In the case that you do put all your eggs into one basket (ie, one lane), the person with the higher elo should be ADCing, and the lower supporting. Like if I duo'd with PsiGuard, I wouldn't be the ADC. However, that's a little bit of an extreme example; I didn't realise Nick was only a tier above you. Just keep keeping on!

Reading this post was like reading german to me.

I somewhat understood what jhoijhoi was trying to say, but it still didn't make any sense.

Was quite simple. Adc has more impact than support, let the higher skilled played (i.e. higher elo in this example) have the more impact.

How is that german?
If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

Wasn't hard to understand, though I don't really agree with the 'whoever is higher in elo is the better player to be playing the ADC role' feel to it. Even if Nick were still platinum (as in season 2), I'd consider myself the better AD ;)

lol, not sure why it was German sounding. Basically I meant exactly what Crows said. I wasn't aware that Nick didn't play ADCs, AND that he was no longer Plat, otherwise I wouldn't have made the comment. Basically, I was treating the situation the same way as when Max and I would duo. As he's the higher elo (Plat), I would never assume to make him support me, especially as his mechanics are far better than mine.

I kinda meant that just because you're higher elo doesn't mean you're a better ad-carry thus not meaning that guy should ad-carry.

As an example i duo-quee with a guy. I'm Plat III and he's gold II. Our ad-carry is kinda similar(mine is prolly a little better than his) yet we always go for him as the ad-carry because my support is so much better than his and i have a lot bigger of an impact onto the game supporting than he has.

What i mean is elo=/=picks

Game 62+63

Duo Queue with "Vapora Dark" (Khazem)






Just realised I haven't even posted these two games, played on the 28th on February.

Don't really remember a lot, Khazem got incredibly fed on Akali the first game and I was winning bot lane with a random who was "happy to finally have a good ADC" :3
Second game Khazem picked Katarina mid but got camped pretty hard and he admitted he should've probably picked something else. Top lane lost pretty hard while my bot lane with a random was also pretty hopeless. Don't remember too much, but no one on our team was playing / doing well and we lost pretty hard.

Gained 1 Point.


LP: 51



As for why I haven't played ranked since, I've been pretty busy with uni stuff and I'm currently working on getting my top lane play back up to a respectable level. I have no uni next week though, so I expect to dive back into ranked and go for gold soonTM.

Also, I might be streaming.

Game 64-66

Solo Queue






First game ( Elise) showed just how bad silver players are when it comes to dodging the Malphite ult. I beat him in lane (despite missing a lot of cs because I hadn't player Elise in a while), but mid and bot lane were both losing ( Karthus vs Katarina mid, Taric- Caitlyn vs Ezreal- Leona bot) so we needed to teamfight well. Unfortunately, our first few teamfights were in areas in the jungle where Malph had no trouble landing his ult and we lost them pretty hard. After that, however, we had some well played fights (even one where we were diving them despite being behind) and it showed we could win.

The reason we lost, in the end (and feel free to read this sentence multiple times in order to fully grasp what it says), is because we got baited by Karthus' Shurelya's Battlesong as the enemy team was pushing our second bot tower and everyone except me ran in, only to get hit by a Leona + Malphite ult combo and get wiped pretty much instantly........

Games after that were better though, I missed a lot of cs in the Ezreal game (I had 5 cs less than my Bronze opponent in the end, lol), but the Blitzcrank I was laning with played pretty well and we ended up winning lane comfortably which allowed me to snowball heavily. The enemy Kha'Zix top was getting fed but luckily my team protected me well enough for me to deal with him.

Last game I picked Ez again but was told not to pick him while MF was open, so I was like "oh eeeh, ok.." and went for Miss Fortune. Me and my support Lulu completely stomped the enemy Vayne- Leona combo (and I was farming well, too :D), but again the enemy top laner ( Jax this time) was getting fed as Shen managed to die to him 1v1 three times within three minutes. Luckily, our mid Orianna played rather brilliantly and got fed as well so we were able to deal with that (also my team was protecting me quite well with the Shen and Lulu ult being used on me 9/10 times).

Lost 9, gained 6 and 7. Have to keep winning a lot if my LP gains remain that low.


LP: 55





Score so far: 33-33 >.>
