*** League of Legends ***

I don't often play that much, at least not proper 5v5's anymore, normally we pop on for an ARAM.

But we had a game last night, i decided to play a malphite top, noticed the enemy team had 4 AD.

So i thought bugger it, let's see how high you can push physical damage reduction.

So i built Ninja tabi, not the best boots but got my worth in this game early on i think.
Sunfire cape
Frozen heart (by this point i was already waay into diminishing returns, at like 260 armour?)

Although enemy warwick was going for massive attack speed, so i build a thornmail.

This put me at about 360 passive armour, only 2.4k hp pool, but warwick tried to 1v1 jump me.... he pretty much killed himself.

After that i build a warmogs for some hp. Now it wasn't the best strategy, but it was fun to try once at least, but anyway, let's not forget malphites 's':

40% increased armour.


At one point i was 1v4'd, so after all the stuns and roots i started making my get away, karma doing the most damage to me as the only AP really (and i'd massively neglected MR, luckily they didnt figure that out as she only attacked me maybe twice in the hour). Anyway i was running and pretty much dead, although out of range, i was on barely any hp, unfortunately i don't have a number for you, but my bar was empty.
Riven did a little jump, i pop 40% extra armour, she does her little ranged attack,.....

and i just kept on running, black barred before, still on no hp after, but no discernable threat from that attack.


I don't recommend you try this, but it was indeed good fun towards the end, they just didn't bother attacking me, unless it was 3 or 4 vs 1. So i was free to run around dealing a few mountain punches, slowing as need, initiate whenever without fear, take turrets without intervention.

TL;DR 550 armour is about 86% reduced damage.
 
One of my mates who plays support stole a Baron with Nami's Q in a ranked match once. Was such a good moment, so I can totally relate to how those guys must have felt after their Janna stole it!
 
To be fair, they had it completely warded. They knew no-one could contest that Baron. Yes the jungler should have smited it anyway but nobody would have predicted a level 1 Tornado stealing it.
 
I literally have no idea how I am supposed to climb the leagues at this point. I'm at Silver 3, and every time I play I seem to win 2 then lose 2, and the losses that I get are purely because I get trolls on my team all of the time. I always seem to get people that feed on my and and/or are incredibly toxic towards me and my team mates, and refuse to communicate. It seems that there's only one thing I can do and that is report them, but how am I supposed to get higher than this with these kinds of players? I'm no pro player, but I certainly feel like I should be in Gold, but I find it simply too hard to carry these kind of people. Even playing champs such as Hecarim where I currently have a 70% win ratio on it becomes too hard. My last few games I've been gaining around 36 lp for a win and then losing it which takes me back down to 0. Since this has happened quite a few times I seem to now be getting 15-26 LP for a win instead of what I was getting before. Everytime I build up a decent amount of LP I lose it almost instantaneously. I even try to tell people in the pre-game lobby to play safely and don't flame/be toxic towards each other, which yes has worked sometimes but the majority of the time people do not listen. I do sometimes mute people but it doesn't really solve anything since communication is key in ranked games. Help me pls
TL;DR I seem to win 2 games in a row then lose 2 due to toxic players/trolls on my team. What can I possibly do to climb?
 
The only thing you can do is get better. The only way to get better is to play the game. Hours played = skill. Stop worrying about the results of your game and just play,
 
Never played it, never even read up about LoL and always thought these type of games were weird and scary.

But one day a few months ago I logged into Twitch and tournament was underway and being streamed. I ended up watching a game and being thoroughly entertained!

Now I will try and watch all the LCS tournaments when they're on. This game is certainly very watchable!

Now all I need to do is figure out what all the words the commentators say mean.

AD carry? The items, the heroes, CS, Blue Buff etc. :)

I'm level 28 and play with two real life friends, but if there are a few others that want to join to make 5 v 5 games better then I'd be happy to add you :) We play most evenings if we can :)

In-game name is Eecao.

You and your friends are very welcome to hop onto mumble. Does give you more likelihood of finding 2 additions rather than having randoms, always less toxic on voice imho. Ocuk chat in game is also a good place to find extras

This. It makes ranked a hell of a lot more enjoyable if you just play to get better and I'm pretty sure it's helped me win more as well.
 
I think the best way to climb the ladder is just keep playing, keep trying and think positivley, focus on improving your laning phase and try to recognise good situations where you can roam top or bot (from a mids perspective), think of team synergy when it comes to picking your champion, try to increase your champion pool a little, don't play to many champs at once, i took some advice from someone on here once saying i was playing to many champions and to tone it down a little, which i did and now im 100x better than i was before, if you are on a losing streak, stop playing ranked, take a little break as the negativity won't help you. Try to motivate your team when you can by saying GJ etc, also if you feel confident enough call the shots, for example calling when to push the tower or take dragon etc, i feel it's possible for anyone to climb out of bronze if you put the effort in like i have, im now silver 4 and i've set my goal on becoming gold before the season is over, set yourself a realistic goal and i guarantee you'll achieve it if you put the effort in, good luck :)
 
Limiting my champion pool is the best thing I did to improve myself in ranked. Much easier to do well when you know a champion inside out.
 
Ok, started playing over the weekend, and safe to say i've got the gist of it, and enjoying it so far.

I'm just after some tips on how to improve, currently using Caitlyn, I tend to aim to get her attack speed up first then her attack damage.

Also when it comes to leveling up, I see people taking out 3 champs at a time, i'm assuming its down to leveling up, the skill tree and runes, I'm slightly clueless to that.

Junglers always get the blame. If a laner dies its always the Junglers fault "Why you no gank Bot?"
