Hey everyone, recently I made a post about how good I’ve been doing with Vlad in draft as practice and stuff, but I had to take it down as I had my teammates names usernames on it. I thought I had vlad all worked out, and I still think I do I know there's always room to learn of course but when I go into ranked I do awful with him, I’m only iron 3 because I’ve only just started playing ranked just been in draft until now but is their any advice all you amazing high rank Vlad players could give me for playing him when it comes to rank I already know about CS is the main focus and to play safe and poke when the enemy steps up, right now I'm iron 3 and running death fire touch and for my summoner spells I use ignite and flash, but I’m thinking of changing ignite for ghost. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. 

Hey guys, so I’ve been playing Vlad for a couple of months now. I understand his combo and the fact you're have to farm as much as possible, but I’m having trouble with some long range mid-laners specifically Veigar and akali. Whenever I try and farm against Veigar even under tower it’s pointless as his range and ap is overwhelming and immediately 2 shots me he even ran past my turret and killed me before and alkali is near impossible to hit due to her twilight shroud and her good wave clear there's some long range mid laners I can handle but the two I mentioned, and a few others are very hard to even farm against so my question is what advice can anyone give to help me out against these match ups or even a video guide I watch elite500s gameplay, but I still feel like I just can't handle the insane range and ap/ad any advice would be greatly appreciated! 

Hey guys, so, basically, I am currently using the Razor TARTARUS V2. That’s where I have my character abilities, but I use my Razor mouse with the 12 button side panel on for my summoner spells and items, which can be hard to use as the buttons are pretty small, and it’s not exactly the best set up for league. The mouse is great, but I’m looking for a new keypad/mini keyboard to play league with. I don’t like using my full keyboard and never have with any games, so if anyone has any recommendations and could reply with them, I'd appreciate it! As I’ve seen a few already, but I know there are players here who’ve been using all sorts of keyboards and minis for years and know better than me since I’ve been playing five months, so any recommendations would be great!  

Hey guys! Basically, I’ve been playing League for five months now, and I’ve only ever mained LeBlanc. I have five months of experience playing her, and I’ve got her completely down. I know her combos, the right gear, and stuff, but that doesn’t matter right now. I came on here because I recently started playing Vlad, and I’m having a bit of trouble. I understand that in the early game he is pretty weak because he is a late-game champion, and you should poke and just try to get him to level 9 for his Q cooldown. I know his combo, which I’m still practicing to perfect, but for some reason it feels like I never get anywhere with him and often lose. That’s normal when learning a new champ, but I also seem to very rarely get a kill. I’ll cut to the chase and just ask some questions. Number 1: What are the best runes for Vlad? I’ve seen many different ones, and I honestly don’t know what to go with. Number 2: What are the best summoner spells for him to learn for when I properly main him? I hear it’s Ghost and Flash for mobility, which I’m currently using. And finally, number 3: Do you have any advice or guides you could recommend?

So, after making my first post asking how to play LeBlanc over 160 days ago, I officially went into my first ranked match and played LeBlanc. We won the game, and I finished with 8 kills, 13 deaths, and 11 assists. I know that isn't great for a ranked match, but we made it through.
The only problem was how toxic some of the players were. The jungler, Diana, was doing about the same as me in terms of kills, deaths, and assists, yet the person playing her started saying things like, "You must be a woman," and, of course, telling me to you know what myself the go to insult for losers like that.
I've got to ask are all ranked players this toxic? even when you're winning anyway? And why was I playing against and with emerald players when in bronze? Doesn’t league have a system to put you in a match with players on your rank?
