[NA][S4] Sovietunion's Journey To Diamond [With Pictures]

I only started playing League of Legends back in the Spring of 2013 when League of Legends became really popular. At first I didn't think I was going to like the game but after giving it a shot it has become one of my favourite games of all time. After climbing from Bronze to Gold only 4 months after joining League of Legends, I felt pretty great at being able to climb to that position myself only a few months after joining. This season my goal is to reach Diamond 5 and to learn as much possible and have as much fun possible that I can. Since enjoying the game is the most important thing. ^_^ (I will not be using any elo boosts of any kind, that includes DuoQ boosting, I will be climbing the ladder myself)


I'll update the OP daily with pictures of every game I play and my current Tier/Division/LP. I'd appreciate feed back/tips if you have any to offer and I'd be happy to answer any questions you have. If you'd like to DuoQ with me I'd most likely be happy to and maybe we can both learn something.



Current Position
Gold II [ 82 LP ]

End Goal - Diamond 5



Best Roles (S4 from Best to Worst)
Top
Mid
Support
(Although I can play ADC and Jungle fairly well too)



Back in S3 I mainly played ADC, I then moved into Mid and settled on Top lane as my best lane.

Was busy so I was only able to play 1 game.

Goodluck on your goal to Diamond man!

 

Good luck. Should alternate roles. Doesn't seem like top is working out for you.

 

If you say you play Zac in the jungle you should be trying him top too just so you have AP top thats a bit more tanky than kennan.

 

There is a lot of feed in those logs lol.

Falling behind top is really difficult to recover from without serious help from jungle, Without seeing your games I couldn't really judge, but should work on surviving your lane and probably playing tanks.

Don't have to carry, just not be heavy

 

Most of the games I win lane and then start dying as I'm usually the only front line on my team. I always build 1 offensive item atleast for laning phase then straight tank. Usually I play Lee cause he's just more fun for me.
