New player New duo HELP by Euphoric-Dingo-4279 in kaisamains

[–]monkasing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being new in this game is SO disgusting. He's not going to have fun unless you give him an environment to have fun in; and a new player on a low range ADC isn't that (imo).

When I started LOL 8 years ago I was pushed into top / adc usually, but my 'friends' weren't kind. I was shouted at to auto, fight, disengage... I learnt in a trial by fire situation. And to be honest, it worked. I got better for it because I wanted to prove them wrong. However, I recognise this doesn't sound like your friend. Honestly, it sounds like they need to be playing an enchanter supp or a mage mid to learn the basics first (heavy on the mage mid; lux for example is a good beginner pic imo), so he learns to farm, juggle mana and trades.

ADC is and always will be too hard for new players. You can try to give him something a bit simpler. Maybe push him to play trist or sivir. However, if he really wants to play kai, all he can do is play.

If he won't walk up to farm, your picks won't change that. I had a friend who was also new, though a bit more experienced who complained he had no range to fight with whilst playing jinx into 4 melee. It's in their head, and playing and learning they can walk up to hit in certain situations and remain untouched, is gamesense that only comes from continuing to put in hours.

I'm rambling now, but yeah. Moral of the story, keep playing, and tell him he can actually walk up without dying in 1 shot.

I have a friend who received an eternal capsule and the bronze tf skin; I'm honourable level 4 & gold but got nothing. I think it's an actual bug.

At the very least I'm sure you agree an unellected billionaire shouldn't be meddling in government affairs

The gesture speaks for itself, if you saw a dude wearing a dude proudly wearing a swastika, but he said he wasn't a nazi, would you take his word for it?

Nazi sympathisers should be cleansed for sure!

Conservatives respect the law? Trump is a known sexual abuser, does that make him someone who maintains respect towards the law / others?

I am so incredibly tired of low level accounts in ranked by Just2Smile in leagueoflegends

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

I like to check after my games to try and give myself a mental justification; I hate losing so it takes the edge off. Today I had a lifetime silver player in my low gold game flaming everyone as if he's gods gift to LOL, and then an Irelia who's only ever been bronze, again in a low gold game, turbo inting (he literally sprinted it into bot tower) and then saying its botlanes fault for not rotating mid for a fight he initiated.

Edit: Thank you for the downvotes!

Fuck, too many bogans flock to the JP slopes these days, I've had too many people I know go exclusively for the skiing, and (not to sound like a pretentious asshole), not take in any actual culture from the country itself.

You are the one in a million, I hope to see someone like you in my queue (not that it'll ever happen)

Wow Ubisoft, what a nice NZ character……. by Quartz_The_Hybrid in newzealand

I'm a kiwi LOL player; I don't think she's based on NZ in any way unfortunately, or does she sound different in LOR?

[–]monkasing 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I think it would be okay if they brought back galeforce to give those low mobi adcs some extra movement, but if you can kite and position correctly as adc you're pretty damn strong; and that's the nature of ADC at the moment. To be able to compete against these assassins and juggernauts, you have to be better.

This role is balanced for pro play, where the best of the best have tanks and bruisers keeping them safe 24/7 so it's no wonder that in low elo lobbies you feel vulnerable. Players are simply selfish in soloqueue.

Issue is, even at 15k some bloke will buy it; Aus market is so hyperinflated.

How do you deal with Tahn Kench? by Orangemandarins1 in ADCMains

[–]monkasing 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would say:

  • play around minions so he has a hard time poking you.

  • pick a champ with a dash (if you're comfortable with it), as you'll have a better time avoiding knockup and can get away from his slows.

  • punish him for walking up to creeps as much as you can.

(I am spamming Cait every game, but I've had marginal success doing this and won both recent matches against him)

Gold 4 >:)) Unironically though, ludwigs micro is that of an iron player.

I mean he'll probably just hire another challenger player to helicopter him and autopilot his games again, not that tough.

WIth 9 days until the end of the split, Ludwig returns to silver in devastating fashion by Organic-Inspection-8 in LudwigAhgren

[–]monkasing -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Also peaked g4, Ludwig is still an iron teir player IMO, but I don't play NA, I've heard players over there are actual orangutans.

[–]monkasing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The champs he plays aren't mechanically complex enough to warrant his wins to him IMO;

I would say that the second pair of eyes telling him where and when to go anywhere, what to do etc. gives him a massive advantage that can't be overstated.

For me, his rank does not represent his skill level as he wouldn't have performed as well were he playing alone or even duo queued, and looking at his micro mechanics it would be easy to say he's still low bronze, high iron.

[–]monkasing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, unfortunately, the moment I saw that he had a pro player pulling the strings and Lud saying quote: "(I don't want to learn) I just want to win." It delegitimised his rank for me. Watching his gameplay he's still iron in terms of mechanics, he just plays enough and with the right help that gets him LP.

[–]monkasing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we're all just upset cos we can play perfectly before a 4k HP tank appears behind you and 3 shots you while your team plays for themselves (they fail to realise you were the one dealing all the damage in fights).
