dude i think people put too much stock in winrate and not enough in critical thinking
i have a roommate who literally sometimes just picks the champion.gg counter to champs and then goes the exact build with the highest winrate... even if they've played that champ like twice
i mean its usually OK because they aren't bad at the game... its just that it annoys me how brainless this game is sometimes

i think its generally established that people who are good at what they do aren't necessarily smarter, just work harder
i'd be challenger too no problem if I could play for 8+ hours a day. heck I was unemployed for a month and jumped from silver to plat from playing so much

theres still the hardwork aspect of continual improvement. its not just about shutting your brain off and playing for fun.

Not saying you need to be in the top 1% for most physical sports, but between better general health giving you better chances at a higher IQ, and that outsmarting your opponent or understanding your own performance better could give you an edge, I daresay in many a sport the very top is smarter than average. IDK, there's also talent at work, and there's only so much you can do with just training.
i played at a 'challenger level' dota for quite a few years back in high school, and i was i guess the lower end of them. sure lots of them were people i would call smart, but definitely the common theme between most of them were that they played a fuckton of scrims against good players
just my 2c from playing prolly 10,000+ hours of dota between 2006 - 2011

yeah but support is easy mode tbh. u just gotta have better positioning and have a better adc. i got to d4 season 3 by playing janna. not trying to discount your win tho. i was playing singed top and got railed by a zac who was just better than me

Hi, trying saying the same thing in fucking gold.
hi went from silver to diamond between season 3 and season 4 playing 90% support
just pick janna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree that for the first ~9 minutes, support is more important than ADC. That doesn't make it a good, healthy or interesting role. And it doesn't make it one that really has a direct impact on the game.
It 100% has a direct impact on the game.
A bad support will mean botlane (mostly) loses.
A bad support won't roam and help struggling teammates.
A bad support has no vision / objective control.
A good support will deny vision late game and will force a pick. If that's not directly impacting the game I don't know what is.
-Side note: I'm a support main, I'm obviously going to be biased
the thing about support is since there are way less people playing support than other roles, when ur actually good at what u do u def outshine and can even lightweight carry early game
It's always fun when the game is basically you + your adc vs the world for 90% of a game and you win the 2 vs everything. (Our nid's score comes from only being a lil behind in lane and then sponging off trist and myself for scorepoints for the first 30 minutes)
Also I did more damage to champions than our kha'zix.

In post 1256, zoraster wrote:are you arguing you shouldn't have that chat restriction? because you should have
nope, not arguing anything. just thinking about the message riot is trying to send when they chat restrict people. i think its a humorous consequence for being an asshat to make games demonstrably worse for 10 more games.
specifically what did you think i said required a chat restriction? is being annoying in a game where the mute function is so readily available and easy to use a chat restrict/bannable offense? is not using chat or pings at all a chat restrict/bannable offense too?
So you go in a game with 4 players who you need to work with to win and you decide to intentionally piss them off for your own enjoyment? Maybe this is why you got demoted?
i don't start things with ppl lol. if u get irrationally angry when someone all chats "hehe xd" then it sounds like a u problem

sure. that was a bad thing to say
but riots charging $5 for a fucking palette swap golden zac skin

Its the attitude of "im gonna do this even tho I know it pisses people off, BECAUSE I know it pisses people off"
but its an online video game where you play with someone for ~40 minutes and then never see them again? how does it ACTUALLY affect you other than being mildly annoyed by some text you're reading

Makes people think you're uncooperative, reduces team cohesion, tanks morale... are these "small"? Maybe. But they have a bigger impact than you think, especially in what is supposed to be a serious, competitive game mode. And especially when it costs you nothing to not be a dick.
honestly, cooperation has nothing to do with the game unless you're at the .01%. the entire game is really a mix between if you get teammates that are hot or not and if you're improving yourself. /muteall is a godsend when you're tilted. but again, thats a u problem because riot empowers you with the tools to stop any of this. i'm actually mad they stopped automatically adding people to the ignore list when you mute them in game because it was a way i kept track of shitty flamers.
you're seeing only exactly i was sending to people, not what was coming back at me. and its fun. sorry you don't like it Xd, just mute then.

1. That definitely doesn't justify it. At all. Not only is it offensive and wrong to say, it's stupid as hell because no one is forcing you to spend RP on a skin. It's literally cosmetic.
2. It affects my enjoyment of the game. I play to have fun. I have far less fun when people like you are in my game. You deserve to be shut up in the game until you can either (a) figure out why being a jerk should cause you to be punished or (b) accept that even if you don't agree you should still not spew your jerkiness.
- i mean nothing 'justifies' being offensive in a perfect world. but this is league of legends where people who like video games play them with other people. you're acting like i went into a lecture about predatory business practices when i really was just bitching about how shitty zac's skins are Xd
- i play to have fun too. i seriously doubt anyone who plays a video game plays to not have fun.

miserable? nah. miserable at being a human? im fucking great at that
play trndamere and either: win your lane and roam and kill everyone while youre ahead, then splitpush
or
lose your lane, sit top for literally forever and just hammer on turrets until you get an inhib
I would feel too scummy doing that
tbh he isn't that great at this ELO. In bronze sure, but people tend to be able to deal with him here.
disagreed entirely
Last time I played against a tryn i completely crushed him. And most of the times before that tbh. Tryn top doesn't tend to carry in my experience. Tryn jungle on the other hand is a completely different kettle of fucking horrible fish

ok, is the objective of when ur playing league of legends to accumulate lp, or to play a video game?
u will absolutely end up wherever ur skill lies, regardless of what methods you use. grinding games and playing odds is not fun guys, just go play poker if u want a math rush

dodging is really dumb
well, if you systematically use dodging well you'll end up at a higher LP and MMR. So "yes" in the sense that you'll end up where you "belong." But no, that doesn't mean you'll end up the same place as if you didn't dodge.
lets say gaming the system and dodging when u think ur gonna lose with ur team nets you a 5% higher mmr on average
the point i'm trying to make is that for everyone else who don't champ select dodge will be approximately 5% better than you (if they don't also champ dodge) and you will lose 5% more games against people that didn't dodge a game
i mean, if you want to get into gold for rewards or w/e, then power to u cuz thats actually a tangible benefit, but i really think you should focus on your csing, game sense, communication, lane control because that would

actually
make you 5% better
Some people win more games through being better than their opponents with mechanical skill. Some through map awareness. Some through communication. Why can't champion select and dodging be part of that equation too? If I can avoid the worst matchups that's PART of the skill of ranking up. The ONLY thing that matters for ranked in the end is your ability to win games. If I win more games by dodging games I believe I have a 33% or less chance of winning from champ select, I've increased my ability to win regardless of other factors like mechanical skill.
As for csing and what not, I don't see why this is mutually exclusive to that.
its not really a skill
if winning is the only thing that matters to u then ur on the right track. i just think queue dodging subverts what a game is meant to be about. u don't get better at league of legends by queue dodging.

i'm not talking about cheating, i'm talking about duo/multiple queuing. i don't like it either for the same reasons i don't like queue dodging. it subverts the spirit of the game
