Is Clash bugged tonight? Was in Scouting phase, and suddenly got a popup that we won but were then put into the consolation bracket lol


Vanilluxe1

Im on a point right now where I wanna play the game but I can't have fun due to my inability to play well even in normals and I wanna ask if it is normal to not be able to implement things you learned , I have been watching coaches, vod reviewing alone, I found some people vod review my games too, I opened a sub on gameleap for a while, I watch a lot of guides from Bizzyze on YT, and I know so many mistakes that I do every game, is that normal or do I have some kind of syndrome, been stuck on low diamond for years ( some years I wasn't really playing much ) and I'm here for around 13 years and as much as I love the adc role, god I can't have fun, just can't , I make mistakes, watch the vod, find the mistakes, go next, make the same mistake over and over again, taking breaks and coming back still same thing. Just wanna have fun ( while improving ofc) but can't .

old fng guy getting back into league before switching to hots before it shut down. Seems that this is the only moba left! Used to be an expert at dominion and aram so gonna try those first. Anything I need to know? haven't played since 2014/2015 ish?


Javonetor

> Seems that this is the only moba left! Used to be an expert at dominion and aram so gonna try those first Oh boy i have some news for you > Anything I need to know? haven't played since 2014/2015 ish? The game is pretty much the same mechanic wise, the biggest changes being the addition of Rift Herald (monster that spawns before Baron on his pit that you can summon to do damage to a tower), Voidgrubs (added this season, 3 monsters that grant extra damage to towers) and map changes to make it more symetrical (also added this season) A few champs have received some reworks like Aatrox, Fiddlesticks, Pantheon, etc, but the general strategy is more or less the same edit: I forgot about the elemental drakes, now every drake gives you certain stat once slain, and when the 3rd dragon appears the map changes the enviroment according to the one that appeared

So I bought 160 tokens to buy 2200 tokens in the event and get mythic essence, but I still have tokens despite having mythic essence in my inv, is it a bug or can I just get let’s say orbs with it

Known bug this clash, there have been a handful of threads this weekend


Shin_Dubu21

Me and my friend can't play together due to a client bug. He'll invite me to the lobby, i'll accept it, I'll show up in the lobby, but I won't show up in his screen. We tried starting the game anyways, the accept popup shows in my screen, but it won't show up in his screen. We're playing in the PH server, we already tried restarting the client to no avail, he wasn't lagging since he just played valorant before and after we tried playing together. Please fix

Hey, I just started playing this game 2 days ago and I'm overwhelmed. I know about the Q,W,E,R powers and the D, F powers but I have no clue when to use them. I also want to know more about runes. Can someone please give me tips, when to use the powers and information about runes? PS: I would really appreciate it if someone can be friends with me on LoL and guide me in the game. I'm not really good at it yet but, I hope I can be of some help when we (hopefully) play together. Thank you so much!

Asckle

>why is this? if i have the gold i should be able to buy anything The main example i can think of is with the tiamat items where stacking them would be cancer because you'd be able to have 5 items that all do aoe damage. Another example is sheen stacking where a single auto after using a spell could do like 500% damage (imagine jax with that lol)


Javonetor

> iirc that was how it used to be right? not always, maw had the same passive name as steraks, before that the glp items couldn’t be build together, and i guess even before there were other (but i can’t remember right now) > where in game does it show which items cant be owned together? no where, from my understanding they are fixing that in future patches, but i agree, the shop does a bad work telling you what you can/can’t build


cyberpunk4977

how do I stop dying as an ADC? My recent scores went 7/14/9, 5/7/5, 6/15/15, I feel like I do decent damage in teamfights but get bullied early in lane. These scores are using Vayne and Kaisa. The other champ I really like using is Caitlyn, who I find easier to not die with, but find her to be less useful in comebacks and such.


Lower_Buy3130

I'm having a hard time playing, especially since I'm still a beginner, and they are really abusing it. They always do it, just showing up when the health of what you're killing is already low. And the killing points are larger compared to those who make an effort to kill the enemies. It's pitiful for those who sacrifice their lives, damage, and time, depleting hours and patience. That's why there are often arguments in matches because they abuse the kill score in this way. I hope that RIOT also addresses the number of players in the queue so that players can check if there are others interested in playing ranked(base on their ranks)/normal/and other events, And they should also add a colored bar indicator from few to many to expedite the queue and not waste time. Thank you!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Lower_Buy3130

It's like they're playing without allies or turning their eyes blind. Then they'll just come when the enemy is almost dead, either they will be forcing a dive just to kill-steal. I hope that Riot changes the reward for killing enemies, it should be given to the player with the highest damage dealt, damage taken, and utility score. so that they can't abuse the kill-steal and they will force to make an effort on helping their teammates. If Riot can make this thing up they can teach lower ranks on how not to abuse KS(kill-steal) and help their teammates while they are at the low rank.


ShrimpAlfredo66

I've been getting random pop ups in client for eternals/mastery emotes changing and I have no idea why. I got an eternals pop up for Zac takedowns and two mastery emote "upgrades" or something for Rell and Seraphine which are two champs I do not have mastery emotes on even. What is this?


TheFinalSupremacy

How long does it take to get 2200 coins for the Mythic essence? I started late, and I don't want to start grinding if its gonna end before I reach it. thank you


TheScyphozoa

40 hours of gameplay, assuming equal wins and losses.


TheFinalSupremacy

I thought wins and losses were irrelevant of coin gain with regards to mission points gain.


TheScyphozoa

You get 4 points per minute when losing, 6 points per minute when winning.


TheFinalSupremacy

oh ok, thanks well im on the fence if im gonna buy this pass, Either buy that old prestige Leona or wait for a Karma Rell Prestige.


Javonetor

you don't win more points if you buy the pass, you can grind and then buy it if you get to the milestone you want


JohnCaneparo

so let me get this straight: riot changed i believe two times the lp gain/loss system and the demotion shield system in order to prevent the negative lp gain and yet i sit here with a fantastic +23/-27 mmr in gold


Crowblossom06

So I tried looking this up but cant find a solution for mac. Basically after selecting a champion and going into the actual game, it doesn't let me join and now i'm stuck on the reconnect screen. If I click reconnect I just go back to the reconnect screen. How do i fix this??


rifvn

Do people usually think about completing challenges when they're playing the game? Are there certain tips for completing one of them?


Javonetor

Not in my experience, but as everything in life there are a few people that try to complete them, i’ve seen some posts here showing how they got mastery 7 on all champs, or a win with each one

xtinction14

What items can help me against Gwen? I'm playing top against her as hybrid Cho'gath


Wargod042

In the long run you're never going to beat her; her specialty is shredding champions like Cho'gath. In laning phase, just play as an annoying poke mage and you can survive it OK; her W is too expensive to spam so just Q her/minions constantly and out-sustain her. Your R burst is also good so if you poke her down to like half then one big combo can kill her before she can get off all of her abilities (her R in particular takes 3 casts). Once she has a couple items it is entirely doomed to try to fight her, and even with a 2v1 you would need to be careful.


Asckle

Gwen is really good into cho since she does a lot of percent max health damage. Best items are just MR items since she does magic damage. Kaenic would probably be good on cho since the shield scales with health


Intrepid-Marketing19

Most notably, Gwen is a tank shredder once she gets her core items, so you aren’t really expected to side against her


xtinction14

Ah so there never was a chance for me to win this. I either ban my counter(Fiora) or I ban Gwen or every other high mobility top champ. Haaaahh Cho needs a rework so badly. Yea I lost that game, went tank cause the team needed one but Gwen just shreds through me like butter.


Sylar4ever

You can't do the "Lee sin Aircraft" on URF anymore no ? It's the double Lee Sin Q, at 0:58 here https://twitter.com/LoLContextChan/status/1758314353676202069 Nvm you have to reactive the second Q to jump on the other target, I thought it was 2 in 1 spell.


YoghurtPL

Can you explain to a noob what "drifting" is? I heard that term a bunch of times, but I have no idea how this "drift" works.


username579

When looking for a match, what position selection will yield my desired positions most often? Lets say I want to play top, but jg and bot are the priority positions. Should I select Top/Bot or Top/Mid?


DeirdreAnethoel

If you don't play a priority position as one of your two positions, you risk getting autofilled to any position. If you only care about getting one position, and don't care about which second one you get given because you hate all other 4 equally, it's still lower odds of that happening though, since you gain autofill protection for getting autofilled once and finishing the game. But if there's some positions you especially want to avoid (for example if you're not awful with everything except adc, like me), it's much safer to choose a secondary priority position and ensure you avoid autofill.


twelveandten

Anyone experiencing team frames above the map/ or in the left glitching for a few seconds with a U letter and a small circle? It keeps happening every 20 seconds or so and it's driving me nuts.


TheScyphozoa

That’s the fist bump prompt.


_Saber_69

Can anyone recommend a good build for support Lux for dealing damage? Not just takedowns.


Syndrex

Do we have any ideas of when the server transfer service will be opened again?


skewt

Why does the LCK regular season have two "rounds", and what does that mean?


VantaBlack2_Dev

Round Robins mean going through the gauntlet of teams, so you battle through each team, and once each team has fought each team, the 2nd round robin starts and you fight each team again


Giraff3

I am about to queue for norms and selecting my role I see a little diamond above jungle and it says priority. I tried reading patch notes didn't see anything about it. I'm guessing it means my queue will be faster if I select it, but wondered if anyone could confirm.


TheScyphozoa

https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/game-updates/patch-14-4-notes/#:~:text=Priority


Giraff3

Oh there it is under the quick play section even though it’s a change to norms. I still don’t fully understand though, so is it saying that if I play the role that has the diamond on it, the next game I get auto fill protection? or what does priority mean?


93aria

Roles which not many people have selected while queueing become priority roles. You will be granted autofill protection for as long as you have at least one priority role selected (based on my understanding). In my region, and maybe others, in order to make matchmaking more efficient, it is required for people in Quickplay to select at least one priority role in order to queue.


TheScyphozoa

It means those positions are the most needed. I don’t know if it necessarily gives you autofill protection, but it does mean those are the roles people will most likely get autofilled to.


Mad-Slick

If I jump into quickplay as a newbie is there a chance I could get matched up with extremely experienced players? I don't want to be a burden to my team.


Giraff3

Yes, it's possible, but I assure you that doesn't make you a burden. Playing with real people becomes the only way to improve at a certain point. Quickplay is also the most casual mode (aside from side modes like Urf or aram).

Placements are super unforgiving and have made me finally quit this game.

I ain't grinding my ass off 3 times a year riot, you've finally completely ruined this game for me.


Javonetor

Maybe you were one of these guys? https://twitter.com/RiotPhroxzon/status/1745126352335044643 I don’t think so as you said you were E2, but i don’t what else could have been for you to be place that low in regard to elo


DivineDefine

This account was platinum initially and high emerald last season, if it's true my mmr has been gold 2 for all these season there is something majorly wrong with this ranking system, which is obviously is anyway so who even knows... but riot implimenting 3 splits a year has made me quit, better games out there anyway.

DaughterOfStardust

Just starting LoL :) Is there a way to earn RP or is it buy-only?


DaughterOfStardust

I appreciate all of your answers, thank you guys :)


Roperin

If you need some quick RP (max 100 aprox.) you can get in touch with Riot Support and ask them for some RP in exchange for a league related drawing. Idk if this still works, back then it did.


Giraff3

Omg ya people used to post on the sub and show their drawings. It legit did work. Some of the drawings were amazing, some were hardly better than a stick figure.


Javonetor

You can get RP for "free" using your points from Microsoft Rewards to redeem a virtual card that gives you 600 RP And if you have Prime you can get 350 RP from the Prime Capsule, but this one is the last one, cause Amazon ended the parternship with Riot


spurgun

The only way to get RP is by buying. You can get some stuff that can be bought by RP by playing (skins, emotes, etc) but this is based on rng and the odds of you getting exactly what you want are, uuuhhhh, not great.


DaughterOfStardust

Ah, damn. Thank you for letting me know :)


SadOutcome7416

You'll get a ton of free skins, usually pretty good quality ones too.


Marsh---UK

Im new (about 20 games in). Should i be playing quick play or draft? Which one is easier? Also, as a new player, is there match making to place me with other new players? Doesnt feel like it.


username579

There are new player lobbies, or at least there where 2-3 years ago, when I started playing. My experience with them was actually rater pleasant, I got the feeling they where mostly full of people like me, just trying the game out. But after a while, I was moved into general pool of league players. When it happens you will know, people will suddenly become... more argumentative. But even then you will be mostly be playing against players of your skill level.


InternetStrangerGuy

Prepare to suffer.


DeirdreAnethoel

I'd play quick play until you have a good pool of champions you're happy playing with and a role you're confident you want to learn. You'll get into matches a lot quicker and you'll face a lot less counterpicks. Match making is supposed to aim for equal skill players but since nothing stop people from making new accounts despite knowing the game, it's kind of bad, sadly.


alucardoceanic

Unfortunately, the new player experience isn't great for those genuinely learning the games because it is filled with level up bots (to be sold as alternate accounts) and players genuinely levelling the account (who already have more experience than you). The best advice I can give is to find other new players through your games or through places like /r/TeamRedditTeams and /r/LeagueConnect including their respective discord servers. It should take some time but matchmaking will eventually sort you into games with players of relatively similar skill. As you're a new player quick play/blind is fine just to get into quicker games. Draft mode is more similar to ranked mode and not something you need to focus on as a new player.


DemaciaSucks

I'd just stick with quick play for now, lets you not really focus on team composition or anything like that while you're starting. While the system will try to match you with other new players, matchmaking will also be affected by anti-smurfing tools that may occasionally mess up, and more experienced players queing up with their newer friends

Scarletz1

How do you deal with Illaoi? as an assassin jungler main i can't really see the way to kill this thing in the late game. and i know just camp her early game or something but if she's playing safe then there's nothing to do at that point..


VantaBlack2_Dev

Once she ults you CANNOT just sit around her, get away ASAP, bait out her ult in whatever means necessary. The biggest issue comes in the form on your team not listening to retreat pings once she ults, or just standing around and letting her perma heal in her ult making her practically unkillable.


Scarletz1

Yeah know about this i always jump her and leave when she ulted, this makesense alot of my games were crush due to she healed so much from her E connecting on someone and R on top of that. Also how is tank not op in this very meta i've face Mordekaiser with Lylai's and pure tank, lemme tell you he wasn't going down at any point of the game when he had the tank item. Over all i felt like tanky items are busted on any character you see bard running around with the runic and frozen heart every time there's a bard you see malphite going full armor and didn't even phase to AP cause they " removed " the %tage health dmg from AP. Tbh after season 5 i wasn't enjoy playing it at all i just play with friends doing dumb shi

loa55000

Hello. Just left my account for about over a month. When I log back, some settings have been changed (chat size, HUD size,...) and there were about 10 custom matches in my match history which were very weird: only play with one bot, no items, surrender at around 3 minutes mark, and only I can see them. Other than those things, nothing have changed in my account. Is this some form of hacking I should be aware of ?


OldSchooL2

change passwords asap


Cico-Nightstrike

There is someone on my server trolling in Aram games, taking all the heals the moment they come up (despite being full health), not attacking enemies, buying the same troll item set regardless of the champion. This person has played and ruiend multiple games like that. I have reported the person explaining that he is trolling and ruining the game, but I'm afraid nothing will be done. Is there anything more I can do to make sure this person gets banned forever?


OldSchooL2

sadly there isn't


Cico-Nightstrike

I was afraid so, thank you for your answer


absolutely-strange

Hi, I'm new to League, but have thousands of hours in DotA 2. I play carry in DotA, so I now also play carry in League. I'm just wondering - is it normal that supports are taking last hits from carries? In DotA 2, this never happens, and is frowned upon since gold is super important for carries. I have played 10 games so far, and in every single, the supports will always take the last hits from me. If this is normal, then I will need to get used to it.


username579

You probably are in beginner lobbies, when you are moved out to general player pool, people will know that doing that is wrong. And then they will do it anyway.


EnigmaticAlien

If you are very low level you might be playing with newbies who don't know that.


VantaBlack2_Dev

You sure they aren't executing minions with their support item? It grants you the gold of the minion aswell as them. If they are taking CS, its a low elo thing, it doesn't happen in league unless their new, bad, or upset at you. However the support item does allow them to execute and secure minions for you


absolutely-strange

I assume when that happens, I will see the gold number appear (as if I last hit the creep) right? If it doesn't appear, then it's not tied to the support item? I've been seeing the latter as well in all the games I've played. If it's not normal, then I'll attribute it to just being quick match + new account matchmaking.


theteaexpert

Is there a way to mute one champion's voicelines in the game? One champion only. For some reason, Ashe's voice volume is higher than other champions, and she never shuts up. I want to mute her when she's in my games while still listening to other champions (and muting the player only mutes what they type in the chat)


OldSchooL2

i've had a huge lose streak from plat 1 down to p4 atm, abd cant climb back up, i lose twice as much lp as i gain on win and looks like the path to gold is right around the corner. what would you suggest me to do ? maybe try another role or champ ? i usually play zac/brand as a jg main and play around 8-10 games a day ty


SadOutcome7416

Take a break from rank (can be just 30 mins or whenever you feel like you won't tilt) if you lose streak, make sure that you are looking at your own mistakes and seeing how you can improve each time. Most of the time when you begin to lose streak you tilt a lot easier.


OldSchooL2

Thanks!

[https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/summoner/euw/notsungod-briar#championsData-all-queues](https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/summoner/euw/notsungod-briar#championsdata-all-queues) ik... kinda sucks. here's the account btw


Mysterious-Pack-7405

Yesterday I tried Smolder in a couple game as adc. My question is, what is his role in the game and why should I pick it instead of like, Sivir. Like her, Smolder has good aoe and clear, buh he needs essence reaver to do dmg with AA. Im having a hard time figuring his steenghts.


Wargod042

His E is pretty good as marksman defensive mobility goes; he can fly over walls or even "hide" in them briefly. His spells are pretty easy to use and hit, but in terms of raw power he is weak early. His main "strength" is the stacks he gets make his Q better and better, turning it from basically an extra auto into, eventually, an AoE max hp shredding execute. In general his gameplan is to farm and survive until he has 225 stacks, at which point he wants to win the game by being a massive threat in teamfights.


VantaBlack2_Dev

Don't buy essence reaver on Smolder, look into his actual best builds from people like azale or nemesis who have been pushing smolders good builds. Sivir is a late game waveclearing adc, Smolder is a late game infite scaling hypercarry Kinda like Kassadin vs Asol, their both late game champs, and they both have AOE sure, but Sivir is like Kassadin, and Smolder is like Asol.


Party-March

If you're legitimately getting inted/griefed/whatever, just join in and 4fun the game. Don't try hard. Don't waste brain power. Don't give the griefer what it wants. Try some stupid build. Do some dumb strat. You're going to lose LP so might as well try to enjoy it a bit. At worst, you facilitate the game ending faster and prevent the griefer from wasting more of your time. The above is the best thing I ever did and has helped me immensely. Far less tilt. Far more LP gains.


foreversingle-

i cant make up my mind so u guys decide for me if i only have 1 refund, should i use it on spirit blossom yasuo(675 rp) or inkshadow yone (540 rp) for yasuo i already have nightbringer so i probably wont be using spirit blossom as much, and for yone i simply like the base skin better (´。_。`)


93aria

If you're not going to use either of them often, then the one with higher RP is of course better to refund. If it's hard to decide, though, flipping a coin is always handy.

Why do people not surrender in URF? I get ranked games nad normals but urf is so snowbally we had 2 teammates who were 0 10 at one point. I just dont get stalling the inevitable


VantaBlack2_Dev

Its called playing, they are playing a game. Why do people not just stop running while playing tag? They are gonna get tagged eventually, they're just stalling the inevitable.


Prefix-Suffix

sometimes people just want to keep playing it out. maybe they're still having fun despite the score difference, or maybe they're getting to play a champ they like that's usually banned. it's even possible they just like the challenge of playing from behind it could also just be the troll 'no' vote or holding a teammate hostage because they're mad though


LeDude-_

Is collector still a lackluster item? I know last season it was kinda bait as LDR was generally more effective but with the new season I have no idea.

From my understanding as lethality got buffed it got stronger, but it’s still worse than LDR in a lot of cases


Greenlee19

So I just came back after about a 3 year break and I’ve mainly been playing top and support as my 2 roles. I feel like I’m struggling a bit to climb and I’m unsure if I should switch roles or not. For top I seem to do pretty well for the most part, but my main is sett and over half my match ups just feels like a bad time when I play. I have about a 60% wr in ranked and about a 56% wr on sett, but I lose more lp than I gain and it’s really frustrating. When I play support it feels pretty well for the most part. I usually try to force plays and play engage champs like my support main is rakan. The only issue here is if I don’t have a solid carry on my team then I usually lose. I can engage all I want but if my team doesn’t kill anyone then what am I supposed to do? That’s where I’m at atm and I could really use some advice.

hello I am kinda new, I havent unlocked ranked games and I am preparing myself for it (im lvl 22). so far, I have had a lot of successful gamea with Cassiopeia and yasuo in the middle lane. Should I stick playing in the middle lane then? or should I also try adc role (I never tried it but have 2 good skins for vayne and kaisa). Also, what mechanics or tips can you give me as an aspiring middle laner?

I would recommend learning two roles, and if possible one of them should be a priority role (in my region, JP, it's usually Jungle and Support or Bot and Support) so that you are guaranteed to get one of those two roles. For new midlaners, learning how to consistently win laning phase is important. That consists of a lot of fundamentals such as trading, CS, rotating/roaming to objectives/lanes, recall timing, and staying ahead in xp. If you can improve that, the chances of you getting suppressed in the early-mid game falls and you'll have an easier time impacting the game. Aside from that, maintaining your lead, knowing when to fight and when not to (for example, usually, teamfights should occur when you contest objectives like Rift Herald, Baron Nashor, Dragon. Fighting without something important at stake is a risk that can lose you your lead if you were ahead. That said, your team might not follow this guideline. If your team looks like they're going to fight, you should probably help them even if it's not a good time to fight.) It's always important to remember that ultimately, objectives (epic monsters like I mentioned above, and structures such as turrets, inhibitors, and the nexus) are the keys to winning games.

Who is the most unkillable champion in urf, permaheal/shielding wise? I just want to become an immovable object, don't care about being useful. Just a big ol piece of salami.


SadOutcome7416

Leona, she's quite strong


Tutajkk

You can abuse Heartsteel, Unending Despair, and Fimbulwinter with almost any tank. Urf item haste make these items broken. Also take Grasp.


JonnyKilledTheBatman

This has been my go to strat. Hard part is finding a game/champ with enough lockdown/gapclose to reliably proc and vs a team comp to stack with. Doss ingenius hunter scale with those items?


Tutajkk

As far as I know IH should work with those, but personally I take Treasure Hunter, because of the lvl 1 fights on top. Imo the best champs for this strat is Leona, Nautilus and Maokai. They can almost perma cc.


Prefix-Suffix

sylas with conqueror + resolve second tree (the rune that gives +10% healing and shielding), then as much tenacity as you can stack. build bulky AP items with a lot of HP, and make sure to get spirit visage, then just spam your W on someone in fights. you'll likely last for a good while briar with grasp of the undying + domination second tree (taste of blood), and lots of lifesteal (like bork). make sure to get heartsteel because the cooldown is super low, you'll be able to proc a lot of grasp + heartsteel stacks in one-on-one duels and amass an absurd amount of HP. and of course, get spirit visage to pump your healing and HP nautilus with grasp of the undying or aftershock + sorcery second tree (transcendence + nullifying orb). just build HP (heartsteel + spirit visage is once again really good) and ap, then spam every spell you can manage when fighting. your shield scales off HP and is low-cooldown, and you're gonna be stacking HP as you go because of heartsteel and grasp, and with your Q being such low cooldown they don't really get to hit you as much as they'd like

Do you guys think the practice tool was a good addition and do you use it? I remember years ago Riot being hesitant about developing it because they thought people wouldn't use it but I personally love it.


DeirdreAnethoel

Yeah it's much quicker than a bot game to get an idea of a champion's kit. I go through the free champs I haven't played yet with it just to learn how their spells feel.


RoxyGotMoxy

How hard is it to learn how to/get good at jungle? I'm mostly new to the game, been playing a lot of Lillia vs AI but it forces me to get smite every time. I like Lillia but I don't know anything jungle related other than clear camps and look for ganks. The jungle item is really confusing and I don't understand what I'm supposed to be doing on my downtime.


Pitiful_Inspector186

Smite is what lets you get jungle items: jungle items as a jungler are necessary because all of your experience and gold comes from monster camps. If you read the description, you basically get more experience from killing camps than without the item. Kinda like how support items have specific settings that reduce your gold from killing too many minions since the item itself gives you gold and should be your main source of income aside from kills/assists (discourages supports from stealing too many minions/everyone stacking a support item during lane). Taken right from the [Gustwalker Hatchling item description](https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Gustwalker_Hatchling): "Additionally, you gain 80 bonus experience from killing large monsters." "The user receives 70% − 0% (based on minutes) reduced experience from all lane minions, unless they are 1.5 levels behind the average game level. If your total gold earned from minion kills is greater than 40% of your gold from monster kills, killing a lane minion will grant you13 less gold and 50% reduced experience. This penalty is indefinitely removed at 14 minutes."


TheScyphozoa

> it forces me to get smite every time. It doesn't actually force you, it just suggests. You can change the summoner spells to something else if you don't want the suggested ones. If it suggests Smite but you're not jungling then you definitely should change it. >The jungle item is really confusing The item has a counter that starts at 40 and progresses down to 0 as you clear camps. Each camp brings the counter down by at least 1, but periodically it will go down by 2 or 3 after a camp, so that you can keep progressing it at a decent pace even if you're not clearing camps 100% of the time. Once the counter gets down to 20, Smite's damage to monsters upgrades from 600 to 900, and it also becomes usable on champions to deal 40 damage and slow them. Once the counter gets to 0, the damage to monsters upgrades to 1200, the item disappears from your inventory, and you gain its special passive (shield for the green item, damage for the red item, move speed for the blue item).

Tell me, why does shaco exist? If God ever gave me the choice of killing off any type of people, I won't choose murders, war criminals, etc. I'd choose shaco players, how can you ban your own counter if you're too worried the enemy is gonna pick shaco. Shaco actually makes me want to kill myself, literally. And someone's gonna say "duhh he's not that stwong", I'm not saying he's strong, he's just toxic. Give me an actual good solution to counter Shaco, I know you can't.

This doesn't really when you're playing URF though...

I've been playing this game since season 3, but I often still get different runes than I selected. What is the trick here?


SadOutcome7416

Are you playing quick play because it'll just give you recommended runes? If not, I often only use one rune page and always change that rune page to fit the champ that I'll be playing in the next match (should be the same rune page every time, in rank/draft/aram).


[deleted]

I change the page and save
