I think what people are trying to say is that of that small group of players, he is fairly average, and doesn't deserve the hero worship he gets. That's pretty much how I felt of HS and El. They're good players, and I'll happily take one of them over countless crappy players, but given their hero status (it was the same for Roku a while ago - Brees was like "you've never played against Roku's Mundo" and when I did it was like meh...) it's underwhelming. They both make mistakes, and pretty hideous ones at that. I would unflinchingly say their winrates are more a product of whom they play with more than just how good they are. For instance, Phreak is 150-50 or something, but if he were to solo-queue that all the way he'd have a much worse record, aided by leavers and feeders. I've tried carrying people on one of my smurfs and I can honestly say there're too many games where you can try like hell and still fall short trying to win 3v7. | ||

![[image loading]](http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/3978/lolsorakamid.jpg) So, I was making a game with 2 friends (Aylayla Milandur and BaiHappy), and as soon as the game starts one of them (Aylayla) tells me he just reinstalled Windows, and LoL can't launch because it's corrupted, even though PvP.net wasn't; he has to reinstall LoL before he can reconnect to the game. So we're starting the game 4v5, and we don't have any good mid champions, so I take it (Soraka). I proceed to dominate their Kat while my other 3 teammates are doing their part steamrolling their opponents. 24 mins into the game, my friend finishes reinstalling LoL, he's just in time to see us Ace the enemy team and they summarily surrender. He then gets first win of the day :p I'd never seen such domination in a 4v5. It was fun  | ||

That exact scenario might not come up, but as you start getting SotO stacks with your brutalizer, your burst starts getting absolutely silly. regardless of your heartseeker level, you add 5 points to your heartseeker for each 1 point of damage you gain. That's 50 damage per longsword, 25 per SotO stack, 250 per BF Sword. This is why my build is so balls to the wall on getting damage, because abusing this shit is the only thing keep Pantheon from being just another terrible melee DPS. Wouldn't it be 10 points of damage to your heartseeker for each 1 point of damage you gain, since it deals double damage to champions? | ||

For instance, Baikin doesn't really want to play until Blitzcrank gets buffed, and I don't really blame him (he also needs a monitor), and I simply am tired of people abusing the Ezreal bug and whacking people for 800+ damage 25 minutes into a game. Edit: This is also a middle-finger to everyone who said AD Ezreal was underwhelming a month back. Sheen + BT + Mystic Shot = ~600 damage. The bug just makes it do like 700 damage instead, but the skill was already retarded to begin with - just hardly anyone abused it. So they buffed it. Great. Why was a skill with a 1-second CD doing over 600 damage needing a buff? @#$@$*@% Haha in my defense, when Ezreal came out everyone said AD was the way to go based on Phreak's champion spotlight. Then I came on and posted that I thought AP was AS good due to his W and ult ownage. I said it might have been due to playstyle though and was defending my awesome AP ezreal when most people thought AD was better at the time. Then all of a sudden AP ezreal became super popular, and OP threads about him started popping out everywhere. I then gloated a bit that I was right about AP Ezreal being awesome. Then the nerfs came, and AD ezreal is probably better now. And now you get to gloat a bit haha Though in truth it doesn't really matter cuz I can play both styles I'd like to play Ezpz sometime 1v1 AD ezreal. I've owned mid a few times as him, but its probably due to people sucking mid when I solo queue. | ||

![[image loading]](http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/2056/lol4v5win.jpg) Our Pantheon didn't join the game, and still we proceeded to win 4v5 in a very decisive manner. And well, at this ELO (mid-high ELO) that is absolutely unheard of. And this was only my third game with Heimerdinger! I'd like to recieve congratulations now please  | ||
