Makο Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Sounds about right. A lot of silver players, including myself (though I'm Gold), have a problem with tunnel vision. Gotta pay attention, man. Focusing on one spot for too long is a sure-fire way to get ganked, or to lose a major objective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHN. Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Having high MMR is pretty annoying atm, getting placed against low/mid golds in placements and my team mid silvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Amazing Avian Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 I hit silver 4 before the reset, can't even get to silver v now. I mean I do fine most of the time, but people start to do really risky stuff when we're ahead and we end up throwing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 When in Silver, you're winning, and the option to Baron comes up, remember the golden rule: Don't! In Silver, turnarounds happen most often at overconfident and outplayed baron fights. Just keep pressure on the map, or bait them for an easy ambush. Only actually try to Baron if it's garunteed free, like when at least 2 of their team members are dead (preferably including their jungler) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Avian Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 The people I play with try it when they have their inhibitors up and everyone is alive. Me spamming pings to get away from it doesn't discourage them, so I go ahead and follow the team, then A Wild Vi Appears! We get destroyed and we lose.

Brinolovania Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Yeah, Silver is pretty much one giant Dignitas that way. I had a (support) Pantheon yesterday who raged at us for not following his calls, even though he wanted to go for dragon with their entire team MIA...

Brinolovania Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I was hoping for C9 to be the ones to wreck everyone and not let LMQ be the top team in NA...not working as expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Avian Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 MadStone is surprisingly effective. Built it on Volibear and I was literally beating these guys with my bear hands, zero fucks given, flash throwing people into my team, triple tower diving and running away because of op passive.

Brinolovania Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 ^On the note of turret diving... It is a bad idea to build full damage Vi? And then dive into their team with full damage Vi? 'Cause I've been doing it, and it's really fun and it seems to actually work kinda well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Full damage vi is fine if your Top and Support are both tanky. Otherwise, just build tanks. Who knows how many games I've lost because we lacked tanks. Edit: Wow. Garen is a ton of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Avian Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 That's how I play Vi. If anything, I'll build a Randy or Banshee for defense items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHN. Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Not even joking, just got roflstomped by a challenger smurf... Turns out he's a chill guy and he added me afterwards and carried me through a few rankeds. Still, what a weird experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHN. Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Nope, need to ask him later. (This is on EUW btw). I was in a game and my friend lolnexus'd it, he said the guy had 0 wins but a beast kda, he only did co-op vs AI to level 30 I guess. Seriously though you could tell by the way he played he wasn't lying, he basically did what I would normally do in a co-op vs AI game, completely dominated (this was in high silver/low gold elo).

Brinolovania Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 I once faced a (former) Challenger in a dominion game, who was queued with plat and gold players when we didn't have anyone above Bronze (this was before I got to silver). That didn't work out very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
