If you can't play at least 3 roles at whatever level you think you are, you're not that level. Ideally you should play all but one or even every role. If you can't get carried on your worst 2 roles, you're not as good as you think you are. i don't agree totally with this even if you only win exactly 50% of the games on your other roles, playing your main role means that you gain elo because you'd have a >50% win rate

I'm a silver level everything but support, yet I'm in platinum. Does this mean my support is diamond level?
I'm just wondering if the reverse is true, that by having my other roles so bad and only one role good then am I currently ranked where I am because I have the support skills of a diamond level player?

Just had the pleasure of being recipient of toxic premade in normals.
Deliberate trolling then they try to convince the other side that im the one trolling and to report me @.@.
Am not concerned however, its quite obvious to any riot person who looks at the team chat as to what was really happening.

This was was really cool, I liked how they incorporated a little bit of lore into it. I didn't realize his shield was an unbreakable door haha.

Yeah, his shield is a door that he "borrowed" from Lissandra after digging through a mountain WITH HIS BARE HANDS to save a kid trapped in a vault Lissandra had buried in the Frejlord mountains (the door was a trap door that locked the kid inside).

Regarding the "getting better" discussion:
About ten years ago I was still heavily into BW. I sucked though. Around that time I started taking driving lessons for my drivers license. And what do you know, after about 3 lessons I noticed something odd: My awareness skyrocketed.
So yeah, the "fastest" way to get better is probably to crosstrain a vital skill using a method that is way better for it than trying to improve it by grinding it out in the environment you actually want to use it with.
Something similar happened when I picked up meditating about a year ago. I find that teamfights are much clearer to me now. Within 2-3 weeks team fights wouldn't stress me out anymore, I could take a mental step back and observe the whole battle field without feeling rushed to do anything.
Just my 2 cents though.

Just my 2 cents though. Personally to get better at broodwar i had to force myself to do things i didnt want to do even if it meant i was losing more games, like making myself macro actually using all my units scouting actively, expanding etc.
best way to get better is to start putting things into action like roaming or csing better or whatever you want/need to improve on

Braum's passive... I can't even begin to describe how imba it's going to be, hahaha. First impressions ofc.
|
My understanding is that only he deals the extra damage with his passive... so it is not TOO bad.
On an unrelated note, i previously thought he could only W to champions. With W castable on minions he feels a lot better. I can definitely see the playmaking potential with him. He has the potential to be the next Thresh.

At least his ult doesn't apply stacks of it, that'd be some funny shit.

In the video they also showed him self casting W to just stat boost himself like Lee can with Safeguard.

Stunning the entire team twice is definitely a great idea.

Braum might be an RP buy. Skin kinda sucks though.

His W is really just Safeguard rehashed. Is there any real difference? The red skin is kinda meh. Regardless, I feel like Braum will be Thresh status np.

So, pantheon ult nerfed in 4.7 right? It's not a bug?

Nerfed how? There's nothing in the patch notes.

Braum looks like a champ who'll always be at least a "tier" higher in competitive play than lo solo Q imo.
|
I don't think Braum will be that op, op passive notwithstanding.

holy crap braum's kit is SO OP
