League Of Legends 1v1 Map The Magma Chamber

[Sonic Boom]

Hello guys this is a thread for just a bit talk on this new upcoming 1v1/2v2 map from riot games for the game LEAGUE OF LEGENDS
Well I have been outta league of legends for like 3 months by now and this thing has gotten my attention so I wanted to know if still someone is playing lol?
secondly if yes then does anyone knows by which date it is coming? [cuz probably the gamers of a game know it more than a non gamer]
Sry if this post is counted as a waste but yeah I wanna know all this and want to practice again for this 1v1 thingy because i had only left lol because of the noob players playing in ranked with 0 teamwork and always being selfish and this thing is kinda a solution to it ]

Yes. Quite a lot of people including me are still playing LoL.
I play on the EUNE servers.

secondly if yes then does anyone knows by which date it is coming? [cuz probably the gamers of a game know it more than a non gamer]

I do not believe that anyone, probably not even Riot knows when it is coming out. Depends on how well the development etc. goes.

There are countless of videos and information on why that sort of mindset is what is causing one to lose. The best solution is to get out of that mindset, and realize that the reason why you are playing with people who are bad, is because you yourself is bad. Then focus on improving and get better. Teamwork will gradually increase as you get higher in the ranks.
That said there is still teamwork in lower ranks.
(I haven't actually played ranked, I have however played a lot of blind pick, and seeing as it is based on the same ranking system I'd expect it to be the same.)

Well Someone else you are right about the ranking thing but there is still something there ...
as in Dota 2 i played like 400+ games already and I still don't think that i am even good even though I might be equally as good as in lol and therefore I still regard dota 2 as having better players [idk why but they are better at doing teamwork with everyone] but whereas in lol if you say like you wanna go mid then there will be atleast 1 retarded guy who will say I MID OR FEED [same goes for all other roles]. Which makes lol more kind of hero picks based game as in dota you can even own people with a support hero if you are a good player and you know what are you doing. [Example: You cant carry with a support hero like sona, thresh, janna _Alone_ / with a decent guy in lol (Unless the other team is very bad) whereas in dota 2 there are support hereos like wisp, dazzle, omniknight which just with only 1 good/decent guy can change the whole 2v5 fight and probably win it.(well actually if u combine a huskar + dazzle or chaos knight + wisp its gg even in 2v5 fights)]

woah woah woah a loL-discussion, time to jump in for me

1.Magma-Chamber

I think this map is announced since i play LoL, and thats since Season 1.
At first it was ment to be a 5v5 map with longer lanes, different monsters and buffs as well as a special teleporatation system.
As lazy as Riot is, the map never came out.
Now when it came to the All-Star votings for the european team, it was a head to head race between Wickd and Soaz for the toplane position.
They decided to make a best of 5 1on1 top lane, the winner would get the spot.
Soaz came out on top, winning 3:2 with a (imo lame) nunu pick ( imo lame cause nunu is a champ for 1on1, but u cant realy play him competitive in a 5v5 matchup on toplane) in the last match.
This 1on1 had such a big succes, over 140k people were watching Wickd's stream, the largest number of people watchign a stream from a private person.
Even Riot was exited about that, in the next couple of days and weeks, more and more information about the new 1v1/2v2 magma chamber map was given to the community.
As it seems like atm, the map will probalby released on the normal servers with the beginning of Season4.
Apart from that we can see it in action at the All-Star playoffs this weekend as the pros will battle each other there.

Here some more in detailed information:

2. Ranked play on LoL

ha, classic discussion here
well there are tons of videos and thoughts about ranked play of Lol out here, i cant go over all of them but i will tell you sth which helped myself to improve and raise some elo.
Once i also thought, omg my teammates are so bad, im in elo hell ( it was bronze at these days, divisions didnt exist^^).
So what to do to get out of "elo-hell"?
well, at first u gotta remember, elo-hell doesnt exist. It's just a dumb mindset a lot of players got when they cant gain elo, or nowadays League-points.
The thing is, u gotta focus on your own game. You don't play solo queue to improve your team, you play solo queue to improve yourself. That means u just dont always have to think, oh gawd, my team faked up so hard, botlane feeding, jungler doesnt gank, supp sux. You have to think about your personal gameplay in a match. What could You have made better in this situation, what could have you done on your own to change the outcome of this game.
I tell u one thing, the moment you stop complaining about your team and the outcome of a game, and start just concentrating on improving your own gameplay, u start enjoying rankeds and you will get up in the ladder automaticly, trust me

EDIT: holy moly dont tell me u cant carry with supports like tresh, bc or sona, cause its easily possible dude
