Nope. Unless one of your other lanes won hard and you guys have reliable CC. You can also try to delay the game if you have a decent scaling team comp.

normal game with two soraka supports and a nid adc what more could you want
mundo seems pretty slick now with the new E

That Soraka sure outplayed the enemy Soraka.
The real problem I have with division markers is how meaningless they are, particularly when the game will choose the last division someone was in rather than their highest ranking. Ultimately having the fact that someone was like...Plat 2 or Gold 3 last season is going to feel super silly even just a few months out. It's information overload.
Hold until late game or push for earlier team fights with everyone involved if you think you can win them, because assassins are usually a little weaker in head on teamfights. In certain situations the game will just slip away though.
yeah one game we were getting stomped by a champion like that but we held out and managed to push all the way through their base in one go after we managed to ace them.
i don't think anyone cares either, unless you're like d5 or something all the ranks above it don't matter that much. like, if you're plat 1 you don't wanna be plat 1, you wanna be diamond.
I don't think Newt's division has any impact on how he plays.
Lets not make it about newt here
Div 1 games can be unpleasant when you get those people who give up in Div 5 of the next tier
They should give the borders metallic wings or something or you know, since we already have gems = division designs USE THAT IN THE CORNERS??!?! RIOT PLEASE WHO THINKS ABOUT THESE THINGS

Damn, you know me too well.
just got served by Veigar hard. What was Riot thinking when they made that broken champ? Luckily it was just a normal Teambuilder match so no sweat.
Guess next time I play I'll go Ranked and pray veigar gets the ban.
I was on my Demon Vi skin as jungler but in late game he caused us major fits in team fights. got ran over

best division.
just won a ranked game against a veigar mid, was quite annoying but some things you can do that help. Merc treads help immensely with his stun duration. Having the Jungler or Support build a locket. Picking an AD mid like zed, talon, yas against him so he can't nuke you in laning phase. If his stun is down go at him, he's very weak, espically early, when he doesn't have it up(it's about a 15 sec. cd). If you're support, morg is a great pick for your team.
Did you NA peeps know about this?

30 MY COKE REWARDS POINTS = 650 RP
thats approx 5 cokes for 650 rp, so its cheaper to buy coke and get the RP than buy 650rp

Two lost games in a row, first one because the mid Kassadin was having "a bad day" and kept feeding the Yas. You'd think after the second time of trying to dive Yas you'd realise it isn't quite working, and try a more defensive strategy but hey that's silly talk. Found it funny that they started complaining about Yas just being OP when it was clear they were just being absent minded on tactics.
Second loss was due to a Thresh throwing bot lane because they were playing him first time. I'm all for experimentation of new champs, that's fine we've all been there, but at least look at a guide or he'll go play a bit match to understand the basics. He didn't even know how to actually build a Thresh, which is the easiest information you can find on the Internet.
This why I have trust issues playing ranked, just don't want to deal with idiots who aren't focused or don't want to actually work as a team. Sure it's normal that I play and it's to be expected but is it just a case of Riot not putting out clear information on champs and how they work, in the case of the second loss? Or is it just player laziness in not wanting to actually learn the champ before they play?
/rant over, now to go do some uni work.

Off to the grocery store I go tomorrow morning.
Check the ground as you walk in and out of the store. You can probably score a lid easily.

I ain't on that struggle level man. LOL. I can afford me some coca cola!
P.S Who did I just play with? Who is MmmmChowdah and LB Wolfpack?
I'd say just laziness or just sheer 'they don't give a fuck' attitude. If you're first timing a champion in a ranked match, you deserve any flame coming to you, imo. there's so many ways to try a champ, coop vs. ai, team builder, blind pick, or just a custom game. Not to mention champion spotlights for most champs.
Mmmchowdah is a gaffer
That's what you get for not playing heimerdinger
Luckily these were just normal games so it wasn't THAT big of a deal, and I'm just ranting because I can, but I just hate people's laziness when they want to try something new. Sure, go ahead and branch out, but at least look at a build guide or something.

Well yea I asked because I assumed they were both gaffers since I was with Newt and Rex.
consulting the lolgaf spreadsheet, mmchowdah is edwardo

Someone should really make a new spreadsheet to clean/reset things.

I use it to look people up before I make posts about how they don't understand the game.

Idk how people are winning with her other than her ridiculous objective control
Good call at that portrait selection, i've never actually needed to use that for any champ until now. Gonna take a bit of getting used to before i do it automatically though.
His shield feels pretty good to me since it means his health is gone. His kit is just deny setup deny and i love it. Slow a charger, scoop up an out of place/stunned teammate, prep an out of place mage/too eager assassin for some easy skillshot landing, double up your shield for someone diving you, you name it. There's a lot he can do at any one time despite his kit sounding simple on paper.
Though maybe he's more obnoxious top where he can build supertanky? it feels nice to be able to do some dmg as a support too, he really hurts, even if that damage is limited to one target and gates a lot of his utility.
I also feel like in soloq silver I don't get to make the plays with R that I could with a bit more teamwork. I feel like i should be holding vigil over dragon or sneaking in/out of the jungle. I dunno if any high elo streamers use him regularly or I'd watch those more for tips. I am kinda trying out different stuff lin addition to his standard tank build (attspeed, health regen, ect) with mixed results
