League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
Welcome! You can sign up for League of Legends here. It's a free MOBA based on Defense of the Ancients.
If it sounds like we're speaking a foreign language in here, the glossary of LoL terms can help you with that.
We maintain lists of players, sorted by server. If you are not on these lists and would like to be, please post in the thread with the following information in bold: Server (if you don't know it, it's likely the region you're in, but it's worth checking anyway), your Forum Name, and your Summoner Name. It's also a good idea to go ahead and send me a PM with such information to ensure I see it.
If no reply's been made about adding you after a day or two, first check the lists to see if you've been added. If not, feel free to post again or PM me. Any incorrectly formatted posts may be overlooked.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
Let's just leave it, see how long it lasts.
Also, general question for the thread. I generally play AD carries that are pretty safe or at least mobile: Cait and Trist are probably my two best. I've recently been trying to learn Twitch and getting my butt kicked. I understand in theory that if I can farm well and get to a point where I'm strong, I have the ability to sneak around and ambush people, but I feel like I'm not understanding how to do his aggression right. As best I understand my own problems, they are
1. I don't know how to do good trades in lane. I feel like if I stealth up for a good opener, I'm vulnerable to all the enemy ADC skills and everything the support can throw at me. But if I save my stealth to get out, my trades are just weaker than most other ADs due to short range and less burst.
2. I feel like I'm doing something wrong in my midgame positioning. I've watched several pro games where somebody with just a BoRK stealthed on top of someone and then opened up with everything for a kill. I try to do the same thing and end up doing maybe 2/3 of someone's hp before they get away, which often results in me getting killed a bit later because I've used all my stuff but didn't get the kill that would allow the team to push for an advantage.
Basically, I have an understanding that the champ rewards aggressive plays, but I'm doing something wrong in making them and I'm not sure what.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
I ran into what I call the 'Law of Declared Smurfs' last night.
That is, if anybody (at ANY rank or level) in pre-game chat declares themselves to be a smurf, it is 100% guaranteed that they will suck.
Coupled nicely with the guy that I let support because he said he 'mained support', and at the end of the game looked him up, and he has a 31% win rate on Thresh.
I'm not even kidding - 31% win rate on Thresh. How is that even possible?Last edited by Olinser; 2014-06-02 at 11:48 AM.

I use the same name in every game I ever play or forum I join (except the pretender on PSN that forced me to be RealOlinser). If you see an Olinser in a game or on a website, there's a high chance it's me, feel free to shoot me a message.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
I'm only a mediocre Twitch player, but he's one of my favored ADCs along with Sivir, so here's the advice I can give.
1. Generally I initiate small trades in lane with only a Venom Cask into Autos into an Expunge when they retreat out of auto-range. You can either initiate this on your own if you feel like you have sufficiently good positioning, or if your support lands something like a Death Sentence or Howling Gale or Aqua Prison in lane. Stealth is something I generally save for a planned all-in, like an approaching jungler gank or Sona Ult or Thresh/Leona/Ali jumping directly into their face (after previously indicating they wish to do so).
2. I don't know how good your micro is, but something like this might just fall down to better execution. If the enemy is trying to run away then you really need to be able to have good orbwalking to consistently put yourself ahead of their escape while still outputting damage. Standing still and relying just on sheer burst is going to lose you the kill unless you're /really/ far ahead. I also generally don't use Twitch Ult for solo-ambushes unless I desperately need the range to close out the kill. I feel like Rat-a-tat-tat is always worth holding on to just for the teamfight power it gives you.
@^: Thresh can stomp soloqueue off of Death Sentence alone, but a lot of his more intricate play (especially involving the lantern) that makes him so powerful requires communication or very good instincts on the part of the Thresh and his teammates. Especially with the nerfs to his damage and tankiness, Thresh is significantly less effective in soloqueue than teamplay, doubly so if you can't Death Sentences.
He's one of those champions who's "OP" because he sees a lot of pro play and because we've all been against that Thresh who landed every hook and solo-carried his game, but he has a much higher skill floor than Leona or Braum and a bunch of use cases that aren't immediately obvious to those in lower brackets.Last edited by Ashen Lilies; 2014-06-02 at 11:57 AM.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
My problem is I had a string of losses in my placements and got put in bronze 3. Had a string of wins that got me to 90lp, then another string of 5 losses that saw me demoted to bronze 4. Just finished getting BACK to bronze 3.
I really wish people would stop trying to baron with all 5 of the enemy team up and all mia.Chrono Crusade avi by Ceika.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
I suspect the comment is aimed at my reordering of the title? The original suggestion was "Ice Cream, Lorn, and Stamps," which works alphabetically but seems to bury the punchline.
It's kind of like how the original "Loss and Ire" title votes were for "A Song of Ire and Flame" instead.
But yeah, everyone hates ranked. It's why I put off my provisional matches as long as possible.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
Ah, I'd missed that.
Also, on the subject of ranked; are the summoner icon/skin/etc. rewards rewarded for every season of ranked?
I've been trying to decide if I should try it yet(I do, admittedly, need a few runes, one red, yellow, and three quintessences[I have one empty slot, but my current two are tier 1 ones], but I can't imagine that they would make too much of an impact)Last edited by Togath; 2014-06-02 at 02:33 PM.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
If you're vulnerable to everything from both the ADC and support, you're either positioning flatout wrong or not waiting on your support to initiate the level of aggression you're trying to do. The first is solved by stop doing that; the second, by learning when your support wants to do that level of aggression and following his lead better.
The good twitches I've seen tended to avoid trades, and go for all-ins at strategic moments, where Twitch's burst is actually higher than most ADCs, due to how Expunge works with his kit(and that all his burst is tied up in that one skill).
#assassinproblems
The challenge with watching LCS-level play is that you gotta realize, not only do they "know their burst", but they also farm better than you. Completing BoRK 2 minutes earlier opens up kill opportunities that I'm just not capable of taking because I'd be sitting on Cutlass+2dagger.
He actually doesn't reward generally aggressive play like...Caitlyn would. He rewards *TIMED* aggression very well, though. As in, its less about how frequently you trade and more about the fact that they're probably dead or backing every time you do find a good trade opportunity.Avatar by Assassin89

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
Also the fact that Twitch relies rather heavily on having his team peel for him - which may be more or less likely depending on your ELO bracket.
Twitch is EXTREMELY vulnerable to bruisers with a gap closer - his team has to be smart and quick enough to keep them off him.Last edited by Olinser; 2014-06-02 at 02:53 PM.

I use the same name in every game I ever play or forum I join (except the pretender on PSN that forced me to be RealOlinser). If you see an Olinser in a game or on a website, there's a high chance it's me, feel free to shoot me a message.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
No kidding. There is nothing more frustrating then hearing someone say, 'I main blank and can't do any other role'. I mean I suck at ADC, but I can still play it. Even win games if my team doesn't need me to carry. And that's only one single role.
I finally, finally made it to Silver 5. It's really a matter of luck if you'll get a team that is actually decent or not.Spoiler: I'm a writer!Spoiler: Check out my fanfiction[URL="https://www.fanfiction.net/u/7493788/Forum-Explorer"here[/URL]

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
If I was around, I would have voted for it. It took a couple read-throughs to understand it, but I like it.
P.S. The epic downfall of Nukeduck and Mithy are the stuff of Shakespearean tragedies. It's really quite astonishing how many different ways they can fail. On the flip side, maybe we'll see Alex Ich mid again.

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
Its not great, although probably better now that Q has longer range on it. Doesn't lane well and doesn't transition into a thing that's just not currently favored late-game. As an AP DPS, he's basically a longer-ranged Kayle with almost none of her utility.
Granted, he's *REALLY* fun with Athene's and some CDR and some decent hard-hitting Rs, but I don't think its reasonable to get that up and running on him.Avatar by Assassin89

Re: League of Legends LIX: Ice Cream, Stamps, and Lorn
I didn't post about it in the previous thread, but I counted myself as voting for it as well. I liked the wordplay.
This is what I did, actually--didn't play Ranked until last season just because none of my in-person friends played. When they hit 30 and started doing Ranked so did I.
