  • try playing on 900 elo and tell me if theres no elo hell

  • Is this you first ranked game with Irelia? Or is it it your actual first game in general with Irelia?

  • idk if it helps me to climb out of elo hell but i tried 2 games with this build and this guide and both were wins. For everyone try it its rlly good , btw i was owning galio there and tryn there ( on tryn just dont let him stack his red line or rage or whatever it is )

  • Usually the only way to win in elo hell is if two lanes win. which is why duo queue is so good. (one top, other mid) The last game I played I risked it, I was Irelia top and killed their top twice. but our bot lane fed HARD. like theyd only be in lane for 2 minutes before the enemy got a double kill. luckily, our ahri won her lane against annie. then me and ahri carried our entire cruddy team.

  • Reason this means nothing is annie carried, and the other team focused the tanks rather then the carries. This just means he was lucky enough to have a non retarded team and he played against bad players.

  • Wow, really so stupid, how alot of people say elo hell doesnt exist, but theyre in like 1000-1300 rating..

    Dear fuckers, go inside into 800-900 elo, and you'll see that elo hell does exist..

    If your not below 1000 elo, you cant talk shit about elo hel existing or not

  • i want to ask is it better to jungle or lane if u want to get elo and if its to lane which 1

  • wow wriggles vs ap heavy team:P? U dont want it on irelia, get hp, double null magic mantle

    I played on mine friends account for a week, played a lot of 'elo hell games, about 60...lost 4. 400-1200 so it's kinda possible and it was when I was much worse than now

  • 900 gold @ ur lvl 6 is kinda....bad tbh:P and u can get aggresive vs specific junglers but ure agains ap alistar and irelia sux on low lvls(well not suck but till...4-5 u can do nothing)

  • loool you think 1300 is elo hell??LOOL! get over it, try 1000 elo :)

  • ExoGenesis? That is a cool fucking name.

  • Thumbs up for using elixir after teamfight ! ;) 18:10 - 18:30

  • Comment removed

  • omg just played Irelia...

    3 Wins

    12-3

    11-3

    14-3

    carried every game without me 100% lose..

    BETTER NERF IRELIA!

  • 1300 is not elo hell. Come play with me at 1100 and tell me there is no elo hell (;

  • 1300 Isn't consider Elo Hell by most. 1300 is usually where the noobs doesn't make it past. Go down even lower.

  • ...im am using atmas impaler,sword of the divine,phantom,blood thirster or black clever..and frozen mallet if u want hitter....no tank can survive

  • @fjkarlojntibrs You're not trying to kill tanks as Irelia. Your focus is to get the AD carries, the one that will affect your team the most.

  • ....man...I love your Country

  • This was a decent game with decent players on each team. I see no elo hell here.

  • @valcearulz Elo hell isnt all about having shitty players, its more about the douchebags. Like that annie.

  • You bought Warmog+ Trinity (Phage) and dont Buy Atmars? - What The hell ? You had around 3500 HP -- 70 Ad ... Instead of a Wriggles,lol.

  • @leaguetopten

    Could you make an irelia guide please? I've tried all types of builds , if i build damage im squishy, and if i build tanky I dont do any damage so basicly im just there to like, stand and die.

    Please make a detailed Irelia guide with items runes masteries and all that good stuff :)

  • "nashooooor"

  • 1300 is elo hell?

  • If Ashe wasn't horrible with her arrows this would have probably been a totally different game....

  • yo, do you still play LoL?

  • What happens in elo hell if you are a decent player.

    1. You jungle: all lanes fail and cry for ganks.

    2. Go mid: You win your lane but bot feeds like hell, top just gives up, jungler doesn't do anything.

    3. Top: bot still fails and jungler feeds that shaco 5 kills....

    4. Go bot: you win your lane, get first tower+dragon, top loses 2 towers, mid just fails with 8 minion kills in 10 minutes...

  • @PrimalDialga123 Couldn't agree more. that is the reason why i am less than 800 elo right now. People whine about elo hell not existing but the funny thing is they are all at like 1.2 or 1.3k elo, if they got to the 800s they'd realize how impossible it is to come back from, even though my other account is 1.7k and I play pro

  • Its funny I watch this video so often because what he says is so true at times lol. What isnt true is that in an actual elo hell your not just gonna have a 0-2 in all lanes your gonna have 0-5. Your team is not going to be able to do anything in teamfights and they wont. 2 people will leave or start to give up. You dont have a good jungler and the enemy team all know what theyre doing like you.

  • 1300 isn't exactly elo he'll or we'd all be in it from the get go :S

  • @Kamerloon I got 1300 from winning a couple games o-e, it is kind of the get go.

  • 1300s is horrid i want out :(

  • What the hell? You don't believe in Elo Hell? 1300 ISN'T ELO HELL MY FRIEND. I've played 23 SQ games and I've had 7 leavers. The chances of me (apparently being the changing factor if I don't belong in that ELO) is extremely slim if any of filling the roll of 2 champions at the same time. No, Elo hell is NOT impossible to get out of, its the fact that it is DIFFICULT to get out of, very difficult. By ELO hell I mean 700-800 ELO, that is hell where people insta-lock Kalye with Clarity/Heal.

  • I farking love your commentary Faro! word up on everything you said!

  • HOW DO YOU STOP IRELIA!?!?!!? We played a 5v5 and she just completely wiped the floor with us, and in this video, you wiped the floor on 4v5.

  • FUCK THIS SHIT I FUCKING BOUGHT IRELIA WENT RANKED AND GOT A SCORE 20/3 AND LOST CAUSE OUR FUCKING PANTHEON NEVER CONNECTED

  • Your winning this one game is not statistically significant.  I'm not saying ELO hell exists, but for the message you are trying to convey, you need to play your friend's account out of ELO hell (or at least make significant progress in that direction)--not just win one or two games.

  • @JiangalangG elo hell is 1250 and below.you cant get up again ur screwed.

  • @JiangalangG Ummm...I climbed his rating 400 points in less than thirty games. I didn't just win "one or two games."

  • @leaguetopten which champ did u play most? Irelia?

  • bad ww. Lmao

  • why go back so early? you shoulda farmed till trin force, thats what i do anyways

  • lol annie was being a douche mid game

  • @leaguetopten well faro this is 1300 and this isnt elo hell, elo hell is 1200 or lower. and im for example bad at carying games and so i cant get out of elo hell. play ranked with my friend with high elo and i have no problem at all surviving. i even played on his account and my score was still possitive. so i call ur theorry bullshit

  • @maikyboy12345 elo hell is being put with people worse than you but not gaining elo, this doesn't make sence because if they're all worse than you, you should get fed easily and carry.

  • @chipipackettt Cant carry 1v5 guy

  • @chipipackettt omg have u even listenend im not good at carrying games

    i ussually play support or tank

  • @maikyboy12345 I once fell to 900 elo and I had the time of my life destroying people.

  • @leaguetopten Faro, do you recommend that I buy Irelia then? I do like a Tanky DPS that can initiate and clean up but are there better choices that your friend just didn't have on the account?

  • I've known other people to usually go 0/9/21 with Irelia.

    So my question is which is better in your opinion: 0/21/9 or 0/9/21?

  • @Amaysn09 Depends entirely on what you have to be doing, if you know you're going to be the only guy in there then full defensive is the way to go, otherwise Presence of the Master is like the best mastery point of all time.

  • umm...whats happend to all the live stream games? says theyre all private.

  • what happen to the iem? why is it private?

  • i see why i keep losing...

    1. I expect Annie or another tank to initiate.

    2. Expect our carries to focus someone other than their tank.

    3. Expect people to not feed snowballing champs.

    4. Expect my team not to go in one by one.

    5. Expect people to buy wards.

  • @PrimalDialga123 You shouldn't expect anything. That's why it's called solo-queue. You have to drag the retards to victory one game at a time.

  • I got myself out of elo hell with jungle trundle

  • Just went 21-4 on my first game as Irelia, thanks for persuading me to buy her Faro :) Shame i wasted 6.3k IP on Lee Sin, hes nowhere near as fun imo.

  • Even after a harsh losing streak and dealing with pubs who want to AFK all day, your video has inspired me to try and play more league, with confidence in my heart and new advice in my mind. :D

  • This is what we would call stupid in my country lol says an American.

  • @Oamlzy Racist prick.

  • @ddrsephiroth Racist says an American, lol

  • @Oamlzy Actually, you're both pretty stupid. You can't be racist towards a nationality and if you really believe in that stereotype then you should not reproduce because there is enough douchebags in the world. However, this is coming from my saturated fat soaked American brain.

  • @Oamlzy And where are you from? You can't base an entire race of people off of a stereotype. Should I start saying all Europeans don't shave? Or the French are all cowards?

  • @Oamlzy What, did that not make sense?

  • ELO hell is pretty much anything under 1400-1450 rating.

    But well I can't tell from my own experiance both season 1 and 2 I got good early games so I became 1500+ right away.

  • lol @ description

    ''Annie gets caught''

  • lol, losing games always means your team has bad scores...don't see any validation in some people's arguments? Carrying means your stopping your team dying too.

    If you want to get out of "elo hell" play better, and stop making excuses for yourself. Not a single player in that game i would even consider good so they probably belong there.

  • This isn't elo hell this is just a standard game. If you carried yourself out of a game where your team is negative by 10 kills THEN it's an actual carry.

  • Damn faro I think we live in the same country

  • elo hell, i had 5 games in a row with teammates didnt just lose, 0/22 ash, 0/18 talon, 0/12 sona oh and I play it similarly to you

  • I frowned when he went GA instead of atmas.

  • Source on the awesome wallpaper at the end, any1?

  • @ChemoTherapy87 It's in the information.

  • lol 1300s is hell ( for me ) . Reginald is like HOLY SHIT IM 1400 fuckin elo hell ! blablabla

    depends on a player i guess

  • 1300 is elo hell -.-

  • hahahah, 1300 season 1 ELo hell? thats so stupid, the avarage season 1 was like 900.

  • once you've played in 1900+ for a long time, 1300 is just as bad as ELO Hell.

  • I learn alot

  • LOL.... the wall of irelia... she is so strong.. im buying her and lee sin next time i get payed !!

  • FARO THAT WAS UR BEST  :D/

    PLEASE BRING MORE OF THIS

  • 1300 is not elo hell

  • Faro, that was a fantastic commentary.

  • can anyone tell me what elo means?

  • @Boing99CombatArmsEu is the ranked games rating..

  • For whatever reasons, I cannot for the life of me play most melee champions including irelia. I can wreck ranged, but never melee any pointers would be appreciated, specifically irelia

  • i'll like and comment just for that awesome irelia art at the end (also for the rest of the commentary ofc :p)

  • love videos like this

    commentary is excellent

    *thumps up*

  • inb4tonsofireliafeeders invade low elo

  • Ok, but when there is in my team solo top, jungler and mid already and my team needs ranged ad carry or support. What then? should we pick them or still pick "do everything on my own"-champs? hm?

    I mean you can't do this strategy in each game.

  • @hasyly69 I simply asked for top lane politely in chat, at champion select. While you won't get it every game, I got it 22 out of 25 games. The other three times I jungled.

    As far as the question itself goes, you should get what your team needs.

  • lol at the chat.

  • try elo hell 700elo

  • @alohafoster21 if you are in 700 elo then you shoud stop playing this game.

  • @alohafoster21 thats what i had to deal with b4 elo wipe..... now im stuck at 1100 - 1250 elo hell... and cant rise :(

  • I'm sorry, but... You had some pretty awesome teammates... for what is usual, at least

  • You should never admit to playing someone else's account. Riot has banned people before for doing it, including Reginald. Next time just say he played the account and you sat next to him giving him tips or something.

  • oops i meant faro

  • real? annie was scolding spunkify for not doing anything at the start when he was farming and then at 17:39 she says thank god irelia farmed

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck that annie

  • Hey Faro, thank you for this video it was a great watch and hopefully will be a great help. I just have a few questions which I hope you will answer, mostly regarding Runes and Irelia. Do you prefer Alacrity Irelia over Desolation Irelia? Why Replenishment Seals instead of Clarity, they even out at level 6? Why Evasion Seals suggestion when her early stage is her weakest stage and with the Evastion Mastery, she only gets around 8.125% dodge chance or so?

    Hope you`ll reply.

  • @TenshiroNova If I don't have Clarity then that's actually an error int he guide and I will edit it, thank you for pointing that out. I do like Alacrity over Desolation because I believe Irelia's primary strength comes from her W, but armor penetration gives her a pretty significant boost to most of her damage sources.

    The dodge question is a little more complex. Basically, the way I see it, dodge is the best defensive stat for late game, but the only way to get it is ninja tabi.

  • @TenshiroNova Basically, against an AD heavy team, dodge is the one saving grace that melee have. A nimbleness proc at the right time or dodging a shot from a fed Tristana can be a game changer. It does depend entirely on the enemy team/my team/my lane though.

    For example, I'd never go dodge runes against Yorick since he'd run on me in lane. I would against Udyr, since you can dodge tiger stance. I wouldn't get dodge vs an AP heavy team, but I would if they had two dps and I was the tank.

  • what other champions you could recommend for solo queue?

  • @Magnamarak maybe jax? or orianna?

  • hey faro, do you agree with that annie's judgment when it comes to xin zhao's skills?

  • @25FLASHFIRE Not one bit. R>E>W>Q on Xin, imo.

  • you wanted a comment so here it is

  • 1300 is not elo hell.... LOL

  • Is it me or does 720 not look so well?

  • @isnay2003 It's probably not you, I've been recording in half size on fraps instead of full size which has been having a negative impact on some of the higher resolution stuff. It should be back to normal by my next vid.

  • so im buying irelia...

  • Faro went ham on them minions this game xD

  • annoying annie was annoying

  • That Annie...what an idiot.

  • Vision Fort, I'll have to remember that

  • Honestly I'd rather the video be LONGER and less sped up... too fast a lot of times and it is dizzying man... otherwise a good commentary

  • @shoelace510 Yah, I really didn't like it either, but I felt like it was better than a 35 minute video or just fading to ganks/team fights. What I might end up doing in the future is just splitting it into 2 videos and slowing it down a little bit.

  • ELO HELL MY ASSHOLE!!!!! Since when is 1300 elo elo hell? Try playing the default elo where everyone goes like 0/5

  • @rotate1950 lmfao 1300s us elo hell if ur below that shit ur fighting pure badies and u will prob never get to 1700+ and out of hell

  • @rotate1950 default elo for me was around 1200

  • @rotate1950 Thats flawed logic really, saying that other team is acctually good.

  • @rotate1950 I think everything below 1300-4 is ELO hell :)

  • @rotate1950 Yeah and its always on your team right never on the other team.If you are really a good player you will go up cause you are not only one who gets shitty teammates it happens all the time. And i love how ppl rage all the time when they play well and lets say go 9-2 with xin and they lose and then they rage on teammates but never do you pay attention when someone else on your team has a good score and loses cause of you or some1 else or som1 wins a game for you then you dont say shit..

  • @rotate1950 and you should be going 13-0 in those games getting stax early

  • @rotate1950 If everyones so bad, feed on them and carry

  • @rotate1950 Hey dude, if you want to get out of elo hell, team up with a friend ;P Works like a charm. Went on a 7 game winning spree =) and my friend isn't even that good. But at least he doesn't rage or surrender at 20 or stupid sh*t like that. This made me able to carry my entire team to victory x] oh how i love Lee Sin

  • @rotate1950 i LOL'd irl at this

  • @rotate1950 everyone goes 0/5? baron got a penta im guessing...

  • But we arnt going to because we are men!

  • we won 3x5, and that was a super intense game....

  • Elo hell isn't leavers and trolls its people who refuse to communicate, and can only play one champion. for example I play, I say, "what do you guys want." no answer. I pick, we end up being ad heavy. I tell the last guy hey can you go ap. he does feeds (along with bot lane, and by feed i mean 0/5). He then says he can only play one character and why did I make him play that. kind of hard to win when your teamates only play one character, and feed if they play any other character.

  • I am like 830 elo --

  • You think the 1300s are elo hell....

    Jesus christ.

  • @ADAMEATSBEARS If you're any lower than that, you belong there.

  • lol i agree with what u say in ur descrip except i was in elo hell for longest time, now im in 1800's and its so much funner..but when i was in elo hell there are alot of kids that dont know how to pick, and just die to stupidity, nevermind if u see a trynd top solo in low elo its gg haha cause he will get fed unless top isnt to bad

  • great video! keep em coming faro

    

  • where did you get the picture of irelia? looks real good

  • @bartbrader you could perhaps search for assassins creed irelia. yeah just googled it. first image.

  • @bartbrader oh wait..it's the nightblade irelia chinese skin ^^

  • Haha Ur on Charles' account

  • Which runes are better out of flat/per level magic resist/armor? I cant really affort the IP to experiement.

  • If your team is warding, then it's no elo hell.

  • this annie :D hillarious little (but good) kid!

  • wow, impressive play, but even more impressive commentary!

  • Can u do a vid with an ap carry plz ?

  • This video was prefect for me cause I just bought Irelia yesterday and have no idea how to build her xD. The build seems pretty good, the only thing I have to ask would this build work just as well in a duo lane? I'm not to the point where solo top with a jungler is very popular hence why Ii'm asking this question. thanks for the background btw i luvz it :D.

  • @DoctaDiesel I would not recommend picking up Warmog's in a duo lane. The item is too expensive to farm quickly, and when you have to share farm with another player you're usually better off going gp/5 items like philo or heart of gold.

  • irelia is just fucking OP

  • how do you find out your elo?

  • Why shouldn't you get spirit visage every time?

  • @MrFlipchill It's a mid-tier defensive item. You can pick it up every single game for sure, but you have to be ready to sell it late game.

  • annie was right, you should have gone mid faggot

  • y ..i agree it wasnt real elo helll...in elo hell u can meet something like ad lux or ad veigar ..( im not saying its SO BAd but not with team and leavers at this elo....)

    Ps..Okok ... ad veigar sux rly hard..but i saw few ad lux it was playable..:)

  • Faro, will you accept 5v5 full premade replays too?

  • @sharpears Yes, absolutely.

  • Great game!

  • would jax be a good idea for this

  • @THEthomas2455 Great idea, actually.

  • 1300 isnt elo hell

  • Artificial elo inflation when you take your 1300 friends account. If you had 4 of that annie, THATS elo hell. Bitchin and whining and feeding. I played rumble back in his op days to get outta elo hell, and its makes you look like a dick, but you NEED to pick the optimal champ against a team. That team has few dps and is squish dependent. Irelia is a tanky squish assassin. Moral of the story: play lots of champs and counter pick the hell outta the other team.

  • I stopped 3 minutes into the video. You said Annie was dominating the lane. Real ELO-hell, you'd have a LeBlanc that had already died 2 times. Garen and Miss Fortune would be already calling him a dumb fag because they're duo-queuing and for some reason thought that Miss Fortune's lack of real CC would benefit Garen.

  • @MasterZealot09 Comments like this really confuse me. There's no such thing as a "real elo hell." People 1300 and below are all there for different reasons. Some of them don't know how to position, some of them don't know how to team fight, some of them don't know how to group, some of them don't know how to lane, and some of them have social disorders. Either way, it costs them the game.

    Not to even mention the fact that most people would've surrendered this game as soon as it was 4v5.

  • @thisisnotfaro You obviously have never been there. When you decide to play a ranked match and you get a jungle shaco that locks in without listening to anyone and then dies to red buff multiple times, never gets a gank, is insanely underleveled, and contributes nothing to team fights. That was my first ranked game, and I will never forget it. Someone that has never played ranked and is 1200 ELO getting matched with legitimate 1200 is completely unjust for how I've seen the average 1200 play

  • @MasterZealot09 While 1200 range players definitely deal with an unbelievable amount of variance in player skill (one that can easily be fixed by having elo start at 0), 1200s are not the only people complaining about "Elo Hell."

  • @thisisnotfaro No they are not the only ones. There are people trapped below 1200 that shouldn't be there but ELO hell prevents them from progressing. Your friend was ranked in the 1300s, so a carry is more believable. You should loss 20 games in a row, get to rank 1000- and then carry to 2000.

  • @MasterZealot09 If you're below 1200 and you shouldn't be there you will carry out. People who think Elo Hell is real are delusional. There have been multiple cases of people carrying from 0 to 2200. Do you remember when the LoL database was compromised and Saintvicious' rating got reset to 0? He was back to 2200 by the end of the week. He carried with AP Rammus.

    And that's not even talking about Camera's complete blog of him que dodging to 0 on the EU servers and carrying up to 2200.

  • @thisisnotfaro Duo queuing from 0-2200 with a ranked 2000 player isn't getting out of elo hell.

  • @MasterZealot09 Camera never duo qued. Saintvicious duo qued for less than half.
