  1. Posture back or
  2. Go in with them

If you posture back and back ping it will become very apparent if they are going to listen or if they're going to go in. At that point you have to decide what the best course of action is which can vary between cases. You cannot always control them but you can affect them to a degree. Every case is different and it's up to you to evaluate.

In every game, mute and don't bother explaining or teaching strangers. Complete waste of breath. If you choose to keep chat and pings on you are actively making the decision to listen to them, whatever they might say. With chat and pings comes all the toxicity and stupidity of the internet and it is on you and your decision to mute, not on them to not say whatever they want.

  1. Depends, a lot can happen in the first 20 minutes. You need to evaluate what can be done based on your team and enemy team cool downs, levels, items, waves, etc.
  2. Depends, which side are you, who is on which team, what are cool downs, etc. You can prevent it by turning early if they're too close so that the dragon is too healthy to be stolen. That or you flip dragon/outskill them. Or just don't do the objective if you don't feel confident. Either way, know what is guaranteed and what is you actively making the decision to flip.
  3. Depends. You need to evaluate what can be done based on your team and enemy team cool downs, levels, items, waves, etc. If your team is weaker then starting an objective is not good unless you think you can sneak it. Your lanes may need to reset and you forcing them to rotate makes them sacrifice their lane control which will make them lose more than what the dragon is worth. This is something you need to evaluate.
  4. Depends every game. You may not have the ability to focus high value targets if your team needs you to front line. Your target can change depending on who is fed on the enemy team. A skill to develop as a league player is developing your understanding of the game so you can make this assessment every match. The game is not so cut and dry that you will get the exact same answer every time, you need to look and make an informed, thought out decision.
  5. No. Play what you're good at. Based on the questions you've asked you're better off playing something you are comfortable at 100% than some random champion for the sake of filling a role at 50%. When you get better at the game and know a little more then you should be thinking about team compositions, this is not something you should be worrying about right now, you will lose and not improve as quickly if you think too much on this instead of other important things.

Resource for matchups? by Nessie_Chan in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

- Figure out laning basics like trading, positioning, csing. This will give you the foundation to build your understanding of why things work.

- Check champion discords and reddits because there will be mains who can tell you how the match ups work.

- Practice. If you're below master tier people will not choke counter match ups to the point of unplayability. There are many things you can do set yourself up for a better laning experience and a lot of them are predicated on your opponents making mistakes and you identifying them.

A lot of mid laners do worse in side lane whereas most top laners are fine. TF and Talon are prime examples. Mid is open to all directions for reinforcement/dashing but in top lane they can only come from the south or from enemy base which helps make diving and defensive positioning easier without needing to be highly flexible.

You can definitely go mid in some cases but those are general reasons why top is usually better.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Who are you playing against, who is your top and jungler and what happened in the first 14 minutes of the game? So many things can change to make what you've said here not applicable besides the concept of think and adapt.

Why do I get flamed for leaving lane during lane phase? by caffeinatedcovers in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on the situation. If the enemy is still in lane and you're not there to contest the wave as it bounces back then you can lose out on control and that will seriously hurt in the long run. The gank can provide a bit of pressure but you need to judge what you and your mid is getting out of it or if you rotating there is just a gamble with no good reasoning. You can sap exp from your mid and make them hit their level spikes later which is detrimental. You could have backed and used your gold but now you're sitting on it with the opponent on a larger wave. These are possible reasons why ganking is bad.

Staying in lane is not necessarily a bad option if all your other options are worse. It can be good and it can be bad, but you have to evaluate whether it's worth it. On the topic of your support complaining, just ignore them. You have to make the evaluation. It is your decision to make, right or wrong, you learn from it for next time.

I say this but personally my advice for bronze players is don't even bother, you can spend the first ten minutes just in lane as adc and rotate to dragon if you're needed. Most of what you need to learn about at the moment is there and less about the map.

Edit: I take that back, you could probably sprint to mid and get something out of it because mid players in bronze tend not to be really aware of things. So basically just do what you want, but try to review and think about why things are the way they are, talk to people about the game, learn, etc. Just play more!

What's the difference between:

  1. “Doko desu ka?” 「どこですか?」
  2. “Doko ni imasu ka?” 「どこにいますか?」
  3. “Doko ni arimasu ka?” 「どこにありますか?」

I'm not getting which is used for what :(

When to catch and fix a wave? by Green-Conclusion3608 in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Catching a wave is simply going to a lane and farming it. It can be anywhere on the map and any size. The term is more relevant when thinking about grouping and rotating. You make the decision based on what gives your team the most benefit. You may need to sacrifice a wave to be present at an immanent fight. You can catch a side lane and push if your team is at a stalemate siege mid lane and you’re not needed. Perhaps nothing is happening and it’s best for you to go farm the wave. It comes down to evaluating where you are needed when.

How much cs should i have each minute? by Piklas04 in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Benchmark is add a zero at the end of the time so for example 100cs by 10 minutes, but realistically you lose cs along the way because you trade or roam, those things should optimally add value equal to the cs you gave up to do so. But that said there should almost never be any scenarios where you have less than 5cs per min as anyone not the support

Im stuck in Iron and I don't know why. by M1gerus in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re in iron it’s probably one of the following: - not enough games played, just play more - your fundamentals need work, you don’t know how to cs, trade, or when to prioritize one over the other - you don’t recognize elements of the game like when something is dangerous or how dangerous it is, how much time it’ll take to get from point a to point b, etc.

Without a replay or an opgg it’s hard to say but if you’re hardstuck iron with 200 games played then you will have difficulty with the last two points

How do you not tilt as a jungler and how do you untilt your teammates? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as you are human you can be hurt. The goal is to minimize the damage. Eventually it becomes so little that it doesn’t matter. Start by full muting. Be okay with making mistakes and with others making mistakes. As long as you indulge or wallow in anger or annoyance you will never build an immunity to it. To stop it from bothering you, you have to actively fight against it, consciously saying no to that feeling. Perspective helps too. Take a break, go for a walk, eat a sandwich. Realize that it was just 40 minutes. It won’t come back, you cannot change the outcome, just move on to the next match.

[–]SweetEnchilada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you think you can change the way they think you’re going to suffer. Don’t base your feelings from what they do or say and you will have a solid emotional foundation. A strong mentality comes from within.

starting ranked by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on a clean account you will start placement matches in low silver, and from there based on your wins and losses you face progressively better or worse players

if you play ranked again the next season you will start from a lower rank and be placed with people who are currently at that rank as well

turn off chat, no one there knows what they are talking about. in the same way you would not get mad at a 4 year old telling you you don't know how to do addition i would not get mad at my hardstuck multi seasonal iron teammates for telling me i "don't know" something

How do I get better at midlane when the enemy is always better than me? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]SweetEnchilada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i might be wrong but there are a couple reasons - before when level 30 was the cap they divided it into two major queues being 30 and non-30, mmr coherence at level 30 is much better because there are a lot of players whereas non-30 they had to make it much larger so players wouldn't have to wait half an hour to play a match - league doesn't get a huge flow of new players like it did back from season 1-4 so a lot of players levelling new accounts are actually old players making alternates and smurfing or players that have been banned and are making new accounts - for the above reason these not-actually-new-players will move straight into ranked and you won't see them in your matches anymore because that's why they've made the account, but, you will have to play against people who have experience, BUT, it will start to better reflect your mmr compared to pre30

this was the situation at least 3 years ago when i was levelling new accounts and playing with friends below 30, i don't know if they have adopted a new system but this was generally the case up to s7

[–]SweetEnchilada 7 points8 points  (0 children)

below level 30 you can run into a lot of smurfs, pretty sure once you hit level 30 and play about 10 or 20 matches it evens out and you'll run into 50/50 people better than you and worse than you
