New inhouse logistics TBD. In the meantime, feel free to hang out in the league general discord https://discord.gg/0lCEKA3jUEFxERzd ("add lol" in #welcome) and get some ad-hoc games going! |

I am tank Graves. What do you not understand?
You don't have to bottleneck yourself into one specific playstyle. The goal was to avoid fighting them in a straight on 5v5 because regardless of what I picked we were going to lose 5s. The goal was to establish enough of a split push game to allow our Tryndamere to get big and create space for him.
It's not that I didn't listen to you, it's because you need to be open to more things and try them out. Not everyone has to bottleneck themselves into playing Zed, Shen, and Vayne because they're batshit OP.

Something I was reminded of after playing last night: I have forgotten/fallen out of the swing of playing with real teammates.
There were two distinct moments in my Annie game that I really messed up:
1. Not going to blue to help Monte with my blue immediately. I wanted to clear the wave that had just gotten there as Monte started my blue. As a result, he took a lot of damage and could not gank bot.
2. I went to gank bot, and we saw Amumu coming in a little bit behind me. I wasn't phased and just wanted to drop Tibbers on Chobz's face. However, I didn't communicate my commitment to the gank, and Storrzerg didn't fire his arrow until it was too late. Ultimately my fault for not using my words.
It's the little things, but those habits are definitely easy to fix, and will definitely translate to better play in arranged and solo games.

No where in the OP do I encourage people to be more open and try things out.
Roffles, I give you a shit ton of leeway with your attitude and your builds (GP10 Graves, mass Zeal Yi, etc). But stop pushing the envelope by making your team accept you running Jungle Graves or Jungle Leona. You're just as bad as all those people from previous TL LoL IH iteration where they wanted to go Heimer mid against lesser players. Also, don't try to justify your choice by saying you win with it.
I get that when you get drunk at night, you just want to have fun, but not at the expense of others.

We need a Tipsy Liquid in house for people to play in. Everyone playing must have a mic and not be sober. What could possibly go wrong?

I often don't participate in the regular in houses for fear of not doing my best when i would qualify as not sober so I would definitely join those games.

I mean, the point of the normal games is to try to improve in a structured setting. Fear of not doing your best is not a valid excuse =P alright then how bout i know i wont improve much when i'm drunk

Please Roffles, don't go full retard just because you are given leeway here. On forums w/e, you're the veteran, but TLIH is more indiscriminate, respect that.

Wait, there are people who play inhouses sober?

Goofing off while wasted is fun too, but these two types of fun mix rather poorly. And most of us don't have the freedom to get wasted on a thursday night.

I don't have the freedom to do so its more of a question of fortitude and caffeine. But when i do so i don't play in houses. I play pantheon on dominion and giggle.

I was making a joke to deflect from my obvious alcohol abuse.
Also, I can believe it, Steve. Who goes ap janna in ARAMS? She needed like triforce, wits, and warden's mail... much more standard.
edit: Yes, nasus farm also op. Bitches didn't even know what was up.

Do you want to support the Koreans, Storr?

The solo laner has been kidnapped by ninjas. Are you a bad enough jungler to rescue the solo laner?
