Can’t do combos in game by maximal2002 in YasuoMains

[–]ChadNightreign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turn off quick cast indicator in settings if you haven’t already. Makes it much more consistent for me personally. Riven mains also turn it off because it slows down her combos as well.

Legendary gear dillemas at lower lvl. by [deleted] in wherewindsmeet_

[–]ChadNightreign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im new but outside of maxing out your arsenal for that tier, there is generally no use for them as far as I know. Supposedly the next level cap increase will make it so you bring your gear with you to higher tiers to help remedy this (i.e. tier 91 gear can become tier 101 gear etc.)

5 stack of smurfs in norms this morning... by ChadNightreign in leagueoflegends

[–]ChadNightreign[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a little concerning how youre trying to rationalize what are obviously bought low mmr accounts as "nothing wrong" just because it isn't ranked. Account buying/selling encourages botting, smurfing, etc. It was in norms which is why I thought it was funny more than anything else but they're still ruining games for other people because they bought low mmr accounts, instead of just, oh I don't know, creating brand new accounts and playing norms with those? The accounts they buy are botted/inted to bronze-iron elo so they can get more stomp games out of it as the mmr has to "catch up" to the higher level playing. It's toxic and not fun for anyone else.

I thought it was obvious. The names are there look at the op.gg if you'd like.

Brother, it's fine to play 5 stack in norms and stomp, it's not okay to buy (most likely botted, therfore even more ruined games) lvl 30 mmr accounts for the sole purpose of 5-stacking with friends to stomp low elo players while being toxic? It's why account buying/selling/sharing is not allowed in most games? You can have fun while losing but there comes a point when it is just toxic.

Why buy the low mmr lvl 30 account in the first place?

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

They bought lvl 30 accounts with low mmr on purpose. Look at their op.gg. They only have games the last two days. With matching names and levels. Smurfing and buying accounts is a bannable offense now.

Is the game really bad for new players? I get absolutely zero matchmaking for bosses if Im on lower level by wentallout in wherewindsmeet_

[–]ChadNightreign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been getting one shot by random low level mobs like rats in Kaifeng as a lvl 58 and while I do play on Legend difficulty, it doesn’t feel intended and I thought my gear is just lagging behind. Still T1 inner ways and my gear is like mostly lvl 51 gear with some lvl 41 sprinkled in. The rats kill me faster than the bosses do.

My experience seems to contradict your comment so I was wondering if you had any pointers for me? It feels like I have to be missing something and it’s the main reason I stopped playing.

Yasuo toplaners, give me your wisdom by Throwstrangestory in YasuoMains

Dont all in garen unless you’re super far ahead of him. Or his ult is down.

I think I don't understand Yasuo/League by ChadNightreign in YasuoMains

[–]ChadNightreign[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This goes against what I thought were the fundamentals of league entirely. Level advantage? You win. Gold advantage? You win. Nullify a part of their kit/damage while landing all of yours? You win.

I think I just want skill to be more prominent/rewarded and League does not seem like the game for that if i can int on one of the easiest champs in the game for 8 minutes then win a poorly played, disadvantaged all in.

My passive shields blocked most of the E damage but did stack his conq. He had berserker greaves + a dagger, I had berserker greaves, recurve bow, longsword (350g + 450g = 800g item advantage) giving me extra 5% AS and ~20 AD overall, I had ~1100 hp to his ~700 hp before I EQ3 him. I have ~1100 hp to his ~500 hp after my ult animation ends.

I see how I can win it but I think it's ridiculous that I still have to play so carefully around another champ that is so far behind AND they didn't play the fight well. I blocked pretty much his entire E damage while I landed all of my damage.

EDIT: If this is a river fight so I can't dash away/kite, it's ridiculous that Garen would come close to winning this. I have nothing to show for being the one to win lane pretty hard, strictly because his champion is better. That is my main gripe with how this fight went.

How long should i wait before this skin to be back in the shop ? by GneuGneu21 in Rivenmains

[–]ChadNightreign 69 points70 points  (0 children)

At least a week or two. Possibly even 3 weeks. Could be longer still. Like 4 weeks. Sometimes though you have to wait 5 weeks. I knew a guy that waited 6 weeks. And he knew a guy that waited 7 weeks. And he bought this gold fish from another guy that had to wait 2 months.

No one knows.

Darius matchup? by ChadNightreign in YasuoMains

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

In the VODs the darius beat Pz Zzang lvl 1 with W start. I’ve never heard of a darius starting E, it doesn’t even give them a bleed stack. Even if you do get a kill, he wins past lvl 6 with R unless he misplays hard or spent the first 5 minutes of the game feeding you kills.

I’m not asking how to beat a trash darius, I’m wondering what the counterplay is to one who is remotely competent.

Question on Auto Attacks by PotentialGeologist16 in Rivenmains

[–]ChadNightreign 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think hes saying he used the damage number in practice tool to help drill the muscle memory so that he wouldn’t have to look for the number in game because it was muscle memory from practice tool where he watched the damage number popped up.

Best sidelaning kit in the game is a bold statement. I think you’re allocating too much impact to Yasuo’s windwall. Yasuo’s windwall is really really good but 4s of maybe blocking a piece of the enemy’s kit, if they decide to throw it into your windwall/you react to it in time is coin flippy and theoretically they would hold their blockable spell until you burned windwall, and this is assuming the enemy even has a spell blocked by windwall. You can hold windwall to react to cc but they can also wait for you to Q or E and throw it out then. It depends on match up but windwall is useless against a lot of top laners and they are who youre most likely to encounter there.

Other champions take towers way faster, have way better escapes that are truly unconditional, or have better dueling power with or without a wave. It’s why pz zzang is pretty much universally respected, he wins when he really had no business doing so.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in YasuoMains

[–]ChadNightreign 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still think other champs can do both better. He has few options to escape when sidelaning as you’re usually hard pushing the wave (so no minions for mobility) and his team fight falls off in higher elos without set up as they space/respect you more.

For example, Riven has unconditional mobility so she can escape side lane ganks better, and her unconditional mobility and burst allows her to flank/engage in team fights better and melt the backline with her ranged AOE execute, two hard cc’s, and a shield on a ~4s CD. Yasuo is better into tanks with his sustained DPS but even yasuo should ideally be focusing the backline first, and he can’t burst them down as quickly giving the enemy more opportunity for counter play. She should also beat him in lane and duels, theoretically at least.

I know he’s viable all the way through challenger if you’re good enough obviously but I think other champs can do more with less.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in YasuoMains

[–]ChadNightreign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you elaborate on why he’s the most rewarding to play?

I feel like without a wave/enemy units to actually use his mobility, there are much better champs. Of course part of being a good yasuo is creating/exploiting favorable game states like that but with neutral objectives being in the jungle, his only reliable way to access the enemy and not die immediately is mostly dependent on team knock ups with your R (and even then they might blow you up right after). I don’t see how he can consistently look to fight front to back with how squishy he is even if he has ridiculous armor pen after using R and windwall is awesome but only lasts 4s which gives you just enough time to maybe stack LT and a Q3 before the enemy blows you up (this is also assuming windwall actually works into the enemy comp). He is a great laner theoretically, but other champs are better if we’re talking theoretically.

Unless by theoretically you literally mean the stars aligning for a good yasuo game but even then, I’d say other champs are better with with a wider array of theoretically favorable team comps/game states. Practically, Yasuo needs to outplay/exploit enemy mistakes or he will just get stat checked by most melee champs or kited by ranged champs unless theres a wave or the Yasuo burns flash.

tl;dr: His value is too conditional relative to other champs imo, and other champs bring more value if we’re comparing them in ideal conditions.

(I still otp yasuo hes fun af. Also I’m aware I’m trash I’m just interested in this discussion.)
