It would explain a somewhat increased chance of winning, over time, as long as I stay tryhard. It doesn't really explain why I'm suddenly rolling every game without even trying. Honestly its probably just luck. I've had winstreaks before, maybe not as good as this one but pretty close.

I know I'm totally not playing at Plat level atm. Even if I tried.
EUW lagging, some chatrooms and champ select chat not working atm.
I dislike the new mage minions A LOT. I find myself missing a lot of farm because their particles are hard to see, especially as a melee when your model hides them. In return a lot of minions get bursted down seemingly out of nowhere and I can't auto them in time.
I also seemed to get stuck in minions a bunch (played Trundle), but I don't know if it's the lag or if it was the pathing issues that have appeared almost a year ago that are still there, and have become worse from the new map. I kept getting stuck in minions and having to play ring-around-the-rosies.

It doesn't even have to be "boosters" in the true sense. You have more serious people play ranked at the end of the season, since if you were casual all season no reason to randomly jump in, vs strugglers that don't play and then try to go from decay -> rewards in a few hours of play, in addition to one-tier-higher friends trying to move their strugglers up into the tier.
Plus no one know what the fuck they're doing in preseason

Holy shit the lol client is like a dying animal right now. Took ages just to navigate the menus into a game, and it's dragging my whole computer down with it, typing this in slow motion.

ranked is much harder at the end of the season so many smurfs/ boosters that much more luck is involved in ranking up then usual because if one team has booster and other doesn't chances are you play wont impact the game enough either way. I have already seen a couple of ppl with diamond borders in my mid-low plat games falling back down to where they belong.

Played Zac jungle, went 0/21/9 (masteries if that wasn't clear), worked out pretty good I thought. He does pretty decent damage, if you get a strong leash he can often do red/blue, and 2 small camps (one inbetween, and one after), probably 3 small camps if you're super efficient about your blob pickups.

I need to win 4 ranked games to burn my per-win IP boost as efficiently as possible.
Is 21/9 Phoenix Udyr the current brainless jungle? Guessing R>W>R>W(E)>R>E(W) and just power clear from Rock/Glomp up to Glomp/Rocks passing through every camp and smiting on CD?

If you're not scared of going low hp, you can clear without potions. ZAC feels pretty good this patch

how does zac's clear scale with the jungle? the tank and ap jungle items seem really underwhelming when it comes to clear speed as the game goes in my limited experience with them.

His clear feels pretty good if you E max as wel (since W has max dmg dealt to monsters)

yeah i guess the %hp W and the fact that he can freely spam spells for 0 mana puts him in a better spot than other AP junglers.

Hm... my smurf that is on a chat restriction, got the 4 win IP boost for good behavior. TY for the mixed messages riot. LOL

Btw you don't need ranked games...
