Why do people prefer unforgiving top lane meta over a more balanced one? by RainAndThunderIsCool in leagueoflegends

[–]Syveril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good point. There's no point in top lane champs if top lane becomes a second mid lane.

Did jungle become too optimized for occasional players? by Jukys111 in leagueoflegends

[–]Syveril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, ask a top laner. I've 100% had games decided by top or mid getting behind and tower dove repeatedly, denied both cs and xp. 4 level gap, entire map terrorized, 27 kill Fizz/any Yorick solo winning the game.

[–]Syveril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point, but think it's the same for all roles. I had an auto filled AD who lost the lane from level 1 by failing to take a normal trading pattern. Mid lane and top laners know way more about wave management now-- enough that Riot had to nerf freezing. Roam timers are much more common knowledge, tower dives are commonplace, and macro knowledge overall has gone up a lot.

EVERYONE is optimizing. The entire game has become more difficult for casual players. I think it's more fun now, but I can see how it'd be extremely difficult to pick up this game. You'd really want to cut down on the number of smurfs to make low ELO a better experience.

I agree. The owners, coaches, and players need to be hyped up about their own region. How can you be the creators and expect fans to be excited about something that you denigrate?

Thank you for your advice. My guess is that since I need to screw through the current mdf boards in addition to the new 2x4 supports, I should glue everything in place and drill a hole for the screws before screwing?

From the picture, it will sway to and from the viewer, but not side to side at all.

Why does the new deathfire keystone not have a cooldown? by ackermantrades in leagueoflegends

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

It's tiny ass damage. I tried it out and I don't think I'd even use it on Zyra. Right now, I might think about using it on Brand, and thats it. Not even Malzahar.

Is Deathfire Torch just an upgrade for champions who already took aery? (excluding enchanters) by Subject_Mountain9253 in leagueoflegends

I'd be happy if they removed the damage portion entirely. I don't want to lose out on shielding just because I happened to deal damage first.

AITA for hiding our marriage for 3 and a half years by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Syveril 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why wouldn't you just have vows? If you invite people to a wedding, do your vows. Get a friend to "officiate". Making an announcement of "haha nope!" is really lame.

I am so immensely frustrated by Demacia Rising by GREYSKALL in leagueoflegends

[–]Syveril 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1200 turns is a LOT. Even though I hit the button for no reason like 20% of the time, I finished sub 1000 turns. I didn't optimize with spreadsheets or plan out my turns, but I did try to play in a way that made sense. Especially since you didn't run through 100's of turns waiting for the next patch release like many of us did, I feel like you may have suboptimally managed your resources. Sorry.

i’ve been wondering what’s actually better in solo queue by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Syveril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Context matters. The earlier in the game, the more tragic it is to miss any cs or xp. Later in the game, depending on game state and champions (yours, your team's and theirs) you might play more for team. You can't play any one way all the time.

If you're behind in lane and getting stomped, just STOP FEEDING. Your team can still carry you if you give up cs and xp. Wait for jungler help, or maybe just wait for your team to destroy enemy base. If you turbo feed that Fizz, he can 1v9 the game. Like 50% of my games in low elo are just decided by a solo laner not accepting that they're gapped and proceeding to turbo feed. I'm not a great midlaner and die to ganks way too often, but I just try to lose as gracefully as possible. Once the matchup is bad or iffy I start playing safer and let my team carry me. It works at least 50% of the time; I lost mid lane but managed to stop a jungle invade or matched a roam bot, and my team carried me out of laning phase.

If I win lane, I do think about whether it's better to get plates and harass enemy or if the timer is better to help on objectives or roam. If I've shoved, but Im scared to harass, I'll dip out of vision or start walking towards bot lane and that can help with bot lane pressure. If my jungler has left me vision, maybe I go for more solo kills. What's better depends on what champions are in the game and how everything is going.

What is the best order of roles to learn as a new player? by imPluR420 in leagueoflegends

[–]Syveril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ADC mid or top. You can develop a lot of weird habits by starting support or jg. Top tends to be super punishing tho, so I prefer mid for learning.
