This is an opportunity for the more experienced LoL players here to share some of your wisdom with those with less expertise. This thread will be a weekly safehaven for those "noobish" questions you may have been too scared to ask for fear of downvotes, but also can be a great place for in depth discussion if you so wish. So, don't hold back, get your game related questions ready and post away, and hopefully someone can answer them!

The peak of League of Legends casting

Schalke 04 showed this video about the EU semifinals in their stadium before the start of the official match vs Hertha BSC Berlin

We showed this video in the stadium today before our football match vs. Hertha BSC Berlin. The club is super proud of what the team has achieved this split. Let's make them even prouder! #S04WIN

That's pretty cool. Does anybody happen to have a video of how it looked like from inside the stadium?

Edit: Here is a picture of it (from this tweet). Thanks to /u/kinzu7 and /u/faladu.

Just a reminder to always believe in yourself even if no one else will.

Don't take shit from anyone, work harder & work smarter.

I've been playing since Season 2 ended. Today, after 6 years of being hardstuck silver over 1000+ ranked games, I hit gold.

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 07:54 AM PDT

Just really excited! As an ADC main, to finally hit Gold in Season 8 means I went on a truly spiritual journey to actually learn how to play the game the right way. Don't let your dreams be dreams. You can accomplish anything if this loser can hit gold after being more hardstuck than Riot will be for the next few years in legal battles. Love you all.

Edit: Heres my op.gg so you can try a little harder to flame me than just saying "yikes." http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=cows%201100

Edit 2 so my post doesnt get deleted: To all the people asking for advice, or asking me to duo, I really dont think that's what you want. Its literally all mental. Just keep practicing, stay positive, and the big one is self accountability. You have to know what you did, and how you can do better next time. Learn to be passive when necessary, and push your advantages to the max when you can. But mostly, HAVE FUN. You need to be enjoying yourself. Be hard on yourself but laugh it off, and get in to the next one with the right kind of chip on your shoulder. I still love all of you regardless of the flame. <3

GoldenGlue on what it's like to be coached by Reapered

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 08:23 AM PDT

I would love a Baker Fiora skin that smacks people with baguettes.

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 01:56 AM PDT

If Fiora could have a skin that was similar in theme to Pantheon and Leona, I would absolutely die of happiness. Something that I love about the concept of the skin is that Fiora, a refined and (admit it) snobby character could go running around, striking fear into the 'earts of her adversaries, who tremble when they think of the bread that may signify their doom. This is so blatantly off-character that it would be fun, hilarious, interesting, and enjoyable as an addition towards an already great character. Lots of Fiora's skins are quite serious, and a silly skin like this would be very appreciable.

Some possible quotes:

  • When both Fiora & Pantheon have skins equipped: "Atreus (Pantheon), are you going to leave the baguettes in the oven?"
  • "No, no, no, that is NOT golden brown!"
  • "Rye so serious?"
  • "THE BREAD! IT'S BURNIIIIING!" (summoner spell ghost activated (running to save the bread from burning))
  • Taunt: "Hm, flaky. Just like you."
  • Beginning of game: "Stop loafing around!"
  • Pentakill: "Do I always have to do everything around here?"
  • To ally Brand, 1st time meeting after beginning of game: "Do you mind stoking the oven for me?"
  • Witnessing ally death: "You're shift's not over yet!"

Possible art:

  1. In the kitchen: Fiora holding onto a chef's hat while running to save the burning pastries
  2. Serving: Fiora carrying a platter of croissants
  3. In front of a fire: Fiora resting a baguette on her shoulder
  4. In the middle of the bakery: Fiora inspecting a baguette

Gameplay:

Vitals: A cupcake between two croissants

W Riposte stun: Struck with a coat of flour (particles similar to Gargoyle's Stoneplate)

R Grand Challenge heal: a slowly rotating tart, cake, or macaron

Death: faceplants into pie

Let me know what you think about this idea!

I think club tags shouldnt be unique for the way clubs are handled right now

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 11:56 AM PDT

Clubs became the opposite of what they should have been.

They were created to create little communities so people could bond together.

They were created to find people with similar interest and provide a way to interact with them.

They were created to serve a place for communication and cooperation.

They were create to be an open plattform.

But they became non of it. They became what they feared.

They became collectibles of their own tag. They became a place of dust and isolation. They became their own nightmare.

At least old chat system gave an open space to join other random people or even play with rioters....

Guardian's AP ratio in the description is wrong, unless it's actually supposed to give 1 shield per 400 AP. It's supposed to be 25% or 0.25, not 0.25%

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 11:12 AM PDT

Guardian's current in-game description. Just a small typo, but still needs to be fixed since it's very misleading

I really need an All Might - Galio skin

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 07:44 AM PDT

This is probably impossisble due to copyright but I think it would be fantastic. They are really both big and good. Especially the R would be great with the "Have no fear, I am here".
Maybe just a Super Hero skin could fit, sure more a champ like galio than teemo

Cody Sun - "Thoughts on today"

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 06:30 PM PDT

http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sql5at

"Just for clarity sake, I have not sustained any injuries nor did I have a family emergency to attend to. The decision for Rikara to play in the TL series was strictly a decision made by the coaching staff of the team. I was instructed to watch the game from home and be ready in case I needed to be subbed in. Even though I wasn't playing it still sucks to see my teammates lose, knowing all the time and effort that everyone has put into this week. Props to Rikara for playing his heart out in a very difficult match-up vs Doublelift and to the rest of my teammates for trying their best today. Thank you to all the fans whom were concerned about me and for everyone who cheered for 100Thieves in our matches today."

Sounds like it was purely a coaching decision to bench him today. Weird that they would have him be at home but ready to play?

DL is on fire^^ I guess he started to pick his chances with cosplayers. He miss Caitlyn but can not miss this one =D C9 vs TL will be so much hype. Lets hope Sneaky will not be benched to the home in case they need him to sub in. I really want to see if C9 decides to start with GGlue vs Pob

App to find your Pentakills

Posted: 03 Sep 2018 02:43 AM PDT

Hi guys,

I wrote an App to find all the Pentakills you achieved in any game in the last 3 years. I didn't find something like this, so I thought it might be interesting to have something like this.

Problem there is, that the app has to go through every game in the match history and look up if a Pentakill has occured. This will take some time for the first time you look up a summoner. Once a game has been looked up, it will be saved in a database, so the next time this game won't take any time.

It might happen that you browser stops loading. But because the games are stored, you can just restart the search and it will continue at the point where it stopped.

After the App went through all the Games, it shows the Games in which you, a teammate or an enemy scored a Pentakill. You can click on each Game to see a few more stats.

The link to the App is:

www.trucad.de

Some things like filtering for Seasons aren't working as intended yet. If you have some ideas i could add/change, please let me know.

Edit: The calls the API-Key that I got from reddit for the App, are restricted, so it might happen, that you have to wait a bit sometimes if there are a few people are searching simultaniously.

Edit: Seems like something went wrong with my programming for the EUNE-Server. I will look into this and add all other Servers in the next few days.

Additionally, I have to change my way of working with the ratelimit exceeding. So far I just used a timer, that was given from the api after the limit was exceeded. But riot stopped the key from working for now because of that.

I will change my method and maybe repost here on reddit when i am done with that. Until then I have to take it offline, I am sorry :(

Sam definitely struggled today but we are super proud of him for stepping up in these circumstances against the likely league MVP in the semi finals for his first ever LCS appearance. The coaches played Rikara today because they thought he gave us the best chance to win. Obviously things didn't go how we hoped, but we are looking ahead to next week and hopefully worlds! Definitely a lot more pleased with today than our last match against TL
