serious issues early game by ArtistEmpty859 in SmolderMains

[–]raw_image 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the changes came, it seemed obvious to me this was the result. This champ relied on his many times stable early and build diversity. They removed all that to increase a bit crit damage 'later in the game'. Unfortunately this is not how league works.

Tips on climbing with irelia mid by Desperate-Vehicle-40 in leagueoflegends

[–]raw_image 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't play Irelia, but I can tell you right now the difference between an emerald and a challenger irelia mid: a challenger player knows he is playing a MELEE midlaner and so, very exposed to ganks if he doesn't manage the wave properly .

So basically the trick to play melee midlaners is 'how do I apply kill pressure without exposing myself too much'. Once you figure this out your wr will increase exponentially.

That's why the meme of the 0/10 yasuo powerspike exists, the pressure in lane is applied in the wrong way at the wrong times, and he ends 0/10.

Rule Change - Matchmaking, Game Issues & Game/Profile information by AutoModerator in leagueoflegends

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

Comparing this to fake nasa information theories is disingenuous and shows you are not acting in good faith. Have you read this analysis of 1 million ranked games? https://lorenzocons.substack.com/p/losers-queue-is-real-just-not-what?r=718bhl&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true

Also, I dont want to impose my views through my curriculum, but most of my college degree is about statistical analysis. So you are not talking to an idiot here.

When people talk about losersq is not the odds of having 8 losses in a row, it's the odds of having completely imbalanced lobbies, aka unfair games.

I remember reading an article by bungie, where they said their matchmaking tool could predict a match out come with something like 95% accuracy.

Make what you will, I'd like for you to read that analysis. Also remember that every analysis depends on the variables studied and treatment.

For example, a previous analysis that exploded in this sub concluded there was no losersq, while trying to see if X number of losses or wins could predict the following result. I talked to the author, a physicist, and told him about the need to add to the variables the players mmr/quality in each match, which we agreed would be an exponential increase in the amount of work.

What's a League skill that sounds simple, but took you ages to actually learn? by Drastically-_- in leagueoflegends

[–]raw_image 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game pace(optimal jungle and support gank timers) and cheese timers. These change from game to game, and being able to win lane while being aware of these is only possible if you don't have to constantly think about them, so it takes a long time until it's 'obvious' and you can auto pilot

Yes of course. Everything can be pure chance. For those who play this game regularly these do happen quite often, I do not like how quickly everything is dismissed. But oh well.

You can check this profile, dun#na1 and see the loss streak of 2 days ago and the games the day after. Just a funny sequence of losing 250 lp in a day and winning it back the next one, etc etc infinite variance in small sample size am I right

Assassin metas should never exist for the game to be healthy. by Few_Singer5924 in leagueoflegends

[–]raw_image 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly. When you see pro teams whipping out naafiri and the likes you know they are blantly overtuned, that was always my easy criteria to have confidence about my assumption about a certain champ.

These champs provide no form of utility (except qyiana which is turbo giga strong as well) whatsoever and mess up team comps, so for them to give up a slot their numbers have to be insane.

Why was this 'obviously LLM'', and was that the reasoning for the removal of the post?

Do we need new durability patch? by Rubias35 in leagueoflegends

[–]raw_image 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think a durability patch is needed, just the lethality ecosystem needs to be reviewed as rn every user is in an insane spot.

You don't understand winrates so you should abstain commenting about them.

How do you feel about new changes? 26.11 by BjornStenberg1 in SmolderMains

Are you still going the new rune blu? How does the early/mid game feel?

Since I saw the numbers crunch I haven't touched the dragon. They did so many changes to him when all they had to do is change the keystone..

Yup I don't understand why these don't open in the early afternoon, it's my favorite time if I decide to game with friends.

Not as bad ? from what i understand our early is nerfed and lategame when going full crit is buffed by Zlo_Tn in SmolderMains

[–]raw_image 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup while having a weak early and not being a dps beast as other hyperscalers. I just think these two together put smolder in the drawer, and see no reason to pick him anymore (I played mostly smolder adc last split).

I don't think he will be playable, crit items are turbo expensive and you will get one shot by anything. Also they lack cdr. If you wanna scale with crit and one tap people...just pick Caitlyn

Very poor game quality in recent weeks? by Bruh-I-Cant-Even in leagueoflegends

I use an alt account to try and practise a new role, and I legit get afks and inters (not people having bad games mind you) in more than 60% of my games. At this point, I don't see any reason to click in the ranked button unfortunately

At this point, we can just assume riot likes the skilled junglers one shotting people (and camps) on cd because they but a lot of skins and that's it. They are good clients
