My Sister Wants to Play League?

69944531DEL1·11/24/2015, 1:03:19 PM·1 votes·1,159 views

My sister is 12, and I'm 14. I want to teach her as much as I can about league so she doesn't do bad and make people salty at her. She has slight rage issues with games, but I told her not to. I've slightly explained the lanes and roles, but she doesn't learn video games all that well. She says she likes ranged ones. I'm trying to figure out how to teach her. Do I spoonfeed stuff? Do I let her figure it out mostly on her own with just some basics? Do I throw her to the wolves and let her learn from scratch? Does it depend on how she learns? Please help ;-; So many sources saying that I should do this and that and I don't know WHAT to do ;-; I don't want people reporting her for feeding if she isn't good in full on people battles.

You got support, she goes adc's.

Laugh whenever she rages.

Laugh at the idiot smurfs who get salty that someone can't play when they are lvl 6 against a platinum with a new account.

If she likes the game she'll stay through it, if she doesn't meh. Just try to make it fun for her by you know, playing it like any other game and having fun.

So walk her through the basics, the tutorial, some bot games etc. Once she is comfortable with intermediate bots on a regular basis suggest a less tryhard mode (ARAM, Dominion, Legend of the Poro King next Patch).

If she wants to play real games with you, explain how MMR works and how this means she may be matched with people dramatically higher than her current skill level because of playing with you.

Beyond that, let her do her own thing and offer to help if she comes to you with frustrations.

GL to you and her in your future matches.

dont listen to these bronzers, for her to do good 1v1 her and teach her animation canceling, aa canceling, + combo with spells, kiting with ranged champs, and game sense/teamwork/patience, in a week she can do better than the filth below my comment.

You have to tailor your teaching style to the person. Is she self motivated or does she need help? Is she a gamer or a newbie? Does she pick new things up quick or does she need more guidance? All of these questions and more dictate how you should help her. You should also asks what SHE wants. Maybe she wants you to hold her hand and maybe she doesn't.

I suggest having her /mute all at the start of every game and just play coop vs ai for a while. If she has any rage issues, leagues occasionally very toxic community isn't something she'll want to deal with just yet. Have her stick with bot games for a while, then maybe move to arams or something.
