I dont own ziggs sorry

[PJ.]

Someone pick a champion. I will play that champion the best I can when I next play a game(couple hours later) and post results.

Annie

[RayFrost]

Annie if mid, kz if jungle, nautilus if top, caitlyn if adc, leona if support

Secondaries are karthus, graves, fiora, tristana, braum

[Accountant]

I have annie, kz, caitlyn, karthus, graves, tristana. I'll go mid/jg for ranked and pick the one that applies.

[Accountant]

I couldn't get mid lane, so I went Kha'Zix jungle instead.

[Accountant]

excellent outcome. got into a series with an S- on kz(you can't quite see it on the screen, but me and darius both got S-) hopefully I can promote to silver IV with annie mid, as promised.

[Voidedmafia]

Do they understand how to manipulate the lane?
Do they know how to punish the enemy bot lane's minor mistakes?
Do they understand when they're stronger than the other team in full trades/all-ins?
Do they know how to initiate for ganks?
Do they know how to predict and prepare to counter 4-man or 5-man ganks?
Do they know when to back? When to roam?
Do they know where the most important places to ward is throughout the game and how to determine this?
Do they know how to build? (This is STILL a common problem in my ELO)

No, but then I've barely played Support at all since S3 and it's a wildly different game than what I'm used to.

I need to find time to get my placements done. Ever since those stupid d/cs I haven't really mustered the will to try to finish those.

[Voidedmafia]

Do you still have a spot in the MS club, Zor?

[animorpherv1]

We have 1 spot apparently.

[Accountant]

finally got annie mid. did very well

[Accountant]

Alright, who else has champ suggestions for me to play?

[RayFrost]

hecarim / gragas / rek'sai jungle, caitlyn / trist adc, veigar / xerath / lux mid, volibear / rumble / maokai top

Listed in order of preference.

[Accountant]

Veigar/voli mid/top it is

[Accountant]

did poorly against fizz

[Accountant]

Another loss against TF mid. Playing as veigar was very unpleasant - I was forced to farm, rather than pressure and kill my lane opponent, which is my preferred way of playing mid lane. Even worse, it felt like I was making a tradeoff between farming with my q and poking/damaging with it. my stun was very hard to lane, since I wasn't used to veigar's mechanics. I think I'll be giving this champion a pass, at least in ranked, until I feel more comfortable with the way he handles.

[Voidedmafia]

We have 1 spot apparently.

Can I take it?

Acc.: I'm pretty sure Veigar is more dependent on getting Q stacks than he is killing the opposing laner. It's not like he can't, just that if it doesn't net him a kill its kinda not worth it (unless you trade with E's).

[Nosferatu]

How do people do well as irelia? I haven't had many good games with her and I have no idea how to carry with her.

Depends

If you have a hypercarry, peel. If they have a hypercarry(master yi, let's say) stick to that guy like glue and keep stunning and slowing him. Otherwise just throw your weight around, slam ults into enemy team, dive their backline, be a bruiser that forces people to bow and shrugs off cc

[Ankamius]

You can try watching Gbay99 to see what you're doing different mechanically. He's not super good (his MMR is still not

quite

diamond level yet, he still mostly fights high-plats), but it can be a good starting point if you're a lower rank than he is.

[DeathNote]

It is very hard to win in this game and quite easy to lose.

[Ankamius]

I think I need to stop duoing. Most of the random supports I get nowadays seem to know what they're doing.

I may or may not have been hasty in declaring this before.

[Accountant]

It is very hard to win in this game and quite easy to lose.

This statement is impossible. The game is zero sum, so if it's easy to lose then your opponent will find it easy to lose as well - which means it can't be hard to win.

[DeathNote]

Dude, your words are weird. Game is hard to win, if it were easy then I could win more.

[Accountant]

If the game is hard to win then your opponents would find it hard to win too

[DeathNote]

But they don't. And they beat me.
