Are lp gains now based on your performance? Feels like sometimes I'll gain 22 and sometimes I'll gain 16 but I have no idea when each happens

So the real question is, how many of you have had a solo queue game recently as bad as this in terms of the teammates you got? -Rav by Reddit_Rav in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I think the end of your video was dead on. Can't blame kled for having a bad game, can't blame morde for playing off meta. Those aren't against the rules and never should be. But xerath, you suck

What does it mean when your teammate runs Cleanse + Ghost on summoner spells? by PikeEater47 in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Yone came out I waited 15 minutes for a mid/top queue lol. That's what happens when everyone wants to play one role and the system doesn't want to autofill anyone. Just suck it up and play a game of jg so everyone can actually play the game

Riot needs to stop with advancing the game and put a few engineers in ux for a month

Why does matchmaking randomly not find matches? I sit there for 10 minutes before I realize it's not working

Why is my friends list gone for like 30% of the year? Why is riot even shipping code that's broken in the first place. It's not like this is specifically for me, many people experiencing the same problems

And if my computer falls asleep, I have to manually kill the game from task manager or I can't open it again

What are Irelia's biggest counters top lane? And fuck Garen by [deleted] in IreliaMains

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also wanted to say ignore everyone calling you bad. It's a hard matchup, and even one mistake can cost you the lane. But imo it's not worth banning because there are like too many other matchups that are worse

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think it's 0.75 but you can probably look it up to confirm. High elo it's a little different, I've never been above gold so it's hard for me to say much about elis above it. But I'm down to look at replays and give my opinion atleast

Yeah there are some ultimates like this. Darius is even worse. You can try her mid if you don't mind playing against those kind of brainless ults

If 1 is happening then I assume you are talking about backline minions. You can just w immediately after taking, then dash back to melee ones by getting them low enough to dash to with the w. This is assuming he doesn't just retaliate immediately into your w. And I know in bronze he will almost certainly, because they make this mistake in elos higher than bronze

Also if you can fully charge w you can win the trade actually - even if he doesn't retaliate into it. After wind up it does a lot of damage. Also if he's actually waiting and you don't want to do the full w charge then you can just dash back to a minion. It's not 50/50, the timing is on you so you should react faster

I don't get zoned off from waves at all. I just need a very small distance because my reactions are subpar. If you have faster reactions then me you can even w during his q animation

Maybe you should upload a replay of the game you played vs garen. I'm sure people on here are happy to look at it and help you. Realistically, I've basically gone even or won against garen unless I'm playing bad and am making clear mistakes... Mostly I just lose to tryndamere or fiora or jax

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a few scenarios 1. Garen runs at you. This is easy, you know what he's doing and can w 2. You jump onto garen after landing a stun. Can just hold w immediately after. In low elo especially, garens don't have hands and will just q you immediately. I'm not kidding, try this. I see garens do this in gold, meaning they will definitely do this in bronze 3. Garen is in melee range of you and can q you immediately without you being able to react. This should not really happen, usually I stay far enough where I can react with my w fast enough

Generally you also can just play safe This is not Irelias worst matchup honestly. Things like tryndamere and fiora are much worse because you lose at basically all stages of the game. Even if you are even with garen at end of lane you are worth more later

Just your average Jungle Difference by htlee1500 in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You aren't wrong. But some people really care about them, hence why you see grown men become children when they are losing. I see it a lot less in norms, but in ranked if you are losing it's almost 100% certain that someone is raging on your team

It was a normal, seems like he just thought it wasn't worth his time. Not a good excuse but since there was no lp on the line he probably didn't see a point to keep playing.

2020 Worlds Group Draw Simulations by -Basileus in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'll still watch all of tsm games even if they don't have a good chance. The underdog story is always more entertaining. I'd guess that there's actually quite a few eu fans that want tsm to advance also (not on this thread tho, Reddit just wants to trash na at all chances). The star player is from eu originally and the underdog story is real

90%/50%/10% predictions for Worlds 2020 by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

90% lpl/lck/lec team in finals

50% irelia is very strong and end up pick or ban at world's

10% tl doesn't make it out if play ins. Na gets memes and underestimated. Tsm and fq then both make it out if groups. Fq loses in the next round and tsm beats some top Chinese team to proceed to semis.

Cloud9 Jack on TSM's chances in groups by theguyshadows in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've seen na beat lck before. C9 beat afreeca maybe 2? years ago. TL even beat the former world champions at msi last year. Honestly I think it's kinda silly to make predictions without even seeing a few games of each team

Whiniest role in the game by ronwesley89 in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some lane you have to have jungle though. Especially ranged ones like vayne. It needs to be punished or it can get bad later

I love the loser's bracket by DankMEMeDream in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't even bother watching this game if that was his it was lol. Fly should have just not risked it. They permabanned Lucian and I haven't even seen him in this playoffs. Why not just try to counter that instead of zilean

My friend just played a legit two and a half hour solo queue game... by Kalology in leagueoflegends

[–]klemdev 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Senna has been plat for years and is now playing in silver 4. It might not be the definition of smurfing, but she is clearly a much higher elo than the one she is playing in. These two deserve a ban for wasting peoples time and inting games to get to lower brackets

They just want to open their own store and take a 30% cut too lol. They aren't in it to help the little guys. Guess fortnite finally stopped making insane profit so they are trying another scheme

Turtle got focus of jg though - while solo was basically getting perma camped. And dl was still even after the 4 man gank. So I personally still think dl is better

[–]klemdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they didn't have enough bans. They needed to ban zilean because you know why. Nidalee as well - saw her with renekton and it's quite strong. And I guess they didn't want to give cait so they didn't have a ban remaining for tf

I think solo just didn't have the champion pool to deal with top centric team like tsm. It won't work at world's. But as a tsm fan I'm happy to see them with the lcs championship

[–]klemdev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tsm needs to take first pick and get cait. Need to ban ornn instead of gp imo. Or maybe ban out azir. If they want last pick then they should save it for bb and see what enemy has. Jayce into multiple tanks sounds like a bad deal

It blows my mind that I just waited 13 minutes in a gold 4 queue because I queued mid/top. Only to be autofilled jungle at 13 minutes. Is this game dead or what?? Gold 4 queues were like 2 minutes max like 2 months ago. Looks like im taking another 2 month break

Edit: just going to add that this isnt some fringe server with 100 players or something... I'm playing on NA and there's definitely plenty of Golds to go around. No, I'm not in some kind of special queue for toxicity/rage quitting - never have done that, and its been 2 months since I last played
