How you choose a main role? My elo is emerald because I otped diana and climbed till diamond but I dont like playing diana anymore and if I move to other role it kinda feels like im inting because I dont have the level, and even if I had the level Im not sure what to play. I like top but im terrible at it, I like jungle but some times I feel lost and the champs are not funny at all, I like mid but I get autofill in secondary role a lot of times so it annoying, I like adc but some times my support tilt me so hard and I dont think im mechanicaly blessed to play it at a high level. I like support but not at the point to play it forever

I switch roles constantly these days as well, but in general its either about: You like the championpool of the lane (which is not really a thiny anymore tbh), you onetrick a champ, you like the primary playstyle of the role, or something else. Either you get drawn to the champs or to the roles. If you like assassins youll probably play mid+jgl, if you like bruisers/tanks top/jgl are probably the roles, if you want to become a playmaker and make crazy engages top/jgl/support etc. So ig start by thinking: Why did you like diana? Did you like her single target burst? Her engage and combo potential with other characters? Did you like her fast and mobile playstyle? did you play her jungle or lane?

queue timer not working. now I am getting banned from queue. what it does is it shows that I am queuing but not when It found a match it just continuous with the queue. If this continous and my queue ban becomes more severe then this is probably a sign that I will stop this addiction for good.
This is what I did
Restarted my PC
Logged out and in of Riot Games
Reinstalled Framework and C redistributable
inbound + outbound settings in Firewall

Hello,
I play aram mayhem on NA servers nowadays, but time is limited due to work. I was wondering if theres a group of that I could join that would actually try to win. I'm pretty feed up with randoms I get or games where we play squishies vs 5 brusier/tanks with heartsteel. I know that game mode is suppose to be 'for fun', but my time is limited and would actually like to win. DM if you guys want to tag together for aram mayhems in NA servers

About Udyr's Q, can the extra damage from the active critically strike?
Udyr enters Claw Stance, empowering his next two basic attacks to gain 50 bonus range and deal bonus physical damage on-hit...

u/PomeloLow3800 5d ago
Nope, the bonus damage on his Q is on-hit, so it can't crit. Only the base attack damage part of the auto will crit.

Lets say I am level 10 use my ult, then I level up. What is the average amount of time it will take to go from lvl 11 -> lvl 12, depending on role (eg: top lane has the quest, mid lane doesn't have the quest, bot lane has shared xp) and based on the remaining cool down of my ult should I use the level skill point for a different ability understanding that I would level up again by the time my ult comes off cooldown?
and another breakdown for lvl 16 -> lvl 17

u/D3ath4ng3l 22h ago
No not really. Level 3 Ults are insane powerspikes, the only champs where you would never level the ult are champs like tryndamere which dont level ult at all. Even if you had one of the highest ult cds in the game like karthus or shen, you will most likely ult before you reach level 17.
For lvl 11 its basically the same thing.1
u/gangplank_main1 22h ago
i don't think you understand if my ult is on cooldown and i lvl up to lvl 11, i might hit lvl 12 and then have a skill point for my ult before my ult even comes off cool down

u/D3ath4ng3l 22h ago
Yes i understand that, but you wont reach lvl 12 before ult comes off cooldown. The only scenario where you would levelup before getting level 12, would be if you like splitpush get 10 waves and then make a 1v5 pentakill.

I did a quick pull of 200 silver/gold games from the riot games timeline api and found p25 - p75 for top laners range from 92 to 141 seconds to lvl up from lvl 11 -> 12. There are some niche picks that do have that long for ultimate cool down like shen whose base cool down for R starts at 200 seconds.
