PvP question

ok, lol, I am level 17. Been playing exclusively bots for the last 3 week which is my only experience in league of legends. Beginners bots are so easy now it is not funny. Intermediate bots which I started playing is a challenge. My main players are Zyra and Corki. I am working hard to get my first kill timing down.

Now, I played a pvp game yesterday and failed miserably. I was ganked so many times it is not funny ... I ended up in my bottom lane all by myself and with Zyra I did not know what to do. She really does not have many good escape tools against 2 or 3 other players.

Anyway, long story short, would it make sense to go back and create a new account and at level 3 or 5 just start playing pvp? People seem to take things a lot more seriously in pvp games and I don't want to wreck anyones stats because of me.

Thoughts? I love playing but I need to get my skills up without upsetting a lot of people.

Bots and PvP are really on a different level. Bots will do what normal players wouldn't so really, only thing you learn in bots that you should keep, are champion mechanics. Forget everything else.

As for getting better overall, one thing that helped me was watching streams.

And besides, we all started at the bottom of the food chain at some point. Just ignore those that get mad.

I agree with Kira on this one, bot matches are for practicing new champions for beginners like yourself and PvP is where you would have to practice fighting against other players in which you can further hone your skills with other champions, its just time and practice.

Don't bother, just keep playing pvp you'll catch on sooner or later. Anyone who cares about their normals stats enough to rage at you (especially pre-30) is not worth listening to, so just select ignore from the scoreboard.

Dude, just play for the sake of yourself. You're learning the game, mute whoever is criticizing you. When I started playing, I never played against bots.. Bots will always be Bots. I advise you to watch and read guides.

The kicker too was that I played purple and have never did that before. It just compounded my problems lol... when Zyra died I kept wanting to shoot the other way.

Still lots to learn. btw, where is the best place to connect and find other people that will give constructive criticism, I know I suck, but i like to know why so I can improve and not just be told I am bad....
