How do you get blue team bot lane to take golems without either player taking much damage? How far away can you kite before the golems reset?

They won't reset. They'll re-aggro your teammate and you can swap aggro that way.

Start by having your AD hit it first and just kite it back until it aggros onto the support. Then he runs away while your AD hits it, etc.

I know probably my biggest fault is that I give up too much.

I'm not blind to where my faults are. I just know my Elo doesn't reflect my skill, and that frustrates me.

Here's the things I need to work on the most, in no particular order:
1. I need to learn to get out of the jungle more and gank more frequently.
2. I need to learn alternative builds for games that aren't going the way I like them to.
3. I need to get better last hitting on bot lane with vayne and sivir.
4. I need to get WAY better at last hitting under tower.
5. I need to get better at invading when jungling.
6. I need to be more aware of who wins matchups when I'm invading, so I know when I should fight.
7. I need to learn my matchups at mid with Ahri and Xerath.
8. I need to get WAY better at not getting frustrated when bad kids ruin games.
9. I need to learn a few new champs like skarner, taric, and maybe sion.

I probably lost a lot of viewers after my first game with singed haha

I must admit, I was one.

i tried the fullscreen refresh thing, and it still didnt help.

turns out i wasnt waiting long enough for the screen to refresh before, though. it isn't a frozen image. it's just a REALLY slow refresh rate. like 20sec/frame

 

[tarmacker]

I'll duo queue with you tomorrow Dastrn, but I'm bad at the game and don't mind tanking ELO if we lose a bunch. In game name "CrushThemAll".

Sounds good bro.

Hey now! At BEST it's 10 mins, and maybe 5 of that is actual criticism. The rest is playful ribbing/*******ry (which does get annoying for some people).

Dastrn going for that opportunistic ELO

Here is an example:

I **** up with Corki by getting caught in a team fight despite the fact that every other lane lost

for like half an hour you constantly talk about how I ****ed up when I got the point like 3 minutes into your needling and being annoying, yet 30 minutes later you keep ****ing talking. I get it, im not a ****ing **** head

==

not gunna lie, you do it prettttttttty often, not just to me. I've seen some SWEETHEARTS of loL get annoyed by your needling too

SWEETHEARTS

I never thought I'd see s2j say this word.

 

[Mogwai]

he was definitely talking about me because I'm so cheerful and friendly!

 

[PhantomX]

Yeah, but you're usually too drunk to get mad, gizmo.

 

[JTB]

lol

guy on my team asks what he are playing and i say ill fill in the gaps, then calls me awful because that means im only mediocre at every role

go top, double nasus cs, get 3 levels on him, carry game

feels good man

 

[PhantomX]

Are the servers lagging atm?

 

[Dastrn]

jpak the stream is super choppy for me

Anyone else having issues with it?

 

[BSL]

i have issues. sound is fine, but the image only refreshes every 20 seconds or so

THOUGHTS ON JAX REWORK

go

 

[Vyke]

Reliable stun, nerfed passive (?)

need numbers, not demonstration of beating on people like usual

Also is NintendudeX on league the same as the smasher?

 

[JTB]

no, ive asked before lol

 

[HondaFoo]

Sounds good bro.

I can duo with you as well, add Rafael Nadal

 

[Wave⁂]

Jax is stronger early game IMO with the new passive.

 

[KevinM]

Viktors laning phase seems pretty strong but the people I was playing with weren't good so this post is basically a +1 >_>

 

[Ignatius]

I feel like Viktor peaks at level 1.

 

[Wave⁂]

holy **** last hitting is so hard when you have Sona who refuses not to push with autoattacks and Q

 

[PhantomX]

New Jax seems like he's gonna be hella silly. Relentless Assault as passive from level 1 is great for jungle and for fighting in lane early, especially coupled with counterstrike. Seems like he is going to demolish auto attackers, but since he doesn't get all the free health or any mr from his ult anymore, he'll be more susceptible to burst.

 

[Vyke]

He also doesn't get the free health from his passive anymore, apparently.

 

[PhantomX]

Yeah, when I said he doesn't get free health from ult I meant from his old passive.

Seems he's just balls to the wall offense/assassin who can get owned by burst.

 

[Rappster]

hi guys. ten games in, i'm at 1083 elo, and i probably deserve to be there.
what do i do next?

 

[L__]

play for fun

 

[KevinM]

I feel like Viktor peaks at level 1.

I miss you too

 

[adumbrodeus]

hi guys. ten games in, i'm at 1083 elo, and i probably deserve to be there.

Figure out what you need to improve to deserve better.




Edit: Could anyone critique my support play? Here's a game I'd appreciate being critiqued. Mercilessly.

 

[john!]

the next champion appears to be sejuani, who has been in the words for a long, long time (i saw a youtube video almost a year ago i think which had stuff about her, i think there were "sejuani files" in the game since before then)

???

my guess is that no start date was entered, so it set the date value to default at 0, and the code behind the website probably used one of the programming languages where the start date (zero value) is january 1, 1970...

dude, if you think you're stuck in ELO hell, why are you still solo-queing? duo-queue yourself untill you get out of hell. then retry your solo-queue.

duo queue is weak sauce.

i'll raise someone's elo for half dphat's rates, COME AT ME BRO, IT'S A FREE MARKET

and i cold duo a few with you dastrn

I can duo with you as well, add Rafael Nadal

YOU!!!

 

[Shaya]

The thing is though, that both of your prices are terrible in comparison to Dekar.

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

I just played a game where our Riven walked up and stood at the enemy turret and gave the other team free kills.

What do I do?

 

[DanGR]

I'll pay someone $2 to win me 2 games to get me to plat.
