Why wouldn't you be able to...?

Because of bad matchups and fitting into teamcomps? I dunno, I've always played 10-20 different champions at any given point and jumping on fotms if I can pull it off and I've steadily improved 1 league per season :>

As opposed to other people who jumped straight to diamond within 1 season :p

Maybe you are

I mean privileged with being good at league, or ability to quickly learn league.

slow and steady gains are so satisfying tho.

Good/bad news for you, Diana's becoming fotm in mid lane again.

Though if tank junglers become a thing again and we get a 3 tank, 2 dps champ meta again she won't be around for long.

I mean, maining one champion per role doesn't mean that you can literally only play them. Not that it really means anything, but I went from bronze to diamond in my first season pretty much just playing one champion per role at a time. But once you've played a champion a bunch and then move on to someone else, you can always go back to them.

Every time I try to play limited pool I just get so bored after 10 games and start playing everything again. Not really worth it to me. Plus there is no champion right now I really enjoy and feel is strong but who isn't meta (and therefore boring). The last champion I really was diggin was Elise right after her first round of buffs. Everyone was like wtf is this melee ranged hybrid shit, and I was just crushing every game on her.

then everyone else realized she was OP as fuck and she got cratered. The end.

AP Kog too, but he got nerfed when he wasn't even getting any real play...very lame.

Now I play Jax, feels very strong to me, but just not that complex of a champion so I get bored.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Yeah I try and limit myself until I feel like something is going to be fotm or is good in the meta (hello support Nautilus how are you today). I've found I've climbed a lot higher while A. Streaming (forces me to rage less) and B. Limiting champion pool and role - I play ~10-15 champions regularly while most are in the duo lane. Managed to get to Platinum 2 in about 3 weeks of returning to serious climbing, where Platinum is also my highest league.

if you don't have any characters that you can play for more than 10 games you could just try playing fewer games per day. but otherwise you just have to grit through boredom for the sake of improvement.

I am literally the worst player I know when it comes to character variety, I think I can count the number of times I've played the same hero two games in a row on one hand, and I've played like 4000+ games

Eh, I feel like I'm still improving.

I play pretty much only teambuilder and get Plat/Diamond borders about 50/50 now. I'm fine with that honestly, I'm not planning on going pro.

Playing less each day doesn't help skills so much either. You lose your feel for last hitting and skillshots the longer you don't play (esp because I smartcast everything). I take time to warm up.

I've been playing a whole lot less than I need to be to keep up skill. Probably will take me a couple weeks to get back to where I feel like I belong in Diamond.

Maybe I just need to find an EST duo partner.

So I decided to try jungling Shen and it worked out pretty well. The early clear was kind of slow but you didn't really lose any HP either.

Yeah, I've stayed topped off in the Jungle before with just a machete until I was 6.

When I jungled Shen I pretty much just farmed until an opportunity to ult someone or a really easy gank arose.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

A faster jungler could back multiple times and finish their jungle item faster, though. Shen's invading / dueling / early ganks are pretty weak, so the problem is that he can't do very much with all of that extra health, especially now that more people have more health after clearing.

I remember it came up a while ago about ashe and how she was bad. But I find her late game super strong. especially for a novice adc I can sit back and kite with my q. poke with W and initiate with my r or peel with it. I feel like the extra range makes we way safer.

I'm not sure if its the champ or just the way I play with her but I don't seam to get blown up as often maybe im further back because I'm slow I'm not sure.

Lane phase however I tend to suck with her, but as long as team doesn't implode, into an 13 year old girl bitch fest the comebacks are real. That late game damage along with the long range stun is a pretty bad ass combo.


I am the exact same way. I lose every lane phase with Ashe. Then I slow farm bot lane and if my team can hold long enough I end up shooting an R, toggling Q, and just pew pew pew for a double or triple and boom guess who is back in the game. So easy to position with her too. I play like such a pussy in teamfights but whatever, it works. The only ADC I play.

I'm surprised Riot after all these years never decided to make the christmas runes that are exactly the same as the best tier 3 runes count toward runes you already have.

Ashe and Cait are the best ADCs for people bad at ADC. I know from experience :I
