Miss Fortune and what am I doing with my life

LegitBusinessman··2 votes·509 views

I wanna start a conversation about champs and the different styles required to play them successively.

I have played probably 30 games of MF and not a single one has ended in 'man that MF really carried that game.'

The question is, what am I doing with my life? I can objectively look at this champion and see statistically she's a bit strong. The Q chunking is enormous and the skill shot isn't inherently that difficult to get comfortable landing which I do land at a good rate. But when teamfights come around, I just die and do no damage. I try to E + W and i just can't catch up to people. I can't do miss fortune things.

What I don't understand is I play twitch and I feel like I can harass / secure kills in lane easier with twitch as opposed to MF. When I lane against an MF they do things that make me say 'Wtf why can't I do that? D:'

My question is, what is it that makes certain people try to play a certain champ but just say 'I can't, I'm done'? What champions have you tried to play that are strong at that point in time in the meta but you left saying 'I give up on this champ.' Is it possible that some champs require play styles that are just in opposition to how some peoples brains work?

For me personally, I notice I'm just drawn to scaling champs. Champs I found myself wanting to play were Jinx, Nasus, Sion, AP Kogmaw (Rip my season 5 main D:), Ashe, Anivia, etc.

Discuss :D

You just ult in team fights. You wait for them to engage on someone then you press R. You don't want to chase people with MF. W move speed is an escape tool and so is E to an extent.

Positioning. That's the only thing I can think of. Something we can't really help with unless we can watch you play.

Or if your teams have been unlucky and the support isn't/doesn't peel.

My friend makes fun of me all the time because I always have a rough time playing xinxiao. I never had that issue jungling with him season 1 starting green potion(attackspeed+crit). As soon as they removed green elixer all my xincheese skill was removed with it i guess. I'm going to practice him in march though so we will see.

That's like me with Akali

The few times I tried playing her, I got outpoked and camped and only in one game did I manage to turn it around and carry

but I just had enough of it, every match I had to build defensively and it still wasn't enough

I just feel like every time I try something new or different I get slapped in the face but everyone else just wrecks with it

I don't get Ziggs. Trust me when I say I can be patient and learn a Champ to the point of Mastering them. Hec, I mastered both ap Luc and MF mid lane against the likes of Zed and yas.

I just don't get Ziggs and gave up.
