    I am going to end this season with 18 lp in Silver 2 it seems.

    I mean, I've been pretty busy and I suppose my Masters is slightly more important than fancy Sivir(especially since I somehow have two Sivir skins already).

    Still a little disappointing.

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    Win 3 in a row and make it to promos. Win 2 games. Throw 1 game. Fail miserably in three more. Feels bad dude.

    OK, just got done with game 3 of 10 where I was asked to go mid because we had a duo queue in bot lane. I picked Brand... cause hey, I always do well with him in ARAM.

    Zed crushed me in lane in terms of last hitting and all that. Ended the game 90cs behind him. I got lane ganked at 6 by the double zed + nautilus ult gang bang.

    Hey so I just realised, with the new queue, duos (or more) can always get exactly the roles they want.

    Let's say I want mid and Bob wants support, we both say we want mid and support and if we get the wrong ones we can just swap.

    My entire team got decimated by enemy Yasuo, who apparently has just 13 won games in Team Builder.

    Went on a tear in the jungle to get to my promos.

    Played the first game of my series as Kalista because I got trolled out of my preferred role. Thank god ADC is my 2nd strongest role but it's not easy making calls from that position. Fortunately I had a very competent support and we managed the tempo of the game very well. Long 40+ minute victory where we gave up 5 dragons but I managed to drag my team kicking and screaming to every damn baron spawn. It was a fun match but mentally taxing.

    Now I just don't want to play anymore this weekend and FO4 comes out next week so chances are I'll forget about League and that'll be that because I'm dumb. Oh well.

    It sometimes feels like the internal Riot echo chamber had developed to the point where "League of Legends is bigger than the Gregorian calendar" is a sentiment you can believe they'd express.

    I won my next game (as Morg) to go 3-0 in promotion and reach Silver for the first time. Huzzah!

    We had an all lady comp - Fiora top, Sej jungle, LB mid, Morg and Jinx bot. We had fun in champ select when we realized we had four women, and then Jinx was last pick and we all celebrated.

    Edit: I just went back and I've won 16 of my last 17 games as Morgana. In that span I'm 2-7 with other characters, haha.

    If I could restrict myself to playing my top characters.... but no, every now and again i'll decide to run jinx because everyone else mangles with her... or run urgot...

    Morg makes vision control so easy, because you can invade enemy jungle so safely if most enemies are on minimap in lane. You can just use black shield and binding to escape almost any 1v1.

    Also it's hilarious shutting down jungle ganks with proper vision and one bind as they try to get into lane.

    Also also in the last two days I've made two sick predicted binds - I landed them on an Ezreal and a Kass who tried to blink to dodge them. I was super hype, even if neither amounted to anything.

    I remember that Ez one (if that's what you're referring to). That was a pretty good game overall.

    I was a little taken aback when our whole team was ready to towerdive them early; I can't remember another time I've had something like that so early in the game.

    So Heroes of the Storm has made a twin headed-ogre character, Cho'Gall, and it takes two players to control him.

    I wonder if Riot is daring enough to follow suit.

    Sounds lovely. Nothing is more fun than having a barrier between you and the driver of a vehicle that is speeding down a highway into oncoming traffic. All you can do as the passenger is flail your arms wildly to tell the other drivers to get outta the way!

    Rework Nunu. One player controls Willump, the other Nunu. Now he is a single bottom lane champion.

    I forgot you were in that one. Wasn't that the game where we had like every top and mid roam/tp bot at like 7 minutes, haha?

    Sure, Willump has all his supporty powers, Nunu could still have his snowball, but we'd have to give them something more, like Curse of the Sad Mummy hard cc and maybe an execute.

    Of course, Nunu's powers would be a little short shafted. Maybe we could give Willump a blink.

    Edit:

    Maybe we can make Nunu into a Gnar-style transform champ. Keep the health and mana regen of course, and add the powers above.

    Totes a fun character.

    Edit Edit:

    There is no way that Riot puts in a 2 player control character. I mean, look how long it took them to put in Thresh's lantern, Kalista's R. T'ahm Kench is an absolute radical experiment at Riot.

    I think that Riot would first make an Invoker-styled dude.

    Haha, yeah. It will be hilariously fun, but I would question balancing issues due to very few people taking it seriously. I would imagine the trade-off for changing from two champions to one would have to be either greater movespeed or greater damage...maybe even both. Then it boils down to how broken the pros can push the limits versus how bad it performs all the way down to the SaltyTeemo levels of gameplay.
    But, as I said...hilariously fun.

    Play her on Dominion and enjoy. Right now on dom the most easily fielded (team / comp independent) marksmen are Ezreal, Jayce, and Kindred. We'll see how S6 changes things up though.

    Personally I'm looking forward to Graves, MF, and Quinn and seeing if they are playable on Dom.
