    Default League of Legends LXVI: Hosted by Jhin_In_Tonic and Starring Aurelion LOL

    League of Legends LXVI: Hosted by Jhin_In_Tonic and Starring Aurelion LOL


    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.

    GUIDES & CHAMPION OVERVIEWS

    Regarding the skill differences, I think there's a difference between mistakes and stupid choices. Anyone can make a mistake, or a bad call, but there's that special kind of stupidity you can get in Bronze where someone keeps going in again and again. It didn't work the last 3 times you tried, why do you think you'll survive the dive this time? sort of stupidity.

    Yep. The platinum player may dive with more mechanical skill and may have more of an effect due to better knowledge of timing / positioning / enemy vulnerabilities / etc, but they'll be just as dead at the end, and often equally disinclined to learn.

    I'd say many Bronze players are actually MORE cautious, because they're not used to carry games on their own, and thus may be more hesitant to go full hero mode into a team.

    I know a lot of my deaths against Plat+ opponents come from overestimating my own ability compared to the opposition: I assume I can carry hard like I can in many silver-gold games, and realize I should have accounted for opponents who are equal or better players than I.

    I've never played ranked but regularly play with a group that ranges silver to platinum. I can say everyone I play with does it. But the play player maybe a little less.

    I'm trying to work on not jumping in stupidly. That and mini-map awareness are my current problems.

    I've run into a string of Gold/Plat level Lucian players that win lane really hard, but end up throwing the game because they constantly dash in 1v4 and expect to outplay and kill everyone. Basically the whole Vaynespotting meme, except with a more in meta champion.

    Should we start a list of Clubs and who is owner of each in the OP going forward?

    ALL HAIL THE GREAT RAK!!

    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.

    So I suspect this patch may have also upped the difficulty of earning an S.

    What makes me say this? A 23:17 minute surrender by the enemy team in the face of us knocking at their Nexus towers while I was 9/0/10 Sejuani on a team with only 26 kills (a 73% participation rate).

    What did it give me? A measly A. What gives, Mastery System?

    Ingredients

    2oz Djinn
    5oz Water
    1 Lime Wedge


    Instructions

    Pour Djinn and tonic water into a glass filled with ice cubes. Stir well. Garnish with lime wedge. Serve.

    Maybe Riot now only gives S ranks to support (mains) to encourage supporting more.

    Is Hextech Annie going to be one of those skins that are only acquirable through the new Hextech Crafting System, or will it actually be purchasable?

    I saw a 3 S's in one game. No I didn't get any of them.

    On the other hand I've had 3 disconnects in my last 5 games, one of them me. Each time it takes about 5-8 minutes for a reconnect and by then an almost insurmountable lead has been gained by the enemy team.

    Now LoL has always had the occasional dc here and there. So am I just getting really unlucky, or are you guys also noticing a bunch of dc's in your games as well?

    Am I correct in saying that mastery levels on champions (at least (maybe 4 and) 5) gets you hex tech crafting stuff?

    If so, I am very mad because last weak I got my mastery on at least three champions.

    ON DCs:
    Last week (Maybe 2 weeks ago?) I got at least one dc per ranked game (that was always on my team). They tended to come back, but only after 10-ish minutes. I haven't been getting as many recently.

    They've said she's only craftable. Technically, since you can purchase the crafting keys and crates, she **can** be purchased, but that's not the intention. I think if you actually price everything out in RP she's the most expensive skin.

    Not connected at all in that way. You get a chest for a champion if you (or someone in your premade group) gets any kind of S rank in a game, but your overall champion mastery score doesn't have anything to do with it. The assumption is having more games on a champion would improve your chances of a high ranking, though.

    If it makes you feel better, I usually put off Ranked until the very end of the season.

    The best strategy. "Oh what, the season ends in four days? Time to see if we can get to <insert desired rank here>!" Then play like twenty-odd games before Tuesday.

    Thanks to the new queue, this time around I've actually gotten a head start. Still haven't played ranked in a few weeks, but really ahead of the game this time around by being placed in February.

    I literally played my 10 placements the last possible day in the last two seasons. I gave myself an extra two days in S3 because I was pretty sure I wouldn't place Gold and wanted to be able to play enough games to get the skin.

    I don't think it has much to do with CS - I went 12/0 as Nasus with 247 CS last game and only got an A.
