Need A Mentor

RUMBLER J·Jun 6, 2015·1 votes·647 views

Ok, here's the deal. Things haven't been going my way. I have way more losses than wins. I have way more deaths than kills. I have a low win rate. And I hate to admit it, I mean REALLY hate to admit, but I'm... unskilled. There, I said it. Luck have nothing to do with it. My skills are absolutely sloppy.

I should be so angry, I could go on a rampage and turn into a vicious, bloodthirsty werewolf, killing everything in sight..., but I didn't.

I should get so depressed and sad, that I could cry, sob, and wail uncontrollably and on the verge to give up on everything and commit suicide..., but I didn't.

I should get so out of control, I go completely insane and be put into a straightjacket and having a full frontal lobotomy in a mental hospital..., but I didn't.

What I should do is figuring out what I should do to improve myself. Which runes should I buy? Which masteries should I go for? What are the champs' purpose? What should I do to master the champs I already own?

So, I'm going to need a mentor, and I need your help. I want you to get me the best mentors you can find. They could be on Youtube, on Facebook, on Twitch, or whatever. I need some ways, any way, to improve my gameplay ASAP. It doesn't matter what way there is. I need every helpful hint, every tip, every bit of advice possible in the entire world.

Disclaimer: Don't worry. I promise I won't get the slightest bit mad, I promise I won't get sad and get all emotional, and I promise I will be as patient as possible. Thank you.

Hm...I may be Level 17, but I'll try and give all the advice I can. I tend to notice that most mistakes people make are very 'noob' mistakes; towerdiving at low health, not warding, etc. I don't know what champ you use, so I'll go for some general tips; -Identify the opponent. Are they AD? AP? A mix? Buy items to raise defense against their main attack stat. -Remember that you can force your opponents to get certain items. Enemy AD top? Choose a AP character, and watch as they can't towerdive effectively; Towers deal AD damage, and your opponent will be forced to build AP to survive your attacks. This is also good in case your Jungler comes in to gank. -Don't ping for your Jungler to come help you early game. They're not gonna do it, and they'll just label you a noob.

If you need more help, just ask; I'll gladly post anything else I've noticed.

How will I know when opponents use AP or AD champs? What are the signs?

Well, mages (Ryze Ryze , Veigar Veigar , LeBlanc Leblanc ) use AP. Basically, think of AP as Magic Power. Physical Champs, (Garen Garen , Yi MasterYi , Lee Sin LeeSin ), use AD. Remember that AD also affects the power of AA (auto attacks, your basic attack) And Towers also deal AD damage.

Some champs can scale off both AP and AD. Sion Sion , for example, is mainly an AD champ, but both his W and E are AP attacks. AP Sion is actually a fairly good build, since his W acts as an explosive shield.

The only advice I can give is get familiar with every champ. Test out every champion on free week to get a basic display of their skills, and possibly a new favorite to play. You can also check what your enemies are building using the scoreboard, I think, so you can tell what build they're going for.

I'm not qualified to play ranked because I don't have enough champs to own. I could use all the help I need.
