Which hotkey do you use for the attack move command ? The default settings dont seem to cut it for me. I'm thinking I could try to use "Q" for the auto and then W E R T for abilities, since I have been using Q to auto attack for a very long time on SC2, but I'm wondering if there is a way to have a good attack move shortcut while keeping QWER for the abilities.

Same here. Using A is nice. I used to use mouse left side button but using A feels better because you can take your mouse with a firmer grip.

I already posted this on the brag post, but I want to talk about something else here.

So, long story short, I FINALLY got plat 5 on my smurf. It took me a lot longer than on my main. Some comparisons and why I think this is happening:


Main account: 78 W, 65 L (143 games, 54.5% win rate)
Champions played:

Smurf account: 145 W, 122 L (267 games, 54.3% win rate)
Champions played:

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


It took me 120 more games to hit plat on my smurf. I think a lot of it has to do with the lack of game contents on my smurf. On my main account, I have 60+ champions and 15 rune pages. In particular, I got a lot of support champions on my main account and I have support rune pages. For a long while on my smurf I lacked good supports (I had to play Janna and Sona for the most part - and I did mediocre on both - which is exacerbated by my lack of dedicated support rune pages), no ADC rune page, and almost no top laners to play.

One major issue I had on my smurf was that I had no Leona. This hurt me a lot as I was often forced to play Janna against some really crappy match ups (I had to play Janna vs Sona in one game because I honestly had no other options left).

TLDR: I think this game is not pay-to-win, but if you pay more to unlock game contents, you will have a far easier time winning and you can reach your goal far faster.

I use A and I also binded my items for z/x/c, so I just hold my ring/middle/index on a/s/d and then move my hand whenever I want to use f/g/v, qwer or 1/2/3/4. I also use the smartcast-autoattack instead of the regular cast autoattack, so I pretty much use my mouse exclusively for moving.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

Could also be your pre-existing mmr + placement that is causing a difference. A lot of things go into this. Also, you may or may not excel at playing vs certain players. For instance, when I duo queue with a gold player and get plats on my team, I for some reason never do well (probably because I don't lead) and end up with a 50% win rate or lower. When I queue by myself my win rate is probably around 60%+. Although I have realized it's probably because I play stupidly aggressive, get ganked a lot and always tend to go even drawing a lot of their jungle pressure and then have my team win their lanes with our jungle.

My placements were coincidentally similar for both accounts. Through a series of bad luck and dumb plays, I landed in Silver 2 for both accounts.

Those silver games were some of the hardest I had to play. After I hit high gold the game actually became a lot easier for me.

Perhaps, but I think I can hit plat 5 with just 1 runepage and 14 champions, it just comes down to having a roster of champions who work in the current meta.
Hey! How you doin'?

If you are Diamond, then yes, you can do it with ease.

But when I am roughly plat-5 material, it's a lot harder when I am missing a lot of the game contents. I still made it on my smurf, but it took me an extra 120 games. That's like what, 70 hours?

I've been plat since s1, I've never hit diamond. Your runepage being unoptimized would suck but if you had 10ish meta champions then you have a decent shot at being able to get to close to your actual skill level.

I've gotta say that even if you don't have a tier 1 meta champ, having an overall good champ for a particular role also helps.

Like Vi is not a current meta champ, but her ganks are so strong that in yolo Q you can tend to get away with it.

It's not hipster per-se, but it is about having a "pocket champ" that you can pull out to leverage your skill on that champ against the enemy team.

I just wish I could still call Riven my pocket champ for top lane. The hp/5 nerf to her was INSANELY overhanded, like you can't run her without a specific rune page, which I don't have the time/money to make.

I think Skarner is probably worse than before as well.

They bodied Skarner...

Moving his slow to his E should have meant big buffs elsewhere. It didn't, and now he is just mediocre.

the skarner rework is a disaster not on a power level, its a disaster because they didnt even make him more fun to play, probably less fun to play. you still just spam all your skills and either are stronger then them or weaker then them and some one wins in 1v1. in a teamfight you run at the other team and die immediately because you have no ability to tank anything and your base stats suck dick in addition to that.

This true yes, but he is also just bad. He has literally zero staying power.

Make his E a 700 range line skillshot and the first champion it hits he's teleported to, bam, more fun to play.
