I am quitting

WolfManSwag··2 votes·523 views

I am hanging up my summoning circle, at least for a while and perhaps for good. I own about 75% of the champions i only feel comfortable playing 10 champions. Even when i try to learn a new champ i usually get "rekt" since i don't know how to match up against my opponent. And then of course i get trolled by my team for losing my lane. I don't consider it feeding because i try not to let it get out of control. if i am 0-2 in my lane i just babysit the tower. which isn't even a great option since my opponent can now free farm and i have to just get what cs i can under tower. Snowballing is out of control. how am i suppose to learn when a fed top or mid roams and is 4 levels above me and can ez kill me with a combo of skills without even using an ult WHILE i'm under the tower. Then icing on the cake is i check my death recap to see how the heck he get me so fast to only be told revive (which isn't even in the game anymore and doesn't do dmg) did 200 dmg to me and somehow i did 250 dmg to myself, i understand thornmail, fiora riposte, rammus curl, etc. but this was not the case. and the rest of the dmg from the actual opponent doesn't even add up to my life. Fix the death recaps and until they just remove them, they are only there to infuriate you apparently since they provide no actual useful information, just a taunting na na na boo boo you'll never know what killed you. Unless of course death recaps are accurate and its the dmg getting thrown around thats glitchy, which is a scary thought of unfairness. Its a shame that the best times i had in this game, were leveling up and like the first month i hit 30. The game has been getting less and less fun ever since.

I genuinely wish you the best in your effort to quit. Video games are addictive and I hope your life ends up better for quitting.

all games feel great when you start them and then look back on that childish feeling that you got when you first started and how fun it was... I wish it was always that way.

This is what I got from the post -Op Is bad at video game. -Blames video game for him being bad. -Makes bs excuse about why he wants to quit (really death recaps? LOL who cares. Watch the game and you know what killed you.) -Refuses to get better so he wants to "quit".

Tldr ~ See ya next week!

Then you didnt understand the post. I complained about snowballing being out of control and not being able to try unfamiliar champs mostly. death recaps were more of a footnote of icing on the cake. And as far as my skill in the game, you making an ignorant opinion since i dont know and most like have never played with you. and your tldr doesnt make sense since you caught what i said in the beginning and the end? so you obviously read the whole thing

-You complained about dying and losing lane. (This is why I inferred you were bad.) -You are unable to comprehend or research how a champion should be play and use that knowledge to play a champion competently. (This is where you confirmed to me that you were bad.) -You complained that your were 4 levels below the enemy. (This should never happen, unless you are playing incorrectly and focusing on kills instead of farming your lane for gold/xp, reasserting the fact that you are playing inefficiently, aka Bad.) -You are choosing to play PvP games to learn your new champs and then complain that you don't know the champ well enough to beat other players. (This is arrogant, or ignorant. Either works in this case, I can't really come to a conclusion on this one.) -By your comments about the games you've been in I can infer if you are good or bad at the game compared to the people who you are being matched with and the situations your encountering. In this case, bad. -The tldr was for my post, not yours. That wouldn't make sense.

Anyways thanks for occupying my lunch time! GG

You never died or lost a lane? being 4 levels below can happen easily if one lane is feeding and you are in a good matchup and scaring each other to less than ideal cs You cannot learn how to PVP against bots, you just cant, so where do you learn. And as for the rest, you are making a very broad statement on very little information. 'inferring my skill level based on people im being matched with and my situations i encounter, I did not realize i had a secret admirer that would spectate my games to aquire such information. However, I can infer that you make snap and uniformed judgement on people. which leads us to believe that you must be arrogant or ignorant. And very possibly both

-I have never died/lost a lane so consistently to feel the need to bitch on the forums about it. So..... not to your scale apparently. -Xp doesn't come with cs. It comes with standing in range of minions dying. It's fairly hard (unless you feed or are making bad decisions, being punished and then forced to back consistently) to be 4 levels below anyone. Kills don't give THAT much xp. Unless you are a duo lane. But levels aren't a big issue for adc's/supports, their is a reason they are the duo, the adc just wants gold.

  • I never said you could learn to be a pro in PvP against bots. I did say you could be a decent player and learn the basic fundamentals of a champion (ranges/obscure ability details/mana cost/cooldowns/power spikes/how to farm effectively). So yes, you can learn in bots, it's actually what a lot of high level players suggest for learning how to cs extremely efficiently.
  • You are telling me all the information I need. Are you saying your exaggerating your games and that this isn't how a majority of your matches turn out? Because your implying they do. If they don't.... then why are you complaining again? YOU are my source of information on YOUR games. If YOU are incorrect, that isn't my fault.
  • I believe I explained how I have been informed. I did make a snap decision, because this is the forums, I am not writing a thesis. I am giving you my cold hard and instant opinion. Sorry if that dissatisfies you.

Tldr~ Your not as good as you think. Oh... and See ya next week!

You can be 4 levels below as a struggling (not feeding) bot laner against a fed top/mid.

And (really death recaps? LOL who cares. Watch the game and you know what killed you.) shows how little attention you pay to the game itself. In hectic teamfights you sometimes can't even tell who is hitting you. Death recaps tend to be useless. They can tell you about the 10% from 2 turret shots, the 5% from the Alistar who put you there, the 10% from the Teemo Q that KSd the Tristana who was pounding on you for 5 seconds and wasn't even in the recap.

Ok, true about the adc/supp. But your not really dependent on levels as adc or support. (It's normal to be 1-2 levels lower for a majority of the game) so that wouldn't be as big of a deal. You will have had to lose quite a bit of exp from your waves though and your opponent would have to be zoning/harassing you fairly hard to allow that. But it is possible, so I will give you that point.

Your second point though.... what? Lol I think you got this backwards. I believe that you would have to be paying more attention to the game to be able to tell where you take damage from and what is happening. My point was literally that if you rely on death recap then you aren't paying attention. Then you told me that I don't pay attention enough and that if I paid more attention death recap would be more beneficial? The problem with that is obvious.... If I'm paying attention I can tell how I died. If I'm not, I can't. When playing the game I can tell what did the most damage to me, who did damage to me and what type of prevention (MR/Armor/Health/Zhonyas/Qss and etc) that I need to stop it from happening again. (Or that fight told me nothing, ALA 1v5 fight I got roflstomped ganked hard) I do not NEED death recap to tell me what my threats are. I see the bullets, the spells and the champions attacking. I see their items, my items and my champion to know what I am protecting myself from.

(In case you misunderstood me, totally understandable, I was NOT saying that death recaps aren't fucked up. I know they are. I just think it's a shitty reason to quit a game, when they are of very small importance.

Snowballing is not out of control if you understand how to play correctly. Plenty of options to win the game later.

Sounds like you don't research the champs you want to play, or attempt to practice them in PvE before getting facerolled. That's your bad.

Death recaps are actually pretty decent now... If you can't press tab and look at who's fed out of the people that killed you, that's just ignorant.

The game will probably be better without you. Less QQ, less ignorant players on my team. Sorry to be mean, but if you think anyone cares that you're leaving after posting that, you've gotta be kidding. We're overjoyed.

Going 21-0 in a pve match gives no 'practice' for a pvp setting. I know no one cares i am leaving, I thought some people may care about the in-game issues that i had problems with. Death recaps are very far from decent, pressing tab to see who is fed? not sure why you even said that. Thanks for trolling

Post 30. I actually understand the game to an extent now as opposed to back when I used to stack 6 item 3101 Stingers on Malphite for waveclear.

Do research. You are learning something new, you expect to do well against someone who might be playing their main?

Snowballing is only out of ocntrol against poorly built team comps. You don't have the CC for the 5-0 Fiora at 10 mins? Gg, next time get some good CC. And if she DOES get that fed thats just a bad teammate, those happen (a lot ;-;)

I'll give you the death recap. Recaps are horrible and need to be fixed, but they keep getting put off for the gameplay issues. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE GAMEPLAY ISSUES! FIX THE RECAP NOW AND ITS ONE LESS THING TO DO!

pre-30 was much more forgiving, people didnt really care that much what you build because everyone was learning the game. Now a days because of Smurfs people just assume everyone is good at this game or is much easier to learn despite the fact everyone learns things differently.
