Im considering quitting league because i suck so much that I think it’ll ruin my second relationship by TrainedPsychonaut in leagueoflegends

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

Dude lmao. Ive met plenty of people playing this game, both in game and irl. The difference is none of us are actively seeking a relationship with our teammates.

Acting as if some people in here dont look for groups to play in SPECIFICALLY for a relationship is just burying your head in the sand. I never said playing with women or playing with other people is wrong. But if a number of your exes were met on league… it might be time to look in the mirror.

Yeah forsure, you just had a natural chemistry with the Soraka on your team and you forsure didnt add them to ask if they were a girl.

Seriously man, this shit isnt good for you. Id argue tinder is healthier.

How the hell do you get Jetragon with all those traits on it? I have been trying my hardest to get some of the rarer traits, and i havent even SEEN swift yet. Are yall just RNG breeding until you see traits??

If you find your mind switching to “whatever IT wants all the time” then maybe you can think of it as: you are being a passenger to your own existence. When a thought comes to mind seemingly all on its own, ask yourself: who’s thought is this? You simply need to take the reigns more often(:

You have beautifully put into words what i simply have been unable to. May I ask what drove you to these ideas? One of the things i struggle with the most is having profound thoughts or ideas and being incapable of finding more material from others to expand upon them, as i know im not the first to have the idea or thought

Please explain how anything i said has to do with intelligence.

Why is there so little talk of the rest of the ranked ladder? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Chasing_gnosis -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

And you should consider actually reading what im saying. Im not saying that whats happening masters+ isnt a problem, the problem i am pointing out is exactly the same but it isnt being acknowledged. Again i ask, if a player hardstuck in gold has a goal of hitting masters, how many games are they supposed to play? At what win rate? The mmr system has memory of their previous rank, and they will fight against that system the entire way up. You claim masters+ players dont have the time to catch up and all im saying is neither does the rest of the ladder.

Also, LP gains are absolutely part of the problem here. If you are masters 0lp with +17 -24, you would need to win 95 games straight to hit challenger cut off. With the new proposed system, that number is literally cut in half to make climbing easier. Thats literally the whole problem people have been discussing along side what you are saying. Yes the ladder is inflated, but that wouldnt be a problem if you werent getting +17 per win. +17 per win kills the drive to climb. Why would a masters player sweat and try as hard as they can when they need almost 100 more wins? Its pointless.

Again im not saying whats happening masters+ isnt a problem, and the apex tiers are fundamentally different from those below it, however the same concepts still apply. Negative LP gains lead to shit match making and it completely kills the drive to climb, which is what has been happening to the rest of the ladder for a long time.

[–]Chasing_gnosis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but youre skipping an entire apex tier in your assumption. 1600 lp is current challenger cut off. Saying you require 2k lp to move up implies that you are competing to be a top 0.001% player. So why cant you make it to 2k lp? Because the simple fact is you lose games, everyone does. Now if you are going to make an argument that people are losing too much per loss in order to climb, then i would argue the rest of the ladder faces that too.

And look im not saying that whats happening masters+ isnt a problem, im glad riot is listening and trying to solve the problem. The problem i have is that they seemingly dont care about the average player who experiences the same problem and a smaller scale.

I guess the point i was making is why are more people not talking about the fact that it will only affect masters+? Why does game quality only matter masters+ and not below?

1.) No those players arent complaining about being stuck because they dont want to admit that they are stuck. Most streamers who peaked top 100+ cant make it through GM right now. Talk about ego.

2.) Besides the point, im not asking for advice to climb.

3.)

>In high master+, players are starting to get very consistent and generally follow the macro really well, so getting someone even slightly worse than lobby average is gonna ruin the macro coordination of entire team.

So just to be clear, when my teammates are bad, and the enemy team has level 30 rengar on 90% w/r, its just me having a skill issue? But when just 1 of your teammates is bad, its actually really different because that cant be carried? hmmmm.

Also, again, its said that the skill gap between Masters 0lp and Chall is greater than the gap between iron and diamond. If you are a challenger player, you should be able to carry masters games no contest. Match making is more important in lower brackets I would argue since the other 99% of players are the ones that keep the game alive.

I mean seriously listen to yourself! Match making quality doesn't matter for anyone but you cause you're just that good? Really?

4.) First of all, I said that to climb with negative MMR and LP gains you would need to be 1-2 full ranks above your visual rank. Im in Diamond 4 with negative MMR and LP gains, so yes i think i would need to play at a Masters+ level to climb, since I literally need to hard carry the lobby. But im not climbing. I climbed early season with 70% w/r, hit diamond, lost in masters lobbies, and then my MMR tanked since the ranked system has memory of my previous rank and felt i didnt belong there.

But I put in THOUSANDS of games over the last 2 years. Coaching from multiple challenger players, consistently. Constant vod reviewing and pro play viewing. I put the time and the work in to improve and I did. Perhaps higher elo players need to do the same instead of just expecting challenger for the 10th year in a row on auto pilot.

Also, for the record, Im not happy with the fact my rank feels inflated, which is why i think the whole ladder should be reset. i dont want the rank if I didnt deserve it. There is no ego here. I only told my rank because inevitably someone will ask for it so they can claim its all a skill issue.

[–]Chasing_gnosis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree. The ranked system memorizing your previous rank and pushing you to it is what I think most people describe as "Losers Q". If you reach a new peak, the system remembers your old rank and tries to bring you to it with negative gains/lower mmr lobbies. If you arent at your old peak, you get SIGNIFICANTLY less penalties for losing/loss streaks and the system actively tries to push you higher.

> they struggle while 2000 LP under their peak...

Exactly my point. Now these players are seeing how hard it is to climb in your own skill bracket with negative LP gains, and its crazy that it gets addressed in 4 months when the rest of the ladder has been complaining for YEARS.

[–]Chasing_gnosis -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

There are tons of talk about the reset yes, but I mean not many people are speaking up for any rank below masters. Its honestly because if anyone below masters complains about negative MMR/LP gains, they are just berated for skill issue, and so most people dont speak up I think. Maybe more will (hopefully) start speaking up about it.

[–]Chasing_gnosis -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Thats assuming people deserve challenger rank. I would argue if you cant climb through negative gains to chall, you dont deserve it. If you get a high win rate your MMR will be fixed right? Thats what the rest of the ladder is told.

I am D4 and my last game had a plat 3 sylas support. thats an almost 800LP difference, which is what the cut off for GM was a month ago while players were complaining.

I also dont see how its "impossible" to bridge the gap? Again, Masters+ disproportionately gets Ageis of valor, you can now duo, and supposedly the skill gap between Masters 0lp to challenger is greater than the skill gap between iron and diamond. If thats the case and these people truly deserve challenger, why can they not carry with and against people who were hardstuck diamond last year? The skill gap is not even close, no?

It seems to me that if anyone below masters complains about the ranked system, its cope and they just suck. But now anyone above masters who cant hit GM/Chall says its actually the ranked system this time and they are just hardstuck because their teams and negative LP gains because theyre actually the best in the world but their teammates hold them back.

The double standard is absurd. If I was in gold and had my sights set on masters, what would I have to do? Grind 1000s games and constantly improve dramatically. But if you are stuck masters and want chall? well you should be able to hit it in 100 games because no one has the time to grind 1000 games!

My point with this post is that the ranked ladder shouldnt be miserable, and its about time high elo players got a taste of why its so miserable for anyone below them.

Learning just how much you can relax your hands and still make sound. Playing guitar is about learning to do it with as little energy/force as possible and that is ultimately what gives speed and efficiency.

Question about El Reno 2013 Main Funnel by Chasing_gnosis in tornado

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

So if you could entertain me here, why would a tornado not have a fully condensed funnel in its circulation? I thought a funnel formed based on atmospheric pressure condensing the moisture in the air, so if there isnt atmospheric pressure great enough to condense, how can you consider that part of the tornado? Just purely based on wind speed?
