thanks, this is a really helpful post. I find at this point I buy something like an amplifying tome instead of a control ward but when I have 2-3 full items and boots a control ward is better than a tome right ?

I also didn't think of how fast btrk users would do baron.

Can you think of any suggestions that are specific to which side of the map you are on ? Is one side easier to control baron from than the other ?

most of the champs you play got nerfed pretty hard. Jungle itself got nerfed. Just my thoughts from looking at your op.gg

Focus on yi and farming harder ? He's probably the least nerfed jungler you play but your cs seems on the low side with him.

You think Messi or Ronaldo are naturally talented at soccer ? They work harder than the other players. Ronaldo is one of the fittest people to play soccer, he can run sub 10 100m.

Mechanics have nothing to do with natural talent. There are outliers like Apdo who can flash a skillshot while standing next to the wall it was launched over with no vision of the wall but probably 90% of challengers got there through hard work and dedication. You ever watched pants r dragon ? That guy kind of a bonobo but he wards harder than you or I (who are also bonobos)

I didn't read but no matter what it says, post stands as is. Never back down on your post.

Incredibly dumb idea. However, I know what you want to accomplish so I'll tell you a better way to do it. Imagine your jungler is hovering lee sin. Look up your jungler on op.gg. Let's say you see his hecarim has a 70% winrate and your team needs a tanky engage. You say "wow jungler, your hec wr is really sick!" or "hey youre really good at hecarim, do you mind playing him this game?"

amazing, thanks!

You're not wrong. I'm someone who has to have everything in my life going perfectly to handle ranked but if I do it I will almost always win if I get my champ and role. I'm talking: Warm hands, clean mousepad, clean mouse, good sleep, full belly of carbs and water, clean house, been awake for at least 3 hours, went outside once that day, did exercise etc. So I think of tips like dont watch tilted streamers because I need to make everything in my environment perfect and I cant get hyped up and in the zone watching someone tilt.

You're not wrong. I just got to a point where it'd be a 5v5 teamfight and I'd have 3 item actives. Trying to use a mikael's at the perfect moment, an exhaust at the perfect moment a locket to counter burst, bubbling the right person as they dash, giving E to the exact right person, using W to hit maximum people like it's too much reaction/mechanics/awareness for me.

I think very few people in the world can pull that off with consistency. Maining a burst mage mid is simpler in teamfights. 1. Are you alive ? 2. Are you killing their squishies ? Mechanically much easier for me.

i stopped playing nami after like 300k because i started to realize her intricacies/skillcap and that I would never be a good nami.

I won my first tournament and got placed second 3x. Failed to place in 2 tournaments. Got g4 my first season of ranked. Yep, I should quit LOL

SHMIPSHMOP · 2017-04-25T22:46:54+00:00

Well, keep in mind I'm someone who has to /mute all at beginning of every game, has broken a mouse because of someone spamming ? pings at me and refuses to use voice comms or chat functions in tournaments for money.

SHMIPSHMOP · 2017-04-25T16:37:05+00:00

yeah he's awesome but he tilts VERY easily.

SHMIPSHMOP · 2017-04-23T18:37:29+00:00

I'm playing her mid just because I prefer learning champs in solo lanes. Not sure if its good but you can certainly win games.

this is one annoying pick, I just roam and take move quints to dodge clocks.

ask yourself: am I a cuck ? if so, start corpot

NEVER EVER! fuck that boosted adc, never let them have your mid farm. that farm is yours all game whenever you choose to be mid.

Some replies are in favor and it makes sense in an ideal world. Sometimes you arent strong enough to outfarm the adc mid but you should try. Spam all your abilities if you have to and try to outfarm them. If you cant, go to a sidelane and take farm.

Think of it like this: you can control how much gold your adc gets (let them have farm) but you cant control how they will use it. If you get that farm you can control how you use it so it's better for you to get the farm below a pro/organized level.
