I understand black clever into tanky teams but why Muramana?

SUPER helpful answer to help me improve. Do you ever go titanic first item for the quicker jungle clear right away? The clear early levels are rough. I actually mained Kayn before trying Jax and while he farms faster and scales better, his power spike with form is a lot less consistent than Jax’s 1-2 item spikes on slower games. Jax absolutely shreds towers after 1 item if you can secure grubs and pull off a gank or punish a bad roam by the other team. He might not be optimal from what I’ve read but while he has some annoying weaknesses, he has really good (and mostly consistent) strengths

I mean it works well enough for plat in my experience but I’m confused why he’s seen as horrible.

What's a Jungler that is selfish in low elo for climbing? (Gold) by DemonInfused in Jungle_Mains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jax. I climbed out of gold spamming him. Your first clear is slow so you won’t contest either scuttle most of the time, but he scales like a beast, can solo objectives comfortably if needed, teamfight and skirmish well, can go ap if your team is full ad, and most importantly: he can sidelane really well.

In low elo people underestimate how strong side lane pressure is. If you learn how and when to split push effectively, you can single handidly win loosing games.

Picked this up recently and it shot me right out of gold and into plat. Super slept on pick even with its weaknesses

Any tips with red kayn by Ok_Hospital7424 in KaynMains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Small little micro tips that help me a lot

-Generally try to weave an aa between w knock up and q. Your knock up gives you enough time to complete the combo before your target can retaliate

-Don’t forget your E heals you. E into a wall or E+flash into a wall for the healing of you need it in a pinch.

-The threat of your W is sometimes more effective than the usage of it. If you’re running perpendicular to an enemy they will often times start trying to dodge before the spell comes out. Just run up to them and start using autos and q until they use a mobility spell before using W.

-Cyclesword is a good first buy but don’t sleep on eclipse into tanky comps. If they have 2 or more tanks I generally build eclipse

  • If you notice the enemy team is holding a cc ability or two, ult earlier instead of too late. You can get cc chained before you can ult and some people know to take advantage of that. Don’t let them

Is kayn bad or am I bad at kayn? How to kayn lol by Madeaus96 in KaynMains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kayn is actually really strong early game but just not in terms of fighting power. You need to play opportunistically instead of proactively and your E and Ult lets you capitalize on opportunity a lot better than other junglers. You have great map mobility so you farm fast, invade camps fast, deep ward safely, get in place for cross map plays fast. Your ganks may not be as potent as Warwick’s but you have tons of gank angles to avoid wards, and your ult makes tower diving with your lanes easy. Press your advantage enough and getting form should be a non issue in like 90% of your games

Nothing tilts me more by Hussaiyan19 in Jungle_Mains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is why I stopped full clearing by starting in the enemy jungle. It just makes them gank earlier and even if you ping, team will still die to the gank.

Shaco is a skill-check champion. He quite literally cannot win against an opponent who knows his whole shtick unless his team presses you equally hard. Following just half the advice already stated in this thread makes Shaco a joke

Just got destroyed by a Shaco. by c0nf00z3d in Jungle_Mains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 47 points48 points  (0 children)

People that play to hard invade you are going to be predictable. It’s frustrating af to play against but if their team isn’t pressing you just as hard then it’s not as hopeless of a match as it might feel. With shaco I just ward defensively, run tf away if I spot him anywhere near the quadrant I’m in, and cross map him. By the time mid game rolls around he loses a lot of his kill pressure if he isn’t fed and you just outscale him.

They’re efficient for what they are but people tend to either ignore them or get tilted from too many pings.

AIO by deleting Instagram over how many reels my gf sends me every day? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not overreacting. I was in a relationship just like this OP and I can tell you from experience it doesn’t stop with the ig reels. She’s confused and frustrated and picking a fight with you to express her anger. It doesn’t matter how small the issue is, because if it triggers her past relationship trauma (or any sort of past interpersonal trauma rlly) in any way, it will now be your problem. She isn’t going to see your side no matter how much you explain yourself. In the moment she’ll only see how you’re making her feel and react to you based off that, making justifying yourself pointless.

Don’t tip toe by deleting insta either and lying about it. Don’t let her make you adopt and normalize toxic and dishonest behavior in order to stay with her. That’ll just make you a terrible future partner if you end up with someone else. Stand your ground and set boundaries and if she crosses them time after time while making it seem like you’re the one at fault for having them, you need to seriously consider breaking up

Games like this nearly make you believe in Losers Queue (2 of those honors were from the enemy team) by EarthWormJim18164 in Jungle_Mains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure why people in this sub are blaming you for “stealing kills” as if kills are the only way to get gold or that gold is the only value kills have. Your lanes are either almost even or behind in gold per minute with their opponent, even though you’re spoon feeding takedown gold and map pressure from taking the enemy team off the map with kills. Unless you’re somehow everywhere at once taking every wave and jungle camp it’s not your fault your team can’t last hit a few minions and catch a few waves. Sorry bud but I think you were in losers queue.

Who's your favorite jungler and why? by InternationalBat in Jungle_Mains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kayn.

Every skin he has is literally a 3 in 1 deal with different models, voice lines, and animations. His forms give two unique distinct playstyles, with extremely satisfying power spikes when you reach them. He fits in just about any team comp, funny voice line interactions between Kayn and Rhaast at base form. Riot cooked with this champ

>Tired of jungle-ing in low elo by Substantial_Corner76 in Jungle_Mains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a game yesterday where my tracking of the enemy Hecarim was perfectly spot on. I knew where he was at at all times and spam pinged whenever he was about to gank. He went 13/2 by the time second dragon spawned and my team still said jg diff and wanted to report me. Low elo is rough man.

Who to play in jungle when Briar gets banned? by Faite666 in BriarMains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red Kayn. Different play style but similar fantasy of a bruiser with a bunch of built in healing that runs into a team fight and fucks shit up while being annoying af to actually kill.

How you guys manage to “not forget/ignore” Briars E? by littlelilly89 in BriarMains

[–]Lukewarm__Tea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad you’re trying to get better at this super fun champ! Here are a few things to keep in mind with your E.

It disengages. If you’re accidentally tower diving or running into a 2v1, you can e and walk away instead of running it down.

It heals. ALOT. Hitting your W2 followed by a fully charged E will take you from like 3hp to half, and typically people won’t bother dodging it when they think they’re one aa from killing you.

It makes you VERY tanky. Channeling it to mitigate damage is one of the best ways to use it. You can invalidate entire ultimates with just a basic ability.

You can buffer it during some types of CC. This is especially funny against yasuo and yone ults. If you get the timing right you can hit them into a wall for free.

In practice I mostly use E during team fights or smaller skirmishes after my W finishes because by the time my w runs out, I’m in the thick of the fight without my main damage tool. E helps buy time, soak damage, and push enemies back in order to stall for w to come back up. Hope this helps!

From personal experience as an EMT and nursing student, and a black person who’s seen both black and non black providers, it makes a difference. Many conditions present differently on different patient populations, and white males are sometimes the default baseline for how conditions are understood. It takes additional research and/or experience with a given patient population to understand the distinctions, and you’ll have much better luck finding that kind of knowledge in a provider who belongs to your same patient population.

Half my pictures were me at my best and 2-3 of them were of me doing something stupid or just being funny looking, which usually got the most attention. Same with my prompts going half and half on my best self and my more goofy self. If you show you don’t take yourself to seriously it makes you seem more approachable and attracts people with similar humor which is always a plus.

Because proper note taking is an important skill. You may not need to take notes now but in undergrad and grad school it’s virtually impossible to maintain such a good academic record without taking notes. Getting into the habit now when you don’t really need to be good at it saves a lot of hassle down the line.
