trying to learn how to solo top I either get stuck going ap mid or get stuck in a lane with a ranged carry and get frustrated all day. I feed 4 kills straight off the bat to ashe (who is everywhere this week) and rek. I start to get really depressed at myself and the game and I can't focus in any way. Then suddenly I get into this trance and I just play perfectly without thinking. farm up the jungle and dragon while collecting red and blue buffs. after some crazy hyjinks with their kat ulting on me and me interrupting it and blasting her down before jumping over to annie junking the hell out of her combo I manage to do a lot of damage in a teamfight and we never looked back after that.

going to grind my way to getting kennen and then I'll be wingsofdeath for sure.

Some days, magic happens (although Darius and Noct were constantly flaming each other, and admittely, the other team wasn't very good, but still, doesn't matter, have win!)

Get in game. Ask for top. Pick Pantheon against Vladimir.
You're a noob they said.
Pantheon can't beat mages they said.
Pantheon is a terribad champion they said.

*Summoner 1 has left the game!*

Get matched on opposite team. Come at me Ezreal and Jungle Fiddlesticks.

Pantheon is king.

Just had a game with alistar and malaphite on my team. Wow it was not fun for the opponents getting tossed around the whole game.

I killed Riven with Irelia at level 5.

I didn't even know that was possible.

I started ulting as Karthus on top of a turret with 200 hp and two enemy champions almost right on top of me... didn't get interrupted and killed their Vayne, who was the only real threat. Like a boss.

I have been carrying so hard tonight it's not even funny.

Doesn't matter where I go.

I'm always trying to prepare myself to finally start playing ranked so I go in and don't say anything, just pick last role available.

AD Bottom? My Graves has been winning all day.
Jungle? Shyvana carry, or super Maokai
Mid? Morgana like a boss
Top? Vladimir.....just went 329 CS to the Volibear's 98.
Support? I carry as Leona all day starting perfect teamfights.

I've literally never felt this good about my League play before.

If I hadn't told myself I'm waiting for my new computer to play ranked I'd go start right now.

I just had a 55 minute game with the most abusive group of people ever. Everyone (except me) were calling each other noobs and saying they're retarded, one of them threatened to afk the entire game and I kept telling everyone not to argue and stay together and follow me (Jarvan) and we managed to barely pull off a victory even though we had surrender requests from 20 mins into the game. Then in the endgame chat, 2 people thanked me for keeping the team together and being a good tank. Feelsgoodman.jpg

For the first time ever I was on the side of a 4v5 that won. Right from the start Teemo dced and never came back, so I had to top v Vlad as Amumu. It actually didn't go all that badly...he outfarmed me but I almost killed him a couple times (he healbaited me and killed me one of those times).
I was bitching and moaning the ENTIRE game because the other 4 (well, 3) were a premade so they didn't want to surrender or even report the Teemo. Swain just kept telling me how OP Swain/Amumu is and to keep fighting and that we can do this.

In the end we were able to permastun Vlad in every teamfight before he could do anything at all and we won without a Baron ever being taken by either team. Even got a Quadra in one of the teamfights.
I'm partially proud of myself but partially ashamed of behaviour ingame...I did apologize to them...they were really cool about it.

That feeling when my 1520 max Jangle defeats some 1800 jangler who spends the entire time talking shit.

Team feeds 6 stright kills while I'm holding my own against ganks in mid and getting a lot of farm with morgana.

1. Get soulstealer
2. Carry game
3. worry about what to get to reduce cooldown now that you have a -15% debuff

Finally got a first win of the day bonus, so I was happy. Now that school's out, I can power my way up to Level 30.

advice from an experienced player: don't get to 30 on bot games. much much better to play normals. bots can't even compare to human players. you will learn much more from the game playing bads than playing bots

So I've been steadily gaining elo, was feeling pretty good, and then I hit 1337 elo!. I think I'll just stop playing ranked for a long long time (perfect timing to prepare for finals and get cracking on applications, except that I'll just end up playing normals all day instead).
