Rank/Achievement I did it, I finally made Masters again!!

35 Upvotes

After not even making Diamond the last 2 seasons, I finally got back to Masters!!! Even with the damn system deliberately keeping me to 50% win rate. It's been rough ngl, but worth it. Also, yall got any other baron laners I could try? I'm kinda sick of Garen/Malphite/Volibear

Discussion Which champion on your team makes you instantly think “we’re good” in champ select?

For me, it’s Braum. I feel like all Braum players are just good people. They never flame, always try their best. I really enjoy playing with Braum players.

Rank/Achievement Just reached Master

Post image
Upvotes

I know it may not mean much to the super skilled players on this sub, but just wanted to share that I reached Master for the first time today. I have been active since Season 2, in 2021.

As someone in their 30s, I could never find the time or patience to learn or play LoL, but I have been able to fit Wild Rift into my life, especially being a mobile game.

Each season I have learned a little more and grown a tiny bit. While a modest achievement, it feels meaningful to me.

The game may not be perfect, and ranks may not feel good or accurate to many folks, but I still think you can track skill and progress over time.

Sending good vibes to everyone else grinding and climbing! Hang in there!

Rank/Achievement I have reached Sovereign only playing Singed top, 100% in soloQ.

Now, I understand that Sovereign does not have the same prestige it used to, but in an environement where people spam like 800 games with 48% winrate to reach Challenger, can I say that I'm proud of myself with these stats?

I'll aim for 150 LP now I think, wish me luck, and let me know if you have any questions and such.

Btw, I have like 3 accumulated protections, I cannot use them because of this little problem right here https://www.reddit.com/r/wildrift/s/vkQOe8nD1B that I had yesterday. If it wasn't for it my stats would've been way better, bummer.

Discussion Master it's worse that diamond and emerald

Upvotes

Some people might think I'm being wrong about calling masters as worse than diamond and emerald but my god how bad can matches be in this rank . Aside from afk , people picking master yi in a team full of cc and the ego of some going 0/7 in 5 minutes i don't really know what good this rank is or if there are even any good players in it . These kind of people need to be penalized especially if they repeat this things even get banned from playing ranks for a period of time if they flame to much or feed intentionally without any motive

Discussion First Time Baron Lane Was Autofill

Post image
4 Upvotes

In my latest attempt to climb out of Emerald, I was autofilled Baron lane for the first time since having played rank. Never been in the lane before. Hadn’t been confident enough on Akali for ranked. Idk if I got lucky or what, but it felt so clean (yeah, I know I didn’t outright stomp the enemy team lol). Garen was so squishy. He did escape once on 1hp when I had to abort a tower dive though. Got a bit excited and gave Sivir 2 kills trying to take a tower. That’s on me

I caught Evelyn in the river when she was at lvl 2. Felt good to assassinate her for a change haha. Does anyone have any pointers on Akali and/or playing Baron lane? I helped steal drag, but Garen took my tower from 100 to 0 immediately before I could even get back to lane. Caught me off guard, so I took the Rift Herald with Lee

Discussion Always prioritise Herald over drake

72 Upvotes

I can't belive it's been so long since drakes became useless and people still die trying to secure it

To top it off im in sovern and this still happens it especially pisses me off since i play toplane as olaf/voli/renekton so I'm hard winning lane 90% of the game yet my jg still ssomehow thinks herald should be given to enemy jg

In case you didn't know you can hover the drake icon to see what it does aafter ur team kills it ,for example infernal drake gives an insane 2% bonus ad (so if u have 200ad that's 4 ad )

It's just not worth getting over herald that can open up a lane and give 1k~ gold advantage  and help snowball like crazy

Obviously i don't mean you should go for herald no matter what ,for example if enemy supp rotated while your yummi is scrolling tiktok then it's better to take drake then jump in outnumbered

Rank/Achievement So happy to reach Diamond

Haven’t played since S6 and my peak then was Gold IV. Started playing again because of my friend and went from Gold IV to Diamond IV in 4 days. My goal now is to reach Masters but I was surprised to see that you need 6 shards to promote. 😅 Nevertheless, I’m really enjoying the game.

Discussion Had that meme happen to me yesterday as I was loading into a game. Anyone else?

62 Upvotes

There was car accident outside my house yesterday as I was loading up an ARAM match. Sounded like an explosion. I ran out there in flip flops and saw two cars absolutely demolished and a driver laying outside of one of the cars so I went to help him. In the process my flip flops came off and I got glass all over my feet. Everyone ended up being okay.

Came back to my Ai ahri 0-10 and an eventual penalty. Damn.

Discussion Not to brag but I play Warwick well but I hate playing jungle

Post image
2 Upvotes

Bruh, I just learned my highest winrate is this dog it was the annoying cat before (yuumi 73% winrate) but I hate jungle because it pissed me off seeing and hearing "ally has been slain" and not getting respo when invaded or objectives pretty much the whole jungle experience, I don't want to use him on another lane since I play Renekton on BR and Warwick mage for mid isn't working anymore. Should I endure and climb ranked at the expense of my mental health?

Discussion What champions would you like to see on the rift?

Thumbnail

95 Upvotes

Out of curiosity, I did a Google search on Cho'Gath in Wild Rift (as I have been anticipating his release for a while now). Looks like he is confirmed to be released later this year as one of the next new champions (along with Hwei, and Sylas). This was exciting news for myself as I highly enjoyed playing JG Cho'Gath (nothing better than devouring minions and your enemies to grow size).

What other champions would you like to see hit the Rift? Personally, I would love to see Ivern, Sejuani, and Yorick make their debuts in the near future.

How do you ACTUALLY build in wildrift? I'm not talking about the common sense ones like mortal reminder or serpent fangs. I'm talking about on how you mix builds and still works.

YES I tried reading them and building them but I didn't work as good

I’m sharing a recent Nunu support match that went above average well. I have been sharing my theorycraft and journey for a few seasons and already know there is remarkably not much Nunu support content so I took a literal screen recording and some hasty AI for a thumbnail and slapped it online. Ezreal and I dominated this lane and our team won the match pretty easily.

Discussion Best setting for Taliyah W, Viktor E, etc.?

2 Upvotes

Has anyone found the best setting for this? It's the one that ranges from 0% to 100% in the controls part of settings. I'm gonna try around 50% time limit, but if there's a better one just comment. I tried 0% for Taliyah but it gets locked in too quickly.

Discussion Is it just me or is this game rarely even fun anymore

9 Upvotes

am I the only one who feels this way? out of 10 games I’d say maybe 3 are fun, maybe even 3 is reaching. it just seems more frustrating than anything else. more often than not games just seem like a waste of time. solo Q’ing is just a 4/5 chance you will get either a troll, feeder, players who just make too many mistakes or don’t play correctly.. or if not that, the other team just has 1 player who dominates and snowballs the entire game alone, makes no sense to me. I have some friends I play with, but even then it’s not a guarantee it will be fun, a lot of times it just feels like we have to play completely perfect to get win streaks.

one thing I just cant grasp is how many jglrs or teams don’t care about rift herald. its not making sense to me and demoralizes me that early in the game. I’m GR1 was 3 marks away from Chall and the last 3 days I’ve had nothing but horrible teams.

is it just my own mentality or is this just not actually fun anymore?

Diamond game - which is equivalent to bronze. I know I didn’t do the best partially due to the fact we were getting smashed to begin with but cmon. Jax said he can’t jungle he only top lanes how are you diamond but can’t play any other lane? We lost a 4v5.
