I'd be willing to get my ass kicked if it helped me get better.  If I'm not at work or whatever I'd be happy to join an in house to try and improve.

Woot. Behind 1500 posts on Monday, catch up by Thursday. I'd love to do inhouses if it was something I could plan and schedule for! It's always kinda meh to try and ask in LP as a lowbie for w/e stupid reason.

Since the 10 players are just randomly picked, the teams are BOUND to be imbalanced, and tbh, you won't learn much from this.
I think we should just push players of «similar level» to play ranked 5s together, because :
1) They will face lots of different opponents
2) They can learn together really fast
Ofc, sometimes you can pick-up a lowbie to let him see what it's like to play with 4 gods, a bit like what we're doing with Teutonica. Y u no do it with me? :< Also, i'd like to see this happen in EU, Neo y u 'MURICAN Honestly, EU always seems to suck compared to NA when it comes to community in EVERY game i fuckin' play. I wish i was american or at least lived near there now T.T
... I'm on EUW xD

It's hard to be the initiator when you're the one that sucks is all. There's not the same appeal as Neo organizing something. That I can jump at, otherwise the appeal just isn't there when I ask I would think. Not whining just realistic about it

Having to play against Elise jungle + Anivia getting destroyed and thus no items reminds me of how retarded their base damage are.
(Not that they aren't bullshit in their own right far and away from simply base damage, but that component makes them pretty retarded even early game and/or when behind.)

I by far prefer the un-skinned Syndra... as a main Syndra who has played 95% Syndra.

syndra would be an excellent candidate for wearing pants

Syndra has pretty high tier feet.

I would like to try and learn. I'm probably plastic-aluminum (maybe copper if people feel like being nice ) elo though. I was thinking of at least going tryharder for one day on weekends or so.
