The last few days I have started focusing on ranked. As you who played ranked knows, it is first when you see what the opponents choose that you can counter it. This of course not viable in normal games. What I do need to learn to be able to make/recommend picks for my team? What abilities counter what, and maybe even more importantly how to get a good synergy in your own team and in lanes?
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.

You can't really just explain it...you just have to know...

for instance if someone goes Ashe or Vayne, pick Caitlyn to outrange and outharass them...

too many to explain, just use sense and try to have a solid team comp (solo top, jungle, ap mid, ad support bot preferably, although that won't happen every game at lower Elo, rest assured xD)

if you are against someone in mid who spams a ton and has CC like Annie, you might wanna pick someone who can outrange them and harass them from a safe distance like Orianna to counter.

etc

Thanks to TRUeLM, Plastictree, Scrax, Xiaowiriamu, foggy12, JahGFX, jhoijhoi, msrobinson, JEFFY40HANDS, Nyoike, MissMaw, and me :) for the sigs!

I am sorry for a VERY open question that really needs days and weeks of writing to cover.

I am also sorry for sucky spacing in my question. It happens when I write from my cell, it doesn't add the spaces I put in.

What have been thinking though is that ccreating synergies in my own team is way more important than countering the opponents. At least in the ELO I am at (around 1100). Most teams have little or no synergy, even if one player sets something up the team can rarely follow through consistently.

It'll take some time until you find that synergy.
