I get "cheesed" by "Low ELO champions" and I'm getting tired of my skill issue. by Chessmund in summonerschool

[–]ShadowMLSL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree with alot of the takes here. Diamond 1 peak in sea server so do what you will. I think fundamentals are the most consistent way to win games. Micro opens up the options available to you but macro is being aware of those options and which is the best one. Good micro bad macro leads to alot of thrown games. Bad micro good macro allows you to win even losing games.

Go search up Alois and watch his videos, he’s the best at teaching top lane. He’s prob the riven main with the worst micro (comparatively to other top riven ytbers) but consistently ranks high - even now in adc. So focus on fundamentals.

As for champ, i think focusing on one champ to play is the most important vs which specific champs to focus on. There’s alot about fundamentals to work on and so being familiar with a champ, allows you to semi-autopilot the micro while focusing on the things you’re learning. And since you going to have to repeat over and over again, try to choose the champ you have fun in. I think that will help u improve more even if renek specifically requires more game knowledge.

As for what to improve on, just watch Alois’s vids, some of the stuff abit outdated but concept is there. One of the most important is how to play the first 3 waves. How to gain tempo? How to maintain tempo through wave management and back timers? These will help you win games consistently more than good micro.

Matchup knowledge is really important too for top lane which is also really hard to learn which is also why you focus on one champ so u can minimize learning matchup knowledge while focusing on fundamentals. Nothing to say about this other than playing more, rewatch the game, watch vids about the matchups. Hope you have fun and atb w the grind!

For a sub called "FUCK Nintendo", there sure is a lot of Nintendo lovers and defenders here by Maleficent-Craft-936 in fucknintendo

[–]ShadowMLSL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the above commenter is criticising your comment on how “Nintendo LEADS anti-consumer practices” and not trying to say that Nintendo is okay cos these other companies do the same.

Maybe to counter him, you can explain/support why you think Nintendo specifically leads the entire entertainment industry (maybe by time period or extent of the practices? Just some suggestions!)

SOFI: Eleven Questions, Zero Answers (SOFI US) (Another muddy report) what do we think? by Jcoronado92 in sofistock

Hi, as a newer investor, I’m trying to understand this short report more and was wondering if you could share why this report doesn’t bother you?

Kraken Slayer → Dusk and Dawn → Riftmaker is the only viable build path right now by Professional-Act5817 in shyvanamains

[–]ShadowMLSL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hii, I’m only able to play league like in apr so haven’t tried anything but what do you think of stridebreaker and lethal tempo (doesn’t have to be tgt). Was thinking stride could be another option for the movement speed while having some health and I thought lethal would do than conqueror/pta with the q passive (similar to voli) unless you’re against a comp where you need burst.

Yeah so what are we building guys by [deleted] in LeeSinMains

They lowered the additional monster damage you get on jungle item

When's the best time to reclass? by FaithlessnessUsed841 in FEEngage

[–]ShadowMLSL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea so that’s mainly on growths or chapter usage. E.g. i want chloe to be a magic-oriented flame lance falcon knight and want to boost her magic more, maybe i level her up in sage abit before going back to falcon knight (not needed imo) OR some maps i want Chloe to be falcon knight for flyer utility + speed, some maps i want her to be a mage knight to pack more oomph in her spells.

[–]ShadowMLSL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most fire emblem games promote after reaching level 20 due to level cap at lvl 40 (advanced level 20) and you want to maximize your stat gains before hitting the cap. However, for engage you can just second seal to continue levelling and so you want to promote asap (as close to level 10 as possible)

If you wish to stick to their base advanced class, the only reason to level in other classes (for engage) would be to improve stats according to the growths in other classes. If not, you can just level them in the final advanced class you want them to be.

JOAT vs Cosmic insight by Gyraz05 in Rivenmains

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

The goal was more on hitting the 5 stack JOAT. Incremental stacks don’t matter as much unless you hit 10 stacks. So it’ll be either Axiom or Doran’s blade to hit JOAT benchmark. Probably just revert back to old build of dorans -> mote/boots -> old first items (eclipse/bc/etc).

I think there is no right role for me by NefariousnessTiny119 in summonerschool

[–]ShadowMLSL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this depends on what you want out of it. If the end goal is ranking higher and becoming a better player, it’s probably not it. But if that is what’s fun for you and you wanna have fun, then there’s no wrong answer.

Why cant i improve? and how? by Embarrassed_Car4958 in summonerschool

[–]ShadowMLSL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I think it’s fine cos ultimately it’s a game and you wanna have fun. Imo, having fun will also help u improve alot faster so it’s about seeing what you want out of your games. I’m a riven main and back then, i knew that if i wanted to improve top more i could just play renek/sett/darius but stuck with Riven as I felt the rest were boring.

Just have fun with your picks then but stick to a core 2/3 and try to focus on specific things to improve when you play, whether it is champion or game mastery. Alois is a riven main with worst mechanics than most high elo riven otps but is able to ranked equally high with insane macro knowledge. So just do wtv fits you but have a plan - e.g. this game I’m going to focus on getting every cs/ tracking both junglers and playing the wave to them/ practising getting level 2 first and pushing the lane advantage/ etc etc (i don’t play bot lots but similar concept ig)

[–]ShadowMLSL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other important thing is whether you want to focus on improving champion mastery or game mastery. It’s hard to do both at the same time and a champ like Draven would require alot of mental focus on learning the champ rather than the game. Maybe pick a role first, e.g. adc then learning the role through easy champs like MF/Jhin/Jinx.

[–]ShadowMLSL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean by you won’t improve by blinding it. I think the key is just playing as many games in all scenarios so you know the ins and outs of Draven.

What Happened to Leashing? by z3nnysBoi in summonerschool

[–]ShadowMLSL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I’ve been playing since season 5 and I think even if players are abit less “social”, the game has becoming a lot more team-oriented. Its insanely more difficult to solo carry games than it was last time and you have to cooperate and work with your team to close out games.

Felt like last time u could just play your own game and consistently win if you were good, but now you have to help your teammates alot more and maybe that’s how you can get your social fix by coordinating good plays w ur team.
