Riot, What Is Wrong With Your Damn Game?

GodlyBane··1 votes·335 views

I have performed well in all but 2 games today (6 games) and lost all of them even when my team and I start doing better, everyone starts panicking, we get aced, we loose the game. This is honest bs. My winrates, mmr, and etc will go down, oh dont forget the LP loss. Im starting to wonder if Riot really does allow us to have fun. Because when you face a busted champion like TahmKench that can replenish his health bar and replace it with a shield for over 5 seconds, (which is basically a Tryndamere ultimate because it makes him unkillable) and i honestly think that its not fair. Not to mention TahmKench has amazing starting stats. He had 100 mroe hp then me, more armor then me, more mr, more damage. Just because a champion isnt meta DOESNT mean they're balanced. Tahms passive and his W are too much to handle. Not to mention the fact that he can end up doing more damage then an AP mage on a team in a single game. his W and passive are completely stupid abilities. Did i forget to mention Illaoi 's ultimate? oh yes, The legendary "1v9 ultimate". Along with deaths dance, this ultimate can destroy anyone standing in it, it is un-dodgable, and it can 2 shot, ANYTHING.

Now the real problem: giving me silver players with a b3 mmr, while mine is around bronze 1 - silver 4 mmr. Its like Riot purposly doesnt want players to get into certain ranks. Its not like everyone is constantly having a bad game, right? These kinds of things are truly, truly tilit worthy. Not to mention the fact that im always the one who convinces people to win instead of taking Baron Nashor, Im always the one split pushing my lane, im always telling people to take drake, im alwa- the list just goes on, and on, and on.

I do everything, even when i shape braindead teams up, we start winning until i die, everyone panicks or does something stupid, its either "oh no we lost the tank, what do we do!" Then they die, and throw. or its either "we lost the tank? whatever, i can 1v3 even though im 3/4/7". There are constantly players who cant decide, or know what on earth they are doing. Please Riot, just put me in my mmr level, and no OP.gg isnt accurate with mmr, it just gives the approximate mmr.

I hope 99.9% of everyone here can agree that this current matchmaking system is total bs. and if u want to know my games, my pc wont post the pic, so ill just say it here

Good Games: Shen: 7/8/8 Shen: 8/7/11 Talon 18/8/8 Yasuo: 18/9/5

Bad Games: Draven: 1/5/3 Yasuo: 5/9/5

I lost ALL OF THESE today. Just take that in.

I dont see Shen as a top pick, he needs so much to get off the ground in terms of damage atm, and they put a bandage on his nerfed ult value by making it scale with the target's missing HP but Im not fooled

shen is one of the best top laners now, its mostly an easy lane, he does absoulutly amazing against teemo, etc. He us extremely viable

He does well vs teemo? I thought teemo's blind countered him since if he times it right he counter your taunt with it. I know shen is great into aa reliant champions and he's decent vs tanks due to his max hp dmg q.

I'm just going to say that the matchmaking from my experience is really dumb. The game is also extremely team oriented. Also, if you want to climb, I think shen isn't really good for solo que. He requires too much team coordination (especially in low elo). Good luck in solo que and try not to let it get to you :).

idk i mostly win lane with shen and do good bot tp's so i mean maybe u are right with the team coordination, but have any suggetsions for champs? i have done Red Kayn solo carry, but it stopped working at bronze 1, and shen which, was 100% winrate for the past 4 games, but stopped.

For low elo, pick champs who has damage I think. I don't know what the current meta is in silver but champs like jax, kled, jayce, teemo are decent (jax less since he's reliant on who the champ he is laning against is, and kled I honestly have seen him but I think he's decent). Jayce is just op and so is teemo. Tanks usually rely more on your team so it is harder to carry with them. The only real way to carry your entire team from early game is by using tp plays which can be harder since people will sometimes not react to it (happens in high elo too tbh). I don't have much experience with playing with or against kayne if you are talking about top lane kayne, but I think his kit isn't as good at top lane as some other champions are. Illaoi is also pretty decent, I believe her effectiveness falls off at higher ranks but she's in a pretty good spot with klepto and does a ton of dmg.

Tahm is actually designed to deal some form of damage. And his items can heavily skew damage numbers. Having a Thornmail against a team of three auto attackers (Shen, Varus and Jarvan), means that he's going to be dealing large amounts of reflect damage. And having Sunfire Cape achieves the same effect as the burn damage on multiple targets adds up. I've had games of Nautilus top where I've had the most damage in the game simply because I stood in the middle of a team fight and passively did small amounts of damage with Sunfire.

Did i forget to mention Illaoi 's ultimate? oh yes, The legendary "1v9 ultimate". Along with deaths dance, this ultimate can destroy anyone standing in it, it is un-dodgable, and it can 2 shot, ANYTHING.

There's a reason why Illaoi isn't seen in higher elo games. She's utterly useless. First of all her ultimate requires her to be in the middle of a fight (which leaves her open to being kited and/or killed). Secondly, she has no way of keeping you in her ult. All you have to do is disengage and CC her. The ultimate by itself does pitiful damage. The damage actually comes from her W having a shortened cooldown, which means that her tentacles will be swinging more often.

There is one constant in your games. Yourself. Try analysing your own games and seeing where you went wrong and improving yourself. I found that's the best way for me to get better. I climbed from the depths of bronze 2 (after a long loss streak) to 1 (not that impressive, I know) by watching my own games, seeing where I went wrong and improving my own play (especially in the support role).

Good Games: Shen: 7/8/8 Shen: 8/7/11 Talon 18/8/8 Yasuo: 18/9/5

Bad Games: Draven: 1/5/3 Yasuo: 5/9/5

I lost ALL OF THESE today. Just take that in.

KDA isn't everything. I've had games where I got fed out of my arse and didn't win simply because I couldn't press the advantage I had.

We're in the exact same elo bracket (albeit in different regions). In a lot of your games, you're heavily behind in CS. Try itemising into less damage and more into items that can protect your team like Locket of the Iron Solari or Knight's Vow.

Anyway, Shen isn't a great pick for solo queue as he relies heavily on team coordination (which rarely occurs there).
