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.

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

I like how dyrus words it in his Jax guide.

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

runes ad-armor-flat mr-ad quints

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

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

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.

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

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

Jungle Amumu so fun~!~!~!~!

First 4 kills of the game, I got no assists for, despite me coming in there and landing bandage and doing ~50-70% damage and having to run. Then the laner gets the kill, I guess after 15 seconds? Guess it doesn't matter, long as lane gets the kill.

I've played both sides of the matchup and it certainly feels like olaf counters jax. He outharasses, outtrades and out-dps's you.

That being said I saw Wings play jax vs olaf and own so I guess it's just a skill based matchup. At least Jax can't faceroll Olaf like he can a lot of other bruisers.

cruzer AMA? ^^

What do you think is your team's biggest leak? What do you think makes teams like TSM so much more dominant than their competitors?

What was your biggest breakthrough/"A-HA" moment as an individual player that really amped up your game level?
