Sightstone is the best example of the NBA 3 point line

ThwartinMaPlans··2 votes·419 views

Just like in high teir team LoL other sports face issues with normal play and pro play. I remember a rioter liking balancing champs for casual and Lcs to the distance the 3-point line in basketball is from the rim. Sightstone I think is the biggest one for league. Lower tiers no one's setting up objectives or really watches the mini-map anyway so for 800 gold...I could be about halfway to redemption instead and just rely on wardin trinkets. The big issue there then becomes no one is sweeping enemy wards (or teemo shrooms) so the map is one black blob all around. Where as in Pro play ONE deep ward can completely change the game on a teleport kennen flanking play. In the end I'm just...saying I wish there could be a perfect scenario between casual and Pro....thats just never going to happen. Face it....theres no basketball set of rules thats going to stop LeBron james from kicking the shit out of your varsity basketball team....

There's plenty more to this topic I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents quick. Any thoughts or opinions agree or disagree feel free to post.

vision is always of value, even if it's not utilized as well as the pros.

Honestly, in Bronze and Silver investing in vision does feel like a waste. I've had multiple games in which the enemy would be doing a 3 man Baron that we could easily stop, but abolutely nobody followed and went farm bot/jungle. Or seen enemies approaching in the river or Gang Heavy Junglers doing their buffs near to their lanes, and would push and stay pushed even with the information.

I'd argue that, at least in low Elos, you're better off going for raw stats or cool actives if you want to have an impact.

I was plat last season and I'm in silver now, so are u saying vision isn't important to me cuz I'm in silver?

Nope. You're a Plat player stuck in Silver who will quickly climb out of it. I'm talking about Silver players who will play through the whole season stuck in Silver. True Silvers.

You're just in Silver, some players are Silver.

I have played quite a few games this season already, sadly it hasn't been quick for me at all. though my 1 trick champ got reworked and I've been trying to learn other champions. probably a big reason for it. but if I wanted to climb quickly I'd just go back to 1 tricking rengar... if he's not perm banned....
