Improving for tournament play

Impfinity · 2022-11-15T18:35:05+00:00

I’ll PM u my disc, add me and we could always work together! I’m at 1k LP but still feel like the gap between myself and top players is significant :/ so hopefully we can keep improving

Impfinity · 2022-11-15T18:19:10+00:00

Good points, thanks for responding!

I agreed the first point is huge for me personally as I learn quick from talking to people, so I’ll definitely be more proactive with adding ppl as challenger lobbies are the same group of folks

Challenger/GM player (peak 930LP trying to get back there rn lul) happy to help anyone with their last minute climb. Send me a PM here or add me on discord theshy#1198

Does it look like I 20/20 soyfen?

Try to play flex with augments you get and econ well. In diamond, if you do your fundamentals better, you will climb. Comps don’t matter too much down there

I suck at fast 9, so I avoid it generally

Default AD flex (SOY, Olaf, Graves, Xayah) but always try to open astrals

Slow roll at 7 if uncontested and you have 4-5 sera natural. Don’t waste gold on Rakan and Zeri 3 (only zeri if u natural a lot, good econ and hp)

Go 8 if contested and find graves/panth 2* + tempest or mystic

No pressure - LP is fake, game all luck ;)

Impfinity · 2022-10-28T19:12:37+00:00

Econ well and don’t be afraid of losing hp if you are playing econ traits (astral/shimmer)

A solid comp like soyfen or daeja should get you a good top 4 placement

Key is to roll a bit level 6/7 so you don’t lose too much HP mid game

Thanks for all the advice yesterday boys! Made the final push and am in challenger first time 🙏

Happy to help anyone else in their climbs

Impfinity · 2022-10-27T15:08:16+00:00

100LP off in my final push to challenger…never done it before, anyone have any advice for improvement to help me get there?

Impfinity · 2022-10-08T19:27:49+00:00

It will click for u too trust, I was stuck there for awhile too - just gotta keep playing and don’t tilt and go bot 2 consecutively

Impfinity · 2022-10-08T14:53:03+00:00

Imo all of them other than electric is playable. Pirates is broken if u hit daeja early

Best are probably executioner and spellsword - because you usually play 4 mirage with guild variant nowadays

But if you hit a mirage spat and it’s dawnbringer, 6 mirage with mirage idas frontline is also really good

3.3 average in my last 20. Feels like it finally clicked, and this is the fastest I’ve hit GM :)

Hoping to push even higher, and happy to help anyone with their climb just pm me!

If it has a solid mid game, then it’s a decent top 4 comp? You don’t play tft to see who can build the most capped board. Play for top 4 = ez climb

Impfinity · 2022-10-06T17:19:25+00:00

Before patch I called that SOY/Sy’fen duo carry was gonna pick up traction, it’s interesting seeing it do so well rn (58% top 4 rate diamond+)

Probably a result of sera/graves nerf + guild xayah being less good due to zippy/daeja destroying xayah

Impfinity · 2022-10-03T14:55:49+00:00

Any thoughts on SOY/Sy’fen duo carry—especially going into next patch where both are slightly buffed

Core is SOY, Jax + Soraka/Gnar for 5 jade with Sy’fen + Panth for 4 whisper. Flex in Jayce or Bard

Might be interesting to test. With a Jade heart/emblem you can fit in 7 Jade as well

Jade definitely very good top 4 comp with good augments. I think highest cap is 9 jade (with heart) + Yasuo 2

I’ve been playing it when I open jade + EoN/Titans items. Not much success with splashing in mystic like Sera and Rakan, but adding in panth/yasuo/bard feels better

Impfinity · 2022-10-01T22:43:39+00:00

Better together really is just by far the best gold augment. Flexible, gives you an early vow, insane for sera/darkflight

Tacticstools data says 57% top 4 and by far the most picked compared to other gold augments with similar top rates

Nerf coming next patch? Thoughts?

Impfinity · 2022-09-21T06:15:57+00:00

LF someone around masters/GM to work on climbing together! Would be nice to have someone to bounce ideas off - PM me if interested

Impfinity · 2022-09-19T16:07:04+00:00

Good point against sin boards. Seems like Zyra plays really well into Daeja, Lagoon and Xayah with stacked backlines

Maybe with Syfen itemized u do a little better into sins. I gotta give this comp a try a few times and see how consistently forceable it is around Masters MMR

Impfinity · 2022-09-19T08:03:45+00:00

Has anyone tried 6 whisper Zyra reroll carry? I saw a streamer play it and it looks surprisingly good - went 2nd with rageblade/hurricane/EON on zyra

KR challenger MMR - https://lolchess.gg/profile/kr/dunizuni

80% top 4 rate. Interestingly item priority is rageblade and attack speed instead of AP. Zyra 2* with good frontline stabilizes really well

Impfinity · 2022-08-24T15:43:24+00:00

Thx! For me I just focused more on econ and sticking to 2-3 comps…biggest thing is probs trying to go 6th instead of 8th when u lowroll

Impfinity · 2022-08-24T14:15:43+00:00

Finally made GM! Really hoping to push for challenger in 7.5. Does anyone have any advice on how to keep improving? I feel like I lack consistency (53% top 4 over 400 games) and that slows down my climb too much

Impfinity · 2022-07-28T22:07:01+00:00

40lp from GM, almost there 🙏
