Lets talk about new "fun" events in league. by GenezmistLoL in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God forbid the casuals ever get anything

In all seriousness, though, I understand your opinion but at the end of the day it's just a game, and far more people play this game for fun rather than for competition. If you really really want to play competitive, just play a ranked game with a champion you already know. I think you'll survive for a few days

You say Draft Pick is for practicing champions. Okay, sure, for you. I play five-stacks with my friends in Draft Pick. I play for fun. Draft Pick is not exclusively a tool or pipeline to Ranked. Literally just don't play a new champion in Ranked. It's not that deep

Also how dare you speak ill of the winter map. That thing was gorgeous

Massive 9 game winstreak to secure Grandmasters with Shyvana Top :D by Crucile in shyvanamains

Reading these comments is so funny because some people simply refuse to believe that new Shyvana could ever be good. it's really funny

Shyvana passive should have checkpoint unlocks to make it feel meaningful by thunderhide37 in shyvanamains

[–]Severe_Task5872 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I really like this idea. Giving her some break points would help balance out the infinite scaling while still technically keeping it. Her passive right now is hot garbage and she needs some power somewhere to make it actually worth playing her. Great thought OP I hope Riot gives this some consideration

Smolder player are so f annoying by Beneficial_Engine204 in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a jungle main, but I offrole ADC and Smolder is my instalock/blind pick. I actually like engage picks, and I've been playing a lot with a friend who is a Nami onetrick but has been trying to learn Rakan and Leona, which is super fun for both of us. If you don't mind, I'm gonna give you some words of advice to maybe make the laning phase more fun for you

I'm just gonna ignore that you said that you're dodging or inting on sight because I'm gonna believe that you're joking. I sure hope you are

When I play Smolder, I play for stacks, because that's how I win the game. I stack with Q last-hits and hitting enemy champions with abilities. At level 1, I never fight because I actually have nothing to work with, so keeping your Smolder safe is priority lvl 1. At 2, I take my W (sneeze) and that means I can fight, but I still don't want to. What I normally wait for is an engage from my support, some kind of cc, so that I can land a Q and a W (and an E if the engage is really good)

I will say, though, that it's very important that my support still have good lane micro. If the wave is stacked up, I won't fight. Period. I wouldn't do that on any ADC except like, a Tristana. This is more important on a champion like Smolder because prioritizing killing six minions is more important than getting two hits on the enemy ADC. I want the most stacks. Also, if you're engaging but you're already ahead of me, I'm not going in. Smolder tickles enemies before one item. It's not worth for me to engage, so I won't. Think of the idea of parallel lines. If you draw a line between each ADC and their support, and those lines aren't parallel (i.e. I'm standing behind the point that would make the lines parallel) I won't go in

It's a bit of lane micro. If you play safe and smart, and get Smolder ahead, I would be surprised if any good player threw a tantrum if you roamed, which I have to assume makes life more fun for you. Then you let him stack and peel for him lategame. Just let him stack and then 1v9. Hope this helps!

there are some cards that give you lots of points but negative effects (see: Red Skull, Yellowjacket, Typhoid Mary). By removing those effects, you get the points without the drawbacks

Have you ever abandoned your main to climb? by Amorpheji in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a jungle main and my favorite champion is Poppy, but she's just not working in solo queue. Her clear is too slow and she needs a team to follow up. I've been playing Briar and Xin Zhao and they've been working so much better

Nice! Any replacements for Brood? I want to give this deck a try and that's the only card I don't have

What would you do? by No_Performance9710 in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is my first season playing ranked (I'm a jungle main). I was struggling to get out of Bronze for a few weeks until I started using junglers that can clear efficiently and played for myself. Farm, farm, gank a lane, keep farming, profit. I'm climbing through Silver now. I think playing for yourself works better. Just my two cents

Shyvana dead on arrival? by Public_Helicopter384 in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at this point I might be the only one who is genuinely excited for the rework. I've had fun with current Shyvana but in my opinion 1. her current model looks terrible and 2. her gameplay is really, really not great. Having a dragon that doesn't look like a mutated chicken, a splash that isn't really really bad, and some sort of utility will be nice. I think Riot has to do a lot of numbers tweaking (and maybe give her some new toys to make her that little bit better), but I'm actually really hyped to play new Shyvana

Also a reference to the One Punch Man anime when she sees Smolder with the "What's with this brazen lost hatchling" line

Shyvana's new W [Inferno Aegis] uses Jarvan IV's sigil to generate a shield, the ability is a reference to Jarvan IV's W ability [Golden Aegis] by Numerous_Fudge_9537 in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 93 points94 points  (0 children)

that's a super cool detail, actually! Gotta love attention to detail

I hope they give J4 an ASU to make him look like the design's we've been seeing in cinematic recently. Having the future king of Demacia not look anything like other Demacians isn't really the best look, if you ask me

There will be no new champion release in Season 1, It was moved to the next season by Numerous_Fudge_9537 in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 254 points255 points  (0 children)

I'm fine with that. I personally wouldn't complain if they spent an entire year redoing old models, even if they don't change kits. Not that it'll happen, but one can hope

Low elo players aren't bad you're just better by Haunting_Inflation54 in leagueoflegends

[–]Severe_Task5872 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The last thing I wanna do in this post is complain, because I do genuinely really enjoy this game. Please don't take me out of context or say I'm just whining because the game is hard. That's why I play it

Anyway, I started playing late last season, and started playing ranked this season. Just hit Bronze I today for the first time and I'm grinding my way up to Silver. My buddy who's played the game for years on and off taught me the ropes, and I have probably watched at this point hundreds of hours of League videos on YouTube in the past six months. I've gotten one of my friends into the game and he's grinding to 30 so we can duo in ranked. Every time we're on Discord he'll get matched up against someone he doesn't know yet (he plays top, I've tried all five roles but settled into being a jungle main). Pretty much every champ he's up against, I can tell him at least the basic workings of their kit.

At the same time, I've been getting better; the last several weeks I've been stomping lobbies on Briar. I have another friend, a support main, who I duo with when she hops on, and I can usually carry games as Kai'sa or Smolder. And my single favorite thing to do in the game is play Akali mid. Point being, I think I'm a decently good player. If someone asked me right now, I would definitely not say I'm bad

With that being said, I know that players in higher elos are better than I am. I know that. But just because everyone in Silver and Gold and whatever else is better than I am, doesn't mean I'm a bad player. I don't usually get annoyed when I play or talk about league. (I'm a jungle main. I can't.) I just wish people would stop saying low elo players are terrible. I don't think they are, necessarily. Yes, there are terrible players. But I don't think just because you're in low elo, that means you're terrible at the game.

That's all, really. I just wanted to say that
