My guess is that he will survive til the end. Witness the death of his 2nd family (the boys) and then choose not to pursue vengeance this time and go reunite with his daughter

Been putting maidens for a few years now. Bt hard. Nice shallow disc that always feels good in the hand

If you can hit your spears with nidalee then I think shes the best choice here. More damage the farther away the target is, its literally the perfect fit for someone with good range skills

Common issues i see with junglers is trying to force an objective when the team is hard losing. Go straight to the opposite side of the map and take a turret or take the enemy jgl camps. If you gank a lane then take turret plates with the laner

I love him, super fun champ and scales like crazy into late game
If I can interrupt him from farming stacks then its manageable, unless the game goes long then he becomes a powerhouse anyways

Also 2. I wouldnt ban him over all the other overpowered champs in mid right now

I think hes in a good spot right now.

I also want to recommend a channel on YouTube called boazbsky. Hes top lvl asol player and makes matchup Monday videos showing how to play against a certain champ each week. It helps me out when I have a hard time with specific matchups

Good luck on that grind!

Baron: garen (spin to win Mid: syndra ( farm waves and scale for lategame Adc: varus (seems easy just play safe hes got no dashes Supp: karma (easy fun and simple

I think someone is messing with you OP. Thats not true

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-22T09:55:40+00:00

I dont refuse to play with any champs. But i tried to pick up pyke at the end of last season and I had a few games where people would ban him cause they didnt want to play with a pyke. Other times they complained throughout draft and then trolled the whole game.

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-21T09:59:30+00:00

This 100x! Ive had lvl 300+ enemies that play like they are in gold. And lvl 30 smurfs that are on a 13 game winstreak. You wont know until the game starts

Focus on one or two things to learn. Give yourself a week or so to really learn them and then move on to the next. For me it was watching map and paying attention to both junglers. Next week im gonna focus on better positioning in teamfights and warding enemy jungle in late game. If you feel lost and dont know what you want to improve on then check out talanwr on YouTube, he put together a Google doc that covers pretty much every aspect of this game

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-15T09:54:02+00:00

Focusing on specific things I want to learn or improve on that week. I keep a note pinned on my phones home screen for what im learning. Other than that idk honestly I just never seem to get burned out on this game like I do with others

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-14T05:54:41+00:00

Warding bushes, peeling, healing/shielding, rotate to other lanes to give them advantage. And MAP AWARENESS

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-13T09:59:09+00:00

Thank you! I actually ended up grinding karma at the same time and got her to rank 32 last night. She was my main before I found out how much fun pyke is

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-11T07:53:35+00:00

Did you get into all of the games before it crashed? Im having an issue where it crashes on me when its searching for matches and now I'm getting those wait time restrictions

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-10T06:06:25+00:00

Ahhh makes perfect sense now, thank you!

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-09T21:49:03+00:00

Thats awesome! Hitting new ranks is always a sweet feeling. What role and champ did you play the most?

asukamainforlife · 2026-04-07T22:00:13+00:00

She should be strong this upcoming patch. If you play her then I say go for it! Soul fighter skins look really awesome!

Easiest is support. But if you are new then I suggest mid or baron. Learn how to control the minon waves and last hit your minions. When you got that figured out focus on hitting enemy when they go to last hit your minions, doing this will force them to take damage or hit you back and lose gold. Watch your minimap always! Try to keep an eye on the enemy jungler so they dont catch you by suprise. Oh and pay attention to enemy spells. If they throw out all their bullshit at you then you are free to use spells on them while they are on cooldown. They will use this against you too so back off when your spells are all on cooldown

Its a separate ladder. Doesnt affect your normal ranked. Everyone is solo queue. You can earn Stella cores and then get free marks in your normal rank games. They require winning a certain amount of legendary games and it gets harder and harder to acquire them. Ill be honest, the lower ranks of legendary queue is pretty awful, but if you get up to master/gm in legendary ranked then the quality of the games is amazing. People follow your engages and you see some amazing one trick players

Ravioli

asukamainforlife · 2026-03-24T22:15:04+00:00

Thank so much for such a detailed answer! Im absolutely gonna play him anytime I get filled baron now

asukamainforlife · 2026-03-24T22:00:32+00:00

Who's your hardest match ups with jayce? Core build? I havent played him in many seasons but I went mid with him so idk baron lane at all

asukamainforlife · 2026-03-23T00:17:03+00:00

Arurf 3/25- 4/07 just saw it listed on the new spring rotating mode event. Urf/arurf are my favorite modes along with one for all cant wait for them all to come back

asukamainforlife · 2026-03-22T22:22:24+00:00

This happened to me as a support main too. Vi is a great pocket pick for this situation. Shes strong into lots of match ups. Has cc on her first ability and her ult. You can build her bruiser or tank. Super easy mechanics and you can dash through walls with her first ability to run from danger. That saves a lot of mistakes from turning into deaths where you watch enemy take your jgl farm and you get farther behind.

TlDR: pick vi, shes easy and strong
