After having a quick scan through the threads in this section, I came across quite a worrying thread by Xaioli, its about screenshots and being Low ELO.

I personally have a terrible ELO, around 900 in ranked. Yes very very bad, but thats because I stopped playing ranked and have been focusing on normals (which is equally bad since I only have around 300 wins, and a 20 gap from losses)... I also don't have the best runes.

Now some of you may know that I am creating a Shaco guide, because he is a champion that I feel very comfortable with and I also perform much better with. It has come to the point where, I just want to release a guide in search of fame and recognition (yeah, ima keep it clean and honest), but not only that.. I want to give something back to Mobafire...

Now I feel like I know ALOT about the "theory" of LoL, enough to write a guide... however I am not that "skilled" in LoL, heck I'm quite terrible at many games. Would having a low ELO restrict me from making a guide? Should I just be like: **** it, and not release a guide whilst I just go around looking at other peoples guides?

Summary: I know my ****, but i'm not that skilled at LoL (low elo)... Can I still make and release a guide?

Yes of course you can, can I ask how many wins you have?

If the guides good people will upvote. Only a select few would DV 'cause you have a bad W/L rate or elo *looks at Xaioli*
Australians, the best gamers in the world combined with the worst ping.

Wow, people clearly didn't read my thread at all. It simply stated this.

"As a kind request from Xaioli, if you ever make guides in the future, please add your elo if you add screenshots or replays, regardless if they are in normal or ranked. You owe it to your viewers to let them know where they are learning their knowledge from. I'm not saying "IF YOU AREN'T 1600 ELO, U CAN'T MAKE GUIDES." No. I urge everyone to make guides and to assist everyone, but when you are adding 'proof/testimonials', show your 'skill level."

That's it.

well in ranked I have a only around 7 wins, 11 losses.. I just played ranked as soon as I reached level 30, was chillin' with tier 1 runes and pushing lanes regardless of getting gold from minions.. ahh horrible times ..

Oh and sorry about that Xai, like I said I just scanned through the thread, thanks for the confirmation that you will not rage about my horrible ELO when I publish the guide (sometime soon :D)

Thanks again for the quick reply and motivation :D!

Do it Dante, as I posted in that thread you DO NOT have to be really good at something to understand it very thoroughly. I linked an article about coaching in eSports at some point in that thread. Talks about how some of the best coaches ever were completely mediocre at the game back when they played and some of the absolute worst coaches ever were in the like top 3 players ever (hockey with Wayne Gretzky is one of the examples I recall). Just be very thorough in your guide and really demonstrate your knowledge of the game and I'm sure people will like it. Good luck!

its for everyone, I don't really have a target audience.. basically anyone who wants to learn to play shaco or just understand another person's view on shaco (basically improve their knowledge)... As for the name, I like it.. the best names were already taken and I didnt want to make it cheesy.

And wrath, well it was top.. some rogue downvotes made it disappear.. oh well, atleast people are learning something from it and enjoy the guide (looking at the comments)
