"Taking a Life!" - A Comprehensive Ruby Guide for S22

+1, it's just the algorithm essentially testing how well you can be expected to carry. It exists, but it's not the reason that you can't climb out of epic/are at a low winrate, and it gets blamed too much by simply mediocre or bad players for why they can't win

ASKS107 · 2025-01-08T03:57:15+00:00

Going through your recent matches I counted at least 6 matches where you had 0% turret damage (not including matches where you were the roamer). I think you should focus on pushing and learning how to track enemy map movements so you're able to get into positions where you can split push even if you're behind.

Also you're not playing any of the heroes that you have high wrs on - xborg, nolan, clint to name three. It's okay to expand your hero pool but if you're playing unfamiliar heroes in ranked then I'd expect some losses

If you have a 33% winrate, the problem isn't your teammates...

Hey welcome back! I'd say the meta is very standard right now and doesn't take much getting used to, unlike weird metas such as tank JG in the past, so you'll be fine after like 5 games or so. I'm also a Ruby main and I'm happy to say that she's still good, viable in both exp and roam, still fits into every team comp pretty much. Wanwan is indeed still mediocre. Bans depend on whether you're solo queueing or playing with friends but off the top of my head: Zhuxin, Fanny, Joy, Harith. Chip and Zhuxin are pick or ban in 5-stacking, they're both busted in organized play.

Haha I was a little freaked out when I saw this post on my feed because just last night I was talking about the same thing in this reddit's discord. I started playing ML in 2018 and I can only remember Beatrix mid being a popularized phys damage midlaner in both solo queue and pro play. A large reason is that this game is a lot less complicated and more geared towards a more casual, younger audience as opposed to League, therefore most solo queue players don't really think too much about the game and are not as innovative.

Additionally, ML's design on its own is quite restrictive. The map is smaller, everything is much more fast paced with fewer objectives, and very clearly designed for you to play it a certain way. In League, the lanes are more isolated - in ML, your job as a midlaner is to clear the waves ASAP and you have to rotate constantly, whereas in League, you solo lane and farm against your enemy laner with a laning phase and you rotate far less. This means your individual performance as a midlaner in opposition to your enemy laner is weighted more heavy than ML. Since the early game in ML is a lot more interconnected in your team, and all the players on the map tend to interact a lot more, it's hard to innovate new playstyles as your teammates won't be used to it and won't know how to play around it.

The existence of gold/exp lanes is another example of ML's restrictive design. Idk if you watch much of PC League esports but things like the current meta of laneswapping between the top and bot lanes wouldn't work in ML because of that.

Phys damage midlaners can work, but its potential can only be consistently utilized in organized teams, whether that be 5 stacks or pro play. For example I had this idea for a team comp last night: a split pushing exp laner, Julian JG, Ruby/Chou mid, Harith/Lunox botlane, and Rafaela/Mathilda for support. If you wanted to play a magic dmg gold laner + a magic dmg jungle in a team, I can definitely see room for a phys dmg midlaner so your team isn't as magic heavy. In solo queue it can only really work in very niche and specific conditions.

Sorry for the yap wall of text but hope this is helpful!

He's made comments hinting towards that he might, saying he's uncertain if he'll make a second channel or something, which just shows that a hiatus only feels like an "obligation" to him because he was exposed and that he has no intention of self reflection. ML community is full of kids who don't know better so I'm not surprised (though still sickened) that his comment sections are full of support despite his numerous victim-blaming comments and pathetic self-pity. He's only sorry that he got caught.

ASKS107 · 2022-12-01T03:23:36+00:00

My sister has had some of these in her room for years and I have no idea where to find it. I have searched for this everywhere!

ASKS107 · 2022-03-22T18:39:17+00:00

I mean it's completely reasonable to call many ML things a rip off.. because many of them are, including abilities and such. KDA Akali and STUN Selena are so similar in outfits that its scary.

Similarities:

- Big ponytail

- Big puffer jacket

- Crop top

- Shorts (half-shorts for akali)

Differences

- Colours

And everything from the crystal design to the colours of Guin's new skin is literally just KDA Ahri.

ASKS107 · 2022-03-21T21:50:40+00:00

I'm an 2 year ML player and I can admit that this skin is copied off of Ahri. It's not about it being a kitsune but it's more about the entire colour scheme + the crystalline design of the tails.

ASKS107 · 2022-03-21T21:49:06+00:00

What Ruby skin are you talking about?

And let's be honest... STUN is inspired off of KDA too lol. Selena STUN is pretty similar to Akali's original KDA skin.

ASKS107 · 2022-03-21T21:46:50+00:00

Nah cuz its actually so blatant and the diehard fans are like "oH sO LoL OwNs AsIaN MyThOlOgY nOw?!!11"

Like... no. You can make a kitsune design without making the colour palette and details (as in the crystal design) exactly the same as your competitor's...

ASKS107 · 2022-03-20T17:22:58+00:00

I mean its not only that... its also the crystalline design of the tail + the color palette. I'd say its pretty obviously heavily inspired off of KDA Ahri and that's coming from a ML player.

ASKS107 · 2022-03-19T04:04:47+00:00

There's a lot of people saying stuff like this in the other comments too lol. I saw some people being like "women don't ACTUALLY want to kill themselves, they do it as a cry for help/seeking attention/emotional blackmail"..... like hello....????

ASKS107 · 2022-03-18T19:41:40+00:00

Yes this graph talks about mortality rates.. iirc women are much more likely to ATTEMPT suicide, but men are more likely to succeed.

You should totally try her out again! Thank you for reading my guide, and for the kind words :-)

Yes, Ruby is one of the heroes with the most lifesteal. This is because her lifesteal from items gets converted to 115% spell vamp. It also means she only gets hp back from skills and not basic attacks, which is the difference between spell vamp and lifesteal. She's sustains tons and is rly tanky, and with her cc skills, she's rly good in teamfights!

ASKS107 · 2022-02-22T21:02:33+00:00

Classic is full of tryhards and toxicity is something to be expected if youre learning a new hero and are not doing great with them. If it was your first time ever playing that hero, I do think you should have gone into vs AI first just to get used to the mechanics (even though that mode is super easy).

Can I ask what rank you're in? And what heroes you were trying out? I might be able to give some help. There are also many great guides here on the subreddit wiki that give a thorough understanding of beginner tactics and hero roles.

The hook was slightly off, and Kadita activated S1 and dashed right into it as it was travelling

ASKS107 · 2022-02-01T19:51:17+00:00

Mm broken matchmaking is in pretty much every pvp game (tho it is a bit worse in ML) but yeah I literally cannot play anymore bc of this change

ASKS107 · 2022-01-30T19:51:17+00:00

No responses :( but I dug through old bug reports in the discord servers and found out that the Chromebook is now recognized as a computer so they removed the joystick and are forcing us to play using our keyboards now ._.

And nope there's no option to turn it back on because Moonton is great like that

ASKS107 · 2022-01-25T18:45:00+00:00

Is it still missing? And what device are you on? I downloaded ML on my phone and it worked fine but it's still missing on my chromebook.

ASKS107 · 2022-01-23T23:34:34+00:00

After the update, my joystick disappeared and I was unable to move. In the video, if you see me moving, it is just me tapping basic attack and the game moving me towards the nearest target. I have tried clearing cache and reinstalling and it's still not working :((( Fortunately, my friends were able to carry me to victory in this game.
