So I did a Sett game recently that we had to forfeit because the ADC disconnected. I finished 8/3 against Garen and I realized something: PTA IS the way to cook him because otherwise he has enough damage and sustain

This begs the question then : who else is a good matchup with PTA ? Because the rest with Conqueror is fine but the damage is useful against Garen but who else? Renekton maybe ? Ranged matchups ? I need to understand because I feel like it's the only thing I need to get even better

After a lot of testing, I realized that Blue Kayn has way more matchups than Red Kayn.

I said that because Red Kayn is good but only if you need a front line or they have HP sponges and juggernauts.

My memo for knowing which one is what the midlane is picking now. If he picks a mage I go blue every time and even with a Nocturne or Viego I don't lose matchups. If I went Red I would lose

If they have one fighter or assassin and two bruisers, I go Red (including the support. If it's a tank going Red is worth only if the jungle or Top is also a tank)

What are your thoughts ? I'm curious to know how others think about which Kayn to pick on the champ select

So here's my situation:

I'm silver (if I don't drop bronze again that is) and I have the two roles in my title I juggle between

The reason is pretty dumb actually: My most played champ is Sett. The second one is Briar.

So... I basically am in a situation where I did build two pools but I think I could do a better thing actually: which champ I can add in both lanes ? Because I can play Kayn and Viego for Jungle at a decent level now and for top I guess I can count Yone and Mundo (Mundo I play it against Heimer specifically or it's Shen)

I think having fun with a champ I can count on both lanes could unlock me for climbing (yes it's not effective but I'm having fun dammit)

I asked that question a long time ago in another sub (because I wanted a pool jungle before going back top) but I think I finally found a pool Toplane. I would like feedback about it because I need to know if I should replace one of them of if I can finally focus on those 5 for climbing:

Sett (My main), Yone, Pantheon, Malphite and Garen

Should I keep those ones or consider someone else (instead of either Garen or Malphite) ?

To make a long story short I have wave management issues and I struggle against good Darius and a bit against Pantheon because of it. And sometimes Illaoi

I would like to know if you have any advice except training tool because I need to understand how to last hit against people and punishing the enemy farm (both I'm already trying but managing to have enough success to rank up)

My Marco is probably bad because I think I rush the wave too soon. But I don't believe it's the only problem

I don't have to explain the title. I'm getting tired of playing Pantheon. I can't play against him top (unless I play Sett but I don't have the matchup anyway), can't play against him mid and support I never cared because he's not that common. But I struggle against him so much that I genuinely don't know what to do

I can't ban him every game either so what the hell am I supposed to do against him ? Every time I play one he freezes lane, doesn't let me farm or gain exp and if his team is smart the game ends after 20 minutes and I didn't do shit this game.

How am I supposed to face that champ ?

I tried playing Toplane lately in ranked and every game there's something bad happening. I either get constantly ganked and my Jungler doesn't help me. Or my team feeds another lane and we lose on this. I finally managed to stay neutral or have an advantage but nothing works

I genuinely don't know if it's tilt, elo or just horrible teams after teams. But I can't do anything to win games and I couldn't stay silver anyway. I don't know what to do

The title is pretty straightforward. I have a lot of knowledge about matchups but I would like to have more advice for range matchups. Which one I should avoid and which one needs special tricks

For example I faced a Leblanc recently and I decided to go Fleet Footwork instead of Conqueror. Let's just say I went 10 kills / 2 assists before the ADC managed to get me in a teamfight.

I will ask about Runes on another post but if it's relevant feel free to share your thoughts too

For transparency sake I'm a black Caribbean guy. I lived in Europe ever since I turned 13. 11 years later I basically feel like I gave my energy to a friendship that fucked me up more than my primary school teacher did for my trust in adults

I befriended a guy who was kind and a bit chaotic. To a sense that he always brought me to situations I didn't always asked for

3 years ago after I started to heal physically (I had surgery the year prior + I got a side job alongside college the year after) he started doing racist jokes. At first I didn't think much about it because those kind of topics are not uncommon. My mistake was brushing off personal attacks masked as banter

A friend reminded me of a time near new year's eve where he said he was going to bring my brother over (I don't have one mind you) and he brought a plushie of a monkey. There was also times where he would call by my name other black guys he saw. I also have proof over the years that his girlfriend hated me and when she basically called me a slave I felt bad and was genuinely upset

Our friendship stopped because I confronted him about what he did and he tried to gaslight me. Like seriously making this as something I was blowing out of proportion when it was what I saw. To make matters worse he also tried to weaponize our friendship as well. Everything I explained there happened in 2024

With insight I basically feel bad for not standing up for myself more aggressively than I should. I'm not soft but I always tried to be calm and collected when I express disagreements. I understand now that it's no use being like this because they will always pretend they don't understand that (little trivia : is Asperger a justification for not understanding why I don't like that this is the ONLY joke made and it's always at my expense ? I genuinely want to know)

I don't understand why I can't be mean to people who hurt me. Why do I feel apathy and don't try to get justice when it's possible ? If I have another friend like this he's getting dropped immediately this time

The title explain everything. I'm just annoyed by Heimer so I ban him everytime. But considering my champ pool (I hate playing Malphite so if I swap him for Mundo or Shen no idea if its gonna be fine) I should ban either Vayne or Teemo

Any advice?

Basically I had a problem with my PC overheating in ranked so Riot penalized me for it. To pass the punishment I decided to play whatevs crossed my mind and Aatrox is getting more and more interesting for me

​

I don't think I can bring him to rank (because he's probably redundant with my champion pool Toplane just like with Renekton) but I would like to have a bit of advice for moments like these

(I played him top and Jungle and Jungle was fun. Top lane I need to get familiar with my damage in the early game for the farm)

After a while I fell again in my Sett cycle and that made me realize something: I need a champion pool Toplane (I play Top and Jungle in ranked. Trying mid outside to see but I'll stick with those two roles in ranked this season)

​

Right now I would say that I would play Yone and Mordekaiser. However I feel like the last one is only there because I was told to learn an AP champ (and after trying Gwen Mordekaiser felt easier).

​

Do you think I should keep the third pick without any ideas for now or choose a character that compensates Sett's weaknesses while being easy to pick up for me ?

​

I usually play Duelists or Juggernauts (except Briar who I play assasin or Crit when I'm in the jungle)

Thanks in advance for your time if you have time to give some advice

​

P.S : I don't ask for Jungle because I already have a pool. Kayn, Briar and Yi. If I really need AP I can play Gwen or Ekko

Hi so I'm currently stuck in Bronze. At first I thought it was because I was bad or anything. Yesterday I used a site a friend sent me which is in beta test and I realized 3 things I seriously need advice about to progress :

Lack of vision : This is a constant every single game no matter who I play that I don't have good vision in the Jungle. I have timing for objectives (sometimes even behind I know when to contest at least) but this is an issue I really need to address

Too aggressive : This is also a problem when I play Top lane (I guess playing Sett does that to you lol) but I'm very aggressive so I probably take unnecessary risks I don't understand fully unless it's blatant that I did something bad

Characters : I can learn anything really. But I have a better time with duelists and assassins. Therefore I stuck with Yi, Briar, Kayn and Viego recently. I was told however that I need to shrink my champion pool to be more consistent (and I can't really otp since Briar gets banned a lot in low elo. Same for Yi)

I'll take any advice about everything and feel free to ask further questions
