Aphromoo realizing his player started "duel of the fates" goes "oh, Star Wars song is on, let's do this!", ults as Ashe, teamfight, he flashes in during the clean-up and dies for the ace 5-1, "I AM QUI-GON JIN" while the enemy inhib falls.

Then they throw.

Fuck my life. This game is so fucking stupid. I'm a legitimate 1500 player who's stuck in ELO hell in the 1700-1900 range right now. I keep trying to queue and lose games so I can reach my true ELO, but my team always seems to carry me. I can't lose somehow.

Like last game, I played mid as TF. Never used my ultimate to port, never warded for myself, went triple GP10, and still somehow managed to be unstoppable at the end of the game. Everytime I hit my Pick a Card, it took me like 2-3 rotations before I picked a card, and I always seemed to pick a blue card. But I still killed people. Why? My team won both top and bottom, and they seem to carry me every game. I hate this game so much. I'm just trying to go home to where I belong.

ELO hell really does exist.

And then they un-throw in a pretty convincing manner. Aphromoo too OP.

I glanced over the first part thinking it was just another ELO hell post until I got to the "my team always seems to carry me." Read it again and lol'ed. Well played.

Swain just seems weak because he isn't bursty, but he can sit in the middle of a fight and do damage for awhile. He's one of those guys whose doing a steady but annoying amount of damage and its hard to figure out if he's worth killing or not. Kill him and you've blown valuable time/spells that could be spent on the carries, don't kill him and even if you kill the carriers your team might end up getting cleaned up anyways.

Agreed, he does a fuck load of damage without any items. I still can't figure out for the life of me how Swain is balanced.

Those teamfights were beautiful and scary at the same time. AoE CC stronk.
(For those who didn't watch, it was Graves top, Orianna mid, Nunu jungle, and Sona/Ashe bot, against Rumble, Syndra, Lee, Corki/Soraka.)

And now he's playing Vayne against Ezreal. I should get some sleep, but I'm curious.

Aphromo is good but isn't playing Draven and the rat is kinda cheesy ? They seem awfully strong in some situation but just plain bad in others, which makes them situational carry and Aphromo just use that.
I'm not sure Aphromo is at the Doublelift / chaox level without using unexpected carry, never seen him do wonder in a serious match with ez, corki or graves but maybe I'm just wrong.

How is playing unconventional ADCs cheesy? If he can use them and outplay the big 3, I don't understand how that's a bad thing. Also his Ez is pretty good. I guess this is just me getting kind of annoyed the way the word "cheese" gets thrown around in such a negative connotation. Anything that breaks the meta these days is cheesy by a lot of people's standards.


I get annoyed by it too. When Dig was crushing everyone with Kog + 3 support I was ecstatic that a team was actually using what appeared to be a different strategy. By game 3 people were complaining about it being boring to watch because (admittedly) it was OP. I couldn't understand it though. You play and watch more or less the same game for a month and the instant something new crops up in a tournament you just want it to roll over and die?

But then I enjoyed watching all the BW mirror matchups (TvT included), so I don't care if someone does something new by turtling or by 5 manning top turret and pushing to nexus at minute 1. As long as the casters are decent there and things haven't turned stale there will always be enough tension in the game for me.

?

Swain is heavily item reliant from my experiences. If you get your core delayed then you get issues with your mana, defensive stats, and offensive stats. When teamfights occur you can't just sit back like you might be able to. Getting ROA delayed hurts a lot because it hits you in every single way.

But that's called ELO heaven.

There have been quite a few jokes about this in my time.

Seems so. I didn't check why but somebody told me it was.
Also Aphromoo beating Ezreal Lulu with a very aggressive Vayne Taric. I'm surprised he stays in lane with like 400 hp and 100 mana.

Dear sweet jesus Aprhomoo is good. Maybe my favorite streamer, simply because of the amount of ownage he gives.



True destruction :O


More like Muffinqt preparing perfect situations for aphromoo to kill the opponents.
That was more impressive than aphromoos clean ups.

The life of a support player.


Not really. Muffinqt did his job but nothing impressive. People need to learn the difference from "the support making huge plays" and "the support using his spells in a way that's effective".

Aphro showed huge balls and seemed to know exactly how much his character was capable of doing.
Often you get the feeling the support carrys the AD in lane, the AD is usually out of position and farming, but here the support just initiates and GTFOs and aphro does work.

He needed a couple nice leona E's though.

I mean, not like he's a bad support, he's good, but he's by no means the reason aphros dominating here. Most good supports can do the same thing. But for examples sometimes you just watch chausters support and he does shit like flash janna tornadoing 4 ppl or something and you're just like "wow wtf"


What? This is the last thing I would have expected a high elo player to have said. If it was some low elo dude I would have flamed for ignorance.

Let's look at the first play in the clip - it was all Leona having balls. That is the definition of "the support making huge plays". To be fair, Aphromoo backed her up to his credit.

The second play I would admit is all Aphromoo's credit instead, knowing to dive for the kill on Ezreal. Here landing the Leona E was "the support using his spells in a way that's effective".

He was nerfed a while back.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.
