry very hard (again, unless I am playing things like Katarina). I think if I can get to plat 5 on my smurf without playing those 2 champions, it would be a huge achievement for me... I am not sure how long it'll take though.

Eyyy I play Katarina and Amumu as my mains (:

I wish people would build Athene's more often on Twisted Fate. It's actually a decent item on him (currently I like it as a second item). You don't need to build it every single game, but I think it's a good consideration especially when your team has weak engage and you need to be able to poke.


+ Show Spoiler +
Yes, you, cowTard. Void Staff was a terrible second item on Twisted Fate. In fact, you had very little mana at almost every single point of the game. Sometimes you couldn't even do a QW combo after R.

I find people will most of the time chill on that if you ping a line of "OMW"s down one of the other lanes. Draw the line for them to follow.

Dont chat. Smart pings. Treat them like infant children. Make a line of "HEY! OVER HERE!" and it's pretty hard to miss. Nothing is 100% and some people will still just charge down mid, but a good majority of the time they just need someone to paint it out for them.

I think riot should create a PSA saying "you should push other lanes if mid inhib is down"

nearly all my games when im winning involve us repeatedly trying to bruteforce down mid despite inhib already being gone.
its like continuously trying to ram your head through a brick wall, but it eventually works since its soloq.

It's worse when their conclusion after the 5th failed time was that they need to baron.

man, seeing this champ diversity video about lcs, really exemplifies how shitty the champ pool for s4 has been.

though i disagree with his analysis that clg/tsm/c9 have small champ pool (imo it represents the fact that they had no problem transitioning with the meta from before, to the current meta now, shows they have a solid champ pool).

I think people were spoiled by Faker playing 15+ champions in his first 20 pro games, or something like that. It's like, if picks are there that they've already shown and a team doesn't feel the need to bust anything new out, why should they? Bjergsen was sitting on his Syndra for almost the entire split.

That's insulting please don't ever compare any LCS player to Mushi.

I have an idea Sufficiency.

Since I'm now a legitimate gold player who carried himself through promos, I will duo queue with you and you will have a reliable Miss Fortune ADC to count on for Baron calls and other objectives.

It just makes sense.

I live by the "Ping til the system won't let me anymore and take the execute to make them learn" philosophy.
