    Remember how I was all like I finally got out of my slump and made it back to a positive W/L ratio?

    And that as soon as I did that I would end up losing 10 games in a row or something silly.

    at least there was one good game ._.

    Ed, I feel your pain. I went on a rager/bad play/bad luck run and went TERRIBLY negative for a bit. Been on quite the run lately though, something like 9-1 or 10-0 in last 10 games, so it comes around the other way.

    It's just been laughably bad. One game where we were up something like 30 kills to 10 and my team would just go jungle after we Ace the other team until eventually we lost. Then another game where two minutes in three people on my team left to go play counter-strike. Who even plays CS anymore?!

    Ahahahah oh man the CS loss! That is brutal. I've had "My team rolllllling, up like 15-1, and our tank and support (ofc in the same house) get dropped and don't come back"

    That was a blast.

    Of sorrow.

    3 miracle games in last 2 days.
    1: Down 10 kills, 2 turrets, enemy kills 2 of us unanswered, goes to baron. I fire a varus Q off the blind top of my screen out of spite. STEAL. Team respawns, Ace, push for win.
    2: 20 minutes in it's 20-4. Soraka and I sorta won bot lane, but we're losing everywhere else. We're pushed back to our nexus, both turrets gone, enemy team goes back to heal. Baron pops, and soraka and I jump on it, taking it down right as blitz comes to ward. We book, team is up, enemy chases to base. Jarvan ults, I ult, and their sion is down. Sivir tries to come around the cataclysm and I two shot her. Shoulda bought armor. My ult has hit the entire other team, and we take down two more with two losses of our own. The irelia jumps on me, and we double KO and both GAs proc. We come up at the same time, but our sion gets a stun off and I life steal enough to take her down. Pop their inner mid, inhib turret, inhib, 2 nexus turrets, and their up. Jarv goes left, I go right, and we take down the nexus before they can kill either.
    3: I lose top fairly bad singed v jax, and just go wander. Enemy team gets a huge lead, our bot lane is ashe/poppy and is horrible, but at 20 they block the surrender. Every time I try to gank, their jungle is there. I just hide in jungle while Jax farms, eating when I can. I have 100 cs to his 250. Then our CV hits all of them sitting in a bush, and our whole team is near. Ult, charge, and we get a 1 for 4 trade. Yay, our first tower. After that the enemy team decides to ward everything. Only their sona keeps walking straight into me or poppy, and we kill her and usually 1 person that tries to save her. Jax is farming. And for 30 minutes we trade 1 for 3-4 over and over until we're tied for kills, and they're scattering like ants every time I pop my ult. Sona goes bot, we baron, gg.

    Then we blow a 15 kill lead when our tank decides to start a teamfight under their inhib tower w/ no minion support and fiddy in position to ult us. Sigh.

    Look @ that Pants game...

    Also, I definently stole Baron with a Fizz ult a couple weeks ago in a game we were getting mauled it.

    We came back and won.

    I took a break from Rumble. Came back to play him thinking I would suck and need a few games to get into the groove. All I needed was a little alone time on top with an unsuspecting Fizz.

    I just had the same problem. I thought I was doing well, but I guess I mostly was getting carried, I won like 13/15 TT games and then BOOM eight losses in a row. I guess I'm not very good even for a level 15, but it seems like I keep getting the level 12s on my team and level 17s on the other team...

    Yeah, but 10 losses in a row is fucking depressing.

    For some reason, I'm at a point where I get maybe I good game in 10.

    The other nine? Whole lot of my team focusing tanks like they're filled with game-winning candy.

    I do believe it is all a ruse by Riot to make us drop out one of our bans. So, who is no longer going to be in the list of perma-bans? Shaco? Is he nerfed to the ground yet?

    You know, I just realized that you can't play D3, in the literal sense. I mean, I can't enjoy lootgrinds like that anymore. But you actually can't. I totally forgot about your toaster.

    So Darius is a tanky bruiser with three gap closers?

    Yeah no wonder they've kept this guy on lockdown until now but hyped the shit out of Varus. Had they released Darius first I think it would've severely impacted Varus sales.

    And then the champ comes out and people complain their damage is too low (while the other half says they're OP). And the circle of LoL continues.

    - Hemorrhage (Passive): Darius aims his attacks strategically, causing his to target bleed. This effect stacks up to five times.
    - Decimate: Darius swings his axe in a lethal circle. Enemies struck by its blade take more damage than those struck by its shaft.
    - Crippling Strike: Darius's next attack severs a crucial artery. As the target bleeds out, their movement and attack speeds are slowed. Crippling Strike's cooldown is lower the more bloodied its target.
    - Apprehend: Darius hones his axe, granting him passive armor penetration. When activated, Darius sweeps up his enemies with his axe's hook and pulls them to him.
    - Noxian Guillotine (Ultimate): Darius leaps to an enemy champion and strikes a lethal blow, dealing true damage. This damage is increased for each stack of Hemorrhage on the target. If Noxian Guillotine is a killing blow, its cooldown is refreshed.

    I only see one gap closer: his ultimate. I also like the trade off on his ultimate: if he uses it early to get in range then it deals less damage than it would later in the fight (since the target has no stacks of Hemorrhage if Darius uses it to open.)

    His E also has a short range pull/spin but I'd like to think that its range will be the same as Garen's spin. Not to mention Darius also has his another spin (Q) ... two spins on one champ!

    the E is a gapcloser of some sort, and the W is a slow... and even if the E isn't long-range, many "disengages" aren't that long, they just give you a little space between you and your attacker.

    We did a 4v4 IH last night...

    Let's just say that GP, Sona, Mord, and Cass can't quite hold up to Kass, Kayle, Shen, and... Wu Kong iirc? Fun game, but seemed pretty hard to ever win.
