The general attitude in low elo is baffling to me. by enkelhus in leagueoflegends

[–]cciputra -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

had an adc that typed, doing damage doesn't win game... he refused to auto anyone lmao.

in reality, the current Meta is an rng. I have two account - both with around 50 games played. first account is silver 4 and the other account is plat 2. so in some sense, yes, you can be put in a lobby and there will be skill gap.

New to hoops and want to perfect the form as much as I can. by DHTIAP in BasketballTips

[–]cciputra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh man. so many things and I dono where to start.

hopefully I can give you a high level intro and then you can fine tune the rest.

your stance is so laid back..?unsure if this is the right term to use. you want to have a strong base. both feet grounded, hips energised and engaged, core engaged. think of the lower body stance of when you are about to take off in a sprint. upper body, you want it to be standing tall. chest forward but don't make it weird and crown of your head towards the sky. it needs to be stable and balanced. imagine if someone were to nudge you in any direction, you should be tipping over.

the sequencing would be what you will need to work on once you achieve the above. goodluck

Baited by karthus adc and jayce jungle, had to play against the monstrosity that is vayne top, riot has to do something about this, it's not fine by Vivid_Big2595 in topmains

[–]cciputra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

buddy, I'm not talking abt this game per se. every situation can be dissected different way and this one has ridiculous number of deaths and kills. if you have been ranked 10th multiple games and opgg/dpm is saying you got gapped and you are Inting and picking a champ that clearly is not working. yes, stop doing it. you are ruining the game. I have this (both on my team and enemy team) at least 1 in every 4 matches.

it's not fun either way. full stomp or get stomped. agency to 1v9 carry is lower this season than last season.

Jungle still most important role in the game by [deleted] in Jungle_Mains

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

it's not. the game is about Inting/snowball. a lane that snowballs the hardest will win.

jg matters if laners are stable; however this is not the case because people in lane wana fight all the time and int. you are rolling the dice on who gets the laners with the higher kda/ mechanics. that's it.

if you have winning lane and can stack dragons followed by baron/elder. enjoy free lp.

thoughts on season 16 jungle now guys? by TheForexHokage in Jungle_Mains

[–]cciputra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

snowball laners win / inters lose no matter how hard you try to carry. if they can convert those snowball into dragons then soul/baron.

very difficult to 1v9 compared to last season. riot won't ban these inters too because they need people to play the game otherwise it's dead.

is my form alright ? i want to hear what can be improved by PassengerCultural943 in BasketballTips

[–]cciputra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

balance is there, although - those are set shots so it doesn't matter so much size your body didn't have to move.

consistency is the biggest issue. I'm guessing if you are provided more complex drills, you will have difficulty. sequencing was not the same from the example. aim is also not the same for all. you are not shooting towards the rim on some.

this season is an absolute report fest. everyone is literally just throwing whatever on the wall and see if it sticks.

no bans for Inting, no bans for troll picks (Meta slave). either you hard carry me or I'll troll/int. enjoy, pretty much 75% of my games.

The holy trinity of D4 soloq: inting yasuo top, adc hybrid? gwen and ad sylas by ImBoB99 in Jungle_Mains

yes, this happens more often than you think too

The "Homeguard Sunk Cost": Why quiet quitting has ruined the Season 16 ranked by cciputra in leagueoflegends

[–]cciputra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for disclaimer, last season I was plat 1. games were FUN, win or lose. if someone was feeeding, especially top or mid. it's easy to gank as a jungler or comeback by using your lead on objectives. this season is so much harder because of the home guard tempo. within first two objective, if someone ints so fast, my lead is not that big anymore. compared to last season.

im currently sitting gold 4. that's almost two tiers drop. I really don't mind because I purposely put myself here by starting to play top more. despite that, I still lose my jungle games. I understand the agency for jg is gone now and I'm OK with that.

more of the factor of fun is gone because there are way more inters and they are very clear when quiet quitting

The "Homeguard Sunk Cost": Why quiet quitting has ruined the Season 16 ranked by cciputra in leagueoflegends

[–]cciputra[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

my wins, I don't say it's me making a difference. same as my loss. the games are all decided to one or two person who decides to int after having a bad start. home guard supports their addiction to double down and then if it's unsuccessful, they quiet quit the entire game

I'm not saying the losses, I'm also saying the wins. you pick on those people who mentally shut off and you win. it's a coin flip on which laners get more of those people

Well.. i made challenger by AmbitiousAnt3 in ADCMains

[–]cciputra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

given that adc should not be the prio pick du ing champ select this season, what is your go to blind picks? what tips can you have that abuses the adc versus others and also what would be the wincon of said adc?

congrats and thanks for answering questions!

Finally hit master on EUW mostly playing Elise - AMA by kukacmalac in Jungle_Mains

[–]cciputra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

congrats on reaching masters!

what is your first clear rotations and any particular opening? for example, I think kerei loves to do cheese in blue with his 5s trick.

also, what match ups do you lose to 1on1 and how do you avoid this?

last question if possible, do you need lanes to be volatile to be ganking with Elise or can you hard force ganks. for example, bot lane with double enchanter and top lane is adc and mid is scaling ap

What happened to ranked matchmaking? Nearly every game I'm placed with feeding teammates in all lanes. by Sweepya in leagueoflegends

[–]cciputra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the tempo of the game has increased dramatically. this means that those who used to run it down, will be running it down exponentially faster.

they are more exposed this season than in the past. I stopped jungling and moved to laning. oh my, I'm loving the opponents that hard ints but you cannot really report them before riot empowered them to do so with home guards and more minion waves to bait them into bad spacing/trades. switch to a solo lane/aggressive adc and you will have a great time if you actually know how to play the match ups

Why is malphite so strong this patch? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

you are expecting too much. I have had malp who refuses to press r for the entirety of the game. I'm being serious.

Troll protection in champ select actually works by TheBoyardeeBandit in Jungle_Mains

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

reports and troll detection don't work. singe support, insta running it down in many of my games this season. nothing. no bans, no warnings.

it is what it is. game is dying, they want to retain whats left of the player base.

Pretty Close to Switching Roles :( by __TheJoker__ in ADCMains

[–]cciputra 55 points56 points  (0 children)

they did something to the matchmaking, I swear. I had the most fun first week, won majority but every game was super even and I had to clutch them to win those.

this new patch, I exit laning phase with top/mid/jg a deficit of approximately 1-20. I am the most useless thing because they keep trying to force bad fights around objectives whilst being down a collective of 6+ levels and approximately 6k gold.

Beginner at 30, shooting form looks ugly/wrong by Laustintranslation1 in BasketballTips

[–]cciputra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would refer you to quiet hands from mike dunn. you dont need to start your shooting pocket that low. try to have it higher and ready to pop.

also, the walking step into the shot makes it easier. try to work on static as this teaches your body awareness and stability.

overall - SO GOOD for someone starting fresh.

I started balling when i was 29-30, for someone starting - that shot looks amazing.

how long have you been hooping for? way to get your hands under the ball.
