League of Legends is without a doubt one of the most popular and successful MOBA titles right now. It boasts a player count of nearly eight million. Given the number of people playing the game, it also means that there are countless experienced players out there. If you have been trying to improve your odds and climb the rank ladder, then you have come to the right place. Here are some tips worth keeping in mind!
Always Know Your Champions
This is actually a no-brainer. Believe it or not, though, many players still underestimate the importance of knowing a chosen champion. By doing so, you are able to understand their abilities and can help come up with dozens of synergies with your own favorite champions. This also significantly helps in countering your opponents’ picks.
If you are unable to name all of your selected champions’ five abilities, then you are going to have a problem. If this is something you cannot do, then you should not start playing ranked for now.
Pick Your Favorite Champion
As long as you specialize at playing a certain champion, then your chances of quickly climbing the rankings are high. Not only will you be able to focus on being in the right place at the right time, but you can also help set your team up for victory.
Going from unlocking a new champion to consistently “maining” one is not an easy thing to do. It will not happen overnight. It is going to take a lot of time, but that is okay. Just make sure that with other champions you might focus on, you must learn how to synergize best and worst with him/her. More importantly, do not forget to learn the right mechanics to employ the character.
Just Stay Calm
Sometimes, players love to hate themselves whenever they get frustrated. Yes, there is nothing wrong with being self-critical. After all, you just want to improve. However, if you are going to do the same thing, then do not expect a different result. League of Legends is a complicated game, one that requires your utmost patience. There will be days when you just keep losing, but it is important to never become too bothered or even frustrated. No matter how mechanically gifted you are, it cannot help.
Just remember to scrutinize your plays and learn from them. Do not take things seriously, but do not be arrogant as well. Again, just stay calm and know that it is just a game. If you want to improve, learn from your mistakes.
