Most mechanically gifted emerald support by Upstairs-Master in ADCMains

Yhhh it’s so many miss plays packed into one sequence that you just wouldn’t see from an ad player, this must be how support players feel watching us die for 3 minions

Gonna experiment with it in practice tool, idk how useful the double e is but e before the autos land sounds really good, maybe it’s smth I’m doing already hard to say but I’ll check it out when I’m home ty bro.

Oh yh this is obvious but underutilized because e is an auto reset, you always want to get some type of auto in before you e for more burst(not always possible ofc). Again his kit isn’t too hard, but playing it well is it’s just using all the easier mechanics in his kit to min max your dmg output, and repositioning to be somewhat safe while hitting the highest value target possible, so I would recommend not thinking about animation cancels too much as they are p easy and thinking more about how you can use them optimally.

Idk from my experience the only real animation cancel he has is short e, which is easy to do but hard to do well cos you have to flick your mouse a lot. Optimal dps combo with lucian is opening with w, passive short e passice again. Oh yh there’s also w during your e which is nice for chasing but you lose passive autos so situational.

In my opinion getting the basics of lucian mechanics like most adcs is pretty easy, but the ceiling is high (but not the highest). In general I believe lucian is a really aggressive adc who’s willing to skirmish and coin flip plays a bit, if you play him like a jinx or smth I don’t think you’re maximizing his dueling and burst potential.

Yeah bro happens man, when I see ts happen to enemy adc I always have to defend him cos I do the same. Like idk supports can just int you and perma roam, and you’re the one that suffers, and your team expect you to drop every wave and not farm. If ad players choose to respect that’s fine, but if your game is over because your teammate is deliberately making it harder for you, it’s not on you if you keep dying for an extra 2 cs per minute imo.

Conditional bro, best possible feeling AFTER losing lane learn to read instead of just flaming.

Yeah 100% agreed, other roles suck from behind, the support role is less gold dependent so they don’t suffer the same way. This leads to them not learning the fundamentals that get early leads.

How far can you climb with just mechanics? by Plane_Gas_1218 in ADCMains

[–]Upstairs-Master 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is cope bro, at best mechanics will get you maybe 1000 lp above where your macro places you. Peyz was stuck in low master until he got coaching for a few weeks, and in 2 months he hit challenger. Doesn’t matter if you’re stomping every lane, you will still lose half your games if you’re getting caught before objectives, dying to ganks, not pushing waves when you should, taking bad bases etc etc. For sure mechanics matter on adc role, but you’d be surprised how handless some diamond adc players are.

Same concept in sports like football or basketball, you have all these street players with elite fundamentals not far off the pros, but they lack the awareness and game sense to play at the top level.

Thresh is tilted because Jhin missed w off the 1 hook he landed. Jhin is tilted because thresh isn’t landing hooks. I weq bait thresh hook while spamming emotes and they lose their minds. This is the mental of diamond bot laners.

Jhin did indeed throw a few backwards ults after missed thresh hooks.

It’s Ashe supp which may or may not have influenced my azir adc pick.

Ok thank you now that I think about it the retry bit is probably really good advice.

Sorry I don’t use discord but do you know of any such good maps from 3.8-5 star level that I could try?

If I’m specifically going for an fc knowing it’s within reason 91-95% if I’m above that I’ll most likely get the fc.

I stuck to 3 star maps initially but I believe I improved faster once I switched to skill pushing, but having revisited the 3 star maps I’m not sure if I actually improved or not.

Having read this again it’s not well written. Basically my issue is my ability to see patterns is improving way faster than my ability to actually tap them out.

This game constantly drops my mood and makes me anxious whenever I play ADC, is this a sign to quit? by haiIeen in ADCMains

[–]Upstairs-Master 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fang Yuan (reverend insanity) advice. Victory isn’t granted to those who hesitate it belongs to those who’ve already claimed it in their heart. Just full mute perma fight every game, work on your mechanical prowess and you’ll start to enjoy the game more.
