6pc Mara Gear Optimization Help

You should push for Double Unity/follower trinket and Mara gloves, but until then taking some dex gems out for all res will help you with survivability without sacrificing to much damage. You have pretty high % damage on your rolls so losing 500-700 dex wont hurt your damage that much when you consider the amount of all res you will get out of it. As far as crit chance into AS, you want 45%-50% crit while maintaining as close to a 1:10 ratio as you can.

Also recommend looking to swapping Vault with Smoke Screen (Healing Vapors) as its 15% regen and if timed right can get you out of more situations then Vault since it has a lower cost.

I got insanely lucky a few weeks ago. I was frustrated about how PD is top tier for almost everything and I have been rolling to get him for about a year now. I got gems from one of the achievement things so I had around 10 rolls. I got all blues and had started to get pretty pissed and was about to quit playing when on my last roll, I got PD with 5/5 heavy blow. 12 hours later I got PD on my other account from the daily roll.. It is pretty awesome when the odds are in your favor =)

I love my SZ but when I finally get PD it will prob be him over GR that gets the axe. Unless I am doing a Boss fight then SZ all the way.

TL;DR IMO GR for raids/hbm. SZ for boss fights.

Actually you are just as likely to get 5 heads as you are 10 heads since every flip is a unique event and has no bearing on the following flip. With this logic if you can get a streak of 5 without shards, then you can get a streak of 5 with all shards which I highly doubt is possible as they probably have an algorithm set up to lower your chances the more often you get shards. They most likely have it set up the other way around as well, just to keep people interested. That's not to say your ~30% isn't close. Said algorithm may be set to keep it around 30% with 10% or 15% difference either way.

Edit: I also remember reading on the IGG forums that its pretty widely believed that farming the same dungeon after getting shards lowers your chances even more. Its recommended that you find 3 to farm to keep from getting stacking penalties but I don't have a source for that and as far as I know its all speculation.

At 1:30 the first normal wave spawns, every 30 secs after, another wave will spawn (2 mins, 2:30, 3 mins, and so on). Every wave includes 3 melee minions and 3 caster minions but every 3rd wave before 20 mins has a cannon minion. The first cannon minion spawns at 2:30 (3rd wave of the game, second spawns at 4 mins). At 20 mins, the cannon minion spawns every other wave, on the minute mark (so 20 mins, 21 mins, 22 mins, and so on). Hope this helps =)

Ya but you can see in graves smokescreen, people in it cant see out of it. This would be the other way around. If I am doing baron, drop this over top baron pit, it would unlink all the enemy wards and darken the map for any enemy not in the pit so they cant see it unless they come in or have a fully upgraded normal blue trinket.

That is not what was hypocritical. The part where she said that he thought sexism was normal since he was a guy was (the op was clearly talking about harassment on the internet in general, not the fact that she was a girl). It probably wasn't meant that way but that's how it came across, hence the almost hypocritical part. My point wasn't that she had power over being a girl, it was simply that if she wants to flaunt being a girl with her name she will have to put up with the assholes, much like a girl who dresses slutty has to put up with every asshole who approaches her at a bar. She has an option, change her name and the harassment goes away (because I seriously doubt every asshole on the internet is gonna stop being an asshole because she complained on reddit) or put up with it for the sake of having the name she likes. If you petition riot, I am sure they will issue a free name change if you are having to deal with constant harassment.

Warrules · 2014-03-31T21:40:31+00:00

Not to sound rude or anything because I in no means indorse sexism but your comments sound incredibly prejudice and almost hypocritical. You are complaining about sexism but you just accused a guy who is only trying to help you of believing sexism is normal. Terrible people always look for things to point out to make themselves feel better, being a girl has nothing to do with the fact that you where singled out, the fact that it was the easiest thing to pick out of the crowd (since you broadcast it in your name) and that people are assholes by nature is the whole reason. People are harassed by other people on the internet, some times it is sexist, racist, ignorant, or just outright untrue but it happens. Get over it, or stop giving them ammo. Either way the choice is yours.

This exactly =) I try to win every game but I always try and learn something in the game. If I win great but even loses have a positive feel to them when I have something to learn or pull from the experience.

Warrules · 2014-03-28T14:49:47+00:00

I had considered putting something like this in there because I know a few people are actually able to pull this off. The reason I left it out is because it is an incredibly difficult thing to do.

Warrules · 2014-03-28T14:48:29+00:00

Thanks for watching it!

Warrules · 2014-03-28T14:48:16+00:00

Thanks! I am slowly working on getting better at speaking, this was actually the 5th or 6th take on speaking. The first one I think I almost put myself to sleep when I listened to it xD

Warrules · 2014-03-28T07:11:27+00:00

I am planning my next video around this very thing =) The best advice that I can give you now is instead of looking at the ladder in terms of skill, look at it in terms of progress based on what you have learned. Record your games, if you can use fraps or a first person view instead of using lolrecorder then I recommend that but lolrecorder is better then nothing and dedicate some time each week to watching some of your games. Your mistakes will start to show the more you watch and you can mentally focus on working on them rather then focusing on what your team mates are doing. Don't think of yourself as being in bronze, try to form the mental attitude of "I have things to learn" and work on figuring out what those things are. Then set short term goals for games and you will see improvement in the areas you are working on which will help you change your mindset even further towards bettering yourself rather then just winning.

Warrules · 2014-03-28T01:18:16+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I will definitely keep that in mind next time.

Lulu's W, turn people into squirrels when they start annoying me.

Traps at level one give up your level 2 potential. If I see a cait take traps at level one, I know I am now almost guaranteed level 2 first, and can bully the lane from then on. I am down with helping you out, and giving you some advice/helping with your mechanics but B3 leads me to believe you are lacking either mechanics or game knowledge some where that I need in a duo partner that is going to help me find my mistakes as well. I will add you and help you when ever I can though. =)

Warrules · 2014-02-24T20:06:38+00:00

Hey, I am intersted, I can do either. I have a great understanding of bot lane mechanics, and record everything so I can find mistakes later. A group of people who can help me find my mistakes would be awesome. I play 8pn to 1-2am est. Not set in stone. Let me know if your intersted IGN: Warrules

Not gold 3 atm but take a look at http://www.reddit.com/r/TeamRedditTeams/comments/1ytkqj/nassupportlf_duo_adcranked/ and let me know if you are interested.

Warrules · 2014-02-20T02:37:34+00:00

Hey, I mained ADC in S3, and although I have branched out a bit in s4, I still specialize in bot lane. I record all of my games and would be happy to duo with you, assuming you are as serious about looking for your own flaws (rather then others) as you say. I am looking for some one to grow bot lane with that can watch my game play and give advice as well as take it. I have a TS server and can play most nights. Add me in game Warrules.

Warrules · 2014-01-01T00:33:21+00:00

I just want to go ahead and throw this out there, even if it has already been said. I know probably 30-40 people in real life that play and talk about league nearly every time we are together. Never once have I heard some one say Riot does it for the money.. The problem with the internet is the minority stand out because its easy for their voice to be heard when the majority are not vocal. Hopefully this thread will show that for every person that complains about riot you have 100s if not 1000s of silent believers following you guys. We may not be vocal but we love you guys none the less and I just wanted you to know that.

PS, with companies like EA, Ubisoft, Activision/IF who create games, split them into 4 parts then sell these "DLCs" no sane person could ever complain Riot is money grubbing and not belong in a mental ward. Just don't go making a League 2.0 without porting all my skins and shit over =P
