Question

What do you do if 15 mins in everyone is behind but your lead is not big? Do you splitpush and concede more objectives? Do you try to influence teamfights/make picks? Try to organize a jg invade to relieve pressure on my own jungler? Also, how do you stall on this champion, if let's say you have a scaling smolder or smth? I think I'm done playing him in ranked until I can answer these questions.

A bitter truth.

After my typical string of losses today, a teammate of mine did some unruly investigation and called me out for picking my goat, claiming I had the same winrate on him as a troll pick. I was in utter shock at such a ghastly accusation, and so I didn't believe it. That is, until I saw it for myself. 42% across 60 games. Oof. 42%...ain't tooo bad, right? That's only like, picking into a hard counter levels of bad. Surely disco nunu is way lower than that—oh. 41%. Huh.

This truth was quite painful. I asked him what I should do. After a lengthy pause, he finally responded:

"You already know what you need to do. You need to play more Jayce."

At least, that's what I think he would've said. His actual response could not be deciphered. Something about "zero-tolerance language" or whatever. Which is weird, because what he would've said was quite positive.

In any case, my morale has improved. The grind continues. This champ is hard. Get those reps in, y'all.
