Just had a game with a dc of our mid at like level 4. We played well 4v5, but they were able to outfarm and push me in bot so I couldn't get a level advantage.
Im not sure how many game I've played. Went 4-6 in placement and think I just hit 10 wins. I know I'm sub .500 by at least 4 games. It's lookin like I'm probably gonna fall between the upper 1000's to the mid 1250's when my Elo swings are over. Before that DC game I was
Mid 1100's and on a little win streak.
Also I edited it Into a post earlier but which CDR blues do i want?

I just had an interesting game where their mid and jungler would run down the river and gank me and janna by running past our tower. I was Kog and bought a ward to stop these shenanigans and I notice our Janna, at level 4, has 5 wards in her inventory. And there they stayed.

You mean... wards don't grant any benefits while in your inventory? UP MAN!
EDIT: So I got full build on Shyvana.
The game wasn't anything special, rocky start into proof of why Shaco is a bad Jungler. We also had uneven levels on our team so the opposition was all over the place. But yeah, full build. I was able to get the Cleaver and Warmogs in one go, selling my Wriggles.

Shyvana is actually one of the few champions who can pull off Fratmogs effectively, due to her ultimate; you should try Wit's End, Warmogs, Frozen Mallet, Banshee's Veil, Atma's, and Mercs.
5k health with 220 armor and MR, spell shield, and 250AD. It's pretty fun to tank two turrets and not notice your health go down.

Yeah, I know she can, I just hate building an early Warmogs. My build with her this far has been Wit's> Frozen Mallet> Atmas, then games have usually ended. But I'm getting bits of Warmogs on her every time. I got the cleaver because they didn't have significant AP damage apart from Shaco's Bloodrazor and he never really went for me, so I saw no point in getting more defense. Especially since they were so squishy I just figured Cleaver would be better, since AD, aspeed and armour debuff is nice on her.
And when you have over 4k gold on backing, there's a bit of a luxury problem.

My metric for Shyvana is Wriggles, Mercs, WE, and Phage (plus a few wards) by 25 minutes. You can get that by doing literally nothing but farming your own jungle for 25 minutes, so if you're running around doing other things and still managing to hit that, you're doing grand.
Of all the straight deeps items, I'd say that Black Cleaver is probably the best for her.
I've been hitting that mark, every game, I think. Though I usually pull off her ganks, she's got amazing damage.
It looked like that to me.

Soooo. Solo-top Warwick.
Sorc Shoes, Wit's End, Spirit Visage, Randuins, Frozen Heart, then if they have HP, Madred's and throw one item for Void Staff. But which item? I guess it depends on team comp, but if there's not much AD, ditch Randuins (especially if someone else has one)?
I personally like Shurelias instead of Spirit Visage. Then you can put in GA, FoN or FM instead of Randuins, depending on team. Void staff is much better than MBR, especially with 40% CDR against tanky teams.
Did an intermediate botmatch for the win of the day because none of the buddies were on and I didn't feel like risking it in solo queue.
Urrgh, like pulling teeth. People running around at random and getting nuked by gank squads, Ryze being a walking buffet, Kayle and Morgana taking turns calling me a noob for not soloing a three-bot gank squad...
Finally managed to poke turrets enough to take down inhibitors and end the goddamn thing.

Just played a game I never expected to win. I get in the lobby and immediately select jungle Rammus (second game jungling, second game with Rammus). Someone picks Caitlyn and immediately starts yelling "no jangle. no jangle!" I told them I had no idea what that meant and stayed the course. We get in game and our Kassadin and Caitlyn immediately start fighting over mid, which ends in a game of chicken with the other team's Caitlyn in mid. Their Cait gets tower dove by our Kass not once, but TWICE and resulting in two kills for their Cait before minions even show up. Our Cait starts spamming random shit in chat, I put them on ignore.
I was positive that this game was going to end horribly so I resigned myself to just practicing my jungle route. I get off two ganks in mid that result in kills, two ganks in bot that result in kills, and generally just ran around giving no fucks. Went 5/2/17 as we cruised to victory, felt pretty good.
I like Rammus a lot but I'm not sure how crazy I am about jungling. It seems like the highest pressure role (in terms of decision making) in the game, and every jungler jungles differently obviously. Also I'd imagine my route would change over time with runes? Oi.
Also random sidnote @Echo's post above - did they nerf Akali at some point? I feel like I used to see her all the time and now never.
Also I edited it Into a post earlier but which CDR blues do i want?
Depends really. CDR/lv caps out at 10%, so you get them when you want 40% cdr with a full build. I can't remember what the flat ones comes to, but you get them if you need the cdr early. I've got the scaling ones from back when I played Lux, but they've mostly been replaced with ap and mres runes now.
Man, learning to jungle properly seems like the most daunting thing in this game. No other role has quite the potential for all four of your teammates to be yelling at you simultaneously. No, I can't help top and bot lane simultaneously. Yes, I might have trouble ganking a Kennen as Shyvana. Cut me some slack.

You just have to learn to ignore it, people just use the jungler as a scapegoat. Just be honest with yourself and try to think what you could have actually done better each game, instead of listening to all the white noise.
Why is it every time I want to play jungle twitch in blind pick everyone decides they want to play Teemo, Veigar, Kat, and Talon all on the same team with me?
blind pick is why
Yeah I started an alt for the referral thing one night and hated having to do blind pick again
I had some good luck with it today on my EU-W account. Our bot lane was fizz / teemo, which wasn't ideal, but it allowed me to clean up mid.
Which CDR blues do you want to get again? Flat or per level?
I say flat on all runes, actually. Runes matter a lot early on, but comparatively little relative to gear late game, so I say take the runes you need to definitively win your lane, get great CS, and then spend the extra thousands of gold you will have because of that to make up any shortcomings.

notable exception is mana regen runes, which break even at level four (meaning that by the time you hit level 3 you are at 75% effectiveness, and by the time you hit level six you are at 150% effectiveness)
I now have no qualms tuning out my teammates to the cries of "save my lane" "no its not worth the effort". However, when in a prearranged team I get calls for help that I also ignore, but they get extra upset over it. Basically I need to tell my irl friends to enjoy their slow deaths because some lanes aren't worth ganking.

That is all.
But you probably, perhaps, should not have been standing all alone in mid lane right up to the river with zero map awareness in a do or die situation.

SV strikes me as a strictly midgame item, not part of a finished build.
