Played another two games, first as Master Yi, I did fairly decent, but with Panth + Fiddle + Morgana, things didn't go nearly as well as they could have. I did punish a few early attempts at tower diving me/Akali, but our bottom lane Sivir left and while we were doing fairly even for a while, the numbers hurt. Eventually MisFortune on their side dced, so we went back to being fairly even, but in the end I just couldn't risk backdooring with so much stun/fear/etc around as I'd most likely die without putting a dent in a tower. I still ended up dying at a very bad time due to a surprise Panth stun, and from there they pushed hard and made it into the base. 2nd Push later on and they had us. It was still a pretty good game, I felt like I played alright so it counts as a success in my book.
Second game we didn't have a tank, and though I was a bit leery about being relied upon, I volunteered to go as Cho'Gath. Turns out it was the right call. I omnomnomed Karthus a ton of times. XP He was so funny, running right towards me so I could scream him and then in a short time, eat him. Of course I died almost every time I did that, but it was worth it because it meant everyone on the other side had to focus on me, which worked well a good 90% of the time, there was once or twice when my team didn't back me up and I felt like it was kind of a waste given how much fire I had drawn. Again, dealing with Panth and Fiddle weren't fun, but Fiddle and Kat were the main ones who game me grief, and Fiddle was mostly staying away from me after seeing what I did to Karthus so many times. I did eat him once as well, but he was obviously more careful so we only fought two or three times directly. Still, I think I did a good job. I went more melee protection first this time after I got a warmog, and it seemed to work well. Probably because Karthus and Fiddle were busy mostly trying to take care of our side's carries to varying degrees of success. I'm thinking I'll probably try tanking with Malphite or Nunu at some point as well, just to get an idea of which one works best. I think Cho is my fave cause again, I like omnoming on squishies, but i've played the other two before, I just need to play them against real people to see how they stack up.XP
