was very surprised to get a chest after this game, I'm involved in only 7 out of 48 kills. Maybe its easier on low lvl accounts or maybe dragon kills count towards your score I got 4 this game.
Nunu should only be graded on enemy jungle camps taken, dragons/barons and enemy jungle damage

Played with a 4 man stack against another 4 man stack, result was that the ****tard jungle of mine didn't gank my lane nor did he ward or do anything at all for me all because I wasn't part of the club, while the whole enemy team chilled in my lane.

That's fun. Can't wait to get out of mid plat, not even funny how bad people are and how badly im downswinging.

TFW you get 5 Drags and they are 3x mountain and 2x cloud and your team is outscaled.

Won this game... never seen a non-surrender win without getting a tower. (Look at the objective bar.)

So no one was near them? Just minion take downs? Was there a morde in the game and does the dragon not give credit if it downs a turret?

My guess is that all tower kills are hidden in the + of the dragons/inhib.

Mystery solved, I never noticed the + before.

We got top outer at 22:00 minutes after our first dragon. We got the rest with the nexus after baron at the end, obscured by the dragon and inhibitor. Before that baron we were down 3 dragons to 1, a baron, 8 towers to 1, 16 kills, and lost an inhibitor twice. We essentially aced them three times in a row for 15 kills without a death to close the game.

We had lMaokai with Sunfire/Spirit Visage/Righteous Glory/Thornmail and Skarner with Cinderhulk/Iceborn/Dead Man's Plate/Thornmail.

They had Pantheon/Shyvana/Kalista/Fizz and tank OP.

I have been playing like trash the last couple days, missing all my sona ults, blitz hooks, getting raged at by team, etc. Yet I keep winning, went 10-2 in my last 12 and made it to d3, wtf?

Congratz on reaching a good elo, you'll see that people will be significantly stronger in D3 compared to D5 etc.

You've moved up to where people respect your aggression.

There is a sort of "culture shock" once you reach D2-D3, people react differently to ganks, they dodge differently and the trigger will be pulled instantly.

Example Rengar:

Low elo:

I'm in stealth it's a 1v1, carry tries to run and uses gapcloser to escape.

Higher elo:

I'm in stealth, they position in minions,so I can't bola them, they wait till I jump out then try to dodge the jump.

If somebody pulls the trigger, everybody usually follows without thinking.

I don't think so, I think the level you think people play well is the level of your incompetence rather than their being a magic elo

There's always a jump between S5 and S3, G5 and G3, P5 and P3 ... because dropping from a tier requires to be quite bad and lose a lot of games compared to dropping a division

So there's a lot of people stuck with 0lp in the bottom division of every tier and if you are on the upswing those players looks naturally way worse than you

Just played vs fed Aatrox plus Kindred/Karthus/Taric/Lucian. The amount of damage and not dying was disgusting. I don't know how you win a team fight against that.

We had feeding Nasus plus Warwick/Jarvan Mid/Jinx/Sona. Should've just dodged.

Next game, I've already locked Janna and dude switches from Ashe to Ryze to AP carry bot. FFS.

Doesn't really seem dodge worthy to me, Nasus should smash Aatrox, if he doesn't unlucky variance. Jarvan should also be rather good against Karthus and I don't know too much about botlane matchups but it shouldn't be a lost matchup prob.

And lategame Nasus should put down splitpush pressure and you just waveclear mid trying not to die.

Haven't played in ages (like a month) and just played my anti-decay game. My mechanics definitely got quite a bit worse but my decision making got better XD. I'm less greedy.

Pretty close to quitting. As a solo player I feel pressured into queuing and voice chatting with people to maximize my impact and that significantly raises the time commitment the game requires. Not to mention frequent 10+ minute queues in Gold for jungle/mid. Solo queue without role selection, you shall be missed.

A post that describes what would have not sucked:

Quote:
What could/should have been.

What the game needed was a better team ranked system with an in-game team search feature. "3 friends looking for adc and support to build a competitive ranked team"->invite, and let's go.
The wonderful thing about that is that the adc and support, who might be solo players, will be willing to play with the 3-man premade. They create a team/join an existing one, and we're off on an adventure ! If it doesn't work, we say goodbye to each other and find another two players. If it does, we continue playing team rankeds in order to improve as 5, and may be participate in online tournaments/LANs.
Along with a better matchmaking, this could have been the competitive team game people (Riot, I, and many others) were longing for, a game where you improve as a team against people who want the same thing. At the same time, people who wanted to improve alone could freely go in solo queue.

riot is so authoritarian these days idk where it came from

"we know better" attitude just runs through them

utter control of the competitive scene, shutting down topics on reddit and other boards, taking stuff other companies try and fail with because they just assume they can do it better. Was not this way in the past
