In my experience dealing with people who've left games, you get the red name in postgame after you've been disconnected for five minutes, even if you come back afterwards. I may be mistaken or that may have changed since I made that observation, though.

So annoying to "lose" a game that was literally won. Trying my hardest, even made some clutch stuns with 12 000 ping Irelia.

Victory/Defeat banners looks really good, old ones were kinda meh. Also new minimap icons are a very big + too.

she is the opposite of fun to play against.
i dont understand the thought processes that went into creating that champion, before or after the rework. Fully agree. Instantly makes any game less fun.
Top of the delete list.

on how I have been winning as toplaner while actually having an Impact:
1) pick amumu or galio
2) survive lane with as much farm as you can scrap together (easy on Galio , moderate on Amumu)
3) build roa , grail and hourglass
4) press r
The game is so focused on lategame that a good catch immediatly ends the game, no matter how behind you are. One good amumu ult will win you the game same with galio, but it's harder to get into a good position with him.
Only way to lose like this is either your other lanes feeding obsene amounts of kills (and you would lose those games no matter what) or you screwing up too hard in lane.

However I have been trying to cope with it and knowing what it is huge for helping treat it. The reason I mention it is because I plan to write an "About me" that really goes into depth. I plan to mention my buy the computer for 1300 on my credit. Mention my ADHD as it is part of me for better or for worse. Mention why i love league and make it personal.
I suffer from a bipolar mood disorder and PTSD, so I can somewhat relate to it. I wouldn't put your ADHD on your stream info. Rather be open about it if anyone brings it up in stream chat. When I streamed all my arams it wasn't hard to get ~20 viewers consistently, and the viewers quickly figured it out on their own; guess the difference between a depressive phase and mania phase me is quite noticable. 
The reason I'd advice against putting it up front, is that the internet is filled with hateful little twats that will jump on someone whenever they get the chance. If you have it in your info, you could very well end up banning a large number of your first viewers. Besides, you want them to watch you because you are you, not just because you got ADHD - if that makes sense.

I am slightly skeptical of Amumu top. He is kind of bad as a laner...

Being able to play Lulu top is really nice when your rommate duoqueue is a Wukong main who's allergic to building tank until after Lizard/Hydra/BC. All the fixed initiations!

His lane phase is pretty garbage, no question. Hence why I said get the farm you can without dying and Focus on surviving. I run health regen runes on him as he has no sustain and get roa first to expend on it.
It's not a meta toplaner by any means, but it is effective and fun. Amumu deals surprisingly high damage with some ap while still being tanky if you get out of lane without getting dumbstered. (dont pick him into riven...)

Well do you max his Q first?
|
Today I learned something new. Zac completely destroy Yasuo. After some miscommunication I was relegated from top to mid. Put on my 20MPen runepage, go 0/30/0, out rush Thornmail, Guise and Sorcs and then laugh as Yasuo and Lucian commit suicide while tickling me.
Why the hell doesn't people pick tanky AP champions that scale hard off MPen against Yasuo/autoattackers? 50 flat MPen+Thornmail = fun fun fun.
@Lane Mummy: Wouldn't you always want to max E first for the sick in-wave trades? It should have like no CD if you're getting hit by a few minions I mean.

Nasus top lane is a thing.

Lol speaking of Ryze vs Riven, got my face caved in yesterday. I knew my Shaco was coming so I was slightly less afraid than I should have been, Riven killed me as he arrived, Shaco chases all the way back to tower, dives, dies. Riven with double kill and double buff at level 2, we all know how that game went. 
I think I'm going to make a special runepage for that match-up. Armor Quints - vs MS, is MS even useful vs Riven? Armor Yellows Flat Mana Blues Armor vs MPen Reds - thoughts?

mummy would def be e max, the damage reduction + aoe would be what you'd need to clear the waves when they get shoved under tower

I lost a game vs Nasus yesterday, we were full ad (rengar, yasou, draven, vi) and we were leading 15 kills, many turrets, drakes, however, we could not push kill the inhibitor turrets fast enough and at some point nasus started to 1v5 all of us. Did not help that I was the only one (rengar) who build last whisper :-) even after 4-5 items none of the teammates had it. But the point is that Nasus can be a thing for sure

If you wanna be real cheeky, you could max W on Galio first. Makes it cake to heal off of minion aggro and gives you plenty of toughness. That's what I'll do sometimes when I'm mid against LB or something stupid like that (although I haven't done that match up since they changed her).
