Hello guys ,

Feel free to laugh at my shitty recent games , i can't help but laugh at them myself , oh well :p . Anyway , i have been trying to main singed lately and whenever i'm in an unfavorable match up ( gnar , renek etc.. ) , i get pooped on . So i looked up some videos on youtube and i learned about the proxy method .. the thing is , i keep on feeding.. mainly because i get chased by the jungler+top laner and i dont surive that ( during the proxy farm ) Or just the lack of sustain i have , which i will get back to . i mean , all people recording the videos had no problem evading the ganks from the junglers or the rotations from the top laners . i think this is usually due to the vision in the early game . Back in season 5 ( or older seasons ) , you can buy wards and the flask which can really help you sustain during the proxy farming phase . But now , i usually lose 70% of my hp when i farm 2 waves also , i dont have any sort of vision ( just one ward per 60 seconds or so ) so i mostly end up dying and mostly giving the top laner/jungler a first blood .. Now back to the main question .. is proxy singed dead after season 6? or do i need more practice? Please give me tips if i need more practice

The summs i take :summoner 12 summoner 6 ---- The first item i buy is item 1027 and 3 pots i think . Sometimes i start with item 1056 and a pot .

sorry for the long post <3

its very lacking because of super mobility meta. where everything has gap closers and cc. theres just no real reason to pick singed, he doesn't offer as much as others.

There's no useless champion in this game imo. I just need to utilise his kit as much as i can . Hopefully riot will buff singed's speed or something

hes not useless, just highly specific. and its not that he doesn't offer something, but others offer more.

True . but i genuinely never had so much fun with a champ as much as i did with singed even if was feeding 80% of the time :-3

Part of playing Singed is learning when to proxy and against which opponents. You usually don't want to proxy until you have item 3009 and your summoner 6 up so you can outrun the jung and top when they come to stop you. One of the main benefits of the proxy method is to draw the enemy team top so the rest of your team has a numbers advantage bot to get objectives like Dragons and towers. However, most teams are too stupid to take advantage of this. It is also good to proxy if you are facing an opponent who has trouble last hitting under tower.

But then i wont be able to farm properly at the first 4 levels or so which will be disastrous .i mean , gnar will be obviously ahead by like 25 cs or so.

That's why it's a smart idea not to blind pick Singed. Even so, he usually outscales his counters.

If it wasn't because almost every freaking champion counters Singed ... He needs either more starting armor, better in built sustain or way to reduce the poke he gets.

If you get a ranged matchup, your best chance of not feeding is abandoning lane to proxy or just staying at the fountain.

(BTW, if you get low on hp, try getting executed by tower)

item 1056 is bad on singed, if you must get one of those items, get item 1082
