League of Legends: The New Thread

[Accountant]

Okay so I sold my old account to someone else when I first quit because he wanted a smurf account(level 30) and I was, well, quitting. Only got $10 but he was a friend so it's k

HOWEVER that means I have to level up a brand new account

any tips for powerlevelling?

[Psyche]

win, buy exp boosts (time based - play extra games), don't overinvest emotionally, stick to blind picks (queue is faster)

[hiplop]

Don't sell your account then you don't need to power level

[Nosferatu]

use the money from the earlier sell to buy a lvl 30 account. Let it come full circle.

[PJ.]

Honestly, just buy a 30 account, yeah.

[Psyche]

oh yeah

[Psyche]

ill go back to playing ivern it is not in me to be anything other than a support

[Cabd]

The new Galio is a support main's style of toplaner holy shit it feels so smooth. And such easy waveclear on Q!

[Randomnamechange]

new galio feels really strong. Even with people not having gotten the hang of his dash he seems really strong at low ELOs.

[Iecerint]

I love Galio.

Anyone else here play top lane? How do you decide when you end your laning phase? I'm having trouble playing around low elo and I end laning phase 10-12min in. 25-75 I smash the enemy team, the rest of the time I end up trading back to parity, but it comes at a cost at letting my lane counterpart to ignore map and get back into the game. I feel like I take a complete 90° and kill my lane momentum. Maybe I'm too afraid to lose, but these are things I would used to do when I didn't suck at the game, so I'm going to be a typical solo queue player and blame my team for being unable to do anything with the small but real advantages I give them.

I don't really have the mental stamina or the free time to grind 100 games to knock sense into me. If you have a top lane hack, I'd like to know.

Currently I'm thinking Renekton is the best pick for me right now. Super good itemization right now, top lane carries are common in solo queue and he smashes them. Nobody counterpicks with Shen so you can blind pick and expect a winning lane. Only champion I've won with in ranked at least

pick maokai

[inte]

that champs fkin busted

[KaleiÐoscøpe]

Not since the e nerf. Now his lanephase is shit. Go Nautilus if you want a strong tank

[RayFrost]

Maokai's e was never a truly super significant part of his kit. His q is what you max and has been his main source of damage for the tanky build.

[animorpherv1]

The big thing is now you can actually punish a good Maokai and make him lose cs since the E nerf. Before he would just saplings the ranged/cannons

[PJ.]

Champ.gg has maokai as the worst champ in the game, ftr.

[KaleiÐoscøpe]

You could e q the backline at low level and win the push when e still did damage twice. Now Maokai just gets shoved in.

[Randomnamechange]

play shen he is great.

[Psyche]

singed is continually rewarding

[zoraster]

fiddlesticks support in EU LCS right now...

[Randomnamechange]

can't wait for that to leak into solo queue...

[animorpherv1]

Nah, they lost that game. You're good.

[Randomnamechange]

ok good

[Dunnstral]

Nah, they lost that game.

Doesn't matter

[PJ.]

I've already been playing it, before the EU LCS stuff. It's p good tbh.
