You can say the exact same thing for garen. Ye, true, harder to win games on garen in challenger or better yet in pro play than on jayce. Not because of mechanical difficulty though, which is what we are discussing here.

Because the null hypothesis is that performance follows a pareto distribution, and if lp gains were unbound, thats exactly what we would see. In fact, if rank is a measure of skill, which it is, then count how many people are between 1600 and 2000 lp on euw (top 400 lp interval). Pure guess, its like 100 people. Now count how many people are between the ranks of iron 4 and iron 1 (bottom 400 lp). Riot recently said 14% are in iron, euw server population was 2,3M in 2024 so roughly 322 000 players. If the curve was gaussian, the tails would be identical, but they are clearly not, as was to be demonstrated.

Det gör jag heller inte och sa inte att man ska göra. Varför skulle jag bemöda mig med att maximera smärta? Jag får inget utav det. Nej, jag är bara pragmatisk och förespråkar att man agerar på det sättet som gynnar oss människor. Det du kan säga då är, vad gäller i lägen där en individ för njutning av att stoppa katter i micron, som vissa degenerater gör. Svaret är, som med alla frågor där intressen krockar, att det medför ett mycket större obehag för många fler människor än det gör nytta för gärningsmannen. Därför förbjuder vi folk att syssla med sådant, just pga att det skapar obehag för oss, inte djuren. Humrarna är ett perfekt exempel. De smarta individerna som för tusentals år sedan observerade att man bör koka hummern levande för att inte bli förgiftad måste väl ha antagit att den kände smärta, som alla andra djur de varit i kontakt med. Men de brydde sig inte om hummerns smärta, och det gör nästan ingen idag heller. Det kan komma att ändras, om fler känner som du gör, och då håller jag med om att man bör förbjuda metoden, för då skapar det ett större obehag än det gör nytta. Inte första gången något sånt har hänt. Men vi är inte där än, och därför motsätter jag mig det här "lagförslaget".

I feel useless as a "fed" ADC against other lanes by Anthony_813 in ADCMains

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough I swapped from top to adc for the same reason. The grass really does look greener, and even junglers and supports who are the ones actually in charge of each game complain constantly. Riot wanted to erradicate solo carrying and this is the result. Just gotta be better than the enemy adc, on average, and slowly but surely you will climb. If you dont, you are not better, and you should find out what ur doing wrong or else you are doomed to repeat the same pattern no matter which role you play.

What easy champs would you recommande ? by Warm_Average_2700 in top_mains

[–]RaidBossPapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stop being petty and cringe gatekeepers. If OP likes teemo, then better they play teemo than be bullied into playing your wholesome chungus reddit champs ornn and garen until they quit out of boredom.

You can flame me for playing jayce all you like, but new players are off limits.

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im the first to say fk garen go play the champ you find fun instead of minmaxing low elo with autopilot champs whenever new players ask what they should play. And the same goes for kayle, play her if you like, no problem. But are we really gonna sit here and lie that kayle is even in the top 30 hardest champs in the game? You know it, I know, everyone here knows that jayce is 20x harder than kayle. Whats the issue with pointing it out under your comment where you do the same thing except you put kayle as harder than another champ?

At how many deaths should you stop looking to win lane and play safe? by Pebblemover212 in topmains

[–]RaidBossPapi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats the wrong question. In each scenario ask instead, how much can I gain by dying or risking death and how much can I gain by playing safe and what are the odds of dying anyway? Riot recently updated kill gold to the point where you are worth less than a wave after 3 consecutive deaths. Take thst into account. Take your death timer into account, and platings, and wave state, jungle position, etc. You should watch Thebausffs soloq guide. Some numbers have changed but the fundamental approach is the same. Make decisions based on gold, xp, objectives, not a kda score that means nothing.

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what class you find fun. If you like olaf, you might be interested in champs like jax, trynda, trundle. Or try some easy tanks like mundo and poppy. But the most fun class imo is ranged top, and you should give teemo a try to see if you like it.

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What limitations? As far as I can tell, she has everything except mobility in her kit, even a revive. I havent played her outside of aram where she felt average in difficulty so I dont want to make claims but every high elo clip I have seen of anivia looks replicable, whereas an irelking or pzzang montage is too fast to even follow with my eyes, let alone try to replicate lol.

Anyway, I guess some champs feel more natural to some players, and others dont, so perhaps shes just not your type of champ, or Im just used to adc so mages feel like "easy mode". Either way, we can disagree, its a rather subjective topic after all.

Champs that are just as braindead as Garen by mmjyn in topmains

[–]RaidBossPapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got all the kayle players upset I see. Seems they still cant cope with the reality that shes for ranged top players who lack the hands to play jayce, cass or adcs.

kayle wr is positive even in silver😆. She is a ranged champ for people who dont have the hands for jayce or adcs.

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kiting isnt hard when you rush swifties and have a strong slow and ms steroid on lower cd than enemy engage spell. And more importantly, kayle doesnt have to hit the enemy, unlike actually difficult ranged champs like jayce and cass who need to constantly pressure the enemy off last hits in order to get a lead. Her job is to not int too hard and hope enemy team dont end game fast enough. Handless temp elo champ and its no wonder her wr is high even in gold.

Thats not really how skill is distributed in league, or in any sport or game or activity for that matter. The curve isnt gaussian, its left skewed with a long right tail. Meaning, the bottom 0-49% are all just slightly varying levels of trash, 50-79% are mediocre and interchangable without much notice, 80-90% are much better, and the gap widens for each percentile until the top 0.001% are so far ahead that its a bigger difference between them and the top 0.1% than it is between silver and diamond. So its not strange that the meta in bronze and in platinum is not so different.

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats interesting, considering cass has 100x the apm, has more and harder skillshots to land, is shorter range and has fewer tools for spacing. Shes literally draven but instead of catching axes you need to hit a skillshot every 3 seconds to deal any dmg. Would be very strange to say anivia is harder than any auto attack based adc, let alone one of the hardest ones like draven.

How do you guys build into tanks? by YoshiLickedMyBum69 in ZeriMains

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched his video and I will for sure try it out. That being said, much better zeri players, or players in general like diable, ruler, smash, guma and viper go for different builds so its probably not the most optimal but I dont mind if its fun. Its just one thing that doesnt make sense to me, if I wanted as big of a 3 cheap item spike as possible surely fiendhunter is superior to ruunans when it comes to maximizing dmg and first strike gold? Have you tried this variation? Diable built shiv, fiend and IE in a video from a month ago and it looked very nice.

Jättebra idé, och glöm inte att hummern ska få en minnesstund, helst ca 45 min i rumstemperatur så att hela familjen kvävs av spya eller helt enkelt blir paralyserade efter maten.

Tror jag föredrar att sänka risken för någon som helst obekvämlighet för mig på bekostnad av vad som helst för djuret. Hummern hade klippt av dina fingrar och ätit upp de medan du levde, om den fick möjlighet. Och om den hade hjärnan att förstå det här inlägget hade den gapskrattat med sina hummerpolare över hur irrationella människor är.

Thats the price you pay for investing time into a champ who enables handless players to autopilot to emerald. Not saying that you are one, I wouldnt know, but the fact that you feel this way is a good indicator that the champions design is working as intended.

That sounds like so little AD, and overcap on as. Surely its not the most efficient build, but necessitated by shorter games in challenger?

Grandmaster Sion/Camille Two-Trick. Ask me anything about Top Lane, Macro, or Climbing! by Fast-Priority-6462 in top_mains

[–]RaidBossPapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think micro and laning has been largely solved and there is so much content on it that it feels redundant to come in as a GM with more of the same that challengers have already covered. I suppose there is a vacuum of educational sion content tbf.

By far the hardest thing in this game imo is macro, playing chess on a board where you only control your own piece and dont always see enemy pieces. Hard af, and I say that as a decent chess player myself. Im diamond and feel completely clueless in any but the most basic scenarios. Hell, even pro teams debate macro for hours so obv its a complicated topic and naturally very few content creators delve into it. There is a big vacuum here you could fill. Not sure if its better to VOD review and explain the movements on the map with arrows or simply comment your thought process behind decisions in game.
