You stand under your tower and farm, tahm eats you when you take damage and tahm is tanks enough to not die himself if he’s not running in like a... the boards are sensitive so insert a bad word of your choosing here.
You can fight on ganks but you shouldn’t try anything yourself, Caitlyn has 650 range and Xayah has 525, you need to ban cait because realistically you will never win this lane. Then again everyone makes mistakes so yea you might win it sometimes.
Xayah is a lot stronger past laning phase though so just try to keep your tower alive as long as you can and you can start to outscale for “team fights”

Bit of a late response, but no one is sacreficing precision for stop watch, it's a secondary rune where they take stopwatch which means they sacrefice either sorcery or domination, right?
My point was you do not sacrefice precision, also zombie ward is good and there's plenty of adcs who take that instead of inspiration.

Just look for some friends to try these things with instead of annoying random players with it to avoid asking this to begin with, if you don’t know anyone look on boards or reddit or something.

It's definitely rude. I never said it wasn't.
But it's not a sentence that will trigger the system that gets you banned.

Most of the bans are done automatically, so yes you did something wrong by triggering key words that people get banned for.
If you want to stand up for yourself just use words that don't trigger the system, for example you can say "living isn't the only option" to someone, instead of telling them to kill themselves, because that's just rude.
Hope this helps, just be smart about it if you want to talk back to people ^.^

From my experience outside of just league NA chat is just cleaner because they know the language better, in Europe there's all sorts of different languages and my assumption is that the ones who aren't very good at English just don't speak English until they're motivated(tilted) enough to do so.
Seen this a lot in more casual, less team reliant games. EU public chats are strictly game talk while NA public chat is full of casual conversations with a similar amount of game talk.

I seriously disagree with the intro bots, a few months ago I had a friend play a game on my account just to try it out, I told him absolutely nothing, all I did was runes and masteries, he never played a moba before and easily ended the game with the highest score on the team (implying the rest was also new players)
And he use to only play xbox back then so he was super clumsy with mouse and keyboard.
I still agree that these bots are a bad experience for new players, there's no point denying that.
I just don't think it's as easily fixed as some people think, just look at any other online game, almost every single one of them have bots ruining the game way more than the ones in league do.
The only way I see this getting better is increasing the ban waves, not fix the problem just reduce it, without affecting normal players.
And as for 3v3, I'm aware of the meta there, granted I don't play it much, my friends do and they're all diamond or above by now so it's mostly that I cannot be bothered to climb that high by myself or make them go on a smurf.
I'm kind of a casual player, just got gold for the rewards and didn't play since unless friends wanted too, I prefer normals with others and collecting pretty things from hextech crafting :p
However thanks for the advice, you went into quite a bit of detail so I appreciate it, I've always enjoyed learning in video games.

New players that lose to beginner bots should automatically realize they should do intro bots, I personally haven't played intro bots in a while, I'm guessing it's the same for you but I remember it from my own experience a few years ago, you can not lose that.
And if they don't do that it's on them, if you can't beat the medium difficulty you turn it down to learn and get better.
Though I agree that's the only actual issue with these bots and why there should be something they do to fix it, but I highly doubt this will work because of reasons I've stated before.
And yes I'm aware about the match making on 3v3 :/
It's quite sad and part of the reason I stopped playing it after I got placed into bronze and climbed to silver 5, while all my friends were gold/plat after promos and I wasn't able to duoQ with them even though we did our promos together (they played last season and I didn't so I had fresh MMR and they didn't) but for whatever reason they get silvers in their games anyway.

With answers I was referring to the comments posted before mine, it does not work.
I was also referring to posts about this prior to yours, which was kind of unfair to start off like that, but by now I don't really regret it.
And yes I do have something to 'bi7ch' about (I didn't realize that word gets censored, it's what the %%%%% in my first reply was) and that is that I do not want to fill out a random question every time I hop into a game, and neither does the vast majority of this player base.
As for "If you do, enough said" I was implying you just pointed out the issue here. Then again I do not think you want to be dumb.

I'm fairly certain they already do this, the thing is botters just update it to bypass and then Riot has to go back and fix their program to detect the new ones.
Bots are currently being banned in waves, and I'm very %%%%ing sure they do not manually go over each account lol.
The current system is fine, I don't think anything suggested on the boards would improve the game, probably make it worse than it already is, the only suggestion that could work is making these ban waves more frequent, but then again I do not work for Riot, so I can't say this is even possible without putting more resources into it, it probably is.
But then again I honestly do not think it's that big of a deal, personally I have over 1000 co-op vs ai games played and I've never struggled to close out a game within 20 minutes by myself.
Then again not everyone is equally good at this game so I do see how this could be an issue for newer players but at the same time I'd say it's good practice, and in the end it's just a loss in a botgame, why would they really care.

How often are you implying we'd have to fill out this question?
Acording to Komodolai(someone who posted here) the botters are sitting behind their computers while doing it so what's to stop them from simply filling in this question and then proceeding to have a bot run their game after.
you know what I'm just going to copy paste my previous post since clearly you did not read it, or you simply could not comprehend it...
If the random question is only for co-op vs ai then bots go to aram (which they already do).
If the random question is only for co-op vs ai and aram then bots go to TT (which they already do/did at some point).
If the random question is only for co-op vs ai, aram and TT then the bots go to summoners rift.
I hope you can see where I'm going with this...
If the random question is on every game mode we have, then it's going to piss off every %%%%ing player in the game lol.
I am 100% sure the last option is not acceptable to many players, majority of the player base would complain about having to fill out a question every time they go into a normal summoners rift game just because there's bots in co-op vs ai.
And as I've clearly explained the other options do not work.
I seriously do not understand why this is so hard for you to grasp, it has been suggested so many times and it simply will not work.

A random question would most likely work against bots, but it'd annoy 90% of the player base.
If the random question is only for co-op vs ai then bots go to aram (which they already do).
If the random question is only for co-op vs ai and aram then bots go to TT (which they already do/did at some point).
If the random question is only for co-op vs ai, aram and TT then the bots go to summoners rift.

If the random question is on every game mode we have, then it's going to piss off every %%%%ing player in the game lol.
If it's a one time thing or once a week/ occasional on login or whatever, it would probably significantly decrease botting, but it wouldn't stop it, definitely not noticable for a player like you or me.
If it was really that simple they would've already done it, Riot likes being some-what efficient about these things so if they could have it done automatically, consistently and constant they would do that over doing it in waves no doubt.

They do a pretty great job about banning bots FYI.
The part that's complex about it is that they just come back.
"look at the damn replay."
I'm just going to quote you as a reply to yourself here...
"Use your fkin head"
They don't look at the damn replay to begin with, how many people do you think work at Riot? a couple thousand just sitting around looking at chat logs and replays to get people banned?
Of course not, they use a program to detect flaming, that's why you get banned for flaming someone else who flames/trolls, a program detects you are flaming and thus you get banned.
Doing anything else is inefficient.

It's likely those are new players... believe it or not but this game is pretty complicated the first time you try it, many people forget about their first experience, but losing to beginner bots is quite normal.
I highly doubt people would sit behind their computer while botting, as far as I'm aware they're done in groups run by the same people that just sell those accounts when they reach level 30, so that'd be really inefficient.
And in case it was just a new player that just makes you a troll and toxic, leave them alone they're just learning the game, towers hurt and you can't just ignore the minions and play pvp all the time, took me a game or two to realize that myself (though be it a couple years back by now).
Then again it's possible what you said is true... but I'd suggest being open minded because it's likely you ruined a game for someone by doing that.

As a new player this game is seriously overwhelming, I honestly don't think the same champions in every game is an issue for a new player, it probably helps to be honest.
As a smurf you also don't really play with new players it's mostly other smurfs due to your mmr (from my experience at least)
On top of that new players play co-op vs ai, which is something I still do for first win of the day sometimes and many of them struggle with that, which would imply it's already challenging enough so imagine a pvp match.
The only thing that's boring from my own leveling up the first time a couple years ago experience is people like me coming into the games and going 1v5 ending the game at 15 minutes while they're 0/1/0 and just finished reading their champions abilities.
I do however feel your pain on leveling up a second account. Hopefully that won't be necessary anymore when the new runes/leveling system comes out.
But from my own experience and that of friends it's really not an issue as a new player.
Even if they came from another moba.

Taking 5 teleports is a fair strategy that you won't see normally, I remember losing a couple games to people taking 5TP back in season 5.

If you're only honor 3 by now I don't think you've been playing enough to get the maximum amount of keys, everyone I know who plays regularly is honor 5 for a while and the ones that don't are level 4.
EDIT: Actually decided to take a look at your match history, seems like you started playing regularly again a week ago, in that case just keep doing this for a month + and you should be getting more keys.
PS: for me they dropped in groups of 4-5 at a time after not getting any for a while when I was playing regularly.

Like I said, I think your dad is asking a bit much, I was just replying to the person who said parents shouldn't ask for rent at all, I think a bit of rent is a good thing at a certain age since it'll encourage the kids to move out instead of staying at home ;).

Depending on your age asking for rent as a parent is perfectly fine.

While low spec mode does fix some things like low fps it still doesn't fix nearly everything, yesterday I hovered Caitlyn, then I switched to Ahri and during the entire champ select it told me I selected Ahri, but then when I got in game I was playing Caitlyn... things like that are game changing it's ridiculous there's bugs like that, I've also had issues changing mastery pages, being unable to select a champion so I dodge a game and I have to wait 6 minutes and a lot of other issues.
And I actually have a good computer so it's definitely not that.
PS, they are all pretty rare occasions but the fact they happen at all is ridiculous, especially with how they're inforcing to use the new client.

If it's that much of an issue just ban her? That should work for 3 out of 5 games you're in, the other 40% you can ask your team to do it for you.
Might not be able to every game but it should significantly decrease the amount you see in your games.
For me sustain early like trundle works pretty well, I just freeze the wave in front of my tower and use minions to block her Q, sustain through the AA's and if the jungler comes it's often a free kill, if not we both just farm up.
I don't think this is very good advice but it works for me, if nothing else works for you you can give it a shot.

All I stated was that I think 99% of the community has a grasp of how to play Ashe at a very basic level.
So you either misunderstood or replied to the wrong person.
As for what you said, yes if someone goes AP on Ashe I would assume it's a decision they made, as for her build being bad, without looking something up and very limited gameknowledge I don't think I'd be able to come up with a proper build for her myself. your point still stands though but to be completely honest I think you might be slightly over reacting :).

I'm pretty sure it follows them if you take it off manual or champion controlled and put it on the automatic view (when it spectates everyone and rotates to whereever the action is).
There might be another way to follow one specificly but I don't know how to do that, my way works though aslong as the spectating thing decides that's what you should be watching :p.

>You can't just assume everyone has played every champion in LoL just cause you have?
I was referring specificly to Ashe. Because for me and **everyone** I know she was the go to champion.
Generally she is the most appealing champion to a starting player and I guess there's probably one person who has never played her.. but the fast majority of players started playing the game on her, and if not they would've tried her out sometime after starting.

ARAM.
Also I find it hard to believe there are people who don't know the basics of Ashe's kit, Everyone I know started playing this game on Ashe, obviously new players suck at the game in general but most of them can grasp the idea behind Ashe her kit.

>So checking a person's last 20 games, out of which were 19 aram
I selected to show normal(blind/draft) games only when I looked at your past 20 games, since that is what we were talking about.
>After S6 ended my MMR showed low plat and it was based off the ranked games (it was 1860 ish, but then again, different web pages will show you a different number).
Ranked and normal mmr are completely seperate, and most websites only show you ranked mmr.
So if it was taking ranked games into consideration this had nothing to do with your normal mmr.
And it's very common for people to have a higher ranked mmr than normals btw, also there's nothing wrong with gold 5, I meant nothing by it when I said it seems you're in the right place, though I take your word for it you were higher before. (just to clear up any confusion)
And as for the EUNE/EUW part, no clue never played on EUNE so it might very well be different.

>I somehow doubt that you can be silver and have ranking of a diamond
It takes a lot of games on average to get to a higher rank, this guy in particular has 52 wins 28 losses, silver 3.
In that case you definitely do not belong in silver, he could probably get to plat easily if he just played more ranked games.
If you are as skilled as a diamond player and you play 1000 normal games and 50 ranked games, obviously your normal MMR will be a better indicator of your skill simply because there is more data to go from.
>My elo is low plat but I play with diamonds and silvers in matches.
Quick hover over your past 20 games I'd say it's more like you're low gold/high silver with occasional plat/diamond who are out of place because of premades/not enough normal games/boosted/not enough players to have proper match making.
And considering you are gold 5 in ranked that's about where you should be.
>The other thing that you mention is also not so much true. Yes, the higher elo players behave better, but it is not a rule. As I said, in preseason I have been playing flex with plats and diamonds and the amount of toxicity and negativity in games was sometimes no different than the silver elo.
That's because of flex, I was talking about normal games, yes higher elo will generally be very toxic towards players who are clearly not a match for them, I can be like that myself sometimes when I get a team mate who is clearly worse than all 9 other players in the game, I think that is normal.
Flex queue created a MMR reset which means that match making got completely fucked over and challengers tier players get matched with people who belong in bronze. I'm sure you can see how that would be frustrating for a challenger player.
However what I said was specificly about normal(blindpick) games, they are generally way less stressful and you will see a significant difference with higher elo players since majority of those are only playing normals for **fun**.
I use to be in the top ~10% of euw normals and I can say from experience that barely anyone ever flamed unless there were premades, for example a diamond player with a bronze player, that bronze player simply doesn't belong in this match and thus people occasionally get frustrated with their lack of... well everything lol.
Though the past few months I've been playing with friends a lot and playing stuff like AP {{champion:266}} which significantly dropped my MMR believe it or not :P.
And when I play alone or with just one or 2 friends I can see a huge difference in toxicity, even though it's mostly still gold/silver, and fyi I'm not even ranked at all, though I have played plenty of games with all plat/diamond players.
My apologies for the novel, kudos to you if you managed to survive the whole thing.

If you play with higher elo players on average and not just occasionally one person in a game with the rest all silvers then that probably means your normal MMR is a bit higher than your ranked MMR, that's not uncommon btw.
And this also explain why you haven't experienced the problems most people seem to be experiencing in blind pick, higher elo players are generally more relaxed in normal games so there's no reason to bitch about roles all the time.
In lower MMR games blind pick is actually as horrible as they describe but that has nothing to do with blind pick it's just the players.
There's nothing wrong with normal match making, the only problem is that you for example might be way above silver but you just don't play ranked much, while another player never plays normals but he plays ranked a lot so he's diamond but playing with silvers in his normal games.

I like the current animation for his Q, but I would like to see it harder to interupt, I was thinking about this the other day and what I'd like to see is that while he is going up into the air he cannot be interupted, then while he dashes down to his target he can be, to still keep some counterplay, since it is a pretty strong dash with low cooldown.

I think they should keep his old accounts banned but really stop banning his future accounts just because they belong to him, if he breaks the rules on them again then just ban the account but don't ban the person.

I find Jinx works pretty well on TT, and my friend can play tristana and caitlyn on it.
Other than these two champions being played by me and my friend most adc's don't work very well. You really have to learn how to play on your own as an adc on TT, don't expect your team to peel for you and learn how to do it for yourself.
And you'll have to get yourself a lead early game by using your range advantage in lane, if you go even or lose in laning phase you'll be pretty much useless the rest of the game.

Personally I ping my ping a lot, though my spikes have nothing to do with their servers it's my own side, and from what I've seen it's the same for everyone in my games so maybe it's unrelated in your games as well (apart from the ones complaining about it).
And a lot of my friends have <20 ping and like to show off so they ping it at the start of the game just for fun, then usually everyone shows their ping as well.
Just pointing out that it might be unrelated to your issue.
As for actual useful tips on how to deal with this, they've already been provided by the others so I won't bother.

If Q is too high risk you're not using it right, you should think about when you're using it not just mindlessly walk up and cast Q against a blitz with hook up or something, wait until his Q is on cd and then you spam your Q during that 20 second cooldown. Just to give an example.
As for E it's pretty hard to hit the snare on it but the rest of her kit is so incredibly simple I think that's fine, and without the snare it's still a great ability for the silence.
