meanwhile in normalville you are lucky to get an auto
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Wow this Travis is ballsy, after taking sotg idea and making his own show "state of the league", now he is doing a "real talk" with marn, not even trying to get his show a different name or something. Unreal.

It varies a lot for me in 1400. Sometimes when I ask for smiteless I do get a lot of help. Other times I literally don't even get a single auto and have to completely solo it >.<

So... Jax against Elise. How do I play that? Do I just give up on any cs and wait for her to kill my tower?

Whatever. She pressed Q twice at level 1, got level 2, pressed W, then QRQ, ignite, and I dropped to 50 hp using a pot and a flask charge.
And Rappel still casts through stuns. Nice.~

0K, she reached Yorick/Jayce levels of "Combining extreme ease of play and lack of counterplay to an infuriating point" before level 10 on the first time I play against her. I feel more justified than ever for systematically banning her.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

I can't remember the last time i have not gotten a smiteless. Like, even if i play something like nautilus, and don't really WANT a smiteless pull because i plan to run a lvl 4 route, and tell that to my team, i STILL get a smiteless.

Also, a question for the better players out there.

What do I do as mid when my team loses their towers and then hangs out in mid like it's the cool thing to do?

I seem to be having this problem a lot recently, where I am winning my lane but other lanes are losing theirs and lose their towers. Then rather than keep their minions pushed they think it's time to go roaming and end up in mid, and then suddenly their guys are in mid too, but their laners have kills and tower gold and mine don't and we just start teamfighting in mid and losing over and over because no pressure is being put top and bottom.

Do I just leave mid and go push one of the other lanes? I've been trying to politely explain to my team that the reason I have to deal with their top lane and bot lane being in mid is because top and bot aren't being pushed, but this is a concept that it's difficult to get through to people in the middle of a game.

It makes me real angry because I am having lots of games where I'm winning my lane but not by much until I'm fighting the enemy top and bot lanes 1v3 or whatever in mid, get killed a few times, and then my team says it's all my fault.


you need to be able to judge if your other 4 can hold mid vs 5. if they can and you are a fast pusher, then taking the outer turrets will do your team a lot of good. eventually one of the enemy team (or more if you're strong!) will have to come to stop your push (when you're at their inner, usually) and that pressure buys the other 4 members of your team time to farm their own jungle or engage 4v4 or 4v3 if its opportune etc.

if your team can't hold as 4 and you're at their outer turret pushing, as you might imagine you'll lose a looot of towers and control middle. you'll either have to hold and try to engage on them when they're on your turret if its contestable, or turtle really hard and maximize what farm you can.

To be honest you have to deal with their bot and top lane because top and bot lost. Having people show up in mid is normal in this case. Navi already explained two standard tactics against that. If you have the appropriate heroes, you can try to split push and thereby relieve the pressure that the enemy team is able to put on your team due to the loss of the tower. Or you can try to stall in mid and see if you can get a good teamfight. You're obviously at a disadvantage, but you should be.

Apart from that you need to accept, that if bot and top are lost, you're playing at a disadvantage, so you cannot just pretend, that people should return to their lanes and carry on as normal. If bot/top just freeze and farm, the enemy can just 5 man push mid down and take total map control, which also isn't ideal. Aggressively pushing out is also dangerous, because without the tower your side lanes are much more exposed to being ganked.

People are so pussy, unless they are like 10 kills ahead, then they get insanely aggressive and dive past 3 towers. The second i engage on anything, people spam retreat and run away, i don't understand why. Why do you want to let the enemy choose their fights, instead of choosing them yourself? Also, is there a good way to get your team to team up, because somehow, the second you have 5 persons at the same spot, 2 of them back out already because they get bored.

Yeah true, who cares that you rip off the title from the show of someone else, respect toward others and their work is overrated anyway, as long as you invite someone different.

I don't think it is such a big deal but common courtesy would be to at least think about an original name. Here is my suggestion : Straight talk with Marn.

this!! SO much this!! Drives me insane.

Also when you're like 30 kills ahead with baron buff and the enemy team only has one nexus tower left and your team still insists on going around getting buffs and farming dragon because the 200 gold from drag is going to make all the difference on whether you win or not at that point.

That's not an excuse at all. The only reason people even feel this way is because JP isn't exactly the highest of profiles. If someone blatantly plagiarized someone like Day9. or whoever you respect in this arena, I highly doubt you people would feel this way.

JP is even doing more LoL content... Travis is insanely unoriginal. I don't even think he is particularly well spoken. I find him pretty damn awkward at times.
