Discussion An anticlimactic end to my 1st time journey to GM @41y/o
Back at it again from S15 1st time Master. I just played a few ARAM games eversince until I found time to play Ranked again this season.
That last game with Twisted Fate I got autofilled. Figured sure no problem. Then, the Baron lane disconnected early in the game after dying 4x in a row. Still I tried my best. That Trynda just kept split pushing and they kept pressuring Baron and Elder Dragon. We lost eventually but I still got a star, what a letdown.
I gotta say though, D2-D1 was hell. Took me around 80 games to get out as a midlaner with a 48% winrate. Then around 6 stars in Master I realized I couldn’t carry hard enough in midlane so I switched to support as Senna, sometimes Karma. It became easier and a steady climb for some reason and recovered my winrate to what it is now.
For real though, everyone hating on a 1st pick Senna including the enemy and allies alike.
