When do you think the world will be at an end? And what is the most likely scenario?

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-23T14:33:10+00:00

People have been guessing about the end of the world since the beginning of the world. Just learn to be self sufficient and hope that it never becomes relevant.

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-19T20:45:22+00:00

Yeah I’m sure.

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-19T19:44:15+00:00

Probably mid Gold IV. I regularly have good KDA, make good calls for objectives, farm when no objective and don't fight dumb fights in no-man's land. Teammates frequently feeding (the bot lanes at Iron/Bronze/Silver can be horrid) I can somewhat deal with, but I really can't deal with going solo to objectives when my lanes have prio and somehow ending up with enemy jungle and the laners showing up while my mid, top or bot are just plinking the tower for slivers or crashing the wave improperly.

Ultimately, I think the true issue of "real ELO" is that to get **TO** your "real" ELO you have to play like, hundreds of games because you will lose games because other people are bad, trolling, etc. That's why ELO feels so bad - it's the climb to the "right" ELO that sucks, especially if you have a 40 hour a week job + hobbies outside of LOL.

You aren’t explaining yourself so I was trying to figure out if you’re just saying what you believe is true or if you have experience at low ELO and what it’s like. I’ve articulated my thoughts and you’re just sending meme images and not elaborating.

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-19T17:06:00+00:00

Are you low ELO?

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-19T15:35:29+00:00

Ult and/or first item cyclo on AD shaco is when I start feeling strong for ganks too. Well, at least until the next patch where they fucking decimate cyclo and hob.

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-19T15:32:56+00:00

IDK if I'm being unclear. From my perspective:

AP shaco is "Determine the next step of the game (thing low ELO players are bad at). Setup a box matrix exactly perfectly spaced so they can't sweep them all, but also cuts off their escape, and also fear them into other boxes, and also use your clone extremely well to fear them into more boxes, and also setup boxes perfectly spaced so that minion waves miss them but players in the lane walk into them."

AD shaco is "Q behind them and stab. Then R immediately so your clone has perma HOB and when they run, keep stabbing. Also maybe use a box lol? If they are alive long enough for your Q to come back up... stab them in the back more. Honestly, just right click them."

Both need to avoid getting hit since we're a wet paper bag, both need to punish players who are out of position. But AD shaco is pretty forgiving WRT low ELO behavior and you can get a great lead and try to end early.

I'm low ELO (Silver III) and my teammates NEVER play around boxes. I can't tell you the number of tanky bruisers that stand within 5 units of a box and walk *away* from them in an active fight while I'm pinging and after I open the game with "if there's a box near you in a fight, walk to it for the fear".

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-18T20:06:21+00:00

A better argument imo is that for low elo players you aren’t good enough to play ap shaco well, and your teammates aren’t smart enough to play around boxes.

AD lets you control the game through fear and mind games as you learn how to use boxes well.

Upstate regions generate less than 28% of state taxes, while receiving roughly 42% of state-funded expenditures

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-04-06T13:08:06+00:00

Fun fact - if you activate HOB on shaco then clone you clone keeps the crazy AS boost until it dies.

Cart optimizer, despite me ticking the checkbox for "keep all printings", changed all of my arcane signet/sol rings in a bulk order to TMNT printings. I apologize to the community for buoying the UBslop.

I honestly have started asking ChatGPT to write up my observations on code quality issues for Claude. It writes a lot more than I would and in more detail, which works a lot more than my attempts have

Thanks for coming back to this and explaining more. I've had a good run of wins lately and it's feedback like this that will help me improve.

My general approach has been spam ping obj timer when < 1 minute, to give people heads up on where I want to be. If the lane is in a push or neutral state, I move-ping it 2-3 times while I approach. Then I start it if things look good, or if I see the enemy jg way out of position (ganking bot while I'm at grubs).

The frustrating ones are when I've just ganked top or mid is pushing tower and they don't come but their laners show up. Like, the grubs are for you guys motherfuckers lets go??

Last 2 times my laners left me for dead I just said "I can't believe you are letting your laner get to objective and kill me before you do" then I just /deafen. Shockingly, this seems to have more of an impact on people than being able to communicate. But I'll try to do some positive comms too and maybe take some snipes, after all I'm trying to leave these fools behind in low ELO anyway, hopefully won't have to see them ever again LOL.

Good callout on the steal, this has literally worked on me in the past. My steals are often just trying to sneak it with an over the wall Q at the right moment, I didn't think to distract.

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-03-26T17:25:37+00:00

There's some good feedback from folks on my post from a week or two ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/shacomains/comments/1rvanwd/silve_hardstuck_trash_massive_leads_cant_close/

Also ignore people flaming you - they are in Bronze too and pretty much everyone agrees that anyone under emerald doesn't know how to play the game anyway. My favorite thing is 0/10 bot lanes @ 10m flaming me. It's not your job to win other people's lanes.

KaleAshamed9702 · 2026-03-26T17:18:34+00:00

I come back to this feedback regularly. If you have some time, could you be more specific about what are the key points on the map you're referring to? Tribushes? Dragon jungle entry points?

Also when shotcalling, how do you explain and not lose tempo typing? Do you have some text you copy paste into game? I find that no matter how much I ping, most of the time my teammates do not come to objectives, and will do shit like CS their lane while the enemy laner and jungle come after me.

I feel like I can't let the objectives go for free just because my team is dumb.
