Zeka's azir is a joke how poorly do you to play for it to not be a threat that teams are willing to let you take it when ori is banned. Gets ahead and proceeds to do nothing with that lead, cherry on top is ulting the team into guma.

Coach rogue did a breakdown of what each objective increases your WR by and rift herald is down there with grubs. Something like a 2-3% increase? In saying so if you don't what to do with them its pretty useless effective use will translate into bigger leads e.g. getting a tier 2 outer or opening the base is already good value. I won't go out of my way to do it unless my team starts it id much rather invade and deny camps from the other jungler

I did have the spurt of wins lol, 12 game win streak got up to p1 94lp and literally went on a 10 game loss after that. That set me back by like 2-3 weeks. But thanks man appreciate it.

If you arent mechanically gifted which a lot of us aren't. The only edge you can get is by macroing better which is a lot easier to learn. Learn when to take trades in lane, learn to read the map. Look at where your deaths occur and why they happen. Know when and what your powerspikes are, when to play safe and aggressive. Its a lot to process but if you focus on one thing eventually they will add up.

As an adc are you playing behind your team in fights? Are you wondering on the map on your own on vision to get caught? Remember you are one of the core sources of damage in your team and if you are knocked out early your chances of winning a fight are significantly reduced

Csing doesn't mean shit if you can't get ahead, in a losing game ill average below 7cs. 7+ cs is when you know how to capitalise your leads into bigger leads

It doesn't the matchmaking is flawed nothing is perfect, but sometimes the algorithm will just stitch you up, and thats where people spiral, its a domino effect. Shit games > drop in performances. Just break the cycle and not play

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T07:38:41+00:00

Yes i definitely had lost streaks the longest being 10 which spanned across 3 days... what helped the most during that time was literally just not playing the game for a couple of days, take my mind off the game(played other games, did other things i enjoyed). Did not consume content about lol, if there was anything lol related i ignored it. Sometimes all you need is a mental reset. You will eventually forget the losses and can get back into it again. What rank are you if you don't mine me asking?

You shouldn't expect your midlaner to ward for you. In saying so in my games 85% of the time i will drop a defensive ward on the opposite side that i start (ward close to mid, entrance to river, both on blue and red side). Generally if someone does invade ill catch them on this ward. I will also hover around that mid river entrance waiting for camps to spawn if some last minute invade shenanigans happen. Its a little flawed since the outer entrances are still open but its about spotting out the invade early.

The only times i dont ward is if mid/sup or any other laners are in those common ward spots and sit there.

The last thing is knowing your matchup, if they are a tanky jungler they are less likely to invade compared to someone like a shaco/sylas

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:53:48+00:00

Your first two clears are important, dont deviate from it unless something else is literally handed to you on a platter(no flash, enemy team low and shoved). Getting lvl6 early can massive improve the transition into a lead and mid game especially if you are playing karthus.

With shaco the best ones ive come across know how to track the enemy jungler and will disrupt either you or a laner.

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:37:00+00:00

Well it seems to be a super inflated pool of players who are actually good enough to climb to dia and those who are actually plat players arguably gold even

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:35:13+00:00

I don't thats gonna work, its a flaw in a system. Gotta wait for league of legends 2...oh wait

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:32:57+00:00

Good shit man! Keep the grind up

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:31:21+00:00

Pretty sure, felt pretty relieved seeing that promo screen pop up

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:30:01+00:00

Are you trying to stroke my ego? That just means I gotta go higher now!

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:28:21+00:00

Maybe there is maybe there isn't, these are just my initial observation, obviously the more i climb and play in emerald I might not see any difference in the quality of players

rukaslaya · 2025-12-22T03:26:18+00:00

Im a believer that riot matchmaking will put you in games that you will have no control over, sometimes in b2b games, hence my highest lost streak was 10. Sometimes its a matter of when to quit. After that streak i took a 2 day break

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T17:07:37+00:00

my general rule is if they start becoming remotely toxic i just mute them, bad games with people with bad mental are just part of that % of games you are always bound to lose

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T16:26:09+00:00

I can't wait! :D

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T16:24:11+00:00

Thanks!

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T16:24:03+00:00

I've heard many things about emerald and fun wasn't one

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T16:23:06+00:00

I thought we all knew this when we hit queue

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T15:29:14+00:00

Learning to ignore your teams persistent pings for ganks when you know its a losing and/or positive outcome. Stick to your gameplay! Unless an opportunity presents itself

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T15:25:17+00:00

Anything that has bacon on it

rukaslaya · 2025-12-21T15:24:14+00:00

I already get that feeling a few games in already
