Dearest J. Brundig,

I will totally watch your stream all the time.

Sincerely,

Well, you know

<3 Just streaming for you would make it all worth it.

Did you make a streaming session of AP Sona once or something?

Naw, FakeSteve is the AP Sona GOD(ess?)

Hell, He is also the AD Sona GOD...(ess)

Cant seem to make much of an impact playing toplane after laning phase...Advice?

I tend to win lane or at least go even, even when im ganked often / camped but when laning phase ends im really unsure what to do in the immediate time afterwards. What i normally do is try to keep exerting pressure top and hold my tower for as long as possible while roaming mid / TPing into fights. My understanding is that im denying them gold by holding tower for a long period (and i got theirs during laning) and they have to deal with me / the pushing creeps.

Once things progress into teamfighting and objectives i just feel really obsolete and like im not doing much. I try to keep busy farming / keeping lanes pushed and focusing squishies in fights but at the end of it all its like im doing nothing.

I tend to play shit like renek/ryze/garen/malph. (Also any recommendations on who to add to my champ pool? its outdated af)

Halp?

Until he gets inevitably nerfed gnar is so good and because he isn't esports yet and therefore is rarely banned below the top league, go brutalizer > tank. Getting a hang of the transformation timings is tricky but I personally had very few problems getting the hang of gnar in general. Irelia is okay in general decent enough pick and there's always maokai. Personally I'm a massive fan of jax and kassadin top but maybe they're not for everybody (I never have the balls to blind pick kass top). If you want to be more indie swain, riven and tryn are always good pubstompers.
Based off your champion pool I assume you're more of a straightforward tanky top laner so I'd recommend maokai from my rambling list.

I dunno I would totally have advised against that---even if you DO become successful somehow you absolutely will not reach that point by April.

Depends on how big the investment is. If he dropped everything to do this, then yeah, bad idea. But, if it's just money on equipment, then at worst he's got a sweet gaming rig by the end of this experiment.

Yup I do plan to still work. Ain't quitting mah day job yet guys.

About streaming...there are a million and one people doing the exact same thing you are, a large chunk of those are playing LoL too since its the biggest game out there. Not to be funny but the success stories out there are either due to exceptional skill (e.g. progamers), circumstantial mega-luck (people like summit1g, pewdiepie, nightblue3 etc who are no better than any other streamer who puts real effort into it if you really look at it subjectively) or...boobs.

Good luck and all, but really, without being good enough to go pro or having a pair of boobs to wave around, you really will need good luck.

Yea off what Fusilero I love swain as a counter pick top. Such a strong top laner if he can get free farm early. And go ROA and Zhonyas and your in an amazing spot. I run ignite on him cause I love to snowball off EQ spaming early on. But Tele is also a good choice as it is on any top laner that scales well.

I realize that it is a long shot. But It is a long shot I felt I needed to take cause or regret not taking it forever. And someone one else mentioned. Worst case scenario I'm a bit more in debt but I got a sweet gaming Rig and hell I play league any way for fun so not like i regret putting time into the game.

Oh I meant to link this as well. Its a article on streaming by TrumpSc. He stated that the streaming market isn't saturated yet as it may be in a few years. While league may be more saturated then most games. It is also cause there is a bigger market. I also was planning on streaming some hearthstone.

I also know that I do have to rank up to be able to appeal to most people that watch streams. I have gone as far as diamond 5 last season. I think I can do it again and hopefully go past it. But then again normally i play games on league trying to improve anyway so it kind of aligns my hobby and my goal of my dream job.

Trying to get into other game's beta or alpha (or early release) can grab a ton of fucking views, especially if it's super hyped up AAA title

Whenever I'm ahead in lane I just push without shoving too hard (so it doesn't get frozen on me), then walk down to mid or the enemy jungle to do stuff. If drake is open, or there soon, I straight-up shove and start walking there, pinging it and talking about it in chat to make sure my team knows about it (I'll take some tower damage/lose a bit of cs if I have to turn tail when botlane decides to go shop as I reach mid, whatever).

I'll try to gank mid, especially if they're pushing.
If the team follows/we're globally ahead (happens often when I've already won top and gotten a good timing for my Triforce as Irelia) then I'll just try to force fights by catching people in the jungle or straight-up fighting them (just go on that Ahri mid, she shouldn't be able to 100-0 you and you'll force her back, ult the next wave to heal up and kill the tower), using my power spike to grow the gold lead as much as possible because I'm no good at hard carrying or making big plays with big mechanics in teamfights so I just try to get my team rolling and hope they'll carry me.
If they don't follow or drake is dead I'll usually ward up the area and just shove to the enemy t2. If he left to help elsewhere (or a lane died so they go to drake 5v4) I'll try to kill it (usually can't), otherwise I'll just pressure just to force someone to come and deal with me. My team may not 4v3 off of that, but if I back off and shop after shoving then I won't lose much and I'll have created space for the team (again, more giving them better opportunities to carry than carrying myself, which is "bad").

Apart from when I'm frustrated by luck on my opponent's part, things I'm the most vocal about in chat are buff/dragon timings, TP availability (both mine and the enemy top's), and position of the enemy jungler based on experience/timing/where and when did we last see him, etc.and I try to direct the flow of the game based on that when one lane doesn't get an obvious advantage.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Very true If you guys see anything like that Please Clue me in. I don't keep up with new titles like that for the most part.

Oh here's something that I would like some advice on. I have ADHD. I struggled with it undiagnosed for a long time. However I have been trying to cope with it and knowing what it is huge for helping treat it. The reason I mention it is because I plan to write an "About me" that really goes into depth. I plan to mention my buy the computer for 1300 on my credit. Mention my ADHD as it is part of me for better or for worse. Mention why i love league and make it personal.

As I feel that is how streamers do well. If you feel like you know a streamer. EVEN if you never meet them it can create a bond or a sense of community. I know it sounds a bit creepy but it is scary how true it can be IMO. Like people follow actors not just because they can portray a character well but also cause after seeing them on the screen for so long hearing there interviews and following there social media they feel like they actually know this person and the become a "fan" of them

We can also see this sort of interaction in the gaming community with PewdiePie and his BroNation. Or Phil Defranco with Philed in or I love your faces or Nation, Or Tobuscus with if you sneezed in this video bless you and your face. They treat the audience like they know them and in turn there audience feels like they know these people.

Anyway looking forward to your guys feedback.

How is it decided if you are a Leaver or not? Just had a game where I took an action in the last minute or two of the game, but counted as Leaver because I was DCed when the Nexus exploded. Is it as simple as that, a last second DC and you're SOL?
