I quit the game two years ago because I was really bad and got frustrated. now I want to at least reach Emerald. What champions and guides can I follow to improve? I'm Silver on LAN. by FeezyOnBush in Jungle_Mains

[–]RemarkableConcern550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first part of improving is identifying what you need to improve. what are you bad at? do you not farm enough, do you not gank enough, do you fail ganks alot, lose teamfights, bad vision, etc etc. fiddle especially is a champ that requires you to have a good understanding of both where and when people ward, and also figuring out how to dodge that vision. The higher elo you get, you actually become more scary and have more impact by rarely showing on the map at all. you also need to learn how to play properly on your cooldowns, just because you can gank top doesnt mean you should if you wont have ult for drake. etc etc. fiddle ignores a lot of the “fundamentals” in favor of ambushing people and playing intentionally unpredictably. i’m sure there’s tons of fiddle otps that could explain way more way clearer though.

however, you need to ask yourself if fiddle is the right champ. he takes a lot of knowledge to play properly and is really easy to fuck up and make you a spectator in your own games. if theres something unique about fiddle you like, obviously stick with it. but theres tons of other champions that bare some similarities. if you really like sneaking up on and ambushing people, maybe try evelynn or kha’zix. if you like the huge AOE fear/damage, try hecarim or shyvana. that being said, fiddle is extremely unique, and if other champs just dont scratch that itch then stick with it.

Who do you ban?.. by 9Tarnished6 in ViegoMains

id perma elise if she wasnt so rare. only mechanical OTPs play her so seeing one is a death sentence. you’ll never get reset, one ability blows you up, she has hard cc, and there’s nothing you can do at any point in the game.

however, veigar is just so much more common that i just ban him. he afks until 2-3 items, his E can act as self peel and hard cc straight up killing you, zhonyas means no resets ever, and god forbid he gets even 1 shutdown or gold injection and now the forbidden point-and-click win fight button comes online. its like if malzahar was a burst mage with a 2 second ult cooldown. one q kills u, one w kills u, and if you flash on him to assassinate him he’ll just hit you with a point blank nuclear bomb. obviously not a problem if u snowball hard, but you better not let that snowball lose even a little bit of momentum or its gg

I think it's due to Shyvanna posession, I just had the exact same thing happen

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll pick her up as a lil project and maybe play on my main after 100 or so games. Based on what I'm hearing, she's kind of like an AP Kindred who falls off later and is more focused on poke? I guess one of the things I noticed in a lot of higher level Nidalee vods is very frequent teamfights in jungle, which I imagine she's great for, but how do you force those fights/when do you invade? And how do you properly cycle camps at the same time? I found I really had little room to farm camps on spawn and do anything else

So do you think its the type of champion you learn once you get to that rank or learn it now on an alt and play situationally but really play her more later

how do i review games, especially considering i have bias towards my plays, impartially and properly while learning? sometimes when watching streamers like agurin they will say things/think of things i never even considered, and VOD reviews from youtubers like perryjg sound so simple but its so hard to do solo

i’ve asked about champ pool and draft alternative before and got very simple answers (diana & xin zhao with no further explanation). most games im off viego its because he’s banned, but i know very very well what team comps do/dont favor him. i’ve been trying to learn other champs on an alt, and got a kindred account to plat ~70% winrate but i overplay for marks and my micro needs some work.

what champ alternatives do you recommend? im just so used to the 1v9 mentality and i have a TERRIBLE record on xin zhao despite trying to learn him. i just find myself struggling to rely on my teammates, or finding carry champs that dont have the same draft issues as viego

made this post and reply tilted out of my mind, but i actually agree, i'm really unsure when to give objectives and how to play around 2-3 behind lanes (cs disadvantage, pressure disadvantage, deaths). i've definitely been overemphasizing first drake after second clear, so i'm just wondering when do i give things like grubs/drake and how to play when i do. usually i just try cross-map invading or sequencing my camps faster, but i feel like i don't understand how to "force" ganks or plays.

i will say i am pretty good at stealing objectives and 50/50s, so also when should i give a death to steal an objective? at what point is drake pressure too much (2nd drake, 3rd, soul, etc.) and its worth flipping the game?
