I'm still on the fence about whether I like seeing LP during placements, but getting the good old "we'll put you 2 LP shy of 100" after a win definitely feels worse during them (I should just be grateful the losses are -0). 2-2 so far, all stomps. Pretty fun though.
Okay so @credeiki was like "play ashe, ashe is super strong right now" and I was like, yeah maybe
6 wins later..

Last night I unlocked a Lunar Revel event mission that wants me to either win a PvP match in Summoner's Rift (ARURF excluded) or get 80 K/As. Currently the idea of actually picking Blind Pick or Draft over and over until I stumble onto a team that can win stresses me out. Figuring out when to attack a minion for last hits is still a thing I am doing poorly.

I don't know if you've tried ARAM yet, but 80 k/a is 2 or 3 ARAMs, if that sounds more fun for you. You've got about 10 days to do it too, as that's the last mission in the chain.

Yeah, ARAMs (or ARURF if it's legal?) will get you there pretty quickly anyway.

His passive and his E (Toxic Shot) got swapped. He can activate E to enter Camo after 1s, and stays in it for 3-5s. Duration doesn't tick down while in a bush or standing still. W doesn't break the stealth. A little bit of damage nerf on the mushrooms, but the health on the mushrooms goes up as he ranks the ability up.... and his ammo on it increases to 3/4/5.
Also his passive's damage (the on-hit and the dot) does 50% more damage while there's another poison debuff on the target. (Q's blind counts as one, as well as shroom damage.)

This is possibly the least positive thing they can do. Let's just make Twitch/Teemo bot lanes a thing
Then I can just smash my computer in frustration and go do something more fun. Like hit myself with a hammer
In all seriousness has anyone tried the new conquerer out yet? For some champions it looks like a no brainier but I'm not sure of if it's better than existing runes.
If, if Reagan played disco He'd shoot it to shit You can't disco in Jackboots
So I just tried Conq on Kindred for fun. I'm not sure if it's better than Lethal Tempo, but the game went buttery smooth for a win. I think I had 10 marks by 15 or 20 minutes though. The other team was good, but their jungler was a brand new NuNu player and had no idea what to do.
If, if Reagan played disco He'd shoot it to shit You can't disco in Jackboots
Honestly, it does look like it's a bit of a Teemo nerf for the "full AP whoops you stepped on a mine and lost half your health" builds. Should be better for on-hit builds, though. Which is probably a good thing in the long run.
Controversial opinion:
I think he's a vastly healthier champion for the game than most of the stuff Riot has done lately. He has actual weaknesses and counter-play.

So I did this, and during one of the matches I ended up scoring an S- with Master Yi which is one of the 7 Champions I actually own. So I got my first Chest for a character I own and in it was a shard for Taliyah, who seems interesting. (Unlocking her would cost me 3780 BE so I am holding off on that.)
Played a blind pick game with vlad. Enemy top lane was a Nasus who bought an Executioner's Calling for his first item. The enemy adc did the same. Some people just don't want others to have fun playing.

Three wins in a row on Jungle Sej today; I'm comfortably out of the danger zone again. Phew. One of them had a successful baron steal -> enemy team wipe
I still feel like I maybe need a more aggressive jungler for my roster, maybe one of the good level 2 gankers. But I think that if I just try to anticipate where they'll go, and countergank (or counterward), then I can have almost as much impact early while still being this really good tank lategame. I generally prefer playing tankier champs anyway (unless I'm playing Support), so I'm not sure I want to play an assassin-type.
Are there any recommendations for more aggressive/better 1v1 junglers that can still build tanky for mid/late game, with some CC? Or am I literally describing an unobtanium unicorn here? Help me out, haha.
Edit: maybe it's Dr. Mundo's time to rise again, I love that guy

Xin, Gragas, and Jarvan IV all come to mind if those fit your bill. Shyvana's not usually put into that category, but I would. Warwick and Volibear are better duelists than people give credit, and Vi's getting a gameplay update soon probably.

I don't know what it is, but Volibear jungle gives me the most trouble. You literally can't stop him it feels.

My flex queue elo is super super low--at least a full division lower than my solo q and normals elo--and I've been getting these just completely baffling supports. Couple games back I got a Thresh who couldn't hit a hook, but actually he realized it, started crying in chat that he was awful at Thresh and couldn't do anything, and then afk'ed out of sadness. No one said a word to him or pinged him--he just actually got so upset at his own inting/not hitting any skillshots that he gave up. It was pretty sad to watch...
Since flex isn't positional ranked, I might play some mid to get out of this pit. Or play Draven, or something...I can really feel the difference in the way people play and I don't like it at all.

The way my Lucian saved my little pajama-ed butt made me do a pogchamp face IRL. https://clips.twitch.tv/GentleWanderingCheddarCeilingCat
This was a really great team, the kind that makes you wish you can re queue with all 4 again.
Well, I won an ARURF for that penultimate mission so now I don't have to touch that mode again (at least until the next time they require it for missions).
