I've been doing real crappy recently. Dunno why or how, but I've been getting quite a few losses. I never solo queue and generally play with people who have more experience than me, and we've been on some winning streaks a few days ago. Maybe I just need a better team composition. Tried Soraka, Irelia, and Veigar recently. Soraka was fun imo.

p.s. my rune page names rulz

Hey hey, the game in which the Irelia built Berserker's Greaves and Stark's Fervor was a ranked game. =P

There's trying stupid shit and knowing it's stupid, trying stupid shit and not knowing any better, and trying stupid shit + not knowing any better + refusing to listen to your team's guidance. It irks me more that most people fall into Category 3.

Either that, or they're just trollin' .

Oh, if it was ranked, okay.

On a side note I can't play for shit while I'm not sober.

I love playing Soraka, I think she's hilarious to play. I can't tell you how many times I've denied side solos of experience while playing her =D.

I've been wrecking face with brand and sion lately. AD Sion is sooo crazy and I can easily get 1200 crits by the end of the game. Beserker's -> Trinity Force -> Inf Edge -> Black Cleaver -> Atma -> Phantom Dancer. So nasty. Brand is just so powerful at AOE damage and he can basically burst down anything with his combo.

In other news, pentakill with MF yesterday
I ulted into all 5 after my team died (I got there late) and got a triplekill, then just DPS'd down sona and warwick who came in from the sides (they avoided the ult altogether). I felt badass.

I really don't think that she is THAT difficult to learn. =/
u think ur good with irelia?

Personally I think it's really easy to get the hang of Irelia, but she's difficult to master. Her skills are very simple and intuitive, but being able to use them effectively is much more difficult.

I've also tried playing with her in a duo lane and I can say that she's not that great. I think she belongs either in a solo lane or jungle. B*tch is absolutely nuts when fed though. O_O

I rarely see a good Trundle, but I have noticed that when he's good he is GREAT.

I recently used Sona for the first time and all I have to say is WOW she is a great support champion. Her R if used right with champs like Kat and Annie is just overpowered as fu, and as though Kat wasn't annoying enough in a lane, now she turret dives with heals lol.

I know I'm good with Irelia, but I'm by no means great with her; however, I feel that I'm good enough to know when someone isn't good at her... at all.

At least for me, seeing a good Irelia is rare. Whether or not she is on my team, I'm glad to see one do well.

Same goes for me with Trundle.



Glad to see Mina is back. Time to get this thread heated up again!

Actually, I'm somewhere around +37.

I have a couple friends that like to play new champions without having any idea how they function.

(friend) "I'm gonna try this guy. How do I build him? What does my Q do?"
(me) "....shit"

I have one friend who is absolutely horrid with Kog'Maw, but insists on playing him. I cringe every time I hear "I'm gonna try and get better with Kog'Maw" because it's usually after I've locked in with a champ that I can't carry as well as I can with, say, Nasus or Singed.

Speaking of Nasus, has anyone seen his new skin in-game?

Announcement: You guys should definitely consider smurfing more often.

Recently, the best games I've ever played were smurf games. It actually less likely to get trolls and assholes when you're smurfing, because the people playing are new and therefore are more focused on learning and enjoying the game, rather than being narcissist players who get extremely cocky after winning.

Also, because they are new, they have this passive attitude, as they are not sure which risks are appropriate to take. This usually leads to games going far into late game, with both teams being very evenly balanced, unlike our level 30 games, which are more often one-sided, because teams know exactly how to take advantage of a clear lead.

But what makes these games amazing is that when your team is somewhat worse than the enemy team, the responsibility of leadership is put on your shoulders. The question is, do you have the strategic mindset, the understanding of the mechanics, and the social skills to push your team to victory?

These games usually don't appear until your account reaches level 10+, but assuming you start at level 1 and bulldoze through everyone, your normal ELO should rise pretty quickly, and you'll be playing these matches in no time. Nowadays, level 30 games only make me angry and want to quit playing the game, regardless of a win or loss, but being able to relive what made me love the game so long ago really means a lot.

so basically you enjoy the metagame of new players and you feel good when you carry a team of people who don't know what they're doing vs people who don't know what they're doing

you can still have DA RESPONSIBILITY OF LEADERSHIP at your regular skill level you know, but you know actually being good kind of sucks so let's just smurf



just for the record i blow hard hairy dicks at this game but i don't smurf

[edit]

yea, i don't have fun smurfing cuz either i'm 30/0 and just not enjoying it, or my team is getting aced because your rammus decides he wants 5 infinity edges

it's like beating on retarded kids and thinking you're fly

i mean ffs i played a game where the other team didn't know you could concede (my team had 2 smurfs and they were just dicking around and not pushing)
