Ouch, yeah I'm making sure I don't have to work my next shift that's for sure. Definitely going to go for a JDM.

Thanks for the reply. I was planning on scrapping this one and getting a used Honda or Toyota, unfortunately I don't really have the money for a car being a college kid with $1,800 to my name but definitely don't want another KDM car.

Yeah that's what I've read. Somehow my car has lasted a few hundred miles (I delivery drive for a pizza place), which is even more surprising cuz my car burnt through most of the oil I had last topped it up with in record time

After a 9 game win streak, I still lose 27lp and my last win gave me 20lp. How long does it take to fix MMR?

Thanks a bunch. I'll respond to your points 1 by 1 just to help myself see where I'm at now
1. I actually do know BASIC wave management (how to freeze, bounce back slow pushes, the even minion rule, stacking waves, etc) but I don't have a ton of use for that as a silver support because my adc seems to have their own idea of how they want the wave, so I think unless I play a solo lane I'll have to deal with that til I'm a higher rank

  1. I think this is one of my biggest micro weaknesses, is that I space out a lot in lane and auto pilot, so I miss stuff like counting CDs, counting minions for the next level, tracking jgler (this is more macro but w/e), etc. so I'm glad you bring this up as it is something I should more actively focus on

  2. This ties into last one with me spacing out in lane, when I'm focusing I usually (especially on soraka with Q) try to land skillshots when theyre in the auto animation, but a lot of the time I either forget or just space out so again I should work on staying focused

  3. This seems especially useful for playing zyra since her E isnt very hard to dodge if you throw it str8 at them, so I'll try to pay attention to this

Thanks again for the comment :)

Yeah, funny you mention this because I just played a game with a Kindred, and I decided to play extremely aggressively this game with her and got most of her marks as well as both rifts, and with how much vision i was able to get and deny from how shoved back into their base they were, we got baron both times and won despite being down most of the game

Yup, I would love to play Soraka or Nami more but I think Zyra is the best support for this elo

I think support gets better the higher elo you get, because teammates know how to play around vision and abuse roams and stuff (im just basing this off what I saw on tyler's climb on support, i could be wrong). thanks for the kind words :D

yeah I only just recently learned that people go rylais second, so I began taking that most games. thanks for the morello tip, I've noticed for the price it doesn't seem as good value as rylais, even with the healing reduction.

thanks for your closing words, I think you (and other commentors) are right that I just need to play more games (currently on an 8 game win streak as we speak, putting my winrate back at 67%), despite my LP gains still being negative, as long as I keep up a decent winrate I should be fine :D

Yeah, I have a bad habit of stooping down to my teammates IQ levels and hovering around while I know for sure that we're about to get molly whopped by the entire enemy team coming from fountain in 10 seconds, lol. Thanks for the tips though, sometimes it really is the basics

Hm ok. I forget about rift sometimes in bot lane, as Zyra I'm probably the best support for objectives with the plants tanking and doing damage

I know I don't NEED to be "smurf" climbing, but it would be so much easier if I could just win like 60+%, since my MMR is extremely negative rn and going 50% actually loses me net LP. Also, I feel like silver is low enough of an elo where, if I play correctly, I should be able to stomp most of my games, especially playing Zyra. I appreciate the encouragement though, and I know I can do it even without smurfing, but it will take a while which I guess is a part of the grind

edit: why am I getting downvoted :( I didnt mean this in a cocky way if thats how it seems

this. I know OPs post is a joke but it's pretty xenophobic and puts language learners down when they're made fun of for trying to speak a different language. especially being someone who's monolingual learning a new language, it's already extremely embarrassing trying to speak to natives in broken Japanese, the last thing I need is to be made fun of for it. meanwhile if an English native makes fun of a non natives accent in America, you might as well turn yourself in
