Words Wrote:Day started in a rather crappy way. Randomed Skeleton King, which I don't think I've played before but I've seen enough to get an idea. I'm asked to jungle, which I'm ok with since I had practiced a lot of that with several different heroes but I made a huge mistake, I stacked the small camp right away. I had only clear 1/3 that spawn at :30 when I stacked and the new ones were those annoying Kobolds that heal everything around them. SK's attack animation is obnoxiously slow, and I just couldn't kill the 5 of them fast enough. I burnt all my regen in the first 5 minutes being only level 2. After 15mins I caught up a bit, but missing for so long made my team loose
Yeah Skeleton King isn't exactly the best hero to start off jungling even if he has that vampric aura for lifesteal. He doesn't have enough damage or bonus damage from any skills that he can use to kill the creeps fast enough like Lifestealer or Ursa.
My day started off pretty intense but a great game with Batrider, I almost got first blood but tanked way too much damage from the Kunkka and Creeps. However I followed up with two kills off Kunkka afterwards with a DD rune and illusions. Our team composed of 1 mid, 3 supports, and 1 carry while other team had 1 hard carry, 3 semi- carries, and 1 support. So I guess we did have an edge with our disables on their carries to win but it took longer than usual from our over extension throughout the game.
