I have a hypothetical question.

If a guy was at 180 wins 3 months ago and Gold 5, then all of a sudden 3 months and 60 wins later he is Diamond 5, how likely do you think he got boosted?

He is very inconsistent when it comes to applying early pressure for the champions he plays and, most notably in the playoffs, has absolutely awful smite control.

Being on an elite team doesn't make all it's players elite at their positions.

Being down gold isn't a joke game. It's being behind. Pretty sure it's because lots of them play in PC bangs so they don't want to draw out games since it's costing them money.

5k before 20 minutes is like 80% chance to lose the game. In competitive it's like 90%.


Is this an actual stat for solo queue?

Decent, not impossible though. I went from Gold 5 to Plat 2 in 2 months i believe with not many more wins than that. (Unless my memory is failing me).

Hard to say. I did silver 1 to plat 3 in one month and about 30-40 wins in season 2. Which is almost the same jump. Just took some dedication to get better.

But in general if seems pretty likely. Check him again later and see if his opponents have regressed

Pretty damn likely. He'd need to have like an 80% win rate or something. If you get +25 LP per win and don't skip any divisions, you'd need 62 straight wins to go from G5 to D5.

I found Amazing's early game satisfactory in all the games I watched

Can anyone tell me where all the true damage is coming from in this game? As I see it, Lucian and Nasus shouldn't have done any true damage at all, Zed and Kha'zix should not have done true damage to minion/monsters/structures (their only source was Ignite) and Leona shouldn't have done true damage to champions (but Face of the Mountain explains the true damage to minions). Yet all of them are listed as having done small amounts of true damage to both champions and non-champions.

EDIT: Probably red buff.

Getting into some ARAMs from an invite and having to deal with shit like Ziggs, or Gnar (manaless, no cd) + Janna + Urgot + Cass + Teemo, is one of the most cancerous ways to get back into the game after a 2 weeks break, I've found. :|

People are taking ARAMs way too seriously. Also, feels like playing against bots.


You'd be surprised at how many aram-only accounts there are. Personally I find the all bruiser arams the most fun anyway.

LCS teams are like vultures picking the bones of the players that got popular early on in leagus history, while in korea teams seek new talent regularly. riot doesn't like a lot of roster changes as players leaving the scene may take fans with them, so the rules prevent turnover at a high rate, and everyone just takes each others scraps. to fill holes. no development of new talent happens in NA anyway, so whats the point of limiting imports if there is no NA development either way.



Look, SKT picked up Faker and his crew and all of a sudden they are world champion in ~1 year. While Faker's talents are definitely there, his crew were just that, Korean Challenger soloQ players. SKT built this team from scratch and became a winning team.

C9 is pretty similar to be honest. Someone assembled a team of Challenger players with very little competitive experience (what the fuck was Meteos doing before C9?) and made it the undisputed best team in NA. C9 didn't win World's (and probably never will), but C9 definitely demonstrated that NA has good players out thee.

C9 was a freak accident imo, they just happen to have extremely good team chemistry. Their team individually aren't that amazing.


Sneaky, Balls and Meteos are all top 3 players at their positions.

TSM: Dyrus, Bjerg, Lustboy, all best in position. WT is a fucking dice roll which shows up, Amazing is middle of pack.
LMQ: Ackerman (top 2-3), Noname (either a god, or retard, still not sure), XWX #2, Vasili #1, Mor is top 4.
C9: Balls (3rd, but not significantly better than 4th/5th), Meteos #1, Hai's like 5th or 6th best midlaner, LemonNation is mediocre, and Sneaky started off being the Cop of LCS, probably #2-3 now.

No name is trash, balls is a lot better then dyrus and mor is about as good of a support to vasili as space is an adc to madlife. And I am wondering if you ever actually watched a cloud 9 game if you think he is 5th or 6th. If you want berg and xyx 1 and 2 I'll give you it cuz hai champ pool is smaller but who else in na is better voyboy? I don't think so

Balls continues to be the most overrated toplaner in na history. Or Dyrus the most underrated im not sure.
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.
