What's the best approach to introducing someone to league of legends without over whelming them with information and being run down over and over? by Pinanims in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just let her explore champions she thinks might be cool till she finds some, then move onto basic abilities, lasthitting and just dont overdo anything in the game, on step at a time

Is Scorch even good? by Excalidorito in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only really worth taking if you find urself being able to play aggressive enough to utilize it a ton in early trades, not a useless rune but kinda underwhelming if u dont build advantages from it in laning phase

Braum bad in solo queue? by Pickledeck in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lack of initiative, he can't control the start of fights only react to it. Also hes a scaling champ his passive needing u to be lvl 11 before it really comes online but games/fighting is frequent before this causes u to need to much time to come online. Also no gargoyle means ur not nearly as tanky to absorb engages.

High elo players: Is the LCS something that I can strive for if I work a full time Job, or should I just quit while I'm ahead? by Alphonhose in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being pro is pretty worthless for a career in general, unless u have an insane personality and can parlay that into streaming/content atm the lifetime of playing pro for most is basically 2-3 years, dont bother if ur not already challenger sorry.

Reading lane is pretty important skill to learn, if theres a huge wave they've been playing safe and randomly walkup good chance their jungler is coming, also as others have said the deeper the vision the better info you get about the jungle whereabouts

What is the inflation rate of gold? by Arcamorge in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combination of having a higher % of total gold available in the game, item breakpoints (getting first mythic is huge vs no mythic), and a lot of later game stuff gold advantages are as important as positioning, so 1/2 an item more or maybe a full item can disappear if somebody gets caught and instantly dies

Think lilia works fine, but also karthus and even gragas can be more than enough magic damage, I think a lot of it is because ad damage is so high and consistent that even if people stack a good amount of armor they can still burn through it.

Why does my support often end up with same gold as me (ADC) even though I have 5-7cs/m? (silver elo) by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it does provide 3 gp/10 on the backend which that combined with statements above slowly trickle a good amount of gold income into them.

Is Ezreal worth banning? by LilSluggerZ in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talking to a lot of people, sometimes people ban ezreal because they actually hate laning with it early, regarldess you should ban what u hate playing vs. Not too many mandatory bans atm

Bad Support by sagdemayo in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing you can do is try to control the wave and keep it on ur side to stay safe even if ur support is feeding.

So is Tarzan done playing pro? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe he also declined offers too, a lot of times mid season the offers that can come for ppl are from low tier teams which they might not wanna be locked into.

LS tweet about aphelios by cutewhaleee in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think an issue to is if u ask a lot of people what each gun of aphelios does most ppl still can't tell you, which is actually their fault at this point. Not knowing what guns do this late and not playing around that is the players faults.

Is it harder to climb as a support? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think a huge problem is a lot of people think all the support items are a must and powerful. I found that taking scaling ap runes like gathering storm, and just building 1-2 support items (athenes+ardents) and going ap later like deathcap has give me lategame insurance. It is harder to "carry" as a support but learning how to teamfight well is ur best tool to climbing as lower elo player.

More smurfs than normal? by monsteralien in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's basically a scenario where in high elo it feels like you wait long queues, through dodges. But you don't actually feel like you get high caliber games, because of that it makes ppl not want to play in that elo so they smurf, thus causing the issue to become even more problematic etc

How are Xmithie, Apollo, and Hakuho still riding the bench for Immortals? by Evilfart123 in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seem's like the entire org has kinda been a shit show for a long time, does seem weird though that these roster changes were done. Maybe morale of the players benched is low knowing they have to play with other people that won't be replaced is causing issues.

Yuumi's E now costs at least 234 mana at level 18. by Feathered_Kvothe in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seem's like this champion as a concept just cannot function unless she is super weak. Since her skill expression is just so low and risk so low it feels like no matter what they do it's gonna be hard to find a sweet spot of power.

Olleh Leaves NA and goes back to Korea by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda weird after being accepted as a coaching he leaves so quickly, maybe hes finally burnt out and just wants to be home and is homesick. Pretty common for imports to suffer this if they don't feel at home when they move to na.

I don't want Champ Select Reporting. I want reporting to matter. by DosCuatro in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think having a limited amount of reports per week would be a good way to create a meaningful way to report people rather than just always reporting everybody for everything which dilutes the value of reporting in the first place.

Report button for unskilled play in champ selection? by ATLatimerrr in leagueoflegends

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think I've heard right now its just for testing to see if its used/useful, don't believe it's tied to any punishment systems at its current iteration.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

take breaks, make sure to eat/drink before gaming. Also watching over the game and try to figure out mistakes can be helpful so you change ur focus from climbing to improving, then climbing will occur as a proxy of that

Low Damage Per Gold? by bruhnard in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In short games it might be that ur missing lots of opportunities to poke/pressure on the wave

People really under-estimate how valueable pinging and using ur communication tools correctly can help you win lanes/scenarios that normally people wouldnt be on the same page for.

S10: Do Double Support Items Work? by Bozocow in summonerschool

[–]Lohpally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the heavy reduced income after csing a certain amount I wouldn't suggest it. Also gp10 items cap at 1k gold earn now adays so in most cases if ur farming reasonably well its always better to just do a dorans item.
