If you can't outdamage kat in a trade you are screwed, but most champions that can...should just stand near the front of your creeps so that u can hit her back everytime she tosses BB. It's only free damage if you stand all the way back and let it get to you via bounces.

If you are someone like brand or cass you might have trouble because kat can throw BB at you and then shumpo to dodge your spells.

Make her choose being throwing knives at you or minions. If she's aiming at minions, you should be able to space yourself to avoid getting hit. If she aims at you, she's not getting those last hits. If she goes to melee the minions you should have free reign to light her up or harass her at the least. You can also stand on top/in front of your minions so she has to target you directly and get close to use them. If that's the case, you should be able to hit her back just as easily w/ whatever champ you're running.

The key is putting out damage on her. You have to be able to harass her enough so that if she wants to shumpo in on you, that it could very well lead to her death. If she gets a life lead and you play overly cautious, then she'll zone and dominate you for ages until somebody helps gank her. Although that really applies to almost everybody.

More of a pride thing lol, I hate boasting and then not backing it up.

Though it did feel nice when I lost to a guy and then matched with him the next and he said Cheep and I were still the best on our team, even though I didn't feel like I played well after tilting.

You should be able to farm easily as hell w/ kennen just using your Q at range to tag mobs. Your auto has solid range on it as well. She shouldn't be able to zone you either, since if she steps in front of her own minions she's exposing herself to your own Q to light her ass up with. Like, unless you're legitimately low health I would think this would be an insanely easy matchup since if she tries to ult you or shumpo on you, it's guaranteed you'll be able to stun and destroy her.

also new trend in 1400's: ad carry saying "if only you guys would protect me, we could win team fights" after they charge across the battlefield to kill the enemy carry. the idea that you must target the enemy carry first is way too strong at low elo. pick vayne and kill their bruisers, gg :D


The whole concept of "OMG DONT FOCUS THEIR TANKS" is the most retarded thing all the way up to like 1700 elo in my experience.

People actually yell at carries not shooting their carries while they dive 1n5 and loldie a horrible death.

WHY NO FOCUS CAITLYNN!?!!?
'cause I'd die getting past amumu and jax.
OMG WHY FOCUS TANK
'cause he's the only thing in range that doesn't get me killed shooting at it. by the way, what about killing their jax who dives 1n5 first?
OMG FUCKING NEWB FOCUS CARRY

This is actually a great way to motivate your team if they're getting demoralized at the champ select screen. So many low elo players have a black and white perception of champion balance, they immediately see Orianna on the enemy team and your mid lane pick says "omg I auto lose gg". Just tell them "don't worry guys, I'm a 1900 elo player boosting my friend's account, if you focus this will be a win 100%."

Of course you do have to carry them after using this tactic, but at least it's less hard to carry after you squelch their defeatist attitude.

There are some pretty funny concepts at different elos.

My favourite is at 1400s the "WE NEED TO GROUP MID" as soon as one turret falls and then proceed to have a stare stand-off for 10 minutes.

You forgot: We're 4n5 mid, some retard (usually the clever one) pushes another lane/tower. Then we initiate 4n5 without any goal or objective to fight for, lose horribly and blame the person who wasn't there for being a newb.

OMG STOP SOLO OMG GROUP WE LOSE CAUSE YOU SOLO ALL GAME
you could have held that tower 4n5 and dragon isn't up for another minute.
WE LOSE TOWER CAUSE YOU SOLO ALL GAME
i just killed the tower and you died because you ran into them 4n5.
YEAH CAUSE YOU WERENT HERE FUCKING NEWB REAL

so i know i've mentioned this before
probably several times but

my two best ideas for LoL
that haven't been implemented yet (get on it MoonBear)

paying RP for a hard elo reset on your acct (riot would double their income from bads seriously, and without affecting the higher level play)
snowball boots

SERIOUSLY WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET THESE

RP for Elo Reset: Apart from Elo inflation, it could also facilitate account sharing/selling. Riot Customer Service sometimes ignores the sharing part, but the selling part is really frowned upon. The idea of more than one person using the account and buying RP on it also raises some legal problems.

As for Snowball Boots... If you can come up with a really good, coherent argument that is convincing, I could forward it to one of the Designers I know. But only if it's good.

so what is the process for getting RP and such from tournaments? Do they just show up in your account? have 10 bucks and some other stuff incoming and I'm not sure how to claim it

They take a while to show up. Contact the tourney organiser first to see what the procedure is. If it's taking ages, give me a shout and I can find someone in Customer Service to see if they can help. NA or EU?

I wonder what the new video for Patch/Champ Preview will be.

Ten green Yordles sitting on the wall. Ten green Yordles sitting on the waaalllll. And if oooooone green Yordle should accidentally fall....

Certain Hybrids getting buffed. Think I might have said so on NA last night.

Why does NA go down after I ask people if things are fine and then leave.
