Jesus this thread talk reminds me of playing on a bronze account.

Because fighting about a game on another game's website totally makes you look cool.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I'm Plat II on EUNE, was Diamond V in S3. Looking for someone to play :)

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

come euw and you have a deal

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

come to NA and you have a deal

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Sadly in a lot of cases thats true. Something tells me he's never laned Mundo vs Shyvana though lol.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I love top laners, especially those Renek vs Malph lanes or something tanky where its nothing but a wet noodle fight lmfao


"No I'm gonna tickle you to death"
"No I'M gonna tickle you to death more!"

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Also Jesse can you plz fix the OP lol. It's so annoying to look at when looking at player names.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

oh yeah i suppose im TGS Kobra on euw now

"serious" names and shit

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

i'm lazy someone else do it

also gold 1 promos

doing nothing but slamming bad gold players with shit mechanics

back to plat soon

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

ok

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Ok, wow I tried out Leona. She's so op it's dumb. My first attempt and yet I made my team just destroy in a teamfight. We were running from fiddle ult and the enemies were all bunched up. I ulted them then piled on all my other abilities and we just destroyed them. And of course, she's good during the laning phase, too. Not very good of opponents but still.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Looking for League of Legends friends

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

This. I was plat 1 when I first ever played Leona and still did so well. Really op champ

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I'll edit OP

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

lol I'm not op enough with mundo :(



ohhh a win streak. getting decent with Leona

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Spreadsheet

Until Jesse logs in and edits the OP, this is the current spreadsheet. I took info from the old chart unless I was aware of any changes to name/rank/server. If there are any errors please let me know via PM.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

^ awesome work, to add to it: i pretty much just play support with my team or a premade, otherwise when im playing by myself i do top

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

+1 priest holy shit nice work man

Edit: change me to support and adc plz

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

***** even knows my new name :')

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

gg huge losing streak got paired up with some kid that was boosted to diamond 3 games in a row back to 0lp.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Can someone teach me Leona. Ive literally only won 1 game out of 15 with her. (Including ranked/normal) I know I could play better But I know it can't entirely be me my other supports do very well. whenever I pick Leona for some reason the team has no idea what they are doing...
Do I need to switch up my runes? Or invest in something else this is what I currently use:




My ranked stats suck besides Cait and Annie ughhh. =/

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Add me, I play Leona all the time.
IGN: Wait Im Lagging



EDIT: Runes are fine, im against GP10 though.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

All this win lane lose game LOL. Worst luck NA. Also I hear I can demote from D5 to P1 again??? What is that shit

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

From what Jesse told me, its if you loose 10 games in a row at 0 lp ?

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

get armor yellows and reds, mr / mr over time blues
quints can be armor or health on leona

push and get advantage to level 3 > go wild on enemy adc > enjoy lost summoners / first blood

it might also be that your adc is retarded given silver -- i dont know how well you play so i cant judge that but try queuing with some plats or higher (which all i play with and im level 25 on euw lmfao) and see if you can achieve some sort of synergy

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I've lost 7 in a row. Won lane in 4 of them... I don't even know what I have to do to win a game anymore lmfao. I'm in the elo where my entire team is D5 0lp and no one gives a fuck. They are all D3 and P1 and they are trying their hardest. Matchmaking op

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Your MMR has to be approximately one tier lower than where you are getting demoted from (so I've heard). If you have Low P4 or P5 MMR but you are in Diamond V, you will get demoted.

Again, this could be wrong - with this new Elo system everyone has been theory crafting.

Xiz, CBR - updated your preferences.


this is my Leo page at the moment - alternatively you can switch out one health quint for an armor quint

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Alright Ill add you when I get back on. My Ign is : Bella
Should I get another Health quint then to replace gold?

As far as starting items I go Dorans/1x Health pot, sometimes I'll do Relic Shield. I always get Ancient Coin 2nd time back though.

Also Silver ADC's/Junglers are the worst ... I initiate and they stand back no going ham and I just die. I probably should target before I ult and strike/stun.
I'm not a bad player , I can keep up/win lane vs high plat. Ive had many compliments on my thresh from Diamond players.


OH...
And I wanted to ask what kind of runes should I run on Gragas?

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

MPEN reds/armor yellows/flat mr blues/ap quints

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

OH that's you that was messaging me earlier when I was in game. I was like... hmmm who is this LOL

Also my Leona runes +20 ap +13 armor +24 magic resist at level 18. 2 lazy to make support rune page

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

LOL you jerk! :(
And AP on leona? o-o

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Leona scales off of AP. If you ever see an AP leona, you better run.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Ever taken calculus? Know what a limit is? Essentially at a certain point as a variable approaches another number, it can be considered that number. But ok. I'll be done since you clearly want to be.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I just would think she'd be stronger on the tankier side. Ap Leona sounds scary though ;=;

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

wow u see this would be an applicable argument if you provided a rigorously proofed mathematical formula backing you up rather than pretending like limits are some kind of difficult mathematical concept that you can just chuck out without any further elaboration and think "omfg i bet he didnt take calc 1 in high school!! LOL he gonna spend so much time on wikipedia!!!"

but i mean seriously i know you're trying to save face because you look like a total tool

but like

really

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

usually if i get paired up with really bad players i'll wait a bit before joining the queue again so i dont get paired with them again

ez pz

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Sometimes when I play bots for first win, people talk back to the bots. I dunno if they're serious or not.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Should I have to reprove something that's been done time and again? It's common knowledge if you've taken the class, which you apparently have, so what's the issue?

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

are you two still bitching about this? Really?

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

It's not really. Her ratios are too low, cds too high, and her kit does nothing to really warrant building ap. Tank/support Leonas who know what they're doing are more scary.

Hybrid pen reds are better, and consider scaling ap blues if your against ad or sure you're gonna crush lane.


This is a really good Leona page, 3 health quints prolly better than 2 + 1 armor quint though.

Gonna be bad players in queue no matter how long you wait =P (But yeah it's best to avoid bad players that you've already had a negative experience with~)

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I'm starting to replace my mpen with hpen on my AP page. A lot of people including you are saying that they're a lot better and I can see why - do you recommend it on all AP champs?

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Pretty much, unless you know you won't be able to auto harass very well.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

u act like this is an argument lmao

this is pretty much just a retard who said something incomprehensibly fucking stupid trying to make himself look not as retarded with pseudo-intellectualism

but i mean what do i care im not the one stuck in gold

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I gave you a scenario where the risk was not negligible. clearly that means that there exist scenarios where risks do play into account, and that's only proof of concept. there are lots of other scenarios where the same such case also occurs

ok so you pretty much just admitted that you don't understand game theory at all
1. there is no "more common occurrence" because both options are justified
2. it doesn't matter which is more common, the fact is that your strategy depends on what your opponent picks, so you have to take probabilities into account
3. since the chance of the other player picking either choice is not negligible, your strategy must take into account the risks associated with each strategy

and if you're still not convinced that people are not defaulted to ratting out, let me just tell you that I would more often choose to cooperate, so clearly the problem is not as simple as you make it sound

yes, different situations can change the risks, obviously, this is the point of game theory

in game theory, the strategy each player chooses depends on the strategies of the other players

that means the risks CHANGE, they're not lowered.

in one dimension, team play makes certain risks higher, such as the coordination decisions across the map. however, in solo queue you have a different set of risks, such as: understanding the team compositions to figure out whether or not there will be early invades, determining what locations are being warded to figure out whether or not it's worth ganking via a certain route (failing could result in counterganks, wasted time, and not correctly judging ally contributions could bait allies to death), and what common paths people take to catch people out of position

the difference is that you're wrong. he's right. there's nothing to "take" if you're totally right

assessment of a situation is indeed different from execution. I am more of a smart player than a mechanical player, I don't know if I've mentioned this before. but it's still irrelevant because it's clear you don't understand HOW to assess situations, and that's the difference. mina is able to shit on both shitty players and good players. why? he can watch how a player lanes, and use that information to determine the skill level of a player, and from that figure out how far he can trust his allies and how he can outplay his opponent. THIS IS THE WHOLE POINT

durp thx for admitting to an example that proves yourself wrong


as for the calculus limit thing, you actually need to show how it applies to league because I've actually done real mathematics to analyze this game and I'm 99% sure you don't actually know where calculus is relevant in actual mathematical analysis. so you're basically talking about something that is irrelevant to the discussion

plz go back to school and get better, you're making yourself look dumb
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning...3Kruger_effect

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Sure, there are a lot of scenarios where risk isn't negligible. I'm not saying that every action carries no risk. I'm saying some have none. One counterexample doesn't disprove it. You literally need to list every single interaction and associate a meaningful risk to make your argument work.

Are you telling me people are more commonly benevolent, and don't even take into account the likelihood that the other person with screw them over? Sure, if you know the other person well enough, or have an agreement before going in you can easily both take the lighter punishment. However, most people don't know each other. Most people don't trust each other, regardless of their morality. We don't exactly live in a society where those who trust thrive. You said most often you would choose to cooperate. How would I know that on the other end? I would prefer the lighter sentence, but I'll be damned if you'd give me longer time to save yourself. Rational self interest dominates here.

You're telling me that a risk cannot change to being negligible? That most risks don't diminish when it's far less common to be punished for it? I'll take Lee Sin as an example. Picking him in a coordinated setting is a far greater risk than doing so in soloqueue. In teams, strong as he is early on, you have to plan for his eventual falloff. If you don't snowball somebody by then, you become a liability that can only perform soft cc maybe twice in a teamfight and a displacement once, usually at the start. Picking him in soloqueue diminishes that risk, as the enemy team is, more often than not, no longer extremely coordinated. They are far less likely to shut you down and prevent you from snowballing anybody.

This can be applied to a large number of choices in the game. Even something as important as counterpicking doesn't apply to well over half the player base when you're in soloqueue. Sure, if you happen to be good at a counter it will aid you greatly, but forcing yourself into a pick you're uncomfortable with loses you far more games than not counterpicking, barring some outlier cases like picking gp into panth.

And then take it a step further into normals. Most people don't play normals with the mindset of ranked. Nobody wants to lose, sure, but nobody is aiming for perfect performance either. There goes even more risk.

Are you required to be a bag of dicks to get your point across? Am I being a dick to you currently? You aren't exactly being nice, but you're certainly far less scathing. There really is no need to be cunty in a discussion on a forum.

And if he's totally right, instead of only partially, he should be able to convince me beyond all shadow of a doubt fairly easily. So far all he's been is insulting, and acts like his examples are the end all be all. You've at least tried to provide a decent counterexample with the blitz grab.

If I don't understand how to assess situations then how exactly do I survive in my matches? Gold is still the top 10% of players, even if everyone calls it the new bronze. In normals, albeit those are generally less of a tryhard environment, I play with low to mid plats fairly often and perform at their level. If I truly didn't understand any of this, I'd be bronze, or at least silver. There's no way I would have been carried two seasons in a row to an appropriate rank.

As above, one counterexample doesn't disprove that some abilities have negligible risk attached. You guys have the benefit of debating a more well established point, but the burden of debating for literally every single action.

It's not meant to be a full mathematical analysis, I'm simply stating that as a variable approaches a number it eventually becomes negligibly close. the limit as the risk goes to 0, is, in this case, 0. If we were talking about something even mildly more complex then I'd give a more complex answer.

What have you done, exactly? Theoretical numbers for theoretical changes to a champ? Items? What have you analyzed? I'm interested to know in a nonargumentative sense.

And the Dunning Kruger Effect is misplaced here, I'm not saying that mine is the only way, or even the better way, simply that his extreme blanket statement isn't necessarily right. I'm open to a valid argument to the contrary.

speeddemon more like weed demon hahahaha get it

also take your dick comparison argument somewhere else because im out of your guys league (get it) anyways ;)

oh also jesse told me i'm perma'd on NA rip cbrx

smite arena is more fun than league tho get at me

Long ways to Gold ....

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

zzz bored and ranked disabled. come play? xD

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I can tonight. Right now Im about to go finish some errands.

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I guess that's fine. Kids bashing me cause I don't know how to kha zix. I'll prob be back on at like 8 or 9

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

1. that's not what we're talking about. if you can't agree on the topic of debate then you shouldn't be debating
spamming mundo cleavers while sitting in base is not an "investment of resources"

2. while it's true one counterexample doesn't disprove your statement, you don't actually need to "list every single interaction and associate a risk" to prove my point. do you actually need to list every integer to show that it can be the sum of 2 other integers? clearly you haven't done any real math or you'd never make this claim

this is my general life philosophy because I think it's fundamentally better for humans to help each other

again, I'm a living counterexample of this. my point again: BOTH defect and cooperate are justified strategic choices, and the fact that you don't understand this means you don't understand game theory

I can't be any more straightforward than this

I don't know if you've heard of this d1 player named best riven na. I once smurfed with him and he went legendary 12 games in a row with lee sin, something he can only do with few other champions

lee sin is actually an insanely good champion for carrying yourself if you're good. you don't understand this because you're not actually good at the game. I'd explain but it'll all go over your head, just like the last 20 paragraphs I've typed

this whole thing is irrelevant

if someone said that ad carries never deal more damage than support champions and someone was being a cunt to him for saying that, it doesn't matter how much of a cunt he is, the guy is still wrong

you're wrong, whether or not I'm a cunt has nothing to do with it. more accurately, I'm being a cunt because you're wrong

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning...3Kruger_effect
try convincing a creationist that evolution isn't "just a theory." I dare you

if you understand how to assess situations, why are you still gold

you make this statement as if the top 10% of players actually understand this game on a strategic level

if a variable approaches infinity it never becomes "negligibly close" to infinity
whether or not something becomes "negligibly close" depends on what you define as "close" from both situation assessment and error analysis
the limit as risk goes to 0 makes what 0? risk? so risk = risk?????

if you wanna play this "not a full mathematical analysis" game I can say that because of something called chaos theory, any tiny decision you make during a game can completely alter its course, therefore making the associated risks of any decision extremely large and significant. have you never heard of chaos theory? maybe you should go back to school and take a chaos theory class

sorry but I only share my analysis to people I actually trust

I've spent way too much time working on this to be willy-nilly throwing this information around like it's free to people who won't even understand it and use it poorly and make me look like a cunt. no thx

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

Xenics running the "Yasuo setup comp" vs SKT S
Shyvana Wukong Yasuo Lulu + safe ADC (Cait, Ez, Lucian)

I've seen it a few times before in competitive play, saw it in the NA challenger league games recently. Definitely seems to be the best comp for getting a Yasuo rolling. Reliable AoE knockups in every section of the map at 6, general good scaling and great teamfight potential.

Fun to see the big knockup wombo comboes and the smart rotations the other team has to make to avoid them.


That said I still think Yasuo has an overtuned and overloaded kit and is an un-fun champion to play against

I started sliver 3 this season, yesterday morning i was silver 2 with 0 points. Now im on a nice win streak and was playing against plat ranked players every other game. So, looking for a nice division skip if i can keep it up.

P.S. I was plat last season

Re: League of Legends [v2]
 

I wish i could move up in Silver its impossible. I always win 1 and then lose 2. ughhh
