It took 3 promotion series, but the third time was the charm. Finally got promoted to gold 4 after going 2-0. Both the teams I played with did really well. Had a Veigar counterpick himself against Monkey and was really worried he'd feed, but he actually ended up stomping his lane and made winning the game really easy. Yay! :D

Also: why is my promotion message so lame compared to the others? Is this a graphics setting thing or something? >_>

You only get the super flashy graphics thing when moving between tiers, not divisions (as far as I can tell).

The more I watch that video, the more what gets me isn't the crit as much as Monte's banana grin afterwards. He's like a kid who just got offered a huge ice cream. Good mood is communicative.

Well, I've been winning games left and right. According to lolking, I'm somewhere around 1900 elo, and still winning a lot. Doesn't feel much different than the 16-1700's I was stuck in for the longest time though. I think the biggest difference is the decision making.

I've been gaining 25-27 LP per game, so the system still thinks I have a ways to go upwards. Just qualified for my promotion series to plat IV, and hopefully soon after plat III and maybe even II.

Just went Voyman style on Olaf, like 20-5-12. So fun running straight at the carry and watching nobody be able to do anything about it though, lol. This god awful Amumu on our team though was having a hissy fit with me because I'd "scare Graves out of the ult", I laughed at him and he made various insults and told me to go die etc. Was pretty funny seeing as he was the heaviest member on the team by far.

Now I must practice my top Xin Zhao :D

Tried out red elixir start on Riven.

Mid gives up first blood.
Bottom is struggling.

I'm completely dominating my lane.

I start roaming at 3-0, saving my jungler maokai from Amumu - getting red buff in the process. 4-0, then getting some assists while helping out mid and dragon. Go back top because my turret is being pushed, flash onto him and kill him thanks to the redbuff slow.

In teamfights I was able to absorb a significant amount of damage while taking out whoever dared show near me. (went like BT Brutalizer Hexdrinker (Hex to make sure I didn't die to the karthus ulti) but I'm still playing carefully, I don't want to throw my spree gold away.

My team did their job in teamfights, too - some credit goes to them - making sure amumu couldn't really get a good ulti onto many of us at once while I blew up karthus or whoever else dared close.

End g ame 10-0-7. Felt good carrying that hard.

I had this really bizarre sequence of events where 3 people on my team died near baron, enemy team started baron. Their bottom inhibitor is down, so Kennen is defending that. I'm near full health and there's a minion wave at mid, so I'm like "screw it, I can kill a half dead tower in like 5 seconds, I'm Jax. Maybe even damage the inhibitor tower a good amount."

So I do that, but the enemy team arrives way sooner than I expect them to. I manage to get away with like 4 ward hops+flash (some of the wards were my teammates set up from baron). My starting point was just a bit above their middle inhibitor tower (of bottom team), and I made it all the way up to top tribush before they stopped chasing me.

Turns out they stopped baroning specifically to try to kill me and stop me from taking their tower. We catch MF ~1 minute later and then get a free baron out of that. The rest of the game was pretty easy, all because they gave up baron to chase me. xD

played a game with a couple tl'ers and one went support annie

tried in ranked, responses in champ select:

omg troll
gg report annie
fucker
(some shit in spanish)
ff20
some1 dodge plz plz plz

levels 1-5, zoning the shit out of sona/ez but no kills yet, jungler refuses to gank b/c he thinks we're still trolling. hit level 6, and we get about 5 kills in 3 minutes. jungler decides "ok, maybe this can work" and decides to help out and we get snowballed pretty hard.

enemy bot lane +jungle tries to rush a dragon after they kill graves while im back (buying RoA + kage in one go), i flash into pit and drop the bear on them. double kill (ez gets out with stupid double blink) AND I get dragon.

end game with 400+ AP trolololol.
