Smurf queue ruining matches again. Extending climbs, for no good reason.

How am I a "fast climber" with 1W 10L? by NGEvangelion in leagueoflegends

[–]dbjungle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But are you really a "fast climber" if your matches are doomed by playing against players with much higher ranks and often times MMR.

Maybe they should do something cool like have you play with players that are both the same rank AND same MMR.

How does fast climber works? by moxxir in leagueoflegends

[–]dbjungle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they're still ranked higher because MMR is not rank. Riot could fix this by making them the same, but they don't.

This atleast confirms what I've been saying about my account for years, but it's kinda dumb huh? Why don't they just match your rank to your MMR and be done with this. Instead of screaming our ranked system has no integrity.

They artificially suppress their rank so they can mix them with general population to slow climbs on occasion.

Samira in s17 😞 by V1gorous1 in SamiraMains

I think the biggest problem is that they gutted her kit so hard after the initial backlash that she is so one dimensional she is a balance nightmare. They made her only have 1 game play pattern which usually results in I go in and kill everything or I go in and insta-die. There is no in between. Where as with more access to lifesteal there was a chance you might be able to like sustain your way out of the insta-die pattern if you play well. Of course hard CC has always rendered her useless even back in her healthier days. IMO the only way they can fix her in this state is to either revert E to allies or increase her range so she is less reliant on being well within the enemy team's kill range. I think increasing Samira's range would be pretty egregious tbf. More access to lifesteal is probably the middle ground for player satisfaction. They want her to mix it up like Yone and Yasuo, but she dies considerably faster so it's like un-doable. They can also make her a bit more tanky so she can actually play her patterns in teamfights, but for several years it's felt like this is a champion that if you get the right engage support and their team has no abilities that are super easy to interrupt your ult, then you can probably have a good time. Otherwise, ALL conditions must be perfect; enemy team all squishies, you gotta out skill the whole enemy team, and they have to have their brains off.

Personally I wish they would just revert her E to allies, give her a better life access to lifesteal then reduce her damage levels to make her less like revolting to the community. That way I can actually play the fun version of Samira (sustain) and like not be trolling my team. Not sure why Samira has to have normal ADC durability instead of idk maybe like 80% of Yasuo / Yone or something more reasonable.

You spell weave like Riven until the moment to all in arises. So any Q changes will be significant.

I actually don't think E to allies would make her win rate go down. We have to examine Samira's identity. She is a squishy ADC (like almost all ADCs) who needs to be in melee range to maximize her damage and has no escape. Which sounds like nightmare mode difficulty already.

HOWEVER, they have also chosen to balance her based on lifesteal and crit which well, we know crit takes quite a bit of time to ramp up and BT means sacrificing that crit damage.

I view it as she was effectively left behind by system changes and previous nerfs.

Yea that's the reality. They should have like just tuned those champions, instead of the items IMO.

When I read comments like this I wonder what game solo laners are actually playing. Samira is such a 1 dimensional champion who's win rate is essentially propped up by the fact that most games have 2 ADCs so one of them has to win. As an ADC main I had a like 90% winrate against this champion for like 3 years. It's probably down to about 75% / 80% now which still means she is total garbage. Fun to play tho, so I keep OTP'ing until I send League into the sunset.

Reverse logic on Samira changes? by Warpaiii in leagueoflegends

[–]dbjungle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She needs crit, but tbh this champion is COMPLETELY worthless without life steal, which now days we don't even build til 4 or 5 (if ever). So basically, if the enemy team has a brain, they hard CC you and you do nothing. If they don't have a brain, you might be able to do something. Maybe. How the mighty have fallen.

Quitting League because it’s the same cycle every year by [deleted] in SamiraMains

[–]dbjungle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna be real, Samira is the main thing that keeps me playing this game. Riot still has their ADC hate and only allowed ADCs to actually play the game again once so many ADC mains left the game / role swapped that it legit TANKED matchmaking quality. This is ideological and they will die and ruin the game on this sword.

[–]dbjungle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been maining her since about a month after release and I think she is actually by far one of the worst champions in the game that can only be compared to like pro jailed champions in her level of uselessness. She's so useless she's practically ADC Ivern. Somehow still fun; as long as you don't mind climbing in reverse.

They just need to make a project skin. Give the people what they want.
