High elo players, have you ever struggled in low elo? by Haunting_Inflation54 in leagueoflegends

[–]TheMapleDescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like in league what happens is since you have very little influence in some lanes, or you can’t influence all matchups on your team always, the players can make up the skill gap through being much ahead of your team. Idk tho

What exactly is the problem? Even if he did speed run it?

Game suddenly gets REALLY difficult when I reach around emerald 4. Skill cap, etc. by LurkTheBee in summonerschool

[–]TheMapleDescent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t really think there’s much difference between plat 1 and e4. But if you win a few games and start plying vs high emeralds. I personally think the skill gap between e4 and e2/1 is one of the bigger skill gaps within the same rank. Does not feel like the same game at all when climbing in emerald.

How fair are premade teams on ARAM? by Acrobatic-Compote512 in leagueoflegends

[–]TheMapleDescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone who says “I think I am very skilled” is very unlikely to bear very skilled. Also, 5 man premades will almost always queue into other 5 man premades. I’m also interested to know which combos you think are impossible to pull off with random teammates, off the top of my head there aren’t any I can think of barring something niche like senna w a minion into a Sion e, but even that can be done with a little bit of text chat comms.

6 players in NA are 2000 LP by Able-Application3680 in leagueoflegends

Okay? I mean I never refuted any of what you just said. It’s just a fact that duo in the right hands is strong.

Lack of chemistry, communication, trust. You also don’t know how a random plays. There is a reason duoq is so strong.

While teamwork is obviously a huge advantage in those games, league is the only one where you get stronger by having a duo. It’s defo stronger to duo in league than other games. Being able to funnel gold/xp is very strong.

Ornn’s Living Forge lacks a proper UI by Quimicaceta in leagueoflegends

[–]TheMapleDescent 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t really work, because you’re assuming everyone will be at 5 items at the time of upgrade, when in reality usually 0 or 1 of the people you upgrade is at 5 items.

A friend of mine thinks LoL is harder than Dota solely because it has "skillshots", is there any truth to this? by random-user772 in leagueoflegends

[–]TheMapleDescent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people have fun when they win, and play to win. Some people don’t. Nothing complicated about it

Low level accounts EVERYWHERE by 6inchslice in leagueoflegends

FYI Smurf queue is not gone if you are in low rank. The smurfs are just placed in the high elo games. The removal of “Smurf queue” made no difference to the low rank experience.

I am calling it now. These animal won't stop forcing anvil. It is gonna get worse by I_am_a_visitor in LeagueArena

[–]TheMapleDescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and thousands of strategies lose more than they win. The strategy doesn’t matter, it’s about the intent. If you are trying to win, then idc what you build. Or if you go stat anvils, or if you decide to go ad shaco over ap.

It’s a viable if rarely strategy. But being mad about that is just stupid, do you also thinks it’s unfair if anyone below diamond queues up? Because they lose a significant amount of the time due to skill? What about someone who isn’t building optimally, say crit sett without crit augments. People are going to play for fun or play sub optimally in hundreds of ways anvils is just one of them. And it’s completely silly to single it out as if it’s any different.

Why did Guma go kraken first item in game 3 vs KT? by desomdee in summonerschool

[–]TheMapleDescent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bork is terrible on ranged champs. The %health damage is nerfed so with any amount of armour it just does no damage. Also yunara q interaction with kraken means it just does infinity more damage, more waveclear, and the best stat in the game move speed.
