I began playing with three of my old premade-5 team players again, plus an old high school friend, and we keep getting matched up against anywhere from silver to platinum players... I'm in Bronze and my high school friend poped level 30 a couple weeks ago (and is unranked)... Grrr...Devalix wrote:
Playing normals with my friends isn't fun anymore, we get matched against diamond players 7/10 games.
I love when diamonds are in my games. You learn so much from playing against them.Devalix wrote:

Honestly one of the reasons why the community is so bad is because toxic behavior is contagious. When people get trolled they like to follow suit. I once played a ranked game where our first pick locked teemo and called mid, and the next two picks complained that teemo was trolling and locked adc fiora and shaco top. I simply told them, "just because he might be trolling, it's no excuse for you to feed" and "please try your best". We won that game because positive attitude and good plays.

I keep going back to Bronze ranked but I'm not on a six or seven game losing streak.Aoriki wrote:

Yup...
Same shit hapenned to me, but they had 2 platinums and 3 gold playas in their team and we were bronze and silver playas.Justykanna wrote:
That seems fair, right?
Ugh.
Game before that, we had a Diamond player on the other team... to make up for that, there was also a level 23.
Because that makes up for it...
Sigh...
Yeah, I remember you saying something to that effect but I thought it was a future plan, not something they scrapped.Vulf wrote:
That's because ranked and normals have no relation to each other. They said they were going to fix this several months ago. Guess it won't be happening.
It's extremely frustrating.Aoriki wrote:

Pairing up doesn't make sense to me anymore...

Yes but diamond vs bronze / silvers is still stupidly off.Kanye West wrote:

I don't think it was scrapped, but they are definitely taking their time with implementing this though. Another reason why I hate this game at this time of year (aka close to worlds). Balance and coding team goes full retard a lot.Justykanna wrote:

Assume you're bad, it's better to not over-estimate your enemies. Most people in bronze have slow reaction times/cant decide what to do fast enough. Farm well, play well, don't get caught out. Every time you die, reflect on what you could've done better. Dying is worse then getting 10-15 cs for yourself. Don't over-extend, and watch some pro streams and copy em'.Justykanna wrote:
I 'probably' belong in Bronze, but I thought Silver would be at least reachable before the end of the month. =(
haha what? singed counters jax? I thought it was the other way around lolxRa1n wrote:
Pantheon is one of the worst kassa counters. If they pick kassadin you can counter with Zed and Panth
With Panth it's just too easy to counter but, on low elos hands are much more important than counters. That's how I reached gold when I was silver, Jax every game, they picked elise, they picked renek, or singed, for counter me, still I won.
I do assume I'm bad. I'm terrible. =Pzerothefallen wrote:

I'm sure you can do it.

I'm sure you can do it.
One part is, as you said, slow reaction time. I very much avoid real-time games in my large list of games I played and owned, for a reason. Terrible reflexes, all that stuff.
Farming I struggle with on AP champions. It's annoying.
Another problem is I dispise ranged champions in this game and it limits to what I can do with bottom lane (which is what I get stuck with more often than not).
See, I've always been taught to not overextend. Keep creeps in the middle, if they push, do something with it. If I push, I end up paying for it, if they push, they NEVER die.
I honestly don't like watching people that aren't people I know. I find it fairly boring.
