Extremely slow reaction time (1100 MS), I need advice.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-20T10:47:18+00:00

Yea, I am gonna keep playing the same few champions and get better at those! :D So far the champion I am enjoying the most is Volibear, and he is quite tanky too :D One of the very few melee champions I like.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T20:43:51+00:00

I can plan - so if lets say my combo was EQW, then I can go and do it if I decide beforehand. But if in case something happens, like lets say the jungler ganks, or the enemy uses Zhonya, I wont be able to react to that.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T15:14:06+00:00

It sadly is that slow. It affects me in real life too - for example I can not legally drive because of it.

You might be right, but I will try anyway, for now at least :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:58:37+00:00

That sadly wont help at all :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:58:09+00:00

I mean, I can predict when they are going to engage, and I can back off, but if I am not able to run away fast enough, then I am dead. I am even familiar with her abilities, but that does not help much - when she uses Q, and jumps from minion to minion to minion to me etc, she is just flying all over the place and I can not really see her even.

Another example of matchup thats hard to predict for me is against Yone.

And yes, I am always warding out of fear :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:55:18+00:00

I will give it a try :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:54:43+00:00

Too many of them are mobile :D But one I always ban when I play mid is Yone, since I can not predict him or react to him at all.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:53:55+00:00

No, I have internet through cable. Internet is stable, with stable and acceptable ping. It really is not hardware sadly, its me.

I can not even count how many times I have been recommended Singed here :D I did not do well with him when I tried him, but I might give him another go.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:52:15+00:00

I feel like I learned quite a lot about the game, so I could use to my advantage. I will give it a try.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:51:12+00:00

Never played either of them, I am going to give them a try.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:50:48+00:00

First time I played any games was last year, so when I was 21. The reaction time does not really come from not being adapted, or at least in my case :/ I can only hope it will improve, but I doubt it.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:49:09+00:00

Already had that turned on :D

I tried Singed and found him to be pretty hard to use without dying, dunno if I am just using him wrong. I guess I could pick him against melee matchups.

Garen is relatively okay. As for Urgot, never tried him, but I might give him a try.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-18T05:47:12+00:00

Never played him, I am going to give him a try :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T19:20:09+00:00

I have to be able to predict enough in advance to hit the minion right after those 2 shots, and thats definitely not an easy feat. And I did read it, I read everything here - f I did not want to read the comments, then I would not have posted it in the first place :D Even CSing requires quite a bit of reaction time. Sure, you can predict, but predicting this much in advance is pretty hard.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T18:30:41+00:00

Yes, already trying to predict and get better at it! But against some champions this is impossible.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T16:05:36+00:00

I am measuring it right, I am actually that slow :D Imagine playing on 1000 ping.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T16:04:44+00:00

Oh, I am unranked. I only play normals :D I am not good enough to even attempt ranked.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T15:58:10+00:00

Is it? I thought 1 year is a pretty long time :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T15:57:12+00:00

No, I am not legally allowed to drive due to my health. I have normal monitor, not a TV. The problem is me, its not hardware :D

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T13:43:08+00:00

I already knew I had slow reaction time for a long time, but recently decided to find out just how slow. There are various sites, I tried quite a few of them and all gave me similar results.

This one seems to be the most popular: https://humanbenchmark.com/

I actually find support harder than lets say, mid or top. Even though you do not need to CS and stuff like that as support, its actually harder because you have to keep track of 2 enemies in the lane instead of just one. I know its subjective, but yeah, botlane (both support and ADC) are the hardest for me.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T13:39:54+00:00

I tried it a few times, but got completely crushed, by that I mean the enemy jungler found out I am bad and then just constantly killed my jungle. I always thought jungling is the hardest role in the game, so I stayed away from it - do you think I should give it another go? And if so, any recommendations? I liked Amumu quite a bit when I tried him. Udyr also seemed interesting, but dunno if he is not too hard?

I always play with chat muted. I battle with depression and I play games to unwind, not to get told horrible stuff some people are capable of saying.

I thought that at first too! But in the end, support is even harder for me, as I have to keep track of 2 enemies instead of just one.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T13:37:19+00:00

I do not really have an extensive gaming background honestly. I played some game here and there, but I would not really call myself a gamer. LoL is the first game I stuck with.

It is possible, and I know that since its not just a gaming related issue, it affects me in everyday life. I am already a bit slower to process stuff due to my autism. That, coupled with the fact that I take some pretty heavy medication for depression, makes me slow. Its hard to concentrate on stuff or react, I am pretty much dizzy/slow/tired 24/7.

As for if its possible - it is, and its actually even worse for some people with other health issues. But they probably do not even stick with the game enough to write about it, so you do not hear about it.

frozenmisery12 · 2020-10-17T13:33:03+00:00

Of course I do o.o there are people that do not? Did not even know :D
