    Worlds 2019: What'd We Learn?

    Trying out a reoccuring thread that we may look to do with all pro splits/tournaments: What'd We Learn? The point of these threads will be to share/discuss things that we can absorb from some of the best players in the world and apply to ourselves - or in other words, what can we, as average players, take from these matches that can help us improve in soloq? Or even a step further - can we take anything here to help us in the eternally upcoming Clash?

    That means saying that we learned not to give Tian Lee Sin, while true, is not useful for any of us here. Please try to keep it relevant for the users!

    To jump start I'd like to highlight some specific content that I saw floating around:

    So: What did you learn? What did you have questions about? How do you feel about some of this content, and what are the best takeaways? I recommend checking comments by both new and best to get as many ideas seen as possible!

    This thread will be rotated in and out of the sticky slot for a few days so that everyone who watches, even if a little late, will hopefully be able to see and participate.

    Depending on how these threads do, we may look to make them a permanent rotation for future pro splits and tournaments. If you have feedback or suggestions, please leave them in our modmail: https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2Fsummonerschool

    Thanks!

    How to win Mid lane STEP by STEP. (Challenger Orianna)

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 01:31 AM PST

    Hey Summonerschool,

    I recently made a video where I versed a professional player, and broke down the fundamentals of how to approach laning phase as a mid laner. I try to describe and step you through my thought process so you can all replicate it in your own games. I then compare it with an example from a platinum mid laner to see what the main differences were and describe where he could change his gameplay using the same fundamentals.

    Take a look, I hope it helps!

    Hear my story of a partially disabled veteran, league of legends, bullying, hope, and what you can do this Holiday to promote one, and squash the other.

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:35 PM PST

    I'm going to try to keep this brief, but if you have questions, feel free to ask, I'll try to respond when I can.

    I can post my account handles here, but long story short, 2 years ago, my claim to fame, was having the 7th most games played in North America....

    Problem was..highest I ever hit was p2.

    Most people now a days run lolwiz, facecheck, etc, and you can about imagine the types of dialogue that gets created 10 seconds into a game when you have thousands of games played, and are quite possibly the most hard stuck player they have ever seen.

    What lolwiz, facecheck, and other tools don't tell you, is what's happening behind that keyboard.

    I was partially injured in an attack during a mission I participated in Afghanistan. My role was essentially, on site help desk support, with guns. I wasn't a hero by any stretch of the imagination. "Good enough" shot, but action wasn't my middle name.

    The majority of my deployment was...cake walk to be honest. Picture an episode of "Workaholics" minus the weed, and insert desert, some highly racial/islamophobic humor, mixed in with some college frat pranks, and that was my deployment. It was certainly not a cutscene from Call of Duty.

    However, to this day, one bad day, can really, really, really mess you up. Body heals. Brain....takes time.

    To get back to League of Legends, now a days, I work from home as an I.T contractor, and well, I get to play so many games, because I'm either really good at my job..or bad, however which way you want to see it.

    3 years ago I attempted suicide several times. Survivors guilt is something I'm not facing alone, I participate in groups with a bunch of us in it, and it takes its toll in all kinds of ways.

    League of Legends was my way to cope with many things, it was my way to risk having friendships again. Streaming every day to only a handful of people who always came to check on me, meant something to me. It got me out of my shell. If it wasn't for League, I don't know where I'd be.

    Would my VA counselor tell you I'm using League in unhealthy ways? Sure. Is my VA counselor a total snore? Yep. Does she mean well. I hope so.

    I guess all I'm trying to say is, sometimes, a game is a game, and that's what you should treat it as. But sometimes, you don't know what's going on the behind the scenes, and unfortunately, that guy who is griefing, or saying some pretty hurtful things....he might be the most tormented of them all.

    It doesn't excuse being a bully, but sometimes an explanation can help your own coping.

    Mute/all works wonders, some like it, some don't. Depends on the day for me.

    sigh sorry if I'm all over the board on this, I just really kind of wanted to get all these emotions and thoughts down, and I thought to myself, maybe there's like one other guy out there, going through the same shit I am, maybe its not PTSD, but something else, and if he reads this, and it helps him shrug off the bullying he next gets.....well then...it was worth it.

    GL to all you summoners, and to my fellow vets....well you can't break my body down.

    Thanks,

    I recently switched roles after 10 years, and I wish I'd done it sooner

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 07:06 AM PST

    I've been playing since beta, and I've always...ALWAYS been a jungler. Since my very first game ever, I've been a jungler. Warwick on the OG twisted treeline, with the red buff lizard in the middle of the map.

    I love jungle. I love everything about it, I love the game of chess, of cat and mouse. I love the element of surprise, I love dictating the pace of the game. I love keeping timers on objectives, securing all the drakes and all the barons and rift herald. I love standing in a lane after a successful gank, spamming emotes while my laners pick up the kill I spoon fed them.

    But idk... its just kinda gotten stale to me. Seems every season they make jungle worse and worse. I don't feel I have the same impact on a game as I used to, even if I play my best.

    So i've had an alt account for years and years that I never use for anything -- so I decided "I'm gonna start queuing support on my alt account, fuck it why not?"

    I've been hardstuck G4/G3 on my main account for years. Can't ever seem to break into platinum.

    I've been playing on my alt account spamming support for about 3 weeks, and i'm at G3 still gaining 22-25 LP per win, with a 60%+ win rate on all 4 of my main champs (Nautilus, Leona, Morgana, Soraka), 54% win rate overall.

    I feel like I have so much control. I feel like I'm contributing so much. My vision control is fantastic. I routinely get friend requests after games. I feel like I'm happier, I feel like I'm enjoying the game again. I wish I'd done it months ago. YEARS ago.

    ​

    However -- I'm still relatively new to to the role, so I was wondering if there are any hard and fast pro tips anyone wants to offer as far as things they see supports in Gold/Plat do that they could possibly be doing better? What sort of tricks of the trade have you developed over your support experience?

    I also have a few pretty specific questions:
    - How many control wards do you typically buy by the end of the game?

    - Once you fall behind on the vision game, how do you stop the bleeding? How do you re-establish vision and stop the enemy from just clearing all of your wards seconds after you place them?

    - In a lane with 2 hard engage supports, lets say Leona Vs Nautilus -- how do you play that? Do you wait for them to engage and then look for a favorable counter? Do you wanna be the first one to make a move? How does leona play this? How does nautilus play this? I routinely end up in this matchup, and usually I fare better when I'm on the Nautilus side of it. How can I do better when I'm on the leona side of it?

    - What sort of criteria need to be met in order for it to be appropriate for a support to roam to mid, or roam with the jungler? Whenever I roam, I find myself falling behind in levels and gold, and I'm not really sure how to do this better.

    ​

    Thanks everyone!

    Quick Guide to Senna (Gameplay tips, items, runes, and mistakes to not do)

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 01:41 AM PST

    Yeah she's not out for at least another half a day and of course there's not much experience playing her, so what's up with this quick guide?

    I gathered as much accurate information as possible to help alleviate confusion and frustration. Senna works quite differently than most champions and hopefully this will help players get a better experience as I'm predicting a lot of hardship over her initial days.

    Much thanks to Riot August and Riot Auberaun, who answered a lot of questions on August's stream while he demonstrated gameplay.

    I will not be going over her abilities as I am assuming you already know what they are, but I do go over the lesser known / less obvious aspects of each one, including some myth busting on confusing aspects.

    After that are some recommended runes and items, mostly based on what Riot August and Auberaun demonstrated.

    The Basics

    • Senna's passive spawns Mist from nearby killed minions, but this is higher if she does not do the killing. It's 20% normally, but drops to 5.5% for minions she kills. This means support Senna will generally have higher passive stacks, though a farming Senna can catch up if she hits enemy champions a lot. Cannon minions, large monsters, and champions always drop a Mist.

    • Senna's passive against champions works with attacks and abilities in any combination. This means you can proc her passive against champions with two attacks, or a Q + auto, or a W+ Q, etc. You are not wholly reliant on auto'ing twice or more in a row.

    • Senna's attack speed ratio is the worst in the game. It is at 0.2, whereas most champs have ~0.65. What this means is that attack speed is only ~30% efficient on her. That's really bad. Thus, building attack speed is weak on her, and you should value other aspects of items if you incidentally get an item with attack speed stats.

    • Senna does not gain any AD per level - she is wholly reliant on farming Mists for AD. This means any interactions with Base AD is extremely weak on Senna. In other words, Sheen items including Triforce, are terrible on her.

    • It is not worth overcapping crit as the conversion to lifesteal from overcapping crit is pretty bad.

    • Senna is fairly mana hungry, as her Q costs are astronomical for a spell expected to be casted a lot. Be wary.

    • Her attacks and Q do not create a projectile, and thus Windwall has no effect on them. Her ultimate counts as two fast projectiles (damage beam and shield beam) which can be blocked by Windwall, and it is possible for the shield beam to be blocked but not the damage beam.

    • Given this information, she greatly values AD and penetration, similar to Jhin (coincidentally also another Riot August design). Stacking crit is not as valuable due to her passive giving her free crit chance but making her crits deal a lot less damage (IE is still good though). She is very mana hungry and benefits from some early mana regen. Her AP scalings are fairly weak although she can make decent use out of some items like Athene's Unholy Grail.

    • From everything I've observed her ADC seems lacking in terms of damage - she is easily outdamaged by most other ADCs. She is meant to make up for this due to her kit (supportive and utility), and as August confirmed she is best when against squishies. She performs poorly against tanky foes and wants front-to-back battles - she's not great at dealing with divers and performs best when she can keep sniping at range. I'm of the opinion her support will be the strongest of the two roles.

    Gameplay Tips

    • Senna's Q procs on-hit effects in an area. It also collects Mists hit in the area. Q also damages turrets and wards, making it useful to help push and to clear wards faster (as she attacks really slowly). It also count as an auto attack reset.

    • Q can target anything, allied or not. This means wards, Mists, Turrets, structures, plants, even Yorick's W walls. Use this for good angles and range extension. Confirmation needed for more weirder things like Jarvan's flag and Thresh's lantern.

    • Senna's E counts as camouflage. True Sight or close proximity (basically within the visible cloud) is required to reveal those hidden. True Sight can be from Scryer's Bloom, Pink Wards, and certain abilities.

    • Note that only abilities that actually provide True Sight will reveal through camouflage. This means things like Swain's W and Jinx's W will NOT reveal camouflaged units (they don't provide True Sight), even though it may look like it from the opponent's perspective (I tested this out in-game).

    • W roots the area instantly if the target is killed by it (usually a minion). Use this to your advantage to get a quick surprise root.

    Runes

    • Support: Aery is likely the safest, easiest option. Dark Harvest and Glacial Augment have also been mentioned by playtesters as situational but potentially good keystones. Alleviate mana issues with Manaflow Band and/or Biscuits.

    • Special mention: Kleptomancy has been mentioned to be fantastic on Senna (Q procs it too!) but it will only last for one patch (9.22). Use it while you can!

    • ADC: Fleet Footwork seems like a perfect fit for her, given lack of both sustain and mobility. She potentially could use Press the Attack via auto-Q-auto combo, although keep in mind she attacks too slowly to favour a fast all-in approach.

    • Remember to pick Bloodline or Tenacity as again attack speed is inefficient on her.

    Items

    Note Senna was balanced around the preseason changes, so things could be weird this one patch.

    Support:

    • For this patch only, starting Spellthief is ideal on her as it gives her adaptive stats instead of AP. Basically meaning you get a lot of AD from it.

    After this patch, go for whatever new support items that grant AD.

    • After Spellthief, at least one AD item is recommended as Senna needs some damage to stay relevant, as her 'enchanter' qualities are not as strong as an actual enchanter character. Duskblade is fantastic since it allows ward clearing, gives her AD and penetration, and can be triggered multiple times with her E.

    • Note that Executioner's Calling can be a great buy on her especially since most supports cannot get Grievous Wound until way later. If they have healers, can grab it early.

    • After that, build accordingly. If ahead, keep building AD and penetration. Otherwise if behind, Athene's can be made to decent use to keep healing/shielding high.

    ADC:

    • Getting more than 40 souls (+30% crit chance) at 20 minutes into a game seems pretty feasible/common, so try not to overdo getting crit items. Start Doran's Blade, and build towards Infinity Edge. After that it's up to the situation - you can get one more crit item if the effects would be valuable (for example, Phantom Dancer for defense, RapidFire Cannon for more range, Runaan's Hurricane for AoE and Q spam). RH probably has the most utility as although she attacks slowly, it can reduce her Q CD 3x faster per attack, gives her much needed AoE (the bolts will still hit harder as per her passive, and keeps up with her range), and conveniently helps collects Mists.

    • Aside from maximum two crit items, Death's Dance can be a good item on her.

    • Since she doesn't need attack speed, boots upgrade can for once be something else. Swiftness is likely a great buy.

    • An interesting experiment is to see if Manamune is worth getting over rushing IE. Due to her immense mana problems, building towards Manamune may be better for her as it gives plenty of AD and mana pretty cheaply. She attacks too slowly to make use of the evolved Muramana, although her Q will proc on-hit in large areas.

    • Essence Reaver may be a trap on her as she attacks way too slowly to make good use of the mana restore.

    • Remember she scales well with penetration. Last Whisper items earlier than usual can be worth it.

    LWX Sivir Full Build

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 09:22 AM PST

    Noticed at the end of game 1 that LWX sold his boots for triforce on Sivir. Is this really optimal or would he have been better off buying a Bloodthirster/another defensive item? I can understand the reasoning behind buying it, with her W being an auto reset, but the benefits don't seem big enough to make it worth buying over something else.

    When to Fast Push, Slow Push, and Freeze?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 10:09 AM PST

    I have a lot of questions about wave management. When do you fast push, slow push, and freeze? I understand vaguely how to do them, but I never know when I actually should.

    On top of that, do people actually just leave a few enemy minions alive in a lane when they slow push and then leave the lane? It seems kind of a waste of gold to me. Is this actually what you're supposed to do?

    Finally, what happens if you just killed an enemy in your lane but you don't have the waveclear to push, like you're out of mana or smth? I think you're supposed to fast push after you kill your laner, but what do you do in this situation?

    Do you guys use a different resolution to make your FOV bigger?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 01:31 PM PST

    I really never see anyone talk about it, but I tried it yesterday after watching a tutorial and it makes the FOV significantly wider. Really helps me especially on jhin, it's also easier to move your camera. Really the only downside is that everything on your screen is smaller. Is this something a lot of people do? Before I did this I was having trouble keeping track of everything on the screen and moving it around correctly.

    Which role best fits a aggressive play style?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 10:35 AM PST

    I'm fairly new to league but in most games I play I enjoy a very aggressive playstyle where I disrupt enemies, force mistakes and sometimes rack up the occasional kill. I mostly enjoy fighting hard and getting up close and personal given I play tank in most games like FFXIV and Overwatch.

    Hi there,

    Today we take a look at Qiyana in the Midlane.

    Show up in other people's lanes like no one's business or farm up for mighty follow ups. This video commentary is packed with info to find out how much of a team player an assassin can/needs to be. Decide for yourself if that's what you're in for or just pick Qiyana anyway to find out how much better she is than her nine sisters~! She totally is.

    Hope you tune in and enjoy the show. Further feel free to leave tempered feedback, supportive comments or how you feel about the champ in general. Come again! :)

    What to do with a top lane lead?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:44 PM PST

    Since I usually play wuk top, I have to come back in the mid game, so I'm used to just avoiding the top laner in straight up 1v1s and helping my team with my teamfight potential to get ahead.

    But what about on other champs that are more standard and can usually win lane hard? It's a completely different playstyle. My winrate actually dropped significantly when I started playing meta champs top because instead of going even in lane and then helping my team to snowball, I would smash lane and then just throw the lead because idk what to do with it. Any help?

    Important Climbing Tip: The Two Stages of Observation

    Posted: 09 Nov 2019 05:57 PM PST

    Hey guys! I hope I can take a few minutes of your day to help you with an important thing to take into consideration when making the last push for this season. It's called the two stages of observation.

    Stage one is what 99.99% of players are doing. It's observing what is happening each game, what you're doing, and what your teammates are doing. That's some pretty rudimentary stuff; almost everyone's aware of what's going on when they play the game.

    Stage two however is what a lot of players all the way up to diamond don't do unfortunately. It's observing what isn't happening each game, what you're not doing, and what your teammates aren't doing. At first it seems like a pretty easy concept to understand and many people believe they are exercising this when they're not quite getting it. A very common example of this would be jungler position that I'm sure everyone has seen: if the enemy jungler ganks top, where are they NOT? Bot lane right? So you're safe to push a bit more aggressively. This isn't exactly what I mean by the second stage of observation.

    When coaching, something I hear all too often, "I always win lane!" this leads me to believe that they know what to do during laning phase. But it poses a possibility that they don't know what to do with their lead. After observing a few vods, they seem to hold true to their claim but I also notice they aren't really taking any calculated risks. 3/0 on Xerath but making no effort to transition that top or bot lane. They also aren't warding, rotating with the enemy lux, or even going after tower plates. They were winning lane, yes. But they weren't doing a lot of stuff.

    The same applies for when players believe it's okay to forego cs in favor of kills. To an extent, yes it's better to go for a kill than to go for a wave. But bear in mind that 12-15 cs equates to kill gold and MUCH more experience. The fizz is 12/6/4 at 20 minutes but has a laughable 92 cs. If that 92 was like 180 it would be the same as being 18/6/4, a much more threatening K/D/A. On top of that, fizz neglected his lane so much that the enemy zed took all 5 tower plates and got first tower while he was trying to get more kills bot lane.

    Paying attention to what ISN'T happening or what you're NOT doing can be even more important than understanding what you ARE doing. League is like whack-a-mole. Every time you cover a hole, you're also leaving a bunch of other holes open. The key is to judge which action is the best to take at that given point in time. If you opt to play safe in lane to chill and farm up, you're also giving away lane priority which can lead to a butterfly effect of your jungler getting 2v1'ed by your lane opponent and enemy jungler. If you're warding the dragon pit to secure the upcoming elder, there's a high chance the baron pit is completely dark, which could open up the opportunity for the enemy team to sneak baron (if they're smart).

    These are all broad examples, but there are definitely more specific ones. Even things such as the enemy renekton blowing tiamat on the wave to clear. That could mean they're not trying to fish for a lane kill or are expecting you to engage on them. Spamming Q and W as Ahri on minions means you're trying to hard shove, but it also means you're reckless with your mana and aren't preparing for potential skirmishes.

    Getting into the habit of thinking about what you're NOT doing along with what you ARE doing can allow you to figure out many things regarding your playstyle. What you may perceive as a good habit could be concealing your more insidious bad habits. It may be a bit hard to figure out at first but after you get the hang of the second stage of observation, you can find yourself more conscious in each game which might be just what you need to make the push to plat, diamond or even master.

    A lot of challenger streamers practice second stage observation so if you watch their streams you might pick up a few things :D

    Mental and Gameplay Help

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 08:58 AM PST

    Hey all, sorry to bother you, was just going to ask for a bit of help, and yes this probably isn't the right place so can someone move it to where it needs to be :(

    So the help I'm asking for is kind of mentally and some gameplay issues, I'm a gold 4 top lane player, playing in a silver/gold league which me and my team recently got to the finals of, which are being played Monday. The split started well, but recently my mentality during games has sucked, I hate to under perform and to lose games even normals. I get really twitchy about dying in lane, being stupid with decisions and plays I make and it really stresses me out. This in turn makes me tilt when I die and I fall further behind and then my KDA looks awful and since the games are streamed I look awful in others eyes too. Because I play a lot of tanks I feel my job is too survive and not die so when I do it really damages my mental. Because of this issue my game play suffers and I just make more stupid choices and die for it. I also struggle to understand some basic mechanics of top lane such as wave management as I've only played the role for two seasons. I just feel like I'm really struggling with my laning phase.

    Sorry if this is long and all but I was wondering if you people could help me in any way. But thanks for reading anyway. My IGN is SirJonjo and I play on EUW.

    Senna Mechanics/Combo Showcase

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 01:32 AM PST

    Hello r/summonerschool!

    I've made a video which shows some of mechanics and combos for the new champion Senna.

    Link!

    tldw:

    - Her Q can target "almost" anything.- Wards, Minions, Jungle plants, Turrets, Mist wraiths(her passive), Zyra seeds, Jhin traps, J4 flags,...

    - Her Q can pop jungle plants.

    - Her W instantly roots when the marked target dies- So lasthit with W for instant root (for some reason it's not stated in the skill descriptions)

    - You can hide your ult animation with R + Flash in the opposite direciton

    - And most important: Yasuo's Windwall doesn't block Q or Autoattacks.

    Is it possible to create a balanced champion pool of only flex position champions for multiple roles?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 03:46 PM PST

    That can be played in multiple roles, so I can comfortably queue as a Flex? So far I've been thinking of Poppy (top, jungle, mid, support), Tristana (top, mid, adc), maybe Swain? (top, mid, support, adc)? So there's like a tank, ad champion and an ap champion. Would this be advisable? What would be some other champions?

    Ornn (top, jungle, support)?

    I'm looking in trying to minimize the number of champions so I can be very comfortable on only a few of them for multiple roles.

    Wave control in the bot lane?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 03:42 PM PST

    Hi guys,

    I wanna preface this by saying this season I hit plat 2 with adc. I feel like my mechanics are strong, and my macro is slowly improving, but I'd like to improve my wave management in bot lane, and I guess in general too.

    I can set up freezes easily. I freeze if they have an engage support(e.g alistar) to stop the risk of being engaged on. Or, I'll freeze if they push me in and I have a lead, and so by freezing I can deny them a lot of farm. The problem here is when should I freeze, vs pushing?

    Should I push to try for plates? Should I only push if my team are contesting dragon so they have to choose to catch the wave or miss it?

    Normally when I kill the bot lane and I see the opportunity, I'll push the wave in to deny them cs. The problem is I struggle to control the wave if it's not pushing say, so I don't push them in, but how do I stop it slow pushing to them giving him a huge wave for free? Should I just not touch the wave?

    I'm also trying to get better at keeping my cs up mid-late. How can I make sure I'm catching waves/recalling at the right time? Even higher plat feels a bit ARAM like sometimes...

    Anyways, just looking for some advice. I feel like I've improved a lot this season and I'm proud of myself. I just want to get as good as I can!! Thanks in advance :)

    Plat 3 ADC looking to improve.

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 03:39 PM PST

    Hi, so i've been climbing in plat since for the past month and ended up peaking at Plat 2 50 LP.

    I'm now looking for advice to get to at least mid Diamond.

    My champ pool looks like this:

    Xayah 256K

    Jinx 230K

    Cait 146K

    Lucian 128K

    Vayne 110K

    I have all ADC's on Mastery 7 with at least 40K points so i guess my Champion pool is not something i have to improve yet, right?

    I know that some of my weaknesses are junglers. I tend to not ward that well or simply push the wave too much without knowing anything about the enemy jungler. I also happen to have trouble with attack speed steroids like Lethal tempo or Mf's W, where i end up cancelling my first auto after transitioning from high AS to regular AS. Did anyone have the same issue and if so, how did you practice to avoid it?

    I'd mostly like to improve my macro and especially my mid game phase. I tend to not know what to do after either getting the first turret on bot or losing my own turret. I'm also interested in learning a few flex botlane picks like Syndra or smth like that. But any kind of advice is welcome.

    Looking forward to hearing from you guys, ty :3.

    How do I learn how to kite efficiently?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:51 PM PST

    I've been playing for 5 seasons now and I never bothered learning how to kite because I usually played mages but I recently started playing ADCs. My current "kiting" consists of just right clicking to move backwards and left clicking to attack, rinse and repeat but it's pretty bad and in teamfights it really doesn't work at all.

    So how do I learn how to kite efficiently?

    How do I improve my skills?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 08:48 AM PST

    I just started playing league about a month ago and I really like the game but right now, I'm feeling a little stuck. I cannot play much due to academics and my parents are also really against video games in general. I don't think I'm improving and it gets frustrating when I keep constantly dying. I'm not looking to play ranked or anything, I just want to get better in general. Any tips or suggestions are much appreciated!

Also when is it ok to start cull or when shoul I buy it, from my point of view seems a good item but no one starts it. I'll appreciate any help! Cheers

    Melee vs range champion?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:22 PM PST

    Hello! I wanted to ask you to give me some tips on playing with a melee champion versus a range one. I really struggle with farming because most of the times when I go to hit a minion I get poked really hard and sometimes take lots of damage. I main Ekko mid and playing versus range mid champions is really hard for me to win my lane and even farm. However I would appreciate any tips in general about how to play against range champion while being a melee.

    Help me become a better Kha'Zix

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:15 PM PST

    Hi everyone, I was asking for some help on a youtube video about being a Kha OTP, I'm platinum 4 on LAN and I have been a jungler for quite some time now..

    Recently I moved from my country and I'm starting all over on the LAS server as an Kha OTP, I really like to play him and would like to know everything you could teach me about him.

    Also, If you could recommend a good streamer/youtuber that plays Kha at a good level I'd love to know.

    Thanks.

    Is there a point in building defensively as adc?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 06:33 AM PST

    As an adc my job is to dish out as much damage as possible, safely, while helping my team siege or get objectives. But every once in a while I'll get a game where the enemy has one champ that can one shot me pretty much. I've found that even when I build one or two defenses I still die almost immediately, and regret my choice for even wasting gold on stats that don't ever save me anyway.

    Wanting to become the teams coach/drafter.

    Posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:00 PM PST

    This isn't a try hard team, in fact it's made up of friends who are all gold/plat. The reason I want to draft/coach is because I believe I have fairly competent game knowledge/champ knowledge of how champs and team comps interact late in the game. I'm more so looking at the side of drafting as I believe if you draft decently in flex it makes the games so much easier. My issue is that because it is not that serious (we want to win and improve) but the teammates aren't going to play enough to play more than 3 ish champs, how should I go about drafting then? I know this is slightly vague but that is because this is the beginning of my attempt to draft/coach for the team.
