Good luck with that. I can't get out of bronze, I just play too much normal and are too worried about ranked just in case I drop a down further. Been in promotion 3 times so far but always get AFK's or people who like to troll.Quote:

If you are a jungler main and find out that 1 of your lanes are feeding hard, don't you dare to go there and gank, focus on the other lanes.
timestamp drake,barons atleast, if you can blues and reds. summoners from the enemy team too (it helps alot)
Thanks for the tips, I don't actually main any role but usually fill in the support role just because everyone else hates it and I am ok at the role but I can't carry from this role. Thanks for the jungler tips though I normally try ganking hard feeding lanes but guess I will change now and get other lanes fed for my team.Quote:

Master 3 for each role is definitely the least, 2 is definitely not enough. 2 means that if a ban or a pick comes out, you will be forced on the other champ, which sucks hard if it doesn't fit the comp.Quote:

Since you need to be able to fit the team and possibly counter pick, you need some choice in that as well. So when you got like Renekton and Olaf as options top, that means that in many cases, even though they locked in the top laner first, you won't be able to counter it.
4 isn't needed in all lanes and it also depends on the champion, I can lane passively against pretty much anyone with Karthus, I can farm under lane and destroy them late game. I can also play well with say Ahri, but she's harder to farm under tower so I need to get away from my tower, also my power will be in picking the enemy off, if the enemy has something that is hard to catch, I will get destroyed.
With ADC you won't need 4, but having some variety is good, if you only play Draven and Vayne, that can be a huge problem when playing against say Caitlyn/Karma or something like that, so you want to be able to pick up a champ that got some longer range. And even if you play Vayne and Cait to mix it up, do remember that a Cait pick on their side, means a Vayne pick on yours.
I am trying to improve my top lane roster as I don't have many champions in the top lane and wanting to expand this. I have 4800IP currently but was thinking of getting 6300IP for Quinn as she seems to be an okay adc but not the best but also I have seen her played mid lane and top lane. Anyone actually played Quinn?
Also want to get Fizz as he can just get fed so easy and then kill under tower so easy without loosing much health. I do prefer to play champions that don't normally get played just because it's boring playing the 'OP' champions but I don't think I should put myself at a disadvantage in ranked just because I don't want to play the 'OP' champions.
Le Blanc and Yasuo have been banned a lot in ranked so don't try and Master those for ranked play. I haven't played a ranked game where those 2 haven't been banned.
That's because people are sheep who watches the pro's, fact is that LeBlanc has a 45% win ratio and Yasuo 47. The thing is with assassin's in general, that you need a good team comp and good mechanics. Same goes for Gragas, Kassadin, Lee Sin, Elise, Zed and more. All of these champs are at the bottom of the win Ratio's, yet are highly contested among the pro's. They require a lot of skill, require good team play, but also good warding. LB is great for picking people off, but what if there are no wards?
I personally don't like Quinn, not saying she's bad, but I don't really think she offers anything special. I would rather look at the cheaper champs. If you go expensive on an ADC though, go Lucian.Quote:

You played her before the Pro's did? You sure? You're a day 1 beta player or something?
Anyway she ain't OP or broken, like I said, her stats are negative, however like all assassin's, when fed gets extremely strong.
You have 2 AD champs top, so you want some Tank/AP, I would get Cho, I personally like him, doesn't win most lanes, but also doesn't lose them, in team fights he gets big though. Shyvana always works as well.
Need that AP burst? Try something like Vladimir or Ryze.
I didn't mean it like that. But after her kit getting damage moved around and stuff people didn't play her and was rarely seen but I still played her.Quote:

remember that my advice is based on what he is looking for, to get out of bronze, Im not even Plat yet so I can just give advices biased on what I learn till Gold II :b but IMO about Karthus, pick Karthus and make that fizz mid/top/jungle fed, then lets talk about who destroys who late game xD even with the Sheen's nurf and his "buff" on W he's stills a beast for me. Another way for him to get out of bronze quicker I would say: Pick Yi/Xinzhao jungle and abuse Feral Flare, do solo baron at 15~20minsQuote:

Lucky me. Quinn is on the free rotation for tomorrow so I can try her out and also Irelia who I have seen people play top really well. Also, Patch 4.6 is coming out tomorrow I believe. Can't wait.
try aatrox or jax. both are decent top laners (aatrox is better in the jung imo). They aren't the best tanks but 3 revive aatrox is op as hell in fights
