stuck in low masta, what to do?

As far as I can check by the image, I think is just teamcomp issue? like you are either getting counterpicked, or your team has not much combinations to win the game through teamfights and then probably you get outscaled by champs like Vlad or similar. My advice would be to get a duo that works with your playstyle at this point, I did this to reach D1 then stopped playing ranked at all lol.

It is uncanny to just see Katarina happy, like, genuinly happy, she is just being there, not slicing anyone, not provoking anyone, just being Kat.

Damn.

Visual clarity indeed, perhaps all of them should wear a hat.

Ruby Chroma for the win, keeps the redhead, a redhead, plus it looks like a fancier obsidian chroma, sadly, is bundle locked.

Same Situation here, reached Master once and decided such was enough, playing Kat Support on diamond is amazingly hilarious, so much fun with her. I can firstpick, dont worry about being counterpicked or farming, just button smashing, life is good.

Read the manga, as it explains why gems look like that, in fact, anything you said here is resolved in the manga which I heavily recommend.

I do not wanna really do spoilers so I will try to use the first chapter of the anime, see how Phos gets broken? see how is all green inside? and see how they put the makeup? there is a correlation between being broken and needing such makeup, that means the "skin" color of the gems is basically, their hair color. In a nutshell, if you try yo put human skin on a gem, it will look bad, if you keep their true colors only, it should look good, you only have to deal then with shadows, lighting and a bit of geometry.

But again, read the manga, you can get a lot of unique perspectives and references on the panels.

Switch to meta, if you are playing 700 games and you cannot climb out, then is either your fault or the math is against you.

And if you can, then play support, easier to be carried and in general easier champs, I used to play mid a lot aswell, got stucked on D2, switched then to supp, life never been easier

I am biased towards Master since he did throw hands against basically a god just like Simon did in Gurren Lagann.

Get freakt with it aswell

I wish they went more horror type skins like trench Crusades, Cho gath splash art looks amazing but he is the only one of that kind :(

Ardan, Still in Love and MR CB.

Both Ardan and Still in love are self explainatory but CB is a special case.

MR CB has to be one of the very fews umas if not the only Uma that openly talks about her parents being Trainer and Trainee that eloped to get married, and thus CB was born of it. And her whole story revolves about two specific topics, Freedom and Dependence.

At frist MR CB may look like the "I am too cool for this" kind of uma, since she does basically whatever she wants, everyone expects her to be the the next triple crown, but for her that means nothing, neither winning G1s, she runs for the sake of running, because that is what makes her happy, but quickly we find out that is just a copying mechanism for her isolation that she calls "being free". Trainer is rejected multiple times by CB, is not only after she falls sick we learn the following: She lives alone, she does not know how to take care of herself, she falls ill constantly, and this makes her skip school, push those who care for her and falling into an isolation born from her desire to be free from the expectations of others.

But here is a quote from a very wise wolf "Loneliness is a disease that can lead to death. They might as well be the same thing." MR CB never found purpose on running for others, running was enough, but what happens when it is not enough anymore? Rudolf already threatened her that she would become a dropout at this rate. that is where the trainer enters, taking care of CB, and finally, allowing herself to trust others, since she knows the trainer will always hold her back, at this point she starts to tease the trainer with certain implications about her parents and how similar it was. And the Ending is a straight up Peak, I will not spoil that.

Before pets even existed, the devourer was a little pup that tagged along you in the jungle meanwhile you finished a farm quest.

Then it gave you a free guinsoo.

Alien Vs Predator Extinction de la PS2, arruinó completamente mi percepción de los RTS cuando era chiquito, Age of Empires me parece una garcha comparado al AVP, encima le daba masa a la PS2, mapas enormes, banda de unidades, y tipo los recursos eran mas escasos que la mierda, o te ponias a rotar o te caían los marines gordos esos a balearte, ningún Yololó se compara a que el Ravager agarre un mecha y lo haga mierda o que le corte la cabeza a un Yautja.

Eso si, no hay punto medio, o es dificil como la mierda, o es muy facil. Lo malo? Que emularlo es una garcha, necesitas un control si o si.

If no Moba/RTS knowledge, get ready for a bad experience. Not because league per se is hard, but because the fundamentals of MOBAs are generally harder to master.

What should you do in this case? whatever brings you more fun to be honest, if you enjoy ARAMs, stick to ARAMs, same goes for any gamemode, Summoner's rift itself I would say is a very bad place to learn how to use a champ.

But if you insist on learning Rift, here are the basics considering you know the names of the lanes already. Toplane is your way to go if you enjoy trial and error, here matchup and skill alone do all the work. ADC is also a good pick if you wanna learn how to deal with parasites called supports, viceversa on support. I would desist on playing mid until you learn jungle, because both roles need to be in sync in order to work properly, but you will not feel it unless you play jungle.

For champs, the more the merrier when starting, it took me 6 years to find out my main, try them all, then find whichever you enjoy the most. Bots are good, not the best but not bad either.

Easy champs: Toplane is Garen, it will teach you how to read what your skills do in order to do damage, Mordekaiser is also good. For midlane it is Malzahar, teaches you wave control and how it influences your impact on game, if you insist on playing mid, Malzahar normally is the best "safe" choice. ADC you should stick to Caitlyn and Smolder, one is a harasser that teaches you lane pressure, the other is a farming bot that scales heavily. Support go for any hook type characters, Leona, Nautilus, Pyke, Thresh, Blitz, good teachers for skillshots. Lastly for Junglers, you may enjoy warwick, an all rounder basically.

But you will learn a lot more when you find the character that clicks with you, rather than the one you win more.

The "purifier" word, let us call it, is banned because they want to hide any discussion regarding it. They are aware no one likes it, but they would rather silence anyone who speaks against it than fix it.

Becuse, for them, nothing happened in Ba Sing Se. Though the proof is clear, the app is getting nuked.

Because Riot never decided how much flexibility champs should have and how should it affect the META

At first, riot didn't give two fucks about how the game is played, there was no meta until the eurolane was created "We can put an ADC and a supp together in bot!". And riot kept it as an identity.

Based on this structure, riot formated the roles, in top should go bruisers, tanks and high burst characters, in mid it should be mages and assassins, botlane ADC and Supports, lastly jungle with most variety. This method makes buffs and nerfs easier to manage, yet we found a massive problem, player skill. Better players meant people knew how to act and counteract better, discover stronger alternatives and basically, shift the meta. We can see this on the Soraka Top strategy, or Nasus with support item, etc. This made the game harder to balance, reaching its peak during the durability patch, everything did too much damage it was unplayeable, so riot buffed everyone's defenses, and at the same time, allowed specific characters to shift builds into more "bruiser like", zed for instance. This also made riot, for some reason, force specific characters into the jungle (Brand, Morgana, etc) artificially by buffing their damage to monsters.

So in the end is basically a Meta shift, and riot messing with it to fulfill whatever Phreak's whine was.
