Soooo......
We queued up together as a 5-man premade (3 of my IRL friends + LoL friend), and we were matched to play against this team. I did my stuff as jungle Amumu, but our team pretty much dominated from the very beginning. The Nidalee - the LoL friend - did very well in mid and pretty much got kills when opportunities arose.
My IRL friend - on Corki - did very well too at top, and dominated that lane too.
For me, I pretty much did my job as jungle Amumu, ganking whenever teammates requested it. Later on, Nidalee and Corki was so fed we thought the other team would simply surrender at 20 minutes. They did not. So we simply kept killing during teamfights, and we pretty much forced an end to this game at their Nexus.
So after losing a 5v5 arranged ranked game last night, I felt I needed to get myself back up. I decided to solo queue into a ranked game. Early on, things weren't going well for us. WW made many incursions into our jungle to steal buffs, though we did catch him quite a few times. Things were somewhat even during early to mid game.
But after their Ashe ragequitted, we knew that it was game over for the other team. We simply pushed whenever we could, but we had to stick together since the other team could take us out if we separated. Long story short, we did get Baron - albeit with difficulty - and after a few teamfights, the enemy surrendered.
On another note....
I'm seriously thinking about changing up how I play Cho'Gath in ranked. I do play him as a tank, but I realized that maybe going half and half - in other words, be part tanky and part AP - might be the best choice. Or even go full AP. I've noticed lately in ranked that AP Cho'Gath are extremely effective....
One of the few games played last night
