Right now it's 1:30pm, you can check the difference from there.
Also regardless of the time difference it's a 24 hour block, you don't actually have to time your arrival online...

@JD: Is there a reason you picked those 5 champs SPECIFICALLY?
Like... is it intended so that even if they ban three of them, pick the 4th, you can still pay the 5th without countering yourself? =/
Also happy birthday =D


those 5 specifically give us a lot of flexibility also i idolize froggen

Updating the OP with a couple links to runepage setups, basic strategies, etc would actually go a long way towards making this a helpful resource.

Is this argument....still going on? o_o Really?

Game 1 was stupid. We had a hard random and 2 people playing their champions for the second time and Quaroath spent the entire game seriously bitching about us tryharding. I'm not going to speak to how serious anyone else was about us tryharding, but having everyone talking about it in /all chat all game gets very annoying very fast. Even if anyone was tryharding.....so? Is wanting to win suddenly a crime because we're playing against people that we
supposedly
get along with?

I wasn't going to play in game 2, but getting the last couple people in an inhouse is always about finding people that don't really want to play and I'm fine with that. Then someone decided it would be a good idea to make our 5th team member someone that half our team doesn't like to play with (or at least I think someone other than me doesn't like playing with him, but I can't remember who, if so). Then something happened and he left and he got replaced with someone else that half our team doesn't like to play with. Smooth. I won't say that me and Andy alternating quitting the game in the hopes something would come of it helped anything, but neither of us really cared at all to play anymore. In general, I do not enjoy playing MS inhouses.

Leaving out the in-between stuff because it's less relevant, I only half paid attention to what was being said during game 2. I was way beyond caring about what was going on in the game at that point. From what I saw though, it would be nice if you would take the /all-chat-circle-jerking-with-teammates level down about 15 orders of magnitude when half of the other team clearly does not care to be playing. Seriously.

Game 2's failure was probably at least 50% my fault though, so I'm certainly not trying to sound blameless here. Between not really caring to play against the same people again after the first game, the revolving door 5th slot on our team that got filled multiple times with people I loathe playing with enough to not want to be in the same Skype call with (I kicked one of them when he got added to the Skype call), and pointless in-team ~drama~ that was largely my fault, I was pretty pissed by the time the game started and proceeded to do stupid things. Yeah.

Pre-post edit: looks like the thread is at least temporarily not arguing anymore, but I'm not deleting this after I already typed it up, so wheeeeeeee

Mid: pen reds, mana yellows, armor/hp in some cases, flat MR blue's (sometimes scaling AP on some champs), Flat AP generally
Jungle: AS reds (generally, with exceptions), armor yellows, scaling mr blue's, MS or Pen quints, depending on job.
Top: pen red, armor yellow, scaling MR blue, MS quints generally, if you want to go on here it rather depends on your opponent.
AD: no clue, see a lot of flat ad stuff going on there. armor yellows (sometimes some mana mixed in), flat MR blue
Support: Armor reds, armor yellows, mr blue, ms quints or GP10 depending on lane.
Surrender, imagine and of course wear something nice.

and since there are lots of runes and lots of champs the list above is not complete. Be sensible about it.

i currently run two different sets of mid runes; both use MPen reds and flat MR blues. I have a preference on the whole towards health/lvl yellows at the moment (especially for farmy late-game champions) and alternate between flat AP/movespeed quints depending on what i need to do in that lane

not to rekindle the argument, but people really need to stop playing in games they don't want to play in if that was the case there

I can finally jungle respectably with Lee Sin, but I can't seem to get the hang of dropping a ward and jumping to it really fast like Froggen has been doing lately. Any advice?

learn range, put your wards in 2 so you can just slide down 2-w?

Practice mechanics like this in customs.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

This is actually one of the few things that you NEED low ping for. Other than that, practice clicking 1 and then W really quickly, I guess?

PE: dram, that's like saying "I don't understand the whole runes thing, is 20% extra (one of health/damage/utility) really gonna make a difference?"

Yes. That's 15% faster on each camp. That's pretty significant.

Also, My attitude is just as toxic as everyone else's from ONM, I fit right in.


Edit: All I have to say to Quaroath, is 0-7. Try to not feed ievery single game and then you can address me as a normal human being.


Panzer you are a bit of a diva, and thats fine. It doesn't bother me most of the time. I'm perfectly okay not being the best player. I have things that matter so much more to me than that.

0-7 in a lane i never play with a character i never play... i'm okay with that. Like honestly. I don't care. That's why i played mid, cause i knew i'd suck at it.

My recent history of games (not including last night, and customs)
7/3/12 (kog)
5/0/3 (cait)
3/4/7 (ez)
1/5/2 (ouch - cait))
6/6/12 (meh, mid lane karthus i'll take 500 and we won so no biggie there)
1/13/7 (ouch, i lost that game for us, as olaf no less. Fucking teemo coutnerpick)
2/10/16 (support nunu assist machine, every lane lost hard)
4/2/10 (jungle sion)


Your recent history of games (top 8 on the list to compare)
0/6/0 soraka
12/6/15 jayce
7/8/9 rengar
7/3/7 ashe
11/8/8 ashe
14/3/9 draven (nice game)
7/4/14 shaco
6/4/7 malphite

1 bad game for you, 2 good, 5 meh

I had 2 bad games, 2-3 good games and 3-4 med games. All depends on how you categorize the sion game. That is hardly feeding every game. Do i lose my team games? certainly But If I'm having a decent time I don't care. Also, you shouldn't talk about feeding when you feed morgana every time you instalock soraka as a hard counter.

I can go watch the replay, but I don't remember being an ass in G1. I certainly wasn't trying to be so I'll gladly go watch it. IN the end I was having fun, and thats all that mattered. If I kept someone else from having fun, I apologize.

In short panzer, back off okay? You weren't even part of it so really you can't speak to it.
