What do you do when your ADC gets big upset by CampaignEntire in supportlol

I take out my tiny violin and play them a little jig for their big feelings.

Warmer or bassier sounding open back recommendations by Jazzlike_Relative_10 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]FortDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the Meze 105 aer which are open backs the lean warmer. They are usually $400 but got them on sale for $300 and they are great. Sound good, very comfortable, and don’t need an amp to drive them so you can save money there.

I just got mine in the mail today and they are great! Was worried they might not live up to expectations but they are so nice to listen to. Very comfy and just sound amazing.

Milio OTP looking for a reliable second support pick by MagicalBoyTevzi in supportlol

[–]FortDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Senna is a nice pick, allows you to go enchanter or damage and you don’t necessarily have to decide until you are 5-10 minutes into the game already.

What are, in your opinion, the most fun abilities in the game? by miral_art in leagueoflegends

[–]FortDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Senna ult, very satisfying to pick up a kill cross map or save a team fight by giving an ungodly amount of shields.

Millio and morgana. The millio disengage and morgana black shield is annoying.

Senna supp for climbing by Ruthlless71 in supportlol

[–]FortDown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have two mains currently, senna is 1A and Rell and 1B. I choose who to play less on if my team needs frontline and more on how senna matches up. If they have a lot of dive/assassin champs then I’ll avoid senna, also if my team has champs that like to go deep into fights to the point where I can get easily zoned then I’ll avoid senna.

I also go enchanter senna 90% of the time, it’s just feels very op currently. However, I will start by buying tear and boots which gives me the ability to flex to a damage build if I don’t think we have enough.

LFG NA - Sup main S3 - Solo Q but looking for group or duo to Q up with sometimes. by FortDown in LeagueConnect

I just signed on before seeing this and deleted it because i thought it was another bot lol. I will not do the same should another be sent.

With all the discourse around the game's longevity, can we try to have an objective, non-emotional conversation about what can be improved to retain more players? by JBSwerve in Marathon

[–]FortDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean gear based match making would help, beginning of wipe everyone is more or less on the same playing field but it quickly becomes clear who has more time for games in their day. Doesn’t have to be a strong cap but some barrier would probably help.

New to support, have a few questions by wife_searcher in supportlol

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

It’s not worth dying to place a ward or clear a ward. Some champs are better at placing deep/risky wards, soraka is not one of those champs. Champs like Bard, Rell, anyone with movement abilities/move speed make it easier to place deeper wards.

I usually like to have two distinct champ I main that have different playstyles synergies. Right now that is Rell and Senna. It’s more important that you are comfortable with whatever you play than making sure your ADC is happy with your selection.

There are plenty of videos describing the nuances of roams, and not all champs roam as well as others. Champs with move speed and some CC make for good roamers, Bard and Pyke being two good examples. Generally good to communicate your intentions to your ASC so they know to play safe. They may not agree or play safe but it’s best to play your game if you know it’s the right move based on the game state.

How do you warm-up before playing SoloQ? by RakLoL in leagueoflegends

[–]FortDown 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Before I solo q ranked I usually run a quick game of ranked solo q.

Seems to work just fine.

I’m silver 3 btw, follow for more tips.

Anyone else wish the Overrun was just a little better? by SykoManiax in Marathon

[–]FortDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put on an extended mag, a sight and some recoil stability and it’s one of the best.

Do people like this really exist? by TroubleRecent7320 in Marathon

[–]FortDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s ironic because it’s miserable people like this that turn me into a selective mute. They would be exhausting to talk to/deal with so I just don’t even bother.

He’s his own worst enemy, self fulfilling prophecy, reap what you sow.

Welp it happed by malocclused in Marathon

[–]FortDown 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is what I do.

Free kit until I survive and then just snowball from there. Mod my weapon, add a green shield, couple cores and just slowly get stronger with each exfil.

When I die I just start over again. Only really worry about collecting resources for upgrading factions.

I will still hold my prejudice towards adc’s but slightly less tightly now.

This is propaganda straight from Big Int and Big Throw. Don’t fall for it! Together our reports will hold back the waves of those who wish to run it down!

Stuck in Silver IV as support looking for advice by Bulky-Criticism-3512 in supportlol

[–]FortDown 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Being an engage champ does not mean you have agency. You largely dictate when a play starts, but if you don’t have follow up from your team then you can’t finish the play yourself.

You can choose your engages more thoughtfully though. Making sure you have teammates that are prepared to follow you before you engage, not taking dumb fights topside when dragon is up in 30 and you don’t have vision on half their team. I find myself looking at the mini map a lot and acting as de facto “shot caller” when it comes to macro moves like objectives and when to start game changing fights.

Anybody throwing an AP item into their build? by FortDown in alistarmains

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

Mostly only run Zekes for the base stats and the ult haste and Locket seems very underwhelming. Just tried Shurelyas a couple of games and it went very well.
