I understand the feeling. This used to (and sometimes still does) happen to me. My advice is to try improving on your own play, and analyzing patterns in the enemy's play that could potentially be exploited. For example: if they have lots of gap closers, and tend to engage hard at the start of a teamfight (like a lot of players at that tier), try playing using a form of "Guerrilla warfare", so to speak. Get lots of vision on the map, hide in strategic positions, and essentially use...

I think this could work (with a fast, burst heavy team comp), but it could also be very reckless. The jungler can die surprisingly fast by engaging 2v3 (I have learned this the hard way), and leaving an immobile carry alone with an assassin is a big mistake on the support's part. When playing against this type of strategy, I believe just sticking together and trying to CC the carry's attacker is the best option. This way, since the team is well connected, you can most likely save the...

Keep in mind that the system for the Vain Crystal is very new and unexpected, as well as the speed boost from the river. Based on this, it appears that SEMC is just playing around with different ideas for 5v5, so they'll probably tweak, remove, and otherwise adjust the details of the map before its release (as you had mentioned, it's still in alpha phase). I understand how some players might want 5v5 to be longer, but, personally, I prefer shorter and more fast-paced matches. However, we...

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I was referring to the Churnwalker guide, and upon checking again I've realized that it is shown as a normal guide when I view it here, but not when I go here. But I now understand that this is because mine was a build guide, and the rest in the second link were saved as another guide type. Thanks for the assistance.

I think I see now. When I filter the guide type as "all", mine and all of the others are visible. However, I notice that my guide is a bit longer than a few that have been listed as a normal guide, so why is it that the guide I created isn't viewable under the default filter, but those that are shorter can still be viewed there? Thank you for your help so far, by the way.

Hello. I've noticed that certain guides I've seen before are no longer visible in the list of guides for a specific hero, one of mine included. Why is this? I'm not upset or concerned about it, I was just want to better understand how these things work.

Sorry for the late reply. But to answer your question: I don't believe I have. In theory, it works pretty well, so I'll be sure to test that composition out. EDIT: upon reading over the last section of the guide, I've realized that I have in fact tried CP Joule. Nevertheless, I will be sure to try that out more.

This and this may help you out. But if you just want a quick summary: then they pretty much just buffed energy and reworked the crystal tree. I could be missing something though, so I recommend reading up on those patch notes.

I'll join. This seems like an interesting idea.

Well I'm back earlier than expected. It seems like I just needed a break, and things going on irl were probably a factor in making me so irritated. I apologize for the semi-dramatic rant.
