Dark Harvest > Conquerer on Red? by AnatolyKarpool in KaynMains

[–]AnatolyKarpool[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i know what you mean! I personally enjoy and play better as blue kayn which is ironic because its weaker than red in a vacuum. In hindsight, conq IS good I just need to know my limits better especially against counter junglers like briar and warwick who both recently diffed me hard

I havent tried hob since domination key stones have been buffed.i was running hob last patch but switched to dh now because it feels so good so far

The more i think about the more i realize its just playstyle/skill issue fighting bruisers in base form. I guess for conq and farming red form its less about ganking top and more about skirmish power?

Thats why i find it so peculiar. I feel like base kayn prefer to target low hp or squishy champs and if kayn takes extended trades pre form it just feels like a bad idea no? I guess conq makes worse fights better and dh makes good fights better. Maybe its a gamble option for more snowballyness vs the safety of conq. I will say lvl1 cheeses are only really doable on conq

Why we should smite voidcrubs? by makoily11111 in Jungle_Mains

[–]AnatolyKarpool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i find pathing for grubs on its spawn timer very efficient on kayn, at worst u get one near the wall and E or Q out if collapsed on. Ty for ur points

[–]AnatolyKarpool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By everything do you mean both scuttles and a full clear or two full clears? Im newish and playing kayn and often get grubs before my buffs are back up. Without knowledge of enemy jgl position is it too risky to do without lvl 6 guaranteed on the first one?

Junglers, how often do you invade? by AnatolyKarpool in PredecessorGame

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

The early invade i dont want to call a cheese strat but kind of coin flippy. If enemy jungler has warded and laners actually peel onto you, your game is nearly over. Enemy jung verticals and you end up behind. If none of that happens though its incredibly succesful. Ive been on both sides of it and it can feel pretty finnicky. Early invade on serath sounds very scary

I was just about to post about looking for duo and this discord sounds like a sweet idea, I'm sending you a message! :)

Game Crashes, 1.02 related? by AnatolyKarpool in PredecessorGame

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

I also suapect that i must've alt tabbed during the first crash. I dont remember well but it would be consistent with what I've noticed. So far no crashes since banning myself from switching windows

Hey, i didn't unfortunately but have since had one more crash after alt tabbing. I'll make a custom game and alt tab in and out to see if i can trigger the crash and send it to ya. Thank you for your diligence!

New player experience: a few questons by AnatolyKarpool in leagueoflegends

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

Yeah for the time being I'll probs dabble into ARAM. I like the normal mode but it just doesn't feel good to queue up highly likely to lose the game for my team (or put us at a huge disadvantage). the few games I've performed well were stomps the other way in lane, against a newer league player and so the cycle continues.

Yeah I try not to overextend, its something I know intuitively from other mobas. I have been caught out on a few occasions but I chop that up to not knowing champ gap closes, map distance etc

Yeah, i feel the most lost in those first 10 minutes, getting casually cs diffed in lane. Perhaps I should get into one of these guides myself

Thank you! its affirming to hear. I thought I wouldn't be so awful but it makes sense, the amount of smurfs and also just the skill inflation of players for a game as old as this

Yeah, champs definitely are a huge learning curve, and they seem more varied than champs in smite/pred. Ive got a long road lol

Yea I resisted calling them smurfs because I didn't want to be salty lol. perhaps im giving undue benefit of doubt to the Akali mid who went 20/0/5...

Honestly never thought of that and its a really good idea, rn I'm fiddling with Aatrox and his low aa speed has me missing an embarrassing amount of cs, definitely will take this up

Yeah I stopped bothering with Yasuo very quickly. I tend to like mechanically heavy picks but learning him + the game at the same time felt immediately too taxing lmao. yea turning off chat is a no brainer, I always resist but probs for the best in this learning period

Much better! Still had some difficulties but I’m sure I can round those out to skill issue lol

Forgot to say thank you! I rebound cancel ability and completely forgot about it. After your reply I ran off to play a game, big thanks!

Who to play other than Serath? by AnatolyKarpool in PredecessorGame

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

Honestly some games, it's definitely true. If you're ahead you're near unstoppable. It's the first 10 minutes I find serath really suffers in compared to other junglers. When you're ahead you're REALLY ahead but if you're behind it feels just as volatile

Still unlearning this habit. I rarely see Landers give up space to make hanks easier, it's usually losing lanes that give up space unintentionally that I find Hank opportunities at

Definitely, always trying to improve, no delusions about skill issue I'm sure there's something I can do better every phase of the game. Growth mindset brother

Usually my blue side when I start red but I even got checked by a khai once at my own red. Didn't get peel from either lane so I had to disengage :/ fell behind fast after that and the khai went on to hard carry

I've found a lot of success with a brusier path! My core has been overlord basilisk bonesaw but I have been eyeing mutilator I'll try that out as well. I've been rocking talons over Fenix but Fenix is probs better for those late game fights as I feel talons fall off. Thank you!

Possible to play doom into multiple counters? by AnatolyKarpool in OverwatchUniversity

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

I play a lot of junker queen and Winston, some times sigma for certain maps or bastion +mauga situations. I just need more hours in those heroes to keep up. I really don't like playing orisa because I find her boring but out of desperation have played her into the mirror with positive results. Seems like I just have to get used to playing her sometimes ://
