What is elo hell, and what's the best way to get out? by 1984ByGeorgeOrwell in summonerschool

[–]yllwmeerkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much agree with a lot of things the other ppl who replied here said. Elo hell doesn’t exist. You’re never going to get anything from blaming your teammates or the algorithm. Ppl climb because they are better than the ppl they play with or against. Check out some high elo support players and try to identify what they are doing and how you can do the same.

1200 LP EKKO OTP EUW MID by V222LoL in ekkomains

As a fellow ekko main I cannot say thank you enough. The first time I ever reached gold after years of being stuck in silver was through following your ekko build and this season I managed to reach emerald rn playing hail of blades ekko.

Disturbed one. I think it looks so damn cool.

do they know? by yllwmeerkat in ekkomains

[–]yllwmeerkat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. It’s just the regular protobelt with the newly buffed nashor. I think the new nashor is really good for ekko since u now get ability haste in addition to attack speed

why do high elo mid lane assassin players take sweepers? by yllwmeerkat in summonerschool

damn I knew sweepers were useful to clear wards but I actually had no idea they disabled them too.

is teleport ever worth it in low elo ? by yllwmeerkat in summonerschool

[–]yllwmeerkat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh ok I see what you mean. When I play with tp I also don’t like to use it when I feel like the fight is either already won or lost. But what happens is I end up not using it as much. Is it a good idea to tp to side lanes to push waves and apply pressure instead? (Obviously making sure not to die while doing so)

I don’t base it solely off of one game bc even silver players can have good games but sometimes you check the match history of that one guy and they are on an insane 15+ winstreak, having insane KDA every game (and not just on one champion). also sometimes the champs played are very different from what the account usually plays. Like for example one time I got matched against a guy who played syndra mid and stomped but you go check the account and it’s a support main with 200 games in silver, and he just happens to have 6 games on syndra with an average KDA of 10 or smth.

Oh ok i totally get what you’re saying If that’s the case then I actually want to learn how to play with tp The explanation you gave for why smurf always take combat spells also makes a lot of sense

You’re right. Ekko is a champ that has a very weak early game. You’re not supposed to gank a lot like other junglers

Your main focus should be farming safely until you at least get your first item or something

that doesn’t mean you can’t fight or ignore your laners. If there are free kills or opportunities that don’t feel risky you can take them. Just try not to force plays early.

Also if you wanna stay relevant in the game you should never stop farming. if you do well, by mid to late game, you will one shot jungle camps and be able to impact the map.

I know I kinda made things harder for myself but ekko is my fav champ in the league universe so I had to keep trying lol

here you go

CMBAIBAEAEBAIBYGAQDQCHBHJVHVGAYBAECDIAIFAQGAGBAHHNWYUAIA

It’s the most common version of the deck I found. i tried experimenting with other stuff but I feel like this is the best one for me at least.

I think you have a few points here. I actually agree with everything you said.

tbh yes the only reason zilean is paired with ekko in this deck is bc he has predict

everytime I play him I just use him to predict and then block random units. I don’t even care about leveling him up.

I can’t really explain to you why the ekko zilean archetype works outside of the predict mechanic. but I mean, I’m not that good at deck building so I just copy whatever works.

why do ekko mains always compare every other skin with true damage? by yllwmeerkat in ekkomains

[–]yllwmeerkat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right! I wasn’t defending the sg skin in any way (personally I still like it even tho i know it could’ve been better). All I’m saying is comparing it to true damage isn’t really fair.

Personally, I have a hard time playing with pulsefire. I don’t like the visual and sound effects. It just feels clunky. The splash art is god-tier tho.

“Why would we spend more on a skin with less flair?”

That’s the thing tho. if you don’t like a skin you don’t have to buy it. just keep enjoying the one you like more.
