Yeah, but I was a bit too pissed off to play even Co-Op by that time. It'd probably have been one of those rare AI games where 2 people afk/leave and one person feeds or something bad like that. XP

Lux, it would be bad because there is a 90% chance the other people on my team would also pick ap squishies instalock.
Ive noticed there is very little communication between teammates on what they are picking and strategys, but everyones so quick to tell you once you're in game how much you suck.
On patch notes:
Hm guess ill be starting ruby crystal on Amumu..
amg more Sona changes~
Random BF sword 'nerf' o.o
Im about to watch the Brand Spotlight while i eat breakfast. Hope hes amazing..
I usually last pick precisely because so many people instalock. I do my best to make up for what other people pick most of the time, though there have been a few games where I just said, "pineapple tanking. I've done that the past x games, I'm going to play a squishy regardless of whether I win or lose."
Also, Ruby on Amumu? I'd say going Shield or cloth and pots are a better choice on him. Both give you some better lane sustainability unless you've got mad health regen runes.
As for Singed, I'm okay with the changes because he's such a good bait/side lane pusher already and this will just improve him even more. Might even make me consider switching from swiftness boots to merc treads and going ghost on him.
And Brand looks interesting, but I'll probably have to play him before I decide whether or not he's going to end up on my get list. Though honestly once I've played most champs, they go on my get list with a few exceptions: Shen and Cassiopiea being the two I can think of at the moment. I'll still get them someday, but only after I've gotten every other champ in the game in all likelihood. There were a few others I tried previously and thought were bad, but I've found after gaining some experience with more champs, and just getting better at the game in general, there are more champs I find myself playing as than I would have expected. I still love Master Yi after all, but I haven't played him in ages because I just never get the right team comp for him, whereas I wasn't a big fan of Amumu at first, and yet I've played a ton of games with him by now.
