I have a tip for you [Low elo players only]

ff4sk··2 votes·581 views

This is just from my experience and it sort of works if your team is capable of taking opportunities you give to them and if the enemy is dumb enough to take the bait. See what I've noticed playing in lower elo is that there's A LOT of premades with 1 player who generally does too well for the rank he's in and a bunch of shit players who were clearly carried by this player.

Being a jungler I get to roam around quite often and notice things such as how different lanes preform and how they react to aggression. See when you spot the high skilled player in a premade make sure to always avoid him, starve him of kills and just leave him isolated to farm away in a lane alone, thats step one.

Step two is finding the player being carried. Once you do start focusing them, and by that I mean make their life a living hell. Camp their lane, tp over and kill them, roam from mid and nab a kill off them, generally just keep harassing them until they tilt. That will usually throw the skilled player's focus on his lane/objective off and make him direct his attention on them or more importantly on you leaving a blind spot for the rest of your team to utilize on

This won't work if there's more than 1 skilled player in the premade or if your teammates are a bunch of idiots.

Good luck.[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Nice tips, being a jungler I must ask you, is there a way to take of the monster description ingame play so that while fighting in jungle that wont hinder me?

I'm not sure I know what you mean. Is it the stat thing that shows up on the top left side of the screen? or are you experiencing a bug ingame?

when ever you hover your mouse over a jungle monster a description of the monster comes up tell you the name of it like ancient crug, with other stuff beside it. I was wondering if you knew how to take that off of your screen while in game. so that when getting counter jungled and the big monster is next to you while fighting the description of the monster will block the fight. hindering me from not playing lock screen. not a bug.

ah, not really sure, don't have that happen to me(I never play locked screen) I suggest maybe asking riot's support about it or maybe make a suggestion to have it fixed so it's not limiting your abilities to jungle.

anyways, best of luck on getting it sorted dude, wish I could help you but I don't know much about it

This is basically the best advice for low ELO games in general (pre-made or not). Find the weak link and farm him like he is cs.

Just as a comparison consider the reactions of high-ELO (Diamond) players vs low ELO (Bronze) players to an intentional feeder who runs up mid-lane like a robot to die to the enemy (or the tower if no one is there to kill him):

low ELO players just sit in their lanes and fight whoever they are matched against high-ELO players group at 3 minutes in mid lane to farm the feeder.

Farming the weak-link is the best way to get fed. Getting fed is the best way to win games.

Trying to fight the strong link in the enemy team is like painting a big sign on your face that says, "Eat me; I am food."

Pretty much. Work smart, not hard.

He's actually right 6/7 of my last SOLO RANKED games I've been teamed with. Premade 4man group of all absurdly awful players and only once out of every 3 or 4 I can carry. Gg dynamic q. Us solo guys get the shadt

Nice tip I especially like the "this will work in low elo" part. My favorite alongside Tue note of: "this may not work in low elo".

No plan is 100% guaranteed to work but this has been my plan lately and it seems to work a lot more than trying to take on the high skilled player head on. Work smart, not hard. If I can get an easy win by using tactics over skill I'm gonna abuse the tactic and make premade lives hell.

The funny thing is that when this plan fails to work it is often because the enemy team was able to use this plan better than you.

"This won't work if there's more than 1 skilled player in the premade or if your teammates are a bunch of idiots."

So what you're saying is that this is the dream, but it never works. [slayer-pantheon-popcorn]

It worked a few times for me and I was able to capture the attention of the enemy team and spent most of the time splitpushing, juking, and having them chase me around while my team applies pressure on other lanes and captured objectives while the enemy was chasing a 50% health shaco around their own jungle.

It doesn't always work I'll give you that but when it does it's insanely effective even if your teammates aren't the sharpest it benefits them greatly
