League of Legends - Megathread
Sleven:
I've been lvl 30 in half a year. Don't have the nerves really to enter ranked.. and don't have any reason to do so atm anyway so... yeah well. What I'm looking for is this champ that will carry his team even though they are idiots. I need something fool-proof.
Placid:
the way i see it is once you're out of your placements playing ranked is basically a way to get better. yes, you could complain about everyone on your team, but alternatively you could get good enough to carry them. i had the same mentality you guys did until i decided yolo and binge-ranked for like a month or something and went from silver 4 to gold 3. i honestly think if you're not playing ranked and you're level 30, you're not getting better because nobody takes normals seriously and how the hell are you supposed to improve if you're not playing against people that are your level
just my 2 cents tho

going fizz or akali and snowballing all over the dribbling faces of mouthbreathers doesnt really strike me as a constructive use of time, considering that you're never going to actually go 30/1/10 on fizz in a game with people who know what they're doing.
i mean i like playing support, adc, and jungle. but the only way I'm going to advance is to play a hyper carry and do 99% of the work in 50% of the time. it doesnt really impress anybody worth impressing really, i mean would anyone think im a good player because i single-handedly won a game as yasuo at 900 elo?
i mean it's ridiculous, and the fact that you have to learn to play a completely different and stuffty game in order to get to the part where it actually gets fun doesn't seem like it's even worth the time.

i never said you have to play a hypercarry because you seriously don't.
this is the reason i got to gold.
you can carry your team from the jungle, support is hard mode but whatever, all other lanes you can obviously carry from. and i'm not saying you should play ranked to impress the people you're playing ranked with / your friends / however you're taking what i'm saying. i'm saying you should play ranked to improve your playing because despite what i've heard a lot of people say, normals don't mean stuff and people don't care what they do. in ranked at least you have "something to lose" and once you get out of bronze/silver you'll realize that. gold isn't much better but at least people take it somewhat seriously.
