Welcome to the jungle, Where all there is blame. You'll learn to live like an animal, And always mute your team. |
I now know how that feels like never before.
I've played two games so far today. The first one I did really well, having three very successful ganks, and my teammates were winning their lanes, so that helps too. We won that game easily. The second one wasn't so good. I tried a few ganks, but ended up giving the enemy Katarina some free kills. I'll never underestimate her ability to shred down my entire health bar when she has half health again, that's for sure. I'm just thankful that our Xin was getting twice as many kills as Katarina, and we took her down quickly once the team fights started happening. The enemy jungler was a Twitch, so I had some miscalculations when I ulted for a kill, and ended up being outnumbered when the Twitch popped out of ambush. We still won, but I think I did more harm than good that game, haha. |

I guess it's about time I shoot for g5 to get the end of season rewards, but I don't want to get dropped into b1 and then never be able to get out.
|
if I could duo with you, I would ;_;
|
The new spawning animations look so awesome.

And yes, the new jungle spawns look incredible ♥ |
Speaking of ranked and end of the season rewards, I should probably finish my promos... 6 left to go!
Although I almost feel like at this point... is it worth it? Other than potentially getting the free skin (I don't play/own morg though), is it worth it to start next season with the ranking disadvantage that your rank from the previous season gives you? Or would it be better just to stay unranked? |
My goal is just to get to level thirty by the end of the month. Only six more levels to go!
What are these rewards people are talking about? It sounds like a Morgana skin. And what's the disadvantage that Sheerow is talking about? I feel like I'm missing things, very important things. |

So depending on your rank you get different stuff. Bronze: Summoner Icon Silver: Summoner Icon, Banner Trim and a Loading Screen Borde. Gold+: Summoner Icon, Banner Trim, Loading Screen Border, Season Icon appears in Game Invite and Friend Request notifications, Victorious Champion Skin(Which is for Morgana). I have been playing since 2011 and I have no idea about these ranking disadvantages. |
Next year I'm gonna aim for diamond 5. I'm positive I can make it
|
Selly what is your rank now? I assume high Gold, or?
I don't know anything about ranked disadvantages either, perhaps other than being instantly paired against stronger people when the season starts, but anything is worth that morgana skin. So damn pretty, I really can't remember a better skin haha. |
I am gold 3 and I've maintained it for the entire year almost without too much effort. I just need a champion I can stick with, learn that champion and its matchups inside out, and hopefully I'll make it to diamond.

I need to play ranked again. After I lost my silver 3 promos I just lost interest in ranked and was tired of idiots as teammates. I'm inactive now so I should at least do a match to get my silver rewards.
|
Well from what I heard, with the current season if you were ranked season 3 and went to do your promos, you had a significantly lower chance of placing out of your rank from last season. So even if you won all of your promos, but were bronze 3 in season 3, the highest you would place in season 4 would be somewhere in silver maybe, instead of in Gold if you were unranked.
I know placing has to do with MMR, but it also has to do with rank from last season iirc. Also guys, who's excited for the preseason changes? http://www.surrenderat20.net/2014/10/109-pbe-update.html Keep in mind these are all tentative, but I gotta say I'm super excited for the jungle changes, since I end up playing jungle a lot! |
I'm excited about the dragon changes c: Going to make dragon control more important than ever though!
|
You guys saying "I'm only in silver lol" while I'm stuck down here in B1. :'D
tbf though I don't play ranked/lol very often anymore and when I do, I'm pretty bad at the game. So either I yololeg it to silver or just stay down here? idk. ): Also whaaaat everything's getting reworked when it comes to champion splashes. Are they just changing League's art style in general? I really liked some of the old splashes compared to the new ones/or hated both but liked the old one more. :( Anyway the jungling preseason changes are interesting. The 4 second on recall sounds kinda overpowered on baron buff seeing as the team with it would probably be in the lead already? But I guess that helps with winning and closing out games so thank god. No more dancing around the nexus and getting aced by enemy katarinas. :D Anddd dragon. Oh boy. I always forget to call for dragon so I'm gonna have fun competing with the enemy jungler for them. :( |
I'm just gonna get to Gold 5 every season then not play ranked for the rest of the season because of the no decay thing, to get the end of season rewards. I don't think ranked is worth more attention than that from me.
|
I like kogmaw's new splash art. I think shyvanas is hideous now. They've also updated some of the colours and details of some champions in game too, Vayne has more detail, alkali has more detail and different colouring.
on another note, I have finally decided my 5 champions. Gnar, Lee Sin, Azir, Vayne and Lulu. one champion for each lane |
I've pretty much got my best champions for every lane, too:
Riven/Rengar, Xin Zhao/Rengar/Udyr, Talon/Malzahar(Still need to buy Malz), Vayne/Lucian/Jinx (Need all three), Leona/Thresh/Alistar (Need first two). I'm decent with all of them, other than Vayne. I've played Vayne like twice. But I like her. Now I just need to save up LOTS of IP, and buy Runes, Rune Pages, and Champions. I realized, I own a very strange set of champions: Aatrox, Alistar, Annie, Garen, Jax, Kayle, Lee Sin, Master Yi, Nasus, Nidalee, Nunu, Rengar, Riven, Ryze, Shaco, Talon, Teemo, Tristana, Tryndamere, Udyr, Warwick, Wukong, Xin Zhao. Clearly there is a very large trend. *Jungle and Top* |
When I first started playing, I played Wukong, so when he was taken off of the free to play list, I spent ten bucks and got him. Riot was also having their starter pack on sale, so I snagged that up too, and I gained a lot of champions. I don't play most of them, though, but I did learn how to clear camps with Warwick, so I guess it was worth it.
The champions I currently own are Annie, Ashe, Brand, Galio, Garen, Master Yi, Nocturne, Nunu, Ryze, Sivir, Twitch, Warwick, and Wukong. The only ones of those that I know how to play are Galio, Nocturne, Twitch, and Wukong, although I haven't played Wukong in a while. Nocturne is for the jungle, Twitch is my ADC, Wukong I sometimes play top with, and I use Galio for everything else. In a pinch, I can also play Annie, Ashe, Garen, Warwick, and Brand. The roles I probably enjoy the most are Mid and Support, but I mostly just fill in draft play. |
My first champion that I was able to not completely feed to bots was... Diana I think? Either her or Zyra, as both were ftp.
My main champs for each role kinda vary, but as of lately when I've had time to play: ADC: Jinx, Sivir(still learning her) and Vayne who I'm meh at Support: Thresh, Nami, sometimes Lux, Annie, sometimes Janna Mid: Ahri, Leblanc, Lissandra, Orianna Jungle: Zac, Evelynn, Shaco (sometimes-ish), Vi (sometimes-ish) Top: Lissandra, Gnar (kinda), Riven (sometimes) I mostly play Jungle or Support, as I call fill, but I enjoy the two. I think my favorite is probably support because you really have to focus on teamwork throughout all of the game. And since your job is just to protect or initiate fights, it's you who calls a lot of the shots, even if you aren't getting the pentakills. It's why Zac is my favorite jungler right now, as he's so disruptive and good at initiating, and his passive allows you to be focused and not actually die. c: |
They may as well as put a sign on the gate to Silver or Bronze that says: "Welcome to hell. You're never leaving."
I can not win games in Ranked. My friend and I duoed for three games, and only won one because the enemy team afked. We lost the other two because our team argued all game, or afked. |

You're playing with the same type of people that the other team is playing with, and if you're constantly losing, then there's probably something wrong. If you're having a lot of trouble, then stick with champions that can carry hardcore. Champions like Akali, Yasuo, Fiora, Riven, just about any ADC except Ashe, and Rengar can all carry a team (I know these aren't the only ones, but they are the ones on top of my head). Group up in a lane and force a team fight. If you're really fed, then you should be able to take them out with little resistance. Also, this video might help. It's a little on the harsh side, and it may not apply, but oh well, the points still stand (warning: language): |
