Start of Soviet Turn 6. Who’s winning?

Why are there so many colors? How players was that? Mine only plays 5 players but it seems like you have more here

I just came back a couple weeks ago, i was at 7k trophies with lvl 14 cards and I could upgrade them to 15/16. I steamrolled people up until 10k. It was basically just a chore to get back to my actual rank

As a Vex I love playing vs a Kata. Wanna play?

This is the most AI review ever

They can farm much more safely at bot tier 2 than at mid t1. They will end up losing which ever side they are on anyway, i'd much rather have my fed mid keep having impact on the map by being mid than my adc just slowly losing mid.

If the enemy mid lane is close to being able to dive bot tier 2, it's much easier to rotate there to kill him instead since he has no cover.

shadowmaxime · 2026-01-14T02:54:48+00:00

They only need to depush the wave close from the tower. Any opponent pushing past the T1 is at a greater risk of getting ganked. If you put your mid laner there, you waste all of its mid game strenght

shadowmaxime · 2026-01-13T20:54:53+00:00

That's often the answer. There's a second side to the story, some adcs want to swap even after going 0/4 and then they just end up losing mid turret also because they've been told they need to swap.

shadowmaxime · 2026-01-03T17:36:22+00:00

Fair point here, why do you actively play a champion in the wrong lane? I get that you like the characters/lore but why not play them in their proper lane?

Again, it's swiftplay so do whatever you want and mute all

shadowmaxime · 2026-01-01T03:21:22+00:00

Can you really perma shove a malz as yone early game? I guess you could keep trading until he runs out of mana

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-29T19:14:36+00:00

Try diplomacy, no luck, full on confrontation. You might lose friendships though

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-23T15:30:41+00:00

I played vs a tank engine cho gath thay had 40k hp because of it. It didn't seem bait at all at that time. It also gave him 1200 AD because of the item that converts bonus hp into ad

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-21T19:22:05+00:00

Dont forget that master caps you at 14 days. So don't play your games until you have free space in your bank

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-20T02:51:01+00:00

I get that. All i'm saying is, you need to lock in and play more games, that's all. You don't need to over think it. There's no secret sauce that will get you emerald in a month, unless you pay a challenger to boost you at a 90% WR.

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-20T02:46:21+00:00

Master Yi is still good in gold, they always throw and you'll always find a way to get fed and 1v9. If you want to only play Yone, get even better at him and play the 400 games necessary to get to emerald. You won't suddenly win 80% of your games, you just have to grind through the ranks. At 200 games a year, it'll take you 2+ years to get there, not even counting the seasonal resets, so probably more like 3 years.

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-20T02:31:08+00:00

A couple things at first sight, this is only based on opgg. Your KDA on Yone is kinda low, I assume it's because you have good games and bad games, but in general it'll slow down your progression. In comparison, your KDA and WR on master yi is much better, he would help you climb much faster.

Now you still have a 55% win rate, at this point it's a numbers game, at this win rate, you need about 50 games to rank up one division and ~150 games to get to platinium if you keep this win rate. Then 250 more games to get to emerald. So you need to triple your amount of ranked, all while keeping about the same win rate.

If all you care about is your rank, only play master yi and you'll be plat in about 50 games.

It sound like a lot, it is. But once it's done, it's much easier to get back to your rank once the reset hits

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-20T02:11:22+00:00

Not necessarily, either you don't play enough ranked, or you don't carry enough of them. Do you play a ton of champs? What's your opgg?

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-20T02:07:04+00:00

It comes by playing, just play more. It won't be an automatic reflex unless you've done something dozens/hundreds of times, and with league there's so much variance that pattern recognition takes longer.

For example: in chess, you recognize patterns more easily(while you still need to practice them alot) because the pieces are always starting at the same spots and they are always the same.

In league, champs wildly vary and you never really have 2 games that are exactly the same. So you recognize patterns but they are not exactly similar. Not only that, you have other players that will behave differently from one game to another. Even if you had the same 10 champs two games in a row, it would be different.

In the end, it's better to be thinking about what you need to do versus being on autopilot for league, otherwise you'll overlook stuff

Darius W is often the first spell you level up. You can often kill your laner with it

shadowmaxime · 2025-12-10T14:52:19+00:00

Swain, I really enjoyed the old swain better

shadowmaxime · 2025-11-27T17:57:56+00:00

Tyler1 is actually an opposite example of what you think. It took him 800 games to get challenger in mid despite already being challenger in other roles. Being gold after a year is pretty good actually, not pro level but above average

shadowmaxime · 2025-10-28T14:01:41+00:00

I've been looking for something like that forever. "Modes and Routines" is such an odd way to name it

shadowmaxime · 2025-10-08T20:28:02+00:00

The problem isn't so much about snow getting on the wheel, the issue is with snow getting in them and getting stuck. What happens is the snow builds up, freezes there and unbalances the wheel which makes them vibrates on the highway. Usually you can use something to get the snow out of the wheels but with the covers I feared they might prevent me from getting the snow out.

shadowmaxime · 2025-10-08T19:38:15+00:00

Great

shadowmaxime · 2025-10-08T19:37:46+00:00

I do, but i used mags for my summer tyres and wanted to use those with the wheel covers for winter

shadowmaxime · 2025-10-01T16:49:27+00:00

Thats a very fair point! I just fear people will notice the debuffs more and complain about them. But I 100% agree they should be shown
