Updated TL LoL policy in regards to the use of "lomo"

In regards to theorycrafting and hyperbole, please have firsthand experience of the scenario before giving your input

Well the second could be just having a shit team at sieging and being vs ziggs/thresh/cait or something like that.Requires a lot more coordination to push through than to just hold.

So seems like NiP is already a cut above the rest of the challenger scene after adding 2 completely new players to their roster not even 2 weeks ago. Well I guess having Alex, who's a proven beast and K0u, the best rookie jungler kinda helps in that regard.

that's unsurprising to me. the gap between LCS quality teams and challenger teams is huge. NiP is definitely LCS quality and Alex is easily one of the best mids in EU with extensive experience at the highest level of play.

Most of the time those guys will still go outside their base and then you kill them and get an inhib anyways.
Even in LCS people do that shit.

It helps if you say what the spoiler tag is for, so people know whether they can click it or not~

Lots of people don't know how to close out games and that's their biggest weakness. Instead of going for inhib #2 or ending when they have a chance they go and do whatever else it is they feel like doing because they don't see the checkmate and then end up losing when the 0-10 vayne on the other team reaches 200 farm and gets a penta.

There are two different kinds of "10-0 carry-the-game" kinds of scenarios here that I don't think people are specifying.

There's the "I'm 10-0 but the rest of my team's tempo is shit so I'm doing well but we're not winning". And there's the "I'm 10-0 and our whole team is doing well but we can't actually break base and win the game".

You're right, but my point is that basically all scenarios in League can be thought of as a practical extension of basic game sense. It's not hard to understand the basics of this game and they will carry you very far. In fact I'd say the upper limit of where you can climb in the ladder almost perfectly correlates to how well you understand the game.

All of the other stuff that's not basic game sense comes into play at the pro/team level where you're thinking about the meta-game (and I mean that in the denotative sense). Literally thinking about the game of playing the game. That's well above and beyond soloqueue. Soloqueue is nearly 100% about basic game sense.

Been playing on my smurf recently in high gold/low plat, and people have no idea how to end games. No concept of keeping waves pushed, pressuring areas of the map, how to split, get picks, etc. If it's anything other than "Group and push mid" they just seem lost. Just these relatively simple things go so far.

I wasn't aware your initial quoting of my post was an agreement with what I said. That wasn't so clear to me by the content of it, I apologize if we were saying the same thing without me knowing it.

I honestly cannot think of a more ridiculous discussion.

The last 5 pages is essentially "macro harder, micro faster".

actually probably the most important discussion we've had in forever when it comes to improving your game

Tier lists are so weird, RoG/Stonewall has Zac listed as a T1 AP Damage jungle (what?) and a T1 tank jungle. Did I miss something recently?

Stonewall's an idiot and his jungle tier list are completely irrelevant and useless.

My guess on what people really mean when they say "bad at carrying" is rather "bad at teamfighting" and/or "bad at making lategame decisions."

Pretty sure the only time tier lists were relevant was like pre s1.
they're beyond stupid and worthless now

His tierlist has so much "information" that it's useless.

I rather see a chart of win rate per champion for the league I am playing in.
