This champ is not real

This champ is not real

I know people hate the term freelo but...

First game ever playing him in ranked was the 22/4 game.

Main issue I am running into now is playing him into tankier comps. Played a game against 3 tanks yesterday and got absolutely destroyed. Went bruiser build, it felt bad. Any tips for that, or should I just have a different champ ready for those games?

Also saw he is getting nerfed next patch, sad.

JG EZ

Came across this vid from Nightblue that he posted only a month ago. Absolutely insane game. I know Ez Jg hasn't been viable for like 6 years, but this has me questioning. I switched to jg main since bot lane is a nightmare these days but miss playing ez. The healing he gets from EH, GG, and bloodline is absurd. Lowkey wanna try this, anyone ever messed around with Ezreal JG?

Help me know what to build and when

Sup gang. I am committing to the Monkey King. I have always loved him, but in my recent grind and return to the game he has proven to be my highest WR champ by far. I play him JG for reference. This thread has shown me how creative you can get with his builds, and I wanna mix things up, especially since I am low elo. I typically run the basic build with him: TF-Sundered-Black cleaver or deaths dance. I have seen full lethality builds, full crit builds, and hybrids of these. I'd love to mix these in as it could help me solo carry and hard win in games where they are most viable, I just dont know when it is right to use them. Bruiser Wu is what I am used to, but surely into squishier comps I could do something else to hard carry and win, right? Help me out!

eGPU Rec's

Alright gang you guys helped me a bunch with some previous questions, and I have since bought a mini and eGPU dock. I have the GMKtec K11 (32GB RAM 1TB SSD) and the aoostar AG01 dock. My question is: what is essentially the cheapest/best value GPU I could get to increase performance with this bad boy. I play league, rocket league, Overwatch, and just started playing GW2. The mini actually runs all of these games fine, but I want to get into some other games in the future and have the potential to run basically any game well. What should I look at?

How to focus objectives/CS and still be available to help team members

I have gotten back into league after a long hiatus. I've never been much of a ranked player despite playing the game for years and years. I've always liked jungle and thought it would be my best shot at climbing. In my recent games I've tried implementing the strategy of focusing mainly CS and objectives to stay ahead of the enemy jungler. Although I have had success (GreasePapi#NA1 - Summoner stats - League of Legends) I don't understand how I will eventually be able to keep the CS/objective focus up while also contributing to team fights, ganking lanes, etc. There are some outliers like the most recent Lee Sin game where I had to try and 1v5 because the enemy Shaco was killing EVERYONE on my team. But, for the most part, I am not impacting the game damage/kill wise hardly at all (see Amumu game, other Lee Sin game). I am getting dragons, grubs, towers, barons at times, etc. but finishing games like 9th or 10th in damage dealt and KDA. Most of these games you could also argue I got carried by good teammates.

I guess my question is, I'm seeing success in focusing gold and leads, but I know eventually I will need to do that, AND apply pressure with Tempo and affect lanes and get kills, do more damage, etc. etc. What are some tips to do both?

Help me pick between these two options for a casual gaming mini PC.

Alright yall, you guys were pretty helpful the other day for my previous question (linked). Since then I have found two decent option on ebay/FB marketplace, help me figure out which one would be best.

Option 1: GMKtec Nucbox 11 32GB RAM 1TB SSD Ryzen 9 iGPU 780M. Bonus to this is its oculink compatible and the guy would throw in a doc for an extra $120. Total for this would be $590 with the doc, $470 just for the box. Downside to this is the pc + the eGPU doc is kind of messy and defeats the purpose of a mini PC imo.

Option 2: MSI Trident 3 2060 Nvidia 32 GB RAM 1 TB SSD. Bonus to this is I think the GPU is dedicated, rather than iGPU, based on the spreadsheet guide from this community. If I understand that spreadsheet correctly this GPU is better than the first options. Price for this is $500.

What's everyone's thoughts? I am probably doing way too much research on this but that's just how I am lol.

MiniPC for Gaming

Hey guys, been going back and forth with ChatGPT all day and feel like i'm going crazy. I am a light gamer, don't play anything super competitively and also mainly play on console. I know basically nothing about PC gaming and even less about MiniPC's. I want to be able to play games like league of legends, overwatch, rocket league etc. without issues. Don't need elite performance, just decent FPS and graphics. The reason I am considering a miniPC is because I live in a small house with very little room for a desktop situation. Also, my wife would not like a big, loud, strobe-lighting PC on our kitchen table lol. Is there any MiniPC option that is decent for these requirements? Budget would be like $500. Maybe this just simply doesn't exist but figured I'd ask the forum.
