Glad Elements decided not to show up today. Lose in 30 mins to H2K. Rekkles was 0/0/0 I believe

I'm starting to believe that tabzz's play style forced them to be more aggressive and allowed them to stay in the game long enough to win.
Now that rekkles is on the team, they play passive all the way to the point where they lose.
It's sad because he and froggen are both very talented. You would think they would perform better.

Considering the shite storm I had to put up with during placements, Bronze I isn't bad.

First game in, and they give me Blitz.
Doesn't seem like a troll pick to me
ETA: That shite was awesome

First game of Nemesis one of my idiot teammates gives them Cass. Someone else give Kennen. There are some stupid stupid people on this game.

Some people giving kat, karma, shaco, eve.
It's hard to keep kat from snowballing, deal with karma's poke, or deal with invisible champs.
Even harder when you don't deal much damage.

Gangplank is a beast in this game mode.
Not sure why so many people give him to the other team.

Nidalee isn't nearly as bad now that they fixed the bug where her cougar form cd's were resetting for no reason. I actually had to change the way I play her to compensate. Really damn annoying after I had gotten used to cd's resetting after swapping forms. I didn't even realize that wasn't intended.

Elements sucks.

EU is bad and they should feel bad. Unless some teams take major strides in the summer split they might do even worse at this year's worlds.

Alright guys, serious post.
I think I want to spend more time specializing. I don't get an awful lot of time online to practice league. So, that plays a role in it.
I think I like split pushing a lot more than team fights.
When I adc, I usually have decent cs, but lack lane pressure. I go even in lane, but often times fall behind in kills. However, late game, I do pretty good and end up even in k/d. I can tell when I face an ADC main. They are usually better than me and I struggle to just stay close in cs. Very early I am usually ahead and pushing them under tower. Later on, like the 5-6 minute mark, they take control.
Support work is ok. I haven't studied warding strategies enough to carry that way, but I do a pretty good job of helping win lane and take objectives. I like landing hooks/stuns and with a better ADC than me, it's pretty fun. I ping and watch the map more than most of my soloq team.
As mid, my cs is great, but mid mains pressure me very hard. I usually don't snowball.
Top, I've rarely had a bad matchup, and my cs is near perfect. I kind of like diving on back lines and initiating. Afk farm and freeze the wave is pretty natural for me.
Jungle, I can farm yi, gank vi, tank/taunt rammus, and play a lot of different styles as it's the role i started with and have the most experience.
I guess what I'm asking is with my limited practice time in consideration, which role am I most likely to be successful playing?
I don't have to be the hard carry on my team. It's not an ego game for me. It's very much a teamwork game for me. But I often get stuck with woeful Adc's and that's why I took up that role. I'd rather play it and just go even than let someone else frick it up.

I am the same with adc as well. I am a very passive, farm heavy type of adc. I'll poke and whittle them down little by little, but I'm not gonna try to make CLG plays at my elo. You just can't count on a random support to be there for you every time.
That playstyle fits my league mantra perfectly: Don't Die
Generally, I take very few deaths, if any, during laning phase. Unless the person I am laning against is just in an entire other class, I'll beat them late game because of my farm.
If they are ever fed, it isn't at my hands.

Sounds like you are most comfy with top /jungle fighters and bruisers.
Sounds similar to me honestly in your top and jungle style. I've been maining wukong (dive and burst a backline) lately and really enjoy it. If top or jg is open I pick him. J4 or xz sometimes
Easy answer is "play what's most fun" but winning is also fun, and specializing would lead to more wins in theory.
Soloq is just so random though. You may have first pick but the enemy team bans your 3 mains and first picks your 4th. Or your main role and champ may fall to you 10th pick. You've really got to be decent in all 5 roles.
thing is, If you climb with 1 champ or role, and don't get that role in a critical game, you are obviously at risk
Simply put, either get good with a small champ pool and role and dodge when you don't get it, or become good at filling and perfecting team comps.
If you want to go full tryhard , lolking your allies in champ select to see if that adc that first picks vayne and last pick that is begging for mid have any decent experience in that role

Jeez, Febiven drew all 3 bans by CW today. Bout to watch and see if giving huni rumble and reignover rengar was a good idea...
Appears it was a good idea.
