I definitely want a champion that is just a magical rock of some sort that moves around like that now.

It would freak me out if I saw that coming mid lane against me.

Ok for interests sake, is getting Rabadon's, Rylais and Sorc Boots by the 20-25 min mark considered decent?
I usually have those around then.
I'm getting noticeably better at last hitting now that I can play at 60 fps or more.
Gone are the days of laning at 20fps and team fighting at 10!

Are you rushing those items? If so what's your average CS by 20 minutes?
Let's see rylai (3150) + rabadon (3600) + sorc boots (1100) = 7850, while my build of sorc boots(1100) + 2 drings (950) + Will(2100) + ryali (3150) = 7300. When I'm doing well on Ahri (200~ cs by 20 minutes a few kills and dragon control), I ideally see myself having 2 d-rings, rylais and wota by 20 minutes. So, if you're completing all that by 20 minutes, then you're better then me when I'm playing exceptionally well.

Here's more information on gold (with optimal CS you should make 7.1k by 20 minutes, that's not including dragon + champion kills).

I'm starting to realize that I play this game much better when I have music on and I just zone out kinda like how I play competitive fighters. It's like falling into a zone where your brain only calculates what's happening within the game and blocks everything else out. Mainly when I'm jungling though. It's like.
Anyone to gank? Clear camps.
Camps cleared? Anyone to gank? Yes, gank. No, steal enemy camp.
Enemy camp already cleared? Warn top/bot for incoming gank. Countergank or invade.
Does top have a ward? No. Ward for him. Does mid have a ward? Yell at him. Does bot have a ward? No. Useless bot is useless.
Farm more and more and more.

I know that one. I swear my game used to be fine, but lately, mostly when on skype, it can get super laggy. ;_;

I've never played at more than 27 fps or so =(

After two patches ago, I went from 60fps 100% of the time to anywhere from 20-40 that fluctuates all match.

its probably due to the fact that riot codes stuff like 3 year olds and is fails to completely bug test patches on release for performance issues

I've always listened to music while loling, but after reading a this TL article, I switched to just instrumental music. Dunno if it actually helps, though.

I'm actually a neuroscience student, and I'm writing a term paper this semester on Music and Language. Long story short is that studies show music will often improve mood in the workplace, but has little effect on overall performance.
Longer story begins here: I suspect this is because other findings show music of any type can also be largely distracting. As for the TL article, they didn't actually cite any sources for much of anything, let alone their claims on music. It seems logical, but that's certainly no reason for me to take them at their word. If that were true you would be more negatively affected if you were a trained musician because of the relationship between music and language. Additionally, native speakers of Chinese and other tonal languages may find themselves more distracted because their language uses the melodic shape of the word said to convey meaning beyond what English does. This is all speculation, but i'm not convinced the comment on TL wasn't merely based on speculation as well. :D I personally don't know why you would need music to "zone out" and focus on the game. Studies also show the more complex the task, the more likely that music will be a strong distracting factor. However, in my research, I found an interesting study that suggested that music affects introverts and extroverts differently. That extroverts are much less likely to to have the negative distracting problems with music than introverts are. If I were to want to maximize performance, I wouldn't play any music and avoid all sounds in general. However, just for fun, it likely won't make a big difference either way.
Now to actually work on said paper some more.

The effect is largely mitigated by the distracting effect of music. That's what studies have found. I'm not here to tell people what they thinks works for them doesn't. Just saying that if it does, they are an exception to what research studies have been reporting.

Hii
Yeah I realized that around mid February my frame rate was terrible.
Now when I go into team fights it lags and I can hardly see anything.

Just went 2/1/8 Jungle Yi. Went some dumb build, was gonna go AD later on but I went ninja tabi -> deathcap -> frozen heart. Their team surrendered before I got to put my FH in action. Ended up tanking their team's **** while my teammates killed everyone, since we didn't exactly have a tank. It was pretty funny. Yi is probably my favorite jungler, everyone else I've tried is pretty boring/awkward but Yi is fast and fun.
oh and I had most damage done by far, I assume because of alpha strike shenanigans. Also had most damage taken on my team, even more than our tryn, and almost as much as the other team's tryn. Who died a lot.

Yes I pretty much always rush those items unless I have another good AP on our team in which case I swap Rylais for WoTA.
Double WoTA is too good sometimes.

Well what's your average CS by 20 minutes, and what characters do you primarily play?

Junglers typically do a lot of damage because you have to kill the jungle creeps from full health to zero, while lanes tend to only last hit for a while.

It's usually around the 200 mark, more often just under.
I pretty much only play Brand,Ashe and Xerath.
I only ever do that well with Brand or Ashe though.
I also usually have 2-3 kills by then and failing that 5-7 assists.

i stopped listening to music so i can make decisions better lol
especially when im jungling ><
1500 is when people start to not suck at the game
ive played with a lot of 1500s in ranked 5s that were easily competent and beat 2k+ players in lane
although playing solo q at 1500 and 2k is extremely different

i closed the tab when i saw who occupied the last spot on the list.
Sad day when Heimer is not lowest. Don't care about Swain, but my god.

After Cass and Ryze that list falls apart.
Also play Ryze because he's ridiculous and easy.
