I think, Foopah, you should come and ask us on LoL-related things more often on this thread. We rarely see you here. We have a thriving LoL community here in Southperry, and you should be thankful that we have people here who play a huge variety of champs, and are willing to help you if you ask. My point is, if you don't seek the help you need, you will not improve. You probably asked for help from others, but its OK to ask for more help if you need it. I did that when I started playing, and it helped tremendously. Being exposed to a variety of strategies, item builds, play styles, etc do enrich your knowledge and gameplay experience in LoL, even though if you don't agree on one player's interpretation of a champ's item build and play style, for instance. (Example: Me using Wriggles on jungle Rammus and >Pineapple disagreeing with me on it. In the end, we still disagree, but I can see why >Pineapple doesn't like Wriggles on a jungle Rammus).
Also, people will know who you are. This turns into many perks for you.
At the very least, start learning how to play smart. I don't like making assumptions in the first place, but I'm saying this based on your match record.
I didn't know that there was one until very recently, and I've been reading the back posts to see what I can learn from others playing as well. It is interesting to see what people are doing to gain experience in this game and I believe it will be helpful.
One thing, I have been playing more smart, and teaming up with people I know to train up and become a better player, not just on a champion. I'm slowly expanding out to other champions to learn the different methodology in playing this game, but as Kaj has pointed out, there is a huge learning curve, and I'm still on that curve.
As for my match record, that's what you get when you train wrong/badly in the beginning. 12 levels of that does that to you. My play record lately has been WAY better since I've started playing smarter/more aware.
I've gotten lots of great advice these past 2 months, mostly Jin helping me train and Josh pitching in when he can. Give me a few months, and my record will start reflecting the changes I've undergone.
