I notice you play mostly ADCs, do you play Kennen ADC as well?

Definitely. Lux is insanely good right now (especially with the Dark Seal being a starting item), and nobody knows how to do anything properly during off-season. You can probably make Gold before Season 6 even starts if you try for it. That's exactly what I did utilizing a champion with a similar playstyle to Lux. (Vel'koz)

What happens if I get to gold pre season? I thought pre-season doesnt matter o-o

Playing ranked in Pre-season raises your hidden MMR rating (think ELO), which carries over partially between seasons.

It works something like this:

0-999 MMR is Bronze
1000-1299 MMR is Silver
1300-1599 MMR is Gold
1600-1899 MMR is Plat
1900-2199 MMR is Diamond
2200+ is Master/Challenger I believe.

When the season starts, it takes your old MMR, add 1200 to it, and then divides it by 2. (Effectively bringing everyone closer to Silver 3/2 level)


When the season ended, I was at 1000 MMR because I did placements and never played again.

1000 + 1200 = 2200 / 2 = 1100 MMR.
My starting MMR for placements would be Around Silver 4/3, and I would place based on how I did at that spot.


Right now my MMR is 1400.

1400 + 1200 = 2600 / 2 = 1300.
My MMR when the season starts will be Gold from the get-go, and since I have a ~70% winrate where I am I can expect a 7-3, and so a positive placement. (Most likely putting me somewhere around Gold 4/3)



So yeah, if you can get to gold during off-season, it makes it a million time easier to place in gold during the season itself.



Edit: I forgot to add - you can find your hidden MMR, or at least a good estimate of it, from Op.gg

Ohhh... okay I knew there was something about that but people kept telling me otherwise

i didnt realize that mmr was split into tiers like that, although its kind of obvious if i think about it

i havent played league in about 4 months because college but in a few days ill be home playing again, probably just for fun

 

[That Zephyr Guy]

I love how I don't get a penta in my entire first year of playing and then I get two in the same week. Okay.

Spoiler: A fun bonus

Look at me ult in the opposite direction of the teamfight.
Go me.

 

[RainbowCherry]

Ooh, I just started playing League. I'm a level 2... but it's fun. Out of the short time I've played, Poppy and Jinx are my favourites. I.e the only ones I've played.
