Okay, so yesterday I jumped into some ARAM games on League of Legends. I’ve been trying to up my win rate, you know, not be stuck in this endless cycle of winning one, losing one. I heard from some folks online that win streaks really boost your LP and MMR, so that’s been my focus.
First off, let me tell you, ARAM is wild. It’s all random, all middle, straight into the Howling Abyss. I tried to remember some tips I saw floating around the internet, even though most of them were pretty old and basic. Stuff like “x tips to get better” – not exactly groundbreaking.
The first few games were a mess. I got some champs I barely knew how to play, and it felt like I was just feeding the enemy team. I tried to focus on getting takedowns, since I was using those runes that get stronger with each kill or assist, but it wasn’t easy. It’s like a constant brawl in there, and if you’re not on your A-game, you’re basically a walking bag of gold for the other team.
Not Giving Up
I wasn’t about to give up that easily, though. I mean, who wants to be stuck with a 50% win rate forever? That’s not exactly Diamond-level, right? I took a short break, grabbed some water, and thought about what I could do better.
- Switching it up: I started being more mindful of my team comp and what we needed. If we were lacking a tank, I’d try to grab a more durable champ.
- Focusing fire: Instead of just throwing out abilities randomly, I tried to focus on the same target as my teammates. Made a huge difference in those team fights.
- Playing it safe(r): I’m not saying I became a coward, but I definitely stopped diving headfirst into every fight. Sometimes, it’s better to hang back, poke, and wait for the right moment to engage.
After these adjustments, things started to turn around. I managed to snag a few wins in a row, and it felt great. I could almost feel my MMR climbing. It’s not like I suddenly became a pro or anything, but I definitely felt more in control of the game. The games were still tough, but now I felt like I was actually contributing, and it showed in my results. Now I feel like there is hope for me to win more in League of Legends!
