I don't even, what is that xD

On-topic: People claim they go through Hell to climb one tier but to be honest that can be traced back to them and how they performed, at least, in my opinion. I wouldn't say it's terribly difficult to climb from, say, Silver to Gold, but failing promos a whole bunch is the absolute worst :c

I know of one dude who failed their Silver 2 -> 1 promos like, 10 times, and then there's me who only failed their Gold 4 -> 3 promos like once...and that dude is still in Silver 2 ;_;

I used to be in Silver, I know the struggles - despite that, Plat feels like the worst, considering people always have the "potential" to do something but keep disappointing you so extremely direly every single time.

Bronze, Silver and Gold you can just assume everyone's gonna feed and suck at mechanics, in Platinum it's a somewhat mixed bag so it really hits you meanly x:

Yes, I can agree with that.
In Plat, from experience, people tend to (just like you said) have the potential to make incredible plays, but not only do they constantly fail to live up to your expectations, they also think they're entitled to at least high Diamond, not Plat, so they behave like total goddamn assholes.

Silver is worse, but in a different way. People there feel demoralised from the mere fact that they're Silver, and not Gold (something a lot of Silver-ranked people dream about every night), so they give no fucks about whether or not their mechanics are equal to those of a guy without arms, or if they'll feed and quit. They just lack the fucks to give about the game itself, mostly out of self-pity or on the other extreme end - complete self-centered behaviour, even more so than those Plats.

Plats are the worst; filled with tryhards that think they're good when they don't even deserve any better. Once you start getting high Diamond games start getting more and more chill.

Bronze are, in my opinion, one of the most laid-back and kindest people on ranked. Yes, they might be terrible game-wise, but not many actually rage and feed deliberately, unlike virtually every other tier up to Diamond.

Here's a Diamond player raging even worse than the Bronze guy. 3:57 is the funniest part of the whole video. Both of these videos are probably nothing new to you anyway.
Of course there are going to be people like that all the way from Bronze to Challenger, but some tiers have more than others. Plat, in my opinion, has the most of those "know-it-all ragers".
Also, why is that retard raging, he got caught like a moron - nothing to blame your team about. Lacking vision in your own jungle? Stop telling your jungler to kill himself and buy a fucking ward yourself, so you don't look like a braindead child when you get caught like that.

I really fail to see why so many people take this game that seriously.... the last time I played ranked, I lost 4 of my games due to either my bot going completely haywire and feeding up to 1-10 and 0-12 (so 22 kills versus 1 on their side - due to me actually TPing in when I had that bit extra time and ganking the lane), or due to my jungler afking for the other 3 games. Did I get annoyed? Yeah sure, but did it affect my mood overall? Not at all. I would be in agony if I was playing for money, but since I'm not, I'm actually just having fun.

This is your opinion tho, I hear a lot of "Plat V is the worst", "Diamond V is the worst", "Silver is the worst" etc... I think the worst is always where you're stuck

Hmm I don't know, I was stuck platinum all season 4 & never found it uber toxic. Yes, there was some toxic players but just like in all other leagues from bronze to challenger I guess

Basically, after you get your ult, plan it so you bait your opponent into being near your image (easy to do versus guys who have no awareness), and then you have 2 choices:

If you are certain they'll remain around it (I mean your ult DOES have an enormous aoe) drop your Q, and with a little skill, they get hit twice, E onto them to proc those 3 stacks and then ult.... if they aren't dead by then, use ignite. :p

The other choice is doing it backwards - ult first, then when you're right next to them, Q, and while it's floating and waiting for that second trigger, E onto them, and when it returns, it'll proc the 3rd strike, dealing tonnes of damage. :p

Alternatively, you can use your ult to TP back into the lane, but then you have to be certain that either you'll win every trade against your opponent and can kill them without using your ult (which is a BIG damage dealing and HP recovery tool), or you have a premade jungler who will camp your lane hard.

No, more often than not Ekko ult is to save you, similar to Zed ult. But if you can safely use it to damage, then yeah

I can safely say that his ult is always going to be used in higher ranked (during the laning phase only) as a free TP back to the lane, above everything else, as I've watched numerous games and almost every damn Ekko I see is never using his ult in the laning phase for damage/heals, but for a cheap, low CD TP.

Back in lower elo, it's easy as shit to just let your opponent walk into your image, and they're mildly screwed from that point on, as his ult has, I believe, 130% AP ratio, with 200-250 base damage (too lazy to check) on the first rank. That's more than enough to rape a third of a level 6 midder's HP. He is definitely going to receive a nerf on his 3-hit proc in the future, too.

Ekko's pretty much is however. The damage portion of the ult is rarely a good option, and it is more used as a way to let you go ham, then go back. Zed was just an ability to compare it to.

Yeah it allows for safe dives and grants access to very reliable escape. Using it to deal damage is rather tricky assuming the enemies are not stupid enough to keep walking on Ekko's hologram.

Crashing? I've been playing every day and am in a lobby right now - no crashes to this date. Also no glitches or weird bugs, either.

Though, I DID experience what it's like to play on EUW for the first time, the day before yesterday, when I was on the TTL, server completely died for some reason and everyone had 700 ping. Killing shit was fun - one second you're csing, another second triple kill. lol

I feel like the game would be a lot better if Riot would actually give more qualified people access to the PBE server instead of random kids that never report any bugs and are unable to give any sort of constructive criticism or give valuable feedback.
I haven't played in over a month because I dislike the state of the game as it is right now (and also because The Witcher 3 and ESO have kept me busy).

I find it hilarious I still have PBE access even though I haven't logged into it in over a year. Since the Feral Flare testing/nerfs.

Even the people who report bugs (unless its something major) and post good informing stuff are pretty much ignored. The thread I made about that shitty jungle item that got Warwick nerfed was completely ignored despite the math I provided and the upvotes I got.

It's less about unqualified people having access and more about Riot simply not giving a shit.

We can get a mongrel mod to edit it so it becomes a place where you share your name with others, basically like the "find a friend" thread. Add a couple of details like the number of games you've played so far, your preferred mode, ranking (if you're into playing ranked with others) et cetera et cetera.

Maybe, just maybe we could make it work, perhaps?

To achieve the best spam effect, you need to play aram, where everyone is ALWAYS there and as they have no means of escaping, they're forced to listen to it, regardless of what they do.

I still have no idea why they just don't turn off the sound altogether and instead just listen to obnoxious noises. Masochists? Maybe.

Ranked 5s is fun if you have the right group, but my team fell apart and some of my friends we added just weren't taking the game as seriously or had weird schedules so we kind of quit playing. I really like 5s though because you can pull off all kinds of plays you'd never see in solo queue.

Pretty much what happens every time I try to join a ranked 5s team. Even though they say it's gonna be serious most ppl give up after a few lost games or ppl just go back to doing their own thing D: But yeah pulling off sick wombo combo plays with your team feels great.
