hi, I play league

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Lost faith in ranked system. Won 7 in a row at 0 points in silver 2, promoted to silver 1, lose 2 in a row - demoted back to silver 2 at 50 points, leaving me needing another 5 wins to be promoted again. 2 untimely losses to nullify 5 wins... -_-

Why when promoted do you enter the next division at 0 points if simultaneously you can lose 50 points for being demoted?

I believe Yegg said they agree the loses after getting promoted and other situations were too harsh and were lowers how much was needed for demotions and such.

It's gonna be 70 points and a longer grace period.

I mean, it's totally reliable. It's just making a choice to use it for that or not. It's got the lowest mana cost of all of his spells and it doesn't go up with ranks either. I usually only toss it if I can get more than one soul out of it either way.

 

[Steam]

even if you get screwed over and end up in a situation like that, if your hidden elo is high enough you can be promoted multiple divisions. I kept losing promotion series to gold 2-3 and then winning multiple games in a row to get back to the series, so when I finally got to gold and won the gold V promotion series, I got bumped straight to gold III :o

 

[PhantomX]

New smashboards is weird.

 

[Vyke]

Make sure you change the skin to Ruby. It's slightly less of an eye sore in that you can distinguish borders.

 

[Espy Rose]

I'd use the blue one because it's the best looking, but I like red and black too much.

 

[Leacero]

This is going to take some time getting used to.

 

[Vyke]

My only real qualm with the new layout is I dunno how to find Watched Threads that have no new posts.

 

[Boofy!]

^ after you go to watched threads there's something that says "This is a list of the 40 most recently-updated threads with unread replies that you are watching. There may be more to view."

 

[Mogwai]

My Xin winrate is barely above 50%, my Karma winrate is over 70%.

Wut do?

 

[JTB]

Does anyone have pbe access they are willing to share with me?

 

[Espy Rose]

I've never played more than 2 Ranked games in a row, and just did 4. My head hurts from this crap.

Look at his TF game details.

I'm so...
...How the **** did we win that one?

In any case, I quit life. That game proves that there is no justice in this world.

PS: AP Poppy mid is great.

WAT

How do you die 21 times as TF.

Eighty Three minions in a 43 minute game what even.

He should have built tanky and just walked around stunning people every 4 seconds in teamfights.

 

[Espy Rose]

He was trolling super hard.
Or he was incredibly sincere but very bad.

He kept walking into mid and top to gank, and just kept handing Lee Sin, Riven, and Lux kills or something of that sort. The ganks themselves were terrible. We'd never be in position, and he'd just walk up to them and start auto attacking, even if he was surrounded by minions or we knew that Lee was in the area. He would chase single targets down way past their turrets too. He would ult under their turrets with no regard for the enemy's positioning and let them kill him. He'd also pop Twin Shadows as far away from the enemies as possible so that they'd never get touched by them.

Only reason we won is because our Graves was super big, I could blow up either carry in the game, Riven would chase me forever (barrier saved me three times, and I managed to get away from her with <100HP each time), and because we told TF to just split push all game since he had teleports.

He was dead for 11 minutes. He was dead for 25% of that damn game.
I don't want to touch ranked ever again.

 

[Player-3]

My Xin winrate is barely above 50%, my Karma winrate is over 70%.

Wut do?

deal with karma missing % hp heal being stronk af when it's extremely easy to itemize a ton of mana regen and CDR cap for such little gold

I want to see threads that have no new replies or unread posts so I can navigate to them TO POST.

I still need to find out how to change my pass there to somethign more share-able, and I don't think it is actually tied to any of my active email adresses

 

[ShroudedOne]

I don't believe that Vi nerfs are justified...but I'm not diamond, so I dunno. Her winrate isn't that impressive, and I don't see her often at all, nor do I hear people whine about her. So what's the deal?

if you click the link at the end of the sentence, you would have YOUR ANSWER. "There may be more to view"

you literally can't peel her from your AD and she can build super tanky and still 3-4shot your carry

 

[Zano]

Vi jungle is pretty strong, she needs the nerfs. Same with xin, as sad as it makes me.

To be fair if he was dying that much, he was probably giving you guys more gold in the long run by resetting the enemy death gold.

 

[Espy Rose]

That's true, but it was also stupid hard to kill anyone on their team because they got such a big lead from his early deaths that we couldn't particularly kill them. Him giving Lux the early kills shut down my ability to CS for most of the laning phase, so I couldn't even blow up Ezreal or Lux until 30 minutes in or so when I finally managed to grab a DFG. Our Graves was the only one who managed kills, and some of the teamfights would last upward to one minute.

I mean, yeah, it's cool that he'd do that, but I'd much rather have had a TF who...you know...actually played the game right.

 

[Geoberos]

Did they ever waste long CD or ults on that TF? Somewhat useful for that.

Otherwise a 4v5 with gold disadvantage. A Poppy and a hyper carry is all that's needed.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Wowsa, even I would rage a bit if TF died that much. O_o.

Also I feel like Blade of the Ruined King is getting thr Athene's treatment, over buffing it so people use it, then later only for them to nerf it down a lot.

 

[Steam]

Vi is stupid. snowballs hard and snowballs fast with some of the best ganking in the game pre and post 6. as long as she's not shut down she'll dominate teamfights. so happy for nerfs.

even more happy for garen and darius nerfs though.

 

[Shaya]

Talking about twisted fate though, the patented jiji tankfate is basically the most fun I've had in this game since forever.
Frozen Mallet + Shiv core.

 

[Asdioh]

I bought Kennen recently and he's a ton of fun. I can understand why you don't see him much anymore though... he feels pretty helpless against teams that have a lot of beefy champs, which is almost every team these days. Is Rylais+Liandry's ever a good option on him, or does he not make good use of liandrys?

 

[JTB]

speaking of liandrys

http://www.reignofgaming.net/blogs/...r/23231-liandrys-torment-is-incredibly-strong

 

[Zano]

ouch.

Also, I think rammus + mobilty boots homeguard is the most fun I've ever done in this game.

 

[adumbrodeus]

Yea I've seen it, also morelonomicon is apparently the biggest damage spike reletive to the gold spent which makes it a great rush item.

 

[BSL]

I'd use the blue one because it's the best looking, but I like red and black too much.

Same. Also I don't like the brightness of the blue one. I'm used to the dark color scheme on SWF.

WHY ARE YOU WEARING MY PEOPLE

too good.

 

[Asdioh]

Quinn is super fun. I will definitely buy her and play her top lane, maybe AD carry. She can also be support too, with a 1.5 sec aoe blind, targeted slow, and aoe scouting ability. Not that I would play her as that, but I'm sure people will try.
Her passive's damage seems stupid strong at the moment.

 

[Player-3]

finally :D

 

[BSL]

congrats :D
