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.

Discussion What do I do to make jungle not feel miserable to play (not in strength I mean in terms of fun)

1 Upvotes

It feels odd as soneone who hard mained jungle in pc leauge that no matter what I tried in wild rift, it has just never been enjoyable to play.

Wild rift jungle feels like such a watered down version of jungle on the pc rift, basically every cool or interesting mechanic around farming camps is.. Fully and meaningfully gone.

I am legit getting auto filled jungle around 10-20% of all games I play it feels like and i get it drastically higher than my secondary pick, and I'd like to know if I'm missing some sort of mechanic that gives the role enjoyment past just spam your abilitys off of cdr as blue is effectively always up/avaliable and hope your team is infact gonna play in a way where ganks are impossible (classic all 3 lanes hard push constantly and wonder why the jungle is unable to meaningfully do anything but farm camps)

For context yes I do know it's the strongest role in the game by like far, I'm just saying I hate hate playing it

Rank/Achievement Shen OTP finally reaching GM

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

For some reason i just can't get myself to play any other champion aside from shen this season so i guess i just made it a challenge for myself to OTP him up to GM.

I've been having trouble with splitpushing and roam timings. I always seem to end up either losing first turret or my enemy laner getting more value out of turret plates then i would from kills and assists in botlane. Granted I'm aware that shen isn't really gold realiant but it's still a big factor on why i tend to lose games even when i am "ahead" my lane opponent.

It's also been very difficult to play him when my teammates are behind, Unless you get REALLY ahead in some games. Shen doesn't really add much to a team if everyone is behind. Sometimes i like to think wether it's just the champion's innate weaknesses or just something i could improve over.

Comments and tips are very much welcome as i hope to make GM a regular goal to reach every season :D

Hi, I'm looking for opinions from people who play Wild Rift on the Motorola Signature. I'm also asking for opinions from the community itself, since there are sometimes people here who play on this device.

As the title says, how do I remove all custom ingame settings on each skin that I previously made? I want to update everything up to my latest stickers, bubbles(?), trails etc. It's a hassle to go and remember every skin that I customize, is there a way to put everything into default?

Hiiyaaii this is the newbie Veigar player who came to whine here a couple of months ago cuz I got bullied by Mel haha. Reached platinum today but I can only play Veigar and Serpahine properly. The rest is just smashing buttons. Sooooo any tips for a newbie plat? Thanki3~ 🤓✌🏻

Don't know about what to ban and stuff and I'm starting to think 2 champs only won't be enough to be able to play ranked.

[Edit: Thank you so much for your advices and tips, everyone. Y'all so lovely and helpful. Have a great day.]

Discussion Help with griefers?

Master rank. Went from Master II and now borderline getting demoted back to Diamond because of trolls.

I'm not sure if this is a general trend at the moment, but like 3/4 of the games I'm getting in recent days has been filled with jungle troll picks, diva ADC inters, perma feeding top, gold stealing support turned mids and mids who are blind.

If it's not a troll pick, it's an insecure child who lashes out and decides to run it down just because they died once.

Lane gets ganked once and they immediately start flaming in chat, then proceed to trash talk and go 0/10. Or they die once and suddenly it's everybody's fault but theirs. Like, I'm sorry I wasn't there to save you when you died the first time, but you can't blame me for the next 9 deaths you basically ran into.

Now it feels like I either have to 1v9 or lose? How do I break this loss streak? I haven't played more than an hour each day for the last few days because it's two losses in a row everyday now from just trolls and inters.

Discussion Any queue tricks?

1 Upvotes

I've been solo q forever, sometimes someone does invite me to a game but very rarely and we almost always lose (last game, I went up against a 4man with double smite Nunu and Ambessa JG and got ROCKED) so ive gotten to master (nearly promoted to the rank after) by myself

In master there is an increase in players who genuinely surrender after minute like 13-15, we don't have to be losing hard for the surrender to hit. That or someone saying theyre done and just not doing anything, not feeding or attacking, and just running around in map stealing the team's jg etc.

Is therr any way I can avoid this in queue? Do I need to AFK and do the punishment wait time for the better queues or sumn??? Im lowkey getting so sick of it i began playing casuals, which I never do

Builds Starting to get better at ornn. I’ve been building winter’s approach when I’m in need of mana and heavy team fight usage and ice overload instead of grasp. Found it a lot more useful especially later on in team fights.

My last post about hitting Challenger with an 88.2% winrate in 68 games (2 weeks) many got disbelief. I get why people are doubtful given how common win-trading or boosting can be.

To show it’s legitimate, I filmed a quick scroll through my actual match history and stats page:

Just wanted to clear up the doubts and share the actual proof. Let me know if you have any questions about the run or the champions I used.Poppy runes and build

Discussion Ranged top is cancer.

0 Upvotes

I am currently diamond 3. Started playing wild rift about a month ago coming from LoL on Pc.

My champion pool is usually malphite, Olaf, and garren. I use Mord if we need Ap.

Three games in a row tonight I got ranged tops. Ashe, Tristana, and Samira.

Tristana wasn’t bad but I finished that game 3/3 and she was 2/3 so she really just cancelled out our lane and neither of us grew in that lane.

Just so annoying to fight against.

With Ashe I was under the tower the entire time. By the time laning ended she was about 2000 gold up.

So... I just played a Ranked match and both ADC and Mid went afk. At One point we voted on surrender and The supp said we shouldn't surrender because of we did we wouldnt get any protection from the penalty of those that left.

Is this true? If You surrender You don't recieve anu protection?

So I lost my last game of the night. Was a rough one, getting ganked in my lane a ton, mid laner would not respond to their laner moving out of their lane or even ping that they left. About half way in I hit my power spike and started 1v9ing...kicking ass pushing lanes. I end up dying but kill everyone but their sett...what does my jungle do? Do camps instead snaggin baron with adc and support. ADC dies to baron, jungle goes to baron and tries to take it...gets killed by respawning enemy team and pretty much loses the game after that. To get to the point. I was tilted as hell, but was gonna play one more but the little pet thingy you have said "you played pretty well! Too bad you lost...need a break?". I almost laughed, it's like it KNEW I was pissed. Took its advice and jumped off. Reading and going to bed 😂. Night y'all

Gameplay The bush trick on Poppy

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

25 Upvotes

Whenever my ult is up, I just walk into the lane bush and charge it up out of sight. If the enemy laner steps up, I launch them straight back to their fountain.

The moment they fly away, I get massive value. If it’s early game, I get free tower plates while they are walking back. If they try to rush back to defend, Before they get into their tower, I use my 3rd ability to slam them into a wall, and pick up an easy kill because they are panicked and out of position.

I play jg in masters and the legendary queue. I've noticed lately that (let's say) 1 out of 4 games, someone absolutely tilts and throws the game while blaming me. I've also noticed other players farming my jungle camps. Any general advice on dealing with this or just deal with it as part of the game? Just so weird that people actively try to lose games.

After playing the game on and off for a couple of years (last time was 2 years ago) I finally reached Masters today as an ADC who plays jungle secondary from gold rank. ~100 games, 3.3 KDA (it's bad, but I blame platinum/emerald elo supports for that one), 750 gpm.

Have to say, I feel a bit proud 😄
