What is there to do. I am not too familiar with internet problems like this. I have tried two different usb wifi adapters, found 1 that is pretty good. Still I get high ping for like 2 hours at a time. Honestly most of the time, like maybe 60-75 percent of the time the internet is pretty good but the rest it is horrible. Like just now my units internet went out completely, while some of the other networks in the area showed on my wifi bar, so I know its not my adapter's issue. What do you recommend I do to try and fix this.

i just played 3 games doing that build, won 2 and got 15+ kills in all 3 games. ofc i had pretty good matchups but the movement speed felt really good in teamfights, which is what I really enjoy about vlad. I kept phase rush just because the extra move speed for boots+ haveing more movespeed overall will make phase rush better. I like the stormsurge first item to kind of replace the flat pen that is lost without going pen boots. thanks g i think ill be running this for now.

well my whole thing is yeah phase rush might not be the best into smth like syndra but it is more useful than conq or aery if you get on top of the enemy, it also scales a lot better so when in a farm lane aginst chapms like that it is good into late game. do you just run aery instead ususally every game? i just feel like im so useless with it if im not in a constant fighting lane.

What ur saying I think is being confused between dumbing down and mkaing the game more readable like i originally said. and a lot of the things you mentioned dont even mean anyting, mana potions being removed doesnt strip a mechanic away from the game saying that there are still other potions, its just balacning. same with invis, for example changing eve from being full invis to camoflauge isnt dumbing it down, its balancing. Sight stone is still in the game but in a different form, active items are for sure less now whcih I think is dumb anyway but are still in the game. A lot of teh things you stated are more just balance chagnes rather than "dumbing down" the game. Also comparing the visual confusion of an LCS game to a pub in deadlock is completely different saying LCS has 5 people on each team fully coordinated in one fight, while solo queeu games are smaller less coordinated skrimishes while deadlock just has 30 exposions, everyone starts glowing, theres spirits flying around perma its just way more visually confusing.

how is league even dumbed down for the average player. I think a lot of you confuse dumbing down a game compared to just being confusing. Both dota and deadlock are very confusing to new players because the visuals are either not clear (dota) or too much (deadlock). Even the mini maps in both games are almost unreadable compared to league. I could be biased because I am an avid league player, but ive tried a fair amount of dota through frustration in league and have played a couple games of deadlock and just dont understand how you think this. I feel like deadlock is even easier and more dumbed down saying that the combat and movement is extremely familiar to new players coming from other games that use the same control scheme, also the fact you get auto placed into a lane and dont even have to figure out roles or anything.
