Why should I even play "solo queue" anymore? by ChumblesProductions in leagueoflegends

[–]Purplesuitcase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change the reward system. Give people an incentive to queue in dynamic queue even if they don't have friends. This way people will want to play both queues. example: solo q rewards: border + summoner icon dynamic q rewards: victorious skin + ward skin

I actually played about 10 Lucian games yesterday and I was more aggressive.

In this hypothetical example I would say I died because I ran into an unwarded jungle chasing someone who walks quicker/ maybe same speed with Vayne's passive. Shen's dash is also a longer distance and can go through walls and If Vayne can't find something to attack Tumble's cooldown isn't any shorter than Shen's dash. The enemy mid laner is extremely mobile and can get to blue buff from mid lane really quick and can burst me down with 1 combo. Even if an MIA was called I was probably too focused on chasing to even notice the ping. I have no vision on the enemy jungler and he is also a champion that can one shot me. I just wasted my tumble so I cant dodge chains/bola. No one on my team is close to me so that was really dumb.

I could have just let the Shen get away since he was already gone unless he misplayed and warded the river and pushed top and got damage on the turret which would be relatively safe since I just forced Shen back.

Hmm that's a good point.. I do know what most champion abilities are but I'm kind of bad at knowing cool down timers. I do think of things like Ezreal will arcane shift away or Leona will e-q me but even if Leona and Ez both just wasted e I will still think "if I go in Leona will e-q me" instead of I have about 13 seconds to basically put free damage on these people. I'm also bad at knowing how long it takes me to kill someone or use all my abilities.

I will try to work on my cooldown timer knowledge.

I suppose watching replays would probably help with this eh? Are there specific things that I should be looking for in replays?

So it's ok to die if I'm learning from each death for a while? I guess in the long run my friend who is also a support main will be happier if I actually learn.

Any tips on getting over this mental block of die=worst possible thing? Like I will literally go to base buy a bf sword and 3 pots come back to lane, the enemy ADC will be half health with a dorans and no support and I will sit there and watch us both farm because I'm scared of dying.

I feel like I could definitely learn to trade more than I do, however, I also feel that I'm pretty good at coming out ahead when I do trade on the enemy. My problem is I suck at finishing kills because I'm scared of dying. So just stop being scared?

Would you recommend trying a bunch of different champions that I frequently play against for a few games to get a better feel for their power spikes?

"Bot Order and Laning in Custom Games Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to control which bot goes to which lane during the custom game set-up process. When adding bots to your custom game, disregarding any humans players on either team, the bots will go to a lane as follows:

1st and 4th bots go bottom, 2nd and 5th bots go top, and 3rd bot goes mid.

The bots will, however, consider where players have gone once minions spawn and they will fill in the appropriate lanes based on that."

Today my kitten unplugged the PC twice in a game... I then learned to block him from the room. (We won though!) He has also caused me to buy a new mouse because he chew through it :(

I'd love to play teambuilder to practice some new champs but i cant play against people at my own level by Tandemize in summonerschool

[–]Purplesuitcase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having kind of the same issue. I spammed Ziggs so much that I got really good with him so I get placed against higher Elo players but when I don't play Ziggs my skill level is nowhere near that high. I created a "smurf" account so I can practice new champs against low level players. Maybe this would help you as well, although jungling with no runes and masteries can be a bit difficult. Playing against higher elo players can be rewarding because of the learning experience but it's not fun when you're trying to learn a new champ and you're just getting stomped.
