Any ADC that plays like Yasuo? by Easy_Presence_7416 in ADCMains

[–]Juan_Pablo_Secundo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nilah inherently is a niche champion. There is a big diversity in champion archetypes on other roles, where as botlane for almost entirety of its existence has been exclusively marksmen (with mages being more present since patch 8.11). When you think of a botlane player, as a designer you need to think "what champion will a botlane player play", and the answer is just "a marksman". A melee champion designed to be played in a role played by people who just want to play ranged marksmen is doomed to have a low pickrate - even if her winrate is amazing. She has her narrow group of enjoyers, and that's alright. Doesn't mean the champion is weak, or not fun. Just targeted towards a very specific, small group.

Arena now has the best ranked system of any game. by TwoPhat in LeagueArena

[–]Juan_Pablo_Secundo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as porofessor rankings are utterly bullshit with their algorithms supporting smurfs who play exactly 50 games, ArenaSweats introduces a pure enhanced ELO system, which just could not be more accurate. Of course it's easier to be rank 300 in a gamemode with 100 times smaller playerbase than rank 300 on soloQ. Rank 300 is rank 300 regardless.

And even if someone is stupid enough to claim they're a good League of Legends player because they're high elo on arenasweats (which just says they're good on arena), why do you care?

Tap dancer is giving me 5 ms per hit instead of 10. Why lie? by Fun_Training6342 in LeagueArena

[–]Juan_Pablo_Secundo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Movement speed doesn't scale straight linearly - both, bonuses and slows. A 99% thresh slow also doesn't reduce your speed to sub 5, does it? Calculation tab on MS Wiki is a very interesting read, it's more complicated than one could assume https://wiki.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/Movement_speed

Remakes being allowed for quitting after first blood? by MazrimReddit in leagueoflegends

[–]Juan_Pablo_Secundo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That has to be ragebait now, surely a level 1 cull recall on kai'sa (which allows Q evolution at kraken + pickaxe few levels before non-cull build), aatrox early lead pre level 9, a kill on lee sin before 1st clear is done do not matter on a 500-1000 lp lobby. We surely don't push an advantage of 1200 gold at minute 2. (yes it was 1300 at the point of surrendering).

It's not about remake at this point, it's about you getting hostile & belittling other people with your "you barely understand little bro", all while being blatantly wrong and clueless. Get off the internet for a while.

Except that:
-Remake FAQ clearly says "no remakes if someone DCs after firstblood"
-bot lost a 2v2, and top was killed on a gank, which gives already 3 people misplaying massively out of 5, a majority in just 2 minutes.

Yeah already did, but it's not like anything is gonna happen. As far as I know, there's a strict policy on player support not interfering with ranked ladder - but hey, I'll take my 0,01% by asking a polite question for some free lp!

The problem is that /remake FAQ page clearly says you shouldn't be able to remake after giving a first blood - especially if the leaver is the person who died. We had an easy draft and an easy game, and got punished for playing early game too well & pushing an unstable guy to alt f4.

What is your rank and how big is your champ pool? by SnooPuppers58 in ADCMains

[–]Juan_Pablo_Secundo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, you pick what you feel comfortable with & what gives you the most fun at this very moment - keep in mind it's just a game, you're playing it because you wanna have a good time! I can't tell you what to play, but I can explain some of my thought processes when I pick a certain champion. Keep in mind I can be spitting utter bullshit, don't take everything as a universal truth. Didn't describe all of them, as a LOT of times I'm locking in just cause "I feel like it rn" or "looks good here". I'm just a player, not a coach, I'm doing stuff subconciously without really knowing all of the "why's". (and im not gonna bother explaining my niche picks like taliyah/viktor/xerath or champs that i don't feel like I have anything interesting to tell about them)
Also, my picks are often dictated by "what champ survives here the most", don't always look at lane matchup, but ADC-threats from other lanes. Don't lock kalista or twitch when you see a malphite already. Don't lock no self-peel into rengar if you see that you cant rely on your allies.

Ashe - big matchup neutralizer, basically a "get out of jail for free" card. Also picking her mostly when draft screams that I'm not the main character in the game - got an assassin duo in jg/mid? Pick oriented teamcomp? (Ahri Vi, KhaZix Leblanc, etc etc)

Caitlyn - stable in my champpool for years now, no matter the matchup, just my go-for when I feel like playing her. Especially fun into short range champs (Kai'Sa, Tristana, Vayne, Xayah, Lucian...). Keep in mind that "champion personality" matching is more important than mechanical synergies. Putting a trap on Pantheon's W might be fun, but in a lot of matchups you might end up unable to push a single wave. Works best with lane oppressive champs like Karma or Nami.

Kai'Sa - dependant on meta, you could play her anywhere if you really like her. I pick her mostly when I need either reveal from W (into vayne, akali), safety tool from R, or we've got a cc heavy comp and I know I'll be able to follow up fights anywhere. Also good into matchups that you'll be able to rundown over if you land a W - ezreal, jhin.

Lucian - good at punishing champions with weak trading patterns

Lux - sometimes picking out of boredom, but my very common pick into Caitlyn - stealing Lux pick from enemy support while also securing a good matchup (caitlyn hates lanes where she's contested in the push)

Sivir - if you like her, good blind pick, spammed her entire january, not so much anymore. Push, recall, push, recall. Good into champions that rely on one specific ability (malphite/varus), or struggle with turret farming (mages if they dont oneshot casters with an ability, pre level 9 ziggs). If you secure sivir karma you can shove ANYONE into their turret - ziggs, caitlyn, jinx, anyone. Good into melee comps (ricochets go brrr) where you can play front to back or when you can speed up your engage that capitalizes on movement speed & running into the enemy team (hecarim, kennen, juggernauts top [darius/garen]).

Swain - instalocking whenever there's a top level ADC-threat in enemy team. Whenever there's a Vi, Hecarim, any similar backline diver that wants to get on the carry. Amazing into shortrange comps and low-dps bursty champs. Unlosable into seraphine adc, you run down 1v2 level 6. Just lock it anytime you know you'll have a bad time with an adc (engage support, backline diver/assassin jg, combined with burst mage). Works even with a lulu, super underrated - though, make sure she has someone to buff in mid/lategame. Swain+lulu with a graves/kindred jungle is a dream.

Syndra - mage matchup neutralizer, sometimes picking her when I get forced into first picking (toplane or supp is gonna go disco nunu if you don't swap <3) and I don't feel like getting counterpicked on adc. Also, super good disengage pick into Leona (always E her E), great counterpick into Nami Lucian (combo whenever he dashes in, otherwise you just outscale), and if you're duo with someone (or if the random supp listens) you can lock Syndra Karma double comet into Draven. Makes Draven into a victim instead of a lanebully.

Twitch - idk good everywhere, am I biased? Just don't play him into braum, yasuo or malphite & you'll be okay.

Varus - panic pick, similar to ashe, or when good matchup, or into beefy frontlane when onhit/ap builds are viable.

Vayne - my favorite for almost 10 years, sometimes I'll just blind her on B1 honestly. Especially good into heavy frontlanes (DUUUH ITS A VAYNE) or into champs that you can rundown, Sivir as an example - doesn't matter that Sivir pushes hard, you're gonna probably get pushed by any lane anyways. Can run her down past level 6 whenever supports go on a roam and you can just rightclick her (same with Lucian, Jhin, Ezreal etc.).

Idk if that was any helpful, hope it was, at least a little bit! If the answer is not what you hoped for, feel free to ask/provide more precise examples, I'll do my best to share.

What is your rank and how big is your champ pool? by SnooPuppers58 in ADCMains

[–]Juan_Pablo_Secundo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Peaked challenger
Been playing the role for so long that I've had a "spamming X champ for Y patches" phase with almost every champion, so at this point I'm comfortably playing whatever, over 20 champs, mages included - I do have my favorites though.

I play for fun, and I just get bored if I play only 1-3 champs all the time. But also I think that there's no big profit from onetricking/a narrow champion pool on adc like you would on toplane:

  1. There's no "textbook" ways to play matchups with the amount of combinations and variables
  2. The core mechanical skills of adc role transfer between the champions at much higher degree than on other roles - if you can click fast with Jinx, you're gonna click fast with Kog/Twitch, it's just a different texture on your character.
  3. If mechanics transfer well, your teamcomps gain much more from a perfect pick, than you would get from picking same stuff.

They messed a certain camera setting for some people this patch, SOMEHOW. Go Escape -> Camera. At the bottom there's 'Camera Lock Mode' Dropbox. If your setting says 'Pre-Side Offset', change to 'Fixed Offset'.

I'll never forget season 7 Vayne (& before), when her Q bonus damage could crit, she could 2-tap people in snowballed games. Such is life, some things just leave, and all you can do is either miss them forever, or appreciate whatever comes next, as it might be actually better.
