So i finished my promos +1 game for a total of 6 games. i went 4-2 which all be it a small sample size is a really good win rate. The details of the 6 games are listed at the end. However overall i think my performance in these games show that im a clear smurf learning an off-role. my KDA is high and my CSpM is large as well. These stats dont mean im doing well but especially for platinum or any other low elo game i think KDA and CSpM is really all you should focus on. Games arent performed to the level where players who only care about their performance not a win or loss means the game is over. I consistently have large leads over the enemy jungler and other players in the game so its great practice to learn how to snowball from a jungle perspective.
Besides that i noticed this elo (PLAT MMR) has awful mechanics AND never ward. it makes it difficult to calibrate if i should be sacking my camps for ganks. Sometimes that is an optimal play sometimes it isnt. but when players make it so easy to get ganked it makes it hard for me to learn when those moments are.
Additionally playing early game champs and sacking my tempo for an advantage in my teammates is worthless. my tempo = to CSpM and plat is still an elo where players dont understand how to push advantages without being extremely risky and so gold leads change over and over. This means getting my teammates fed is a bad idea and if i farm and get myself ahead i can still punish oppoennets even if they might be more ahead. It feels like players in this elo only know how to cheese out of my 6 games i was level 1 invaded 5 times. and every single one of them were kinda obvious if i was respecting the threat as a possibility. It makes me scared when im going to go up against bel veth, nidalee mains that invade correctly.
Overall im still learning this new role and its apparent. My clear speeds are trash to where i want them to be (still often out clearing opponents on 1st clear and having higher CSpM) my matchup knowledge is awful. really im relying on general game knowledge and mechanics to carry me in these games. and it kinda sucks not knowing all the little optimizations of my previous role. Like any leona players out there NOT reading this cause why would u heres a tip. MAX e into janna milio ect. Most peal supports disengage tools have a set CD and dont increase with level. throwing out an E having it disengaged means your E will come up sooner than your opponents disengage tools allowing for lanes that seem unplayable to actually have opertunities to play. These are things i dont know in the jungle i dont know J4 does this clear 90% of the time or this champ and this interaction. Its not anything holding me back but it would make the game alot easier if i knew without needing to look up that Wukong takes double AD stat runes over attack speed cause it helps him clear early game faster.
Anyways the first 5(6) games are important cause thats your placements, i will give another update when i hit plat or when im @ 100 games or when i feel like it. I also wont add game details i just think its nice marking my 1st few games into this journey for an understanding.
THE GAMES
1. WIN Rek'Sai KDA 21/5/22 flame horizon. Tough game we had a losing top laner and an ADC who was mad i didnt gank pre minute 3 to the point he would follow me and steal my camps. It ended at minute 40 so it was coin flip team fights but ig i was smurfing cause the macro pressure i put was crazy
2. LOSS Rek Sai 10/3/6 picked into kindred jg. Top lane was super volatile so i sacked my bot side of the map to vertical jung and got my top lane fed 4 kills by 5 minutes. I didnt even get the gold or take the CS. He ended up dying on repeat my bot lane ran it down cause they dont understand weak side and kindred stacked up a bunch which was my fault. And since the team was behind any play i made was countered by kindred ult. Loss KDA
3. WIN Wukong 8/4/9 game with a feeding top Neeko, Riven mid, and a Mel bot which literally could not hit a single q or e. Honestly me riven and the senna sup were all GOATed so the game wasnt to hard.
4. WIN Wukong 12/1/12 Flame Horizon got invaded level 1 against before minions against a maokai so i invaded him, the Naafri tried to stop me so i just 1v1ed her and took his top side. from there i had a gold advantage and just forced fights. our camile sup in classic off role sup fashion tried to force fights off tempo and almost threw the lead but i was able to build enough of an advantage early i had tri force when maokai only had haunting guise and i just stole his whole jungle then farmed mine till i was full build at 25 minutes.
5. LOSS rek sai 9/3/5 flame horizon. i picked rek sai so i can perma gank the kass mid but our locke left lane level 3 to never return only to not build a lead top against a sion who ended up having 1500 stacks late game. I couldnt make plays on the map cause i constantly had to cover mid and since locke was top 2v1ing Viego would hover also i couldnt perma stay mid cause of my jg item. so kass got fed and game was over
6. WIN Diana 10/1/10 Flame horizon win. Jg jax tried to invade me and my team responded super quick i ended up getting an item adv over him and just invaded off rip he could not duel me and we used that to build a lead to overcome the fed kled top and fed yuumi trist bot.
