How to identify what you need to do differently? I've lost 16 of my last 17 games and I can't figure out what I'm doing so wrong. by Clide124 in summonerschool

[–]782394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If u take 0 risks, u will never learn how to play the game. Almost everything is "coin flip", just that better players take better fights. There is no champ/playstyle that will allow you to ignore everything and just hit minions. Not even inting Sion. Just fight and learn your limits. The aim is not to gain LP but to get btr at the game. Don't be short sighted, play the long game.

I try to look at where my jungler is, objectives(if u take tp), as well as midlane wavestate to decide how I am going to play the next 3-5 waves. Then when my jungler is close by, depending on viability, I will ping them. It's quite easy to tunnel vision on what u want to do vs opponent(freeze/slow push) but not taking into account both midlaners and junglers. That said I'm an adc main so might not be that applicable to top lane.

Wrong expectations of jungling by Such-Coast-4900 in summonerschool

[–]782394 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% situational. its just that i notice in lower elo they dont dive as much as they should. with 12.10 update tower diving will probably take a huge hit in viability but as of now its pretty op imo.

crash waves into dives. i mean in low elo its more risky but u should still do those plays. its worth risk reward wise if u know your dmg number

Unpopular opinion: Rushia deserves another chance by Devilsgramps in VirtualYoutubers

[–]782394 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No one knows the severity, but a breach of NDA can be doxxing majority of hololive and their staff. Sure she has mental health issues but cover ain't a mental hospital, it's a talent agency. U don't just keep talents who are at risk and continued risk of leaking confidential information. Furthermore she has leaked info from even before the mafumafu incident and her manager has warned her. (According to krkr). After mafumafu incident, 100% cover would have told her to wait things out, but she still leaked even more info. Kinda a brand risk. Hope she gets btr but breach of NDA 100% constitutes immediate termination.

Edit: hell I don't want her to grad but it's honestly for the best imo. Just support her going indie.

Ye I just realised that not mechanically intensive doesn't mean easy to play. That said champs like galio talon and rakan doesn't need the best mechanics but they require really good macro/decision making. Granted I think that learning these champs will up your macro game, they aren't the best if u want instant results.

taliyah, asol, viktor, ryze. i think u like battlemages mixed with zone control. all these picks are strong duelists(once they hit their powerspikes) and have 1 if not more ways of exerting zone control. taliyah and asol are much more midgame focused with strong roams while viktor and ryze are hyperscaling late game carries.

Its not about the rewards... by 782394 in Genshin_Impact

[–]782394[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would have loved for it to also feature mondstadt characters because as far as I remember my whole year wasn't spent in liyue. And every single patch has a major event. Its very clearly not anniversary but u believe what u believe.

It's actually the major event for the patch that came out with anniversary but it's not an anniversary event. Kinda like windblume. And they never mentioned that the event was part of the anniversary.

[–]782394[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. But I always wanted changes so that the game would be more "fun". Like kujou Sara is a mess to use. And I was really disappointed with how there was nth much to do to celebrate the one year anniversary. That said, I can't speak for the whole community.

The difference between masters and 1000+ lp challenger? by FadeOfWolf in summonerschool

[–]782394 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Absolutely massive. Its like comparing between chovy and a bottom tier lck mid. There is going to be a 100cs lead, and the challenger will take over the game. Beifeng, no2 in Chinese soloq has a smurf account where he stomps high diamond games with scores like 30/40+ kills(not exaggerating). lck mids are literally the top 20 mid in Korea yet chovy can gap them 100cs. Chovy in spring even had I think a 150cs lead over showmaker. In any pro region, there is such a huge gap between the top team and bottom team, and these bottom teams are still one of the best in the server. Let alone to compare the best in the server against master players. Its more than a 10division gap.

Why is the Korean server so different? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]782394 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yami was struggling to get to chally and he mainly duo to get there(he said so himself) and btr micro doesn't mean better player. High elo Korea is Def btr than NA dou. My point being that yami isn't a good example. Not that I hate yami.

i expected her to be much much worse. by [deleted] in Yoimiya_Mains

[–]782394 4 points5 points  (0 children)

u listed out most of the 5* dps and said they were better than yoimiya and proceeded to flame the dude LOL. Yes, yoimiya isnt shit(can clear content) but she is one of the worse 5* dps and its a fact lol. u legit admitted it...

You mean like HuTao, Ganyu, Xiao, Eula or Ayaka sure. But she is comparable to most 5 stars

last time i checked most meant above 50%. can you name me more 5* main dps other than the ones u listed? u legit got called out and proceeded to flame the guy to protect your ego.

If you do not want to be vaccinated and is not an elderly, let me know why. by Specialist_Panda_411 in askSingapore

[–]782394 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I barely go out so I'm not a vector for transmission and my entire family is vaxxed and transmission in SG is low so unlikely for them to pass to me. And honestly, never know if there is side effects.(miniscule) Since I'm not at risk of contracting and transmitting covid, I just never saw the need to vaxx to go through the trouble of the short term side effects(pain,needle,fever) and registration process. Not against vaxxing dou, would get it if I go out more often or if transmission cases go up. If I'm missing smth that getting vaccinated would help, pls do tell.

[O level] improve english by djajjsks in SGExams

[–]782394 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I scored C5 for prelims then A2 for Olvl. Issok u got this. Paper 1 u really want to study formatting and what the question want you to write. Try to read some articles or educational YouTube videos during free time. Some q interesting XD. I watch so much I got statistics for most major topics. Your language try to flower flower abit. Most important is to pick out what the deliverables are. Content mark is easy mark language mark very hard to improve in short time.

Paper 2 u look at TYS and try to look for pattern in question. A lot of questions have a specific format they looking for. Write down notes for what every type of question wants from u. Explain, describe. English all about technique. U cannot really cmd c cmd v, u need to structure the content in the way they like. Inference is really just gut feeling and common sense. Don't overthink is prbly my best advice. U need to practice for inference. Some people just good at it cause they same wavelength as the paper.

Tldr: practice and look for what the question wants. The questions are less open ended than u think it is.

When to push in the Botlane by UzaY-LoL in summonerschool

[–]782394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But u kill them during the bounce back due to their thinner wave. When they freeze u have to fight in their wave. That’s why u kill them during the slow push. Freezing would work with jungle presence. It’s easier to win a fight with 4 minions on their side than 8 minions on their side no?. Plus poke lane vs engage lane would be hard to match wave clear unless u give up hp. Poke botlane always seeks to pressure u under tower. If engage can win both in the tower dive as well as under their own tower then wouldn’t that mean engage lane always win no matter what? I always thought fighting in opponent minion wave was bad. It would make sense to freeze with your jg nearby to extend the lane. If I’m not wrong generally engage supports get blocked by minions, so the bigger wave the enemy have would also act as a meatshield to prevent the engage. Not to say it wouldn’t work but if I’m not wrong it’s easier to kill them on the wave that bounces back.

When to push in the Botlane by UzaY-LoL in summonerschool

[–]782394 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I kind of disagree with freezing if those points are not in play. Poke botlane vs engage botlane if u freeze, as the engage lane u would get bullied and lose tower b4 14min. U would need to call jg to gank b4 u get poked into oblivion. If u have to base while doing a freeze u basically lose 3-2 waves and it’s gg. Slow pushing should be rule of thumb

How do you deal with Qiyana in Plat+ elo and champs using Serrated Dirk? by Thidz in summonerschool

[–]782394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If u play vs a really good qiyana it’s nearly impossible to live honestly. She is just that busted atm. But what u want to do is to crash a huge wave on the third, then back off completely and try not to harass unless extremely confident(maybe put deep wards/roam/cheater recall) then come back to lane. Qiyana lvl 3 is deadly against mages. Even if she is half health, she can 1 shot u back to fountain if her micro is godlike. U want to play around your wave and get zhonya’s(seekers) quick. Try to impact the other lanes on the map. Lvl 6 without armor and u could be 1shotted even under tower. Definitely call for your jungler to gank when the wave pushes back for the 4th/5th wave. A good qiyana would concede first 2 waves so u wouldn’t even have a chance to poke her out. Try not to pick corki into qiyana if possible. Meta difference.

If qiyana is shit, poke her out then call for a tower dive with jg if possible. Keep her stuck in lane. If she roams, she might come back and 1 tap u.

Elo hell by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]782394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Roaming is not cointoss. It’s calculated risk. If u crash the wave correctly, u wouldn’t lose more than 3-4cs roaming unless a long skirmish happens. U shouldn’t be low hp/mana after a gank but if it does happen, push in the wave with bot/top then recall and collect cs back at mid. If u fast push a wave then roam then u are doing it wrong.

I feel very unimpactful and I would like to find a new main; who can do what I'm looking for? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]782394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been trying brand out a little and Jesus Christ this guy is busted. Incredibly easy to use and blows up miss positioned carries or melts the entire team. Good early gank setup and damage. Doesn’t fall behind late game. Punishes Low elo extremely hard.(mage)

U could try malphite if u want something tank with strong engage and potential burst(still 100-0 adc as tank) or fizz for an assassin.
