Having a Soraka pocket healer is freaking ridiculous.
Seriously, one of my WoW friends started playing LoL recently and his current main is Soraka. We Duo que'd a couple games and it's just crazy...

You need to be on more often! Rolleyes

I will! Playing those two games sparked interest in me again.

Hopefully you'll stick around. Comon, I used to remember when you were on a LOT. Rolleyes

Played my first solo ranked game today. Wow, things have seriously degraded the last time I remembered tryhard mode.

I'll be honest, I lost interest in the game and genre for a while.
 yay won against people!

But man I wanted to cry early game. I was bot with Miss Fortune against Taric and Sion... doublestun up the butthole was really not fun and we both had some early deaths. Luckily for us they spent a lot of midgame running around the map trying to gank but wards and some timely CVs assured they weren't very successful. We ended up outleveling and outfarming them and really turned it around for a very satisfying win. Glitter

Then in our next game we got super owned by a bunch of Koreans. It was not pretty. Lol.

[color="#cc8899"]Congrats! I had a nasty experience with a premade team of trolls earlier who proceeded to sling racist bs at us for the entire game until our loss.

Also ended up in a 3v5 in the opponents' favor. pomegranate sucked. We hung in there, but it wasn't happening.

Did have a pretty fun match towards the end of my day though - it was a 4v5 in our favor, with their Cass (mid-laner?) afk. It was surprisingly close. We steamrolled at the beginning, but some smart teamfighting on their end and some overconfidence on the part of my team brought us fairly even in kills. Their sheer tankiness held us off long enough at their base's doorstep for quite some time - we just couldn't do enough to their Shen to safely kill him until the tower was down, and the mobs were going down before they could do much to the tower. Eventually we were able to break through after they chased some of my teammates into their jungle, giving us enough momentum to secure the win.





Oh, and my LoL LOL of the weak: Early game, around lv 7 or 8 or so, our Yi runs into mid lane, ignores enemy Cait who is running away, and proceeds to attack creeps and push the lane.

He then proceeds to tower dive against two enemies. Enemy Evelyn appears as well. He then peaches at me for some reason when he dies.

Later yet, he runs into enemy jungle. I was near him helping push up to that point, then went back down to the relative safety of the lane after he abandoned me. He gets ambushed, I throw a W and a Q out to try to save him, he dies to a Cait's autoattack and peaches at me - first, for not E'ing him (doesn't affect phys) and then fires off this gem:

"What the fk Morg, why didn't you go in, you could've taken that death for me" (he meant that I should have died so he could escape. I was at full health with about half mana. At this point in the game I was 0/0/6. He was something like 4/3/1 or 4/2/1. The ONLY benefit to me dying instead of him would be them getting less gold, at the risk of an enemy double kill, me being out of mid lane for quite some time, and the chance of a teammate coming up/down to try to help and ALSO getting killed).

No. Dive into stupid situations on your own dime, tyvm.



Things I learned today:
Sometimes people are stupid in normal queue and will stand in Morgana's W autoattacking if you cast it just right (where only the very edge is under them).

Morgana's E noms Caitlin's cupcakes. Really fun to let her waste time/mana throwing out 3 or 4 of them, then buffing up and proceeding to trip every single one of them without taking a single point of real damage or being hindered in the slightest.

Evelyn is not a good choice as a replacement for mid-lane against Morgana when your Cass is afk for the entire game.

I'd forgotten how bad Kog'Maw is at early game.

Trolls abound in normal draft.[/COLOR]
THE WHOLE CUPCAKE THING IS BETTER WITH SIVIR. IT'S FREE MANA. FREE. MANA.

Indeed. But still fun on Morgana.
god stupid ranged ad so boring to play. Either you sit in lane and farm well for 20 minutes and win the game 5 minutes later. Or you farm poorly for 20 minutes and lose 5 minutes later.

Welcome to League of Farmers, you must be new here?

Are you kidding? Have you been in a lane where the enemy is constantly harassing/pressuring you to prevent you from last-hitting effectively? That pomegranate gets really tense, especially if you don't have a reliable way to get them away. But yes, that's what a carry does - they farm until they can DPS or burst the pomegranate out of enemies.

yea you either have a sustain support and as long as you cant get burst down it doesnt matter. Or you dont have sustain and you sit back and play passive. Real fun.
You can be like me and play Nasus and see how high you can get your Q to damage. Doing that against a ranged top is crazy impossible to do even if you do build tanky :C

Kog'Maw is arguably one of the harder scaling ranged carries out there, sporting a very long auto-attack range and on-hit %-HP magic damage, and some light defense shreds. Given the absurd amount of DPS he can pump out late game with items, it would only be natural that he have much power early game.

That's not to say that you can't actually kill people though. He can still poke at a long distance (except Caitlyn). Also, I cherish the moments where I trade kills with them (not FB) because of Icathian Surprise.

I lol'd when I realized I was Sivir versus Caitlyn. Q? Mana. W? Mana. E? Maybe mana. R? Trololololomana.

Lawnmower Morgana deshrooms Teemo's yard.

I dunno, I like the sound of gold. And when you're waiting for last-hits, harass plz!

I'm still trying for that legendary game where you get 200 CS by 20 minutes. Holy shyt.
Birdie Wrote:lee sin corki bot op. true story

[COLOR="#cc8899"]Cait + ___ is always obnoxious in bot. Something like Caitlin + Taric is just rageworthy.

And yeah, I know WHY Kog is so weak early on. I just tend to forget it after playing Morgana or Lux so often.[/COLOR]

This is so oversimplified it saddens me. If you want constant teamfights go play dominion and leave this to people that enjoy it.
