Haven't had any afks or trolls except in my first game.

I'm having a mad struggle with league at the moment. I'm still enjoying it, but I'm watching some massive losses. Especially games where I don't too badly myself. Not sure if it's just a streak or what.

Same here! I may just play as much morde as I can, tbh - he counters the meta mids amazingly well (and to a lesser extent he does well AGAINST many meta champs) and I love playing him,

Shit happens. I find this happens to me when I get lazy with shot calling, since that's the main thing I bring to a team at my MMR

[Cabd]

Starting to wonder if the amumu thing is just a new buff they forgot to mention. No change still.

[The Bulge]

Just played one of my best games ever. Definitely the most fun. Had some really odd team fights and a few excellent panth ults. It's also really encouraging to be complimented by strangers (and from the enemy team!)

Spoiler:

Game is so much about snowballing these days. Or it always has been or maybe it is just a bronze thing... idk.

Just seems like you win by a mile or lose by one.

[zoraster]

If anything it seems to me less snowbally than it used to be.

[DeathNote]

Really? Like every game is either my team dominating or getting dominated. The score is constantly 5 to 20+

[DeathNote]

Not every game obviously but there is a distinct majority.

[hiplop]

im with zoraster. games seem drawn out and objectives like baron/drags bring the games to pretty even levels

So true. And back to B3 again for the 15th time this season. I dont understand why people cant hold their own in lane

[DeathNote]

Apparently it's a bronze thing.

[Iecerint]

They barely lose a duel or lose it due to jungler intervention, then re-enter lane resolved that it will go differently this time, heedless of the growing XP and item gap, etc.

[PJ.]

Apparently it's a bronze thing.

Umm It happens in Gold and Silver. Like I hardly ever see close games. I'm not even really sure if games get close in plat either honestly.

[Iecerint]

People throw games a lot, though. Throws and counterthrows.

So you might win the 5 v 20 game.

@Wazza: Is 75% in my last 20 and 9 of my last 10 storming? CAUSE I"M STORMIN'!! #silvereasy

[JasonWazza]

Considering his "storming through" at a 65% win rate that's kinda meh.

I mean my last 20 i'm sitting at 70% but i'd by no means say i'm anywhere near storming it.

70% is definitely storming, I just looked it up. And you're playing pretty fuckign well dude. Like I know it's on Oce but you can only beat what they put in front of you, ya know?

I wouldn't say i'm playing well in most of those, hell a lot of those i know full well i was either behind and pulled it back, or in front and had to keep my team from throwing the damn game, honestly i still play a really shitty mid lane game, i have my occasional stomp game but otherwise my play sucks shit.

@Wazza: Is 75% in my last 20 and 9 of my last 10 storming? CAUSE I"M STORMIN'!! #silvereasy

I also feel like storming should be 80%+ sort of stats AND closing games pretty strongly, but i guess that's just me

Also i'm back from a bit of a break so i will probably see tomorrow if i can keep my 7 win streak alive.

[zoraster]

that seems an unreasonable and unsustainable standard in a 5 person team based game.

[JasonWazza]

Storming implys your at a better standard then all the people your with/against anyway though (which in the case, Panzer IS better then silver.) I hardly think it's that big of a thing considering boosting etc. exists to at least that sort of a standard anyway.

I find it funny when i look people up and they are so clearly boosted and they actually argue that they aren't, so many gold's exist that don't know the basic's then i question why they switched F/D keys between ranked and normals.

Good times.

[Espeonage]

I hold it as a high achievement that I penta'd Panzer once, three years ago.

[Cabd]

So i'm learning that apparently nobody in bronze knows how to braum or how to anti-braum. This is veeeeeeery relevant to me at the moment.

Nobody in bronze knows how to support.

That amount of Doran's Ring's starts i have seen on supports in low level games is stupid.

[DeathNote]

Your face is stupid.

[Klazam]

i was wondering, is it even viable to not start a support item? or is the gold generation and cost too important?
