If you're content with silver and barely being over the starting elo, sure.
If you actually want to play against better people or get better, then keep playing.

Yeah, I knew that, ldo.

Anyway, good job cruzer - you guys are really improving incredibly fast and now that I know you are a 2p2er, the wife and I have a new favorite team to root for.

Best of luck to you and your team.

Re: League of Legends

Hey all!

Long time lurker - used to be high 1650 elo for time, got a joob then after much time away became a noob.

Trying to main Jax top, looking for runes / masteries from other pros who play him like damion (the m5 guy) or wings of death - though having trouble. Does anyone know the best way to find these out and point me in right direction?

Ive tried a 21/9/0 build w/ double pen and a 9/21 taking movespeed @70% and CDR/lvl. With MS Quint, AD Red, Arm Yllw, MRplvl blue and sometimes swapping out the MS quint for hp/5 or going AD Quint w/ Arm Pen Reds. I agree most is matchup dependant, though could someone give some guidelines?

Thanks,

Roo

Thank you very much, hopefully we continue improving, I think I get a lot better with each tournament that happens.

I pretty much always go 9/21 with AD reds/quints armor yellows mr/mr scaling blues. Idk tends to work, haven't really tried 21 offense much as I like defense generally

Re: League of Legends

I like how dyrus words it in his Jax guide.

"Go 9/21/0. Why? Idk... ask riot"

i main jax and have played him for 3years now. 21/9 is only good if you know what u are doing and are sure u are a better player than your enemy and can outtrade him at like lvl3 and zone him from there. problem its sucks when u dont get fed. so i would go 9/21 for starters.
runes ad-armor-flat mr-ad quints

your counters are malph, nunu, a good vlad, maybe rumble.

Re: League of Legends

i don't like jungle olaf one bit, its hard to get shurelias in the jungle/enough farm in general, so you are beast for 10 sec every 180 but then don't do much

he just requires too much skill/balls, quite the beast at early jungle dueling and counterganking but if you dont plan on maining olaf jungle i'd stay away

Re: League of Legends

I'd buy Maoki or Shyvana. They are way better than jungle olaf, unless you are a god with Olaf like Nintendude. Olaf doesn't farm very well unless he has blue buff and there isn't enough gold in the jungle to make him a beast. If you don't put the enemy jungle behind by counter jungling you will eventually start to fall behind in usefulness.

Re: League of Legends

I think I want a new jungle, Darius lacks... certain fearsomeness when underleveled, ganks don't go as planned unless you are ganking complete retards.

I'm lackluster at Mundo lately, not sure why.

Maybe I should take up Maokai/Shyvana or something. Or maybe just get ****ing Amumu because he's 1350 ip
