Slow night...
I queued up with my real friends, and I went jungle Amumu.
The enemy Orianna we faced up against was hella good. Though I must say, she's a tad bit OP. A couple of times, she trapped us in a bunch with her orb while we were attempting to take out the mid outer tower in a 1v4 situation. What the hell.
. That's like Xin Zhao when he was first released (inb4 Orianna fix/nerfs). And boy she hits really hard too. Later on, we started focusing her a bit since we realized she could snowball out of control if we didnt shut her down. She never got too many kills after that, and started racking up a lot of detahs.
I started out very badly. Everything went wrong for me. I made a bad gank, got counter-jungled by the enemy jungle Udyr, and getting instagibbed in my own jungle. By the time mid-game phase started, I was 0-4-4. Horrible. Then for whatever reason, as we started taking advantage of them splitting up during chases and teamfights, I started nailing kills. Went on a 4-kill streak before I got killed. Okay, at least I saved my butt from utter humiliation.
Orianna was still a major threat. So was their Xin Zhao. We kept our senses heightened. I realized that if they split up, we could take them down more easily. In a teamfight, they were pretty damn strong. Fortunately, they made the mistake of splitting up quite often, which made our jobs much easier. Though there were at times they stuck together, and we nearly got aced.
And one funny thing was when the other team was chasing my friend - on Singed - 2 people made the mistake of chasing after him, with <200 HP, right on his poison trail. Now wouldn't that require some common sense to realize you're not supposed to do that, and feed Singed with 2 kills as a result?
My friend - on Corki - got hella fed. He went 22-2-10. Had a few close calls. When my teammates and I got our acts together, we helped him get the kills he needed. And protecting him, of course. My end score was 5-7-17.
The other team eventually surrendered after 45 or so minutes. Though I must say, it was quite scary a few times when they pushed quite hard. I thought we were gonna lose.
