I made Plat s4/s5, and yeah, that's pretty much it. Don't be stupid and horribly out of postition, auto free targets, and you're pretty much a low-plat ADC. You don't need to be good at all to be Plat.

maaaaan

0/1/17 janna in a game with 22 kills, carry goes 4/1/9, placed and killed a ton of wards and I still don't get an S

rito what do you want from meeeeeeeeeeee? It feels like I only get S's as support when I play shitty and steal kills.

I'm in an ongoing with someone named Shaziro, so I assume that's the same guy. Never played League with him though.

She refused to group all game, just afk pushing bot and feeding whichever of lee/ekko/wukong wanted to pick up the free kill. We would've won if not for her. No fucking wonder she hates assassins.

Low plat, everyone, where good mechanics and the mind of a moron can get you here.

8/0/15 lulu with best kp in game on hexakill = A+

I guess it'a angry at me that I didn't CS and did no damage, but AP support Lulu doesn't do those things. I want to say that the featured game mode algorithm isn't tuned for supports.

Ah ranked is so stupid.
Losing your lane is
always
your fault in a sololane.

Junglers might be dumb sometimes and make it harder, but that just means you should have been winning the lane earlier. Even if your opponent is up gold/buffs you should be able to mechanically outplay them unless you're in masters+

what rank are you
I peaked at plat iv last season.

You don't need to be master's+ to abuse your lane, you need to be better than them. I could/can abuse people in high silver/low gold and get abused by high plat/low diamond.

Stormraider's best usage is on Nasus, by far, because it helps deal with his only real combat problem.

I play jung/supp and I think ARAM isn't bad practice. It's good for pure mechanical practice of outplaying, knowing when to go in, hitting/dodging ss.

I peaked at plat 4 so I'm not a god or anything but I'm at least not bad

It doesn't matter how good your ganks are if the enemy jungler can just murder you on CD.
^^^

Unless the opposing jungler is brain dead, you're going to get invaded 24/7 and your shit pushed in. You can probably get away with it if the enemy jungler is an absolutely garbage duelist, like Amumu, but most meta junglers will just destroy you, especially with how good early skirmishers are now.

yeah, if it does 500 dmg and you're at <500, it just kills you like urgot ult does. armor, shields, DR, all get fucked

it's pretty brilliant as an anti-shield counter, and also as a way for him to be able to burst tanks without being unstoppable vs squishies

nami is actually the strongest traditional support right now in terms of wr, and from personal experience I also agree she's the best

they nerfed most of the direct damage botlane. sona, janna etc, so if nami can get multiple bounces off W she's got the best damage of any enchanter right now

so I just did 3s placements for lulz in the hopes I'd get gold or better, in the assumption that they're gonna do victorious chromas like last year. I ended gold v in 3s last year because I did the same thing, went 7-3 this year, and I just placed into plat v. this is actually my first time placing plat in any queue. the times I've been in plat before I had to grind up to there. I think my best placement was gold ii or something.

idk whether i should be pumped or mad the one queue riot placed me well in is fucking 3s lmao

The last thing I found enjoyable in League was playing Zyra, but she's legitimately not viable with Brand being a god tier support. The options are banning it or playing Soraka or Karma every game, maybe Morg, and I like Morg, but I half pick Morg to win lane, going for pick potential never ends well. Brand is a great ban, but then you miss out on Aatrox and Wukong, or at least you did, they were supposed to have been nerfed in a recent patch.

In my last games I was basically suiciding and 1v1ing everybody with Zyra because that's what the meta is. Regular League is basically URF. An arcade game. 30 minutes of your life per game is an arcade game. Not worth it.
In post 3832, PJ. wrote:Hate to break it to you, but "shot caller" has never been a role or a thing in solo q unless you were/are the super fed guy. No one listens to the 0/3 "macro genius"
Plainly not true. Shotcaller was a thing, and people would ask for someone to make calls if nobody was making any.
Zyra is better than Brand in almost every elo rn - Brand is doing better in Bronze, but Zyra's doing great there, so it's not like it matters that much.

panzer's been doing this for years for some reason

if it helps any, I peaked higher than he did and I have absolutely seen/done that kind of shotcalling. It's true that nobody listens to you if your KDA is bad, but if you play enchanter supports, it turns out you pretty much only appear to have a bad KDA when you fuck up really bad. Nobody really cares if Nami's 0/3 as long as it's like 0/3/7 or something.

I need to suss out just *how* impractical
he'd be and whether teammates will just riot when I pick him, but games I've played so far haven't been a struggle at all. Eventually I'll either have enough courage to try him in ranked or just abandon him.
you're going to have a hard time doing that in norms tbh

karthus's big weakness is that you can just invade him and murder him for free as any aggressive jungler, and people don't counterjungle nearly as much in norms for some reason. he's also gonna get harder to climb with as you go up and people start getting brains about how to counter him

Old, but probably still mostly accurate:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MordekaiserMai ... osts_have/

Jinx passive does work, Draven's does not. It seems like most/all of the passives that apply debuffs on AA still work - Braum, Naut, Darius, etc. so that's actually pretty consistent. It seems passives in general, besides just AA debuffs are not consistent, though, which isn't really a surprise to me because #morde.
