how to pick a shit team thats guaranteed to lose

single target assassin mid, single target melee jung, single target bruiser top

add in a super short range caster and a short range adc while youre at it, i dont even care

lets go ahead and have the next game start exactly the same too

lee sin
mord
olaf
zilean
caitlyn (me)

vs

nidalee
morgana
diana
draven
renekton

this is going to be reaaaaal coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

0 LP

im sure im under .500 now too

just a special recognition poop too for the guy who picks zilean when he knows his lane opponent is morgana

i will bomb u so hard draven, who cares that 1 of your autoattacks is the same damage as my bomb

and spellshield makes you immune to them

lel

lost a lot of games, my matchmaking rating is probably getting closer to where im actually at (gold 5), since it was a bit higher after my placements (was getting 25 LP for wins, -12 for losses)

i need to play more games at top to learn more matchups, i wish i knew someone who just wanted to play the first 4 levels of a lane matchup over and over, since theres way too many top matchups where basically the whole lane outcome is decided before level 2/3

will also start to try jungling more, since i really suck at support and ADC, am mediocre at mid, and cant always get a solo lane

I'll 1v1 with you

gonna play about 5 games tonight, will blolg about all of them probably

game 1; top two picks are duo queue, they take both solo lanes

shyvana
TF
trundle jung (me)
lucian
nami

vs

ryze
leblanc
elise
trist
morg

they have insane magic damage bursting potential, this is going to be very tricky

Gotta doje the CC skillshots and you should outclass late game with your tank lline.

shyvana won lane
bottom lost, but not terribly
tf middle got destroyed by leblanc, then elise, then leblanc, then leblanc and elise, cried about "theres nothing i can do" over and over
nami admitted 10 minutes into the game, that as 5th pick, he didnt choose support, so he wasnt going to buy a single ward or support item, instead went for a rylais first item (why rylais? i cant even make up a reason for a nami in this game to have a rylais)

we somehow took the game 40 minutes, down 5 dragons to 0, down about 15 kills
tristana ended up becoming so huge, kindof out of nowhere, eventually destroyed us (elise and leblanc destroyed midgame thanks to pure feed in middle, but they tapered off late game, they really were fortunate to have trist to deal all the damage)

analysis
i would give myself a 2.5/5, did average, was sort of a situation where top was doing too well to help, bot was too far behind to help (and 0 warding), and mid was way too shitty to help
tf mid gets 1/5
adc did well, if nami played as a proper support they would have won, 4/5
nami 1/5 for borderline trolling
shyvana 4/5, won lane somewhat decisively, but tried to be a superhero in teamfights all game

loss -0 LP (0 LP)

irelia
jungle amumu
lucian
chogath mid (me)
volibear

team was switching who was doing who in champ select, i dont like the picks, i dont want to mid chogath

vs

aatrox
gragas
pantheon
ezreal
sona

lost again
amumu jungle is stupid, this isnt season 1, he gave the enemy top a double kill on his first gank attempt (pantheon)
bot lost
i farmed really well in middle, eventually got ganked a few times by aatrox (never seen this champion before, typical new league champ)
all in all we held on way too long, again, it was a competitive game between 2 teams of bad players

and somehow this aatrox, who only has 5 kills and 160 CS in a 37 minute game, is able to literally leech more damage than 3 people can do to him, i guess cc is the only answer to that, and he rebirths himself when he dies to leech more

5 losses in a row

analysis
give myself 3/5, would be higher but i got ganked by aatrox twice in lane phase, otherwise did pretty well in the circumstances
bot donno, couldnt pay enough attention to them
top did poorly, but for the same reason, jungle amumu cannot gank at all 2.5/5
jungle mummy 2/5, donno if he was bad or the champ is really useless (worst ganking skills of any other jungler there is?)

in before demotion

side note, what is elise?

shes a burst mage who is a tank, with a hard escape, ranged snares, and slows

just picked another terrible team

zed mid (me, was designated mid by team)
jax autolock top
jinx
vi jungle (typical shitpick, more single target melee)
ziggs

vs

amumu
lissandra
singed (good counter pick)
thresh
vayne

i guess i have to be super aggressive and bank on amumu not being able to gank

im too passive with zed, probably too unfamiliar and unskilled with him

ping spikes to 800 for 5 seconds are really going to help me too

if jax dies first to singed, im calling the game gn8

lol
heres one better
he never connected to the game
6 consecutive losses
ill probably stop playing if i get bumped to silver league

i also lost to lissandra, i need to stop playing zed
vi got singed dog'd
donno if bot won or lost, i didnt even care

i should be playing better than i am, and its making me sad
i dont know what champions to play any more

spencer and i win like 1 out of every 10 arams because we are literally paired with the worst of the worst

kha mid (me)
shyv top
lucian
ryze support
vi jungle


vs


katarina
amumu
varus
lux (supp)
mundo (top)


our last pick, support ryze, absolutely raging because i didnt ban amumu and has the defeated mindset before we start, raging at everyone on the team

2014
ban amumu

JAX
RAMMUS
IRELIA
HEIMERDINGER
SEJUANI

VS

CAITLYN
TWISTED FATE
LEBLANC
ALISTAR
LUX

next game

yasuo
singed
malphite jung
ezreal
leona (me) literally the most boring champion i have, and most painful to play

vs

luxian
zyra
kayle
wukong
khasix

we have plenty of melee for wukong to kill and zyra to snare
they will beware malphite jungle ganks, hes ferocious

10/3/14

can't carry ryze

fed all game

"im not trying, you all suck, blah blah blah blah"

i got honored by enemy team and my own, tried to get him to cooperate




i hate playing with people who play like i used to




edit: lucian and vi did suck pretty hard, but at least they tried their best; game lasted 36 minutes longer than it should have

have you tried annie/zyra/blitzcrank supports?

singed got destroyed by wukong, i dont even know
we lost bottom against zyra and lucian, big surprise
dont know what happened mid, dont really care
malphite has 4 kills from ganks, and because hes malphite he can do literally nothing with the gold except continue being a malphite

complaining happened
were gonna lose, 7 losses

if i can lose all five and go on an 8-game 2-day losing streak, that would be magical

jinx
chogath
riven jungle
fiddlestix support
zed (me)

vs

lux
volibear
renekton
thresh
caitlyn

this is most definitely winnable

super GZ, also 1337

was able to bully lux through levels 1-3, then volibear came charging in from top jung at about 50% hp, i flashed down to the bush at start of bottom river, turned around and blew a load on volibear for buffs + first blood, then my cooldown was up to clone flash across the wall to stay alive

lux became snowballed at that exact point, i think i killed her once or twice in lane then she roamed to bot for ganks (did a good job not giving up 5 kills/tower right away)

bottom was ok, it seemed about even
riven had good coordination when lux went down, to save our bot laners/tower, whilst i dropped towers
top was not very good, renekton was a couple kills up, but they were mostly farming

level 1 lane matchup means so much, especially in a melee vs ranged/caster situation

if i hadnt landed the shurikens i did, and if i hadnt dodged the lux snares that i did (level 1,2), i would have gotten killed and then myself probably been snowballed

my team that game had a serious case of "we just killed every enemy on this half of the map and theres 3 of us marching down the middle of the lane, i need to kill wraiths right now" syndrome

mostly why the game was 37:27 long

matching rating definitely tanked, now queueing vs people closer to my skill/division than when i was right out of placements

no more platinums, lots more silvers

was gonna play a couple more games, servers down

just played a lulu in a normal game, and it was hilarious how bad everyone on both teams was

i think my support champs from now on are lulu and annie (lulu free week)

ezreal
kayle top
malz mid (me)
thresh
khasix jung

vs

chogath
kat
morgana
sivir
jarvan

i think bot will lose, mid and top should both win

enemy slightly won top lane, was ahead in farm with even kills/towers
bottom was same thing, bit of a stalemate
i won mid, malzahar vs katarina is so easy, although it became apparent later in game that kat wasnt that good


progression

my CS was way off in that game, something about malzahars attack animation/speed i guess, i think i had 10 cs after 5 minion waves
should have been way higher because kat had to stay off the minions completely

oh yeah, you cant play free champions in ranked

maybe ill buy lulu when i have the points

aatrox jung
darius
caitlyn
annie (me)
lux (this is a retarded pick, they have zed on their team)

vs

ziggs
lee sin
zed
draven
thresh

no idea how we will do bottom, if zed is mid then lux will get ass raped, hopefully hes top (doubt it)
aatrox should be a good jung if hes as good as the last time i saw that champ
