Being a Noob

Lyfeena·Oct 24, 2019·2 votes·1,706 views

We are known as noobs and trolls, the list goes on. People are super unhappy with the current LoL solo/duo ranking system. Being someone in the bronze II/III range I don't like it either. It isn't fun being called trolls or noobs or anything else! I know I'm not the best player and maybe, yeah my ass should have just stayed in blind matches; but even so we are players too. I just hope league can change their ranked systems. I don't want people to lose because their better than me. I don't want to be a drag in the game. People should not have to lose LP because the experience in the game is different. I love league the game, the characters, everything. But the system forcing people to hold hands isn't really working and in the end people are just getting hurt. I mean, what does a noob know about feelings?

You could try doing unranked. Or, you could try getting better. I feel guilty whenever i have a bad game and feed. but even if i lose, as long as I don't have many deaths I feel fine.

Ive been in blind matches for months now. in the end I feel there is no progress other than a S+ on a good day. If ranked wasn't about holding hands maybe we could actually be given challenges towards our levels and actually rise to a progressing game.

Not 100% certain what you mean by "holding hands" but if you're interested in a different mindset, playing a splitpushing top laner bypasses almost all of the need to work with your team. Some junglers can get away with that too.

Yes, I agree people can carry single handedly. My point is that people who just aren't at that level yet are getting blamed for well not being on their level. If ranked solo/duo was more based on experience then there would not be so much hate and toxicity. No one wants to lose because they fed.

Ah I get you. In that case, decide whether or not you like League. If it's too much stress, just find a different game. If you do like it, then stick it out in ranked. The "forced 50% winrate" meme is true to a degree. You'll eventually end up at the elo and skill level you actually play at.

Thanks Keiaga, My feeling towards League probably wont change for a while. I just wish league could at least tweek the matchmaking. I don't want others to down grade because of me, and the names for people like me are just crude. Thanks for the comments tho ^-^

if you ever feel like duoing go ahead and add me. I'm not too good either but i could probably give you some tips while we play some normals

I don't think its match making at all I just think the league community as a whole is complete garbage at the game. Clash should really be alot bigger IMO. It's the optimal way to play the game and the most fun way to play it too.

I had fun enough grinding unranked to unlock all the champs. After that, I attempted to climb in ranked. It was rough and stressful at first, but I'd say if you like the incentive for playing ranked league, just do it.

It's easier said than done, but if you can accept that struggling through ranked is the best way to improve, it makes it better. Its sucks to be the feeder on your team, but keep in mind pretty much everyone started where you were before they climbed.

I have been playing normals for 2 years and I started to play ranked after I was in silver 1 after promos in this season right now I am plat 4 so i think you should play draft and practice before play ranked

I've been playing for a few months now. Its just that if we unlock ranked so early which people can actually advance so quickly?

To play ranked, have 3 champs you play and NO MORE...don't be one of those guys with 70 champs played in solo Q where none was played more than 9 times.... So pick 3 champs and play the crap out of them. Learn to CS well and then know how to play against your opponents, which spell do you really need to dodge....for illaoi it's her pull...if you avoid that, go ham, if not back off and just cs.

I play only 3 characters hard to afford 70 XD. Working on my cs but sometimes it really pisses me of.

Well that's good, keep working on that, CS is the most important thing. Because it's reliable. Kills are unreliable because you may be the better player, you may not, but CS is always the same.
