League of Legends (Old)

[Brandi]

First ever game with a Rioter. RiotNinjaTabby is one of the web developers.

[Venmar]

wow what a feeder

fire him

Start queuing, win first game and get series again

First series game, I'm last pick support and asked to trade with FP mid. He ignores me saying I want Leona, and just random picks Janners for me. I haven't played Janna on SR more than twice in the past 6 months. ADC has horrible lag issues for the first 8 minutes, but clutch nados save the day and we stomp lane anyway. Game one won.

Game two, enemy team has Jungle Eve, opponents come into lane damaged. I warn my ADC that Eve's nearby and to play it super safe. He doesn't, Eve ganks, and we barely live. He again overextends and gives up FB. (partially my fault, I fucked up and forgot to start with pinks) Team is godawful anyway, second game lost.

Third game, I call top and second pick Garen. Fourth and last pick both call jungle, fourth pick takes it with Noct. Last pick FUCK YOU I CALLED JUNGLE *instalock Hecarim*. ADC switches summoners to CV/Revive, I go "fuck it" and dodge. Log back in, and "You have D/Ced from a game in progress.". Ugh. So I join it, and Smite/Flash Noct goes "welp, let the troll jungle then. Garen, you support and I'll take top." What followed was probably the biggest pubstomp I've seen in a long time. I suicide towerdive to give our MF FB, and it just snowballed from there into an easy win.

Support Garen is super fun, although it's probably awful. You just chunk squishies super hard.

[MrZepher]

Support Garen is pretty cheese if the enemy laners don't know how to play against it.

lil g and I had a pretty funny time against Ezreal Garen one time where Jarvan camped the living fuck out of our lane.
Sona Varus op

[PJ.]

HOLY SHIT FUCK SHIT FUCK

I just Split push won.... HOLY FUCK.... their team ignored me while I was split pushing bot we had gotten abron and took an inhib our inhib just respawned, they took drag and went mid my team from bot ported back to stop them, i kept going because i figured they wouldn't fight and they'd be stuck getting poked at under tower and i'd be able to take a tower or two.. They ended up fighting while I smashed through 4 turrets and the inhib and the nexus for the big fight W. 1v3 Base Race GG. I win.

[Oman]

What the fuck is 'Order pick'?

WHEN DID THIS BECOME A THING!?!

Everyone is going forward with it like the best way to play is instead of working out a team comp, you all just pick first and hope you're in the right order.

[PJ.]

Yo Oman, What's your Sn? We should play sometime.

Sona Varus op

I feel like it would shit on Sona really hard if you positioned well enough that she couldn't carry poke for free. I shat on Lux every time she missed a bind, Sona doesn't really have anything pre-6 to stop you other than poke, but you don't care about poke because passive.

[Brandi]

Awwwwwwwwwww yeah

[PJ.]

So The system is clamping down on me even harder, 5 each way.

[CF Riot]

In case you're wondering, yes, that

is

AD Nami-mid. Carried like a boss.

[Oman]

Yo Oman, What's your Sn? We should play sometime.

sidneylloyd - anyone feel free to add if you want to play around sometimes.

let me know if you're on.

Seriously though, I've done thinking and research, and seriously fuck order pick. It's for jerks that don't want to communicate.

Okay, I haven't wanted to actually think like this but - with the sheer amount of retards through my bronze leagues that don't

want

to communicate, this is probably as good a standard as any.

She has ranged poke and SHOULD be faster than you. That's enough deterrent in itself since you need to not be getting poked to use your passive. lol.

In all honesty it sounds to me like you were playing bads.

I definitely was, and I did say support Garen would probably be awful against anyone competent, but it feels like it would actually work against Sona (and probably only Sona) in theory. If you roll with a boots start ala S2 Leona, that + Q is enough to gapclose and nuke her since she's stupidly squishy. Garen's bases are insane, and doubly so in botlane.

As far as poke, if you're full health, your passive is worthless, and if you got poked, you can hang back and regen a little + pots.


Should I buy Orianna, Lulu, Thresh, Shaco, or Rumble next? All are on my list of champs I'm eying.

I already have every support minus Lulu, Nami, and Thresh, and Nami doesn't interest me while the other two definitely do.
Ori I want so I can have a really disruptive poke-y CC mid. I have TF already, but I can't play him terribly well.
Shaco's got all the ganks and trickery, which is cool and fun.
Rumble would be to fill out my top lane pool, although a bruiser might do that better. idk (Garen, Olaf, Singed, WW, and Teemo are who I can play, and I own Jax and Cho but can't really play them well)

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Grab Rumble.

[TehBrawlGuy]

OP winrate, or does he fill out my pool well?

[Ankamius]

Rumble is straight up retarded. He has really good lane and teamfight presence with his Q/E in the former and R in the latter. And yeah, his win rate is among the highest of all the champions. IIRC he's #1 right now with Taric and MF close behind.

[MrZepher]

Rumble ulti fucks people up. If you're playing against a squishy champ you can just drop it on top of them whenever it's up and it'll usually kill them or at least force them out of lane.
It's a retarded ability in teamfights.

Also his Q is still on a 1.2 ratio or something stupid like that.

[InflatablePie]

They changed his ult on the PBE to not do the initial burst up-front but do more damage on the DoT itself. Just a heads up since that will probably make it to Live at some point.

That said, Rumble is so much fun. Get him.

[lil g]

Been talking people out of picking up Rumble since that PBE change went in.
Totally dumpsters his ult, Rumble is dead when that change goes live.

[Mina]

Well, it's finally happened. After holding out for so long, I caved to peer pressure and went to the dark side...

...only to go back to the light side again.

I think someone would need to have only one arm and a neurological disorder to be worse at this game than I am. Memorizing the amount of damage that every single ability will do to any champion with any combination of equipment? Flaming people for their incorrect theories about Sona vs. Soraka and Taric vs. Thresh and top lane vs. mid lane and carry vs. support vs. jungler and asfaafgag vs. dhifghdihod? I find it hard enough to just head in the general direction of bad guys and then randomly left-click and mash QWE before a bot kills me in two hits.

Your build sucks.

[Mina]

I'd be more offended if I knew what a build was.

[Nikanor]

The items you bought were not the ideal choices for that champion, n00blord.

Which is expected, honestly. Nobody except the guys who make money by playing this game actually memorize the damage each guy does. And taric versus thresh etc. doesn't actually matter as much as who the better player is.
