    Last I heard, last thread we were told by Echo not to make a new thread until the mods lock the old one.

    It could be that they want to make the new OP with a big "THIS IS HOW MANY PEOPLE WE BANNED, DON'T BE GEESE," banner on it. Or they just wanna keep tabs on us. Or they just don't want us to be able to edit the OP. It's not unprecedented for mods to do that.


    This thread has been on thin ice before with mods, so nobody's taking any chances and we're all trying to stay in accordance with mod wishes.

    We had a great setup.

    Shaco, Shen, Sivir, Junglesticks, Caitlyn.

    I knew that Caitlyn would be trouble from the moment she was picked. People playing Shaco don't bother me because they probably have some idea what to do with him in a PvP match if you pick Shaco. Bot matches? Feh, that's for practising your rotation or item build or runes/masteries and stuff and just shenanigans.

    But I'm starting to learn that people picking a character from the f2p week list is just asking for trouble. Our Caitlyn ended the match with 3/11/3, and we lost. Mostly because the player behind Caitlyn was acting like a goose the entire match, running off on her own to get ganked, and not helping in teamfights.

    If there are people under the tower right before an inhibitor, and you're standing back with full health/mana doing nothing to protect it? You are a derp.

    My logic being that if I see (going with the example) a Shaco player in a bot match, I will assume "This player is either learning, or practising, the fundamentals of Shaco".

    In a PvP game when he is not F2P week I assume "This person has gone out of their way to purchase Shaco. They probably have an idea of what to do."

    In a PvP game when he is in F2P week I assume "Oh great it's some smacktard goose going THIS GUY LOOKS COOL I WILL TRY HIM."

    To his credit, the Shaco was really good. Knew what to do. The enemy Akali kept screaming obscenities at him over /all chat. :D

    So, since the nerf to Nunu I've had a lot less fun playing him (read: he's not overpowered anymore :P) I'm trying to figure out what jungler to pick up next.

    I've been eyeing Nocturne (for ganks) or Trundle (for...well, not 100% sure why. He seems solid and I like the way he looks.)

    You would assume so since its logical. In practice they all feed , unless they are on the other team in which case you are fucked.

    So I been pushing out some Sona action hard lately. I bought my AP types runes (well, I am about halfway done them) and have been doing the aura heavy Sona. Its awesome having 100 armor and MR and people still try to target you. Don't blame them, when i am buffing the everloving shit out of my team.

    I just need to find a good order to build, as the only problem is I find I am very low on money most of the time. But even when my team sucks at teamfights we just never die and my ult alone gets them like a big head start.

    The whole philo stone thing doesn't do it for me. You have to rush it to get anything out of it and I would rather get something to buff my team by the time teamfights start.

    Once I finish my runes I will go back to cass, I noticed the disadvantage when all I have for her is armor pen and mana regen :|.

    There's a few reaaaaally good ones, but every single Shaco game absolutely depends on getting him a couple of early kills. And he's bugged and hard to play, so that most of the time people feed like crazy. I had one go 30+ kills in a high level normal a few days ago. It was a sight to behold.

    it's all a matter of being in the right place at the right time for shaco, or for the enemy team, wrong place at the wrong time

    Eh, I'm not that great, just average.

    You're just really passive in your laning and teamfights from what I saw in that game. It got on my nerves a little. I needed something to push you. :P

    Just had a game where every turret in the game died. At one point after a ww backdoor our nexus was down to about 400 health and the other team only had one nexus turret so it created a weird stalemate for awhile as both sides split up into defense teams and attack teams to try to do damage. Eventually they pushed all together and we managed to beat them but it was really tense for awhile.

    Dear god man. How long did the enemy team let you freefarm?

    A long time. We had the game in the bag by the start of midgame anyway when our PuG Teemo stopped fucking around on his own and did his job. The game itself lasted about 50 minutes.

    Plus Kay is like, our go-to guy when there is a creep build up. I can't explain it, but any character he picks they're just... Gone. And he comes back stronger and more angry and the enemy team crap their drawers and run off.

    I was okay with my Irelia result. 14/7/13. I did a lot of stupid death mistakes, but it was hilarious giving Varethius (as Sona) a heart attack when I was being chased on low health and just turn around, Equilibrium Strike for the stun, and bugger off to let the team catch up and gank him. Poor Master Yi.

    Myself (Irelia), Italax (Anivia) went bottom lane against a Poppy and a Master Yi. Two dumb deaths on my part but they lead to situations with both a dead Poppy and Master Yi so we really hammered them early game on tower pressure. Anivia and Irelia work really well together - nothing really gets away from that much slowing going on.

    We were pretty much just teamfighting in mid. Whenever there was a minion build up in either top or bot we'd alternate sending our tanky Irelia (Dunxco) or our Tanky Nasus (Kay). It was great stuff.

    And by god does sona turn fights around. Ammount of times I managed to save someone with Ult + heal + Move buff.

    It's pretty fantastic. I've had several games today where I was blitz and had either kog or teemo with me, and I'd just pull them in, combo, and if they had much health left exhaust and let my partner tear them apart while they tried to run away.
