I don't play ranked, so yeah, normals. There is not much to keep track of, but I pay attention to when I lose. I've played between 25-30 Sejuani games and have only lost two.

LOL. I knew I shouldn't have logged off.
They've given away ip boosts for problems like this that didn't occur during a promo ip weekend. I'd be amazed if they didn't do so here.

Which games should I look for later when watching VODs? I want interesting well executed team comps or something, only going to watch two-three games.
Teemo builds full AP, barring the Malady I guess.
Hybrid Kayle doesn't really work nearly as well as AP/ASPD. I guess you could build Nashor's -> Liandry's -> Rageblade -> Gunblade but you're basically just gimping yourself, really.
Edit: My preferred way is the full-on AP/ASPD build so Nashor's, Liandry, and Zephyr (+ Hurricane, if this game somehow went that long). I just note the higher AP route if you're against someone that will try to disengage on you and that you can't really keep up with her Q slow + W speed. Also worth mentioning, AP/ASPD Kayle still levels Q first. I'd probably get W over E still. So EQQW / EQWQ and then R>Q>W>E.

Pretty crazy first game between MYM and Dragonborns.
Dat 4 for 1 at level 1...
Dat 4 for 1 at level 1...
If I understand correctly, Rex's argument is something along the lines of at 1600 elo, almost every game has an assassin who is good enough to instantly kill the AD carry, but not many/any good support or tank players who will defend the AD carry.Can't carry in ranked with varus?
To be fair, they did have zilean support, which is awful, but there you go.
I was thinking about that this morning, and in that case I wonder if Graves, Ezreal, and Corki might still be reasonable for 1600 elo solo queue, since they each have the ability to reposition or slightly escape if dived.

Dragonborns too good.
Edit: Vi banned for game 2. Guess Shushei's found a way to make Vi work well in lane?

Rooting for Shushei's team. Love that guy.
So the formula to winning, is picking up after your derp team mates?
I have for the past 16 matches with fid, built some weak ass shit builds, and play jungle/support in order for my team to stop sucking so much ass. Building tanky and spending all of my freaking gold on wards, because they dont fucking ward their lanes. Also babysitting these fuckers because they dont understand that 1v3 is bad so I have to be there to fear/silence the enemy in order for them to get away.
You know what? It works. I'm 13 wins out of those 16 but god I hate having to play like this. I really need to get myself a group to play with.

Did she get nerfed again? Because she's still broken tier levels.

BROTHER!
Can't carry in ranked with varus?
To be fair, they did have zilean support, which is awful, but there you go.
You see in your game, there isn't anyone to instantly bite your face off. In 1500, kha zix and evelyn are instaban and there is an assassin top 90% of the time like fiora, zed, pantheon.
I was once 7/0 miss fortune full hp. I was beginning to b at tower. My support b'ed a second before me. A evelyn who was 2 levels below me with nothing but DFG and boots 1 came along and killed me within a second with DFG-ult-E-2Qs-ignite under tower. She just activated W and ran off with pretty much full hp.
That game made me rage quit playing adcs ever again. We lost that game because that eve did the same shit and noone bothered to ever protect a fed MF. I started to stand way behind fights to ult but eve just kept flashing over and chasing me down while my team was tower diving not giving a crap about actually peeling.
And you are correct.

Grinding out IP - wanna save up for a new ADC.
Any suggestions? I'm a Master Yi whore, dabbling a bit with Teemo.

2 hour wait.
2 hour wait.
Just because it says two hours doesn't mean it takes two hours.
Because it's not ASPD Overkill. Nashor's + Liandry's is all about applications done so you need more auto-attacks. A lot of your damage is with the E procs as well so, again, more swings are needed. Zephyr is ~3700g value without factoring the Tenacity. If you can guarantee a Blue Buff always on when relevant, the CDR is kind of wasted but Nashor's + Zephyr gets you to 33-34% CDR (3-4% base from Masteries, 20% from Nashor's, 10% from Zephyr).
Just to note, all that won't ASPD cap you if that's what you're getting at.
You're a terrible person.

Sounds like you should play an assassin or bruiser if you like to dive in. Maybe Olaf or Xin Zhao?
As for ADC I think scy said they're making a new ADC soon so maybe save up for that. Otherwise, I'd just try out the ADCs that show up in the free rotation.

Do you want to be a man or a polar bear.
I've dabbled in a little bit of the dark magicks of top lane Volibear. He's alright in laning but I feel like he falls off late game where he's just a walking ball of HP with a flip. Xin Zhao lanes better, can sustain in lane without a long CD passive, has a CD reducing skill in his Q, trades well against most people, and he's getting a Zhao Yun skin. Also his E can reach most ADCs but those with absurdly long range like level 18 Tristana or Caitlyn so if you're well geared you can take their ADC out of the fight for awhile if not outright kill them.
For those who have dabbled in streaming:
Which program do you use?
I downloaded XSplit, but you can't use it to stream unless you pay. There isn't even a trial period to see how well it works...
Is there a good free solution out there? I stumbled upon FFSplit, but not sure if it's reputable.
I could always try the Origin streaming (lol) or play some Onlive (ahead of it's time, too bad really).

Both Xin and Olaf are man mode champs. I prefer them to Voli tbh, Olaf especially is 'go in there and get shit done.'
Olaf might be getting mega nerfed, just so you know.

Awesome points. One thing you neglect to mention is Volibear's visual intimidation. Seeing a big tank chase you down gives most folks pause for thought.
But your Xin details all sound pretty darn reasonable. You've helped me make my choice.
And I hear Olaf might be getting nerfed? Shame.

Play around with that and I'll try to help answering any questions you have.
I can output 1080p/60FPS streams with that, but I've found a sweet spot streaming at 720p. It's free and pretty awesome.
I can't stand Garen. Just looking at him makes me angry.

Vi is also pretty solid for just charging in with her ult.

I'll try it out later, thanks! I don't think my 1Mb Upload could handle 1080p anyway, so I was planning on trying 720p from the get-go. Curse stagnant NA internet infrastructure! Google pls.

Volibear is an average laner yes, but late game he's a monster. Catch a stray off guard and more than likely he's dead. His w is percentage based so you can build health and still do dmg. Give him some atkspd and he'll rape hard. Not to mention he can peel for your adc. He's vastly underrated. If he could jungle better I would play him more.
You can use xsplit for free, you just need to use screen projection instead of the game option.

So I tried out Xin.
Here's my first game.
http://www.twitch.tv/slightlydani/b/361411116
So bad, our team quit. I chose a horrible starting item and one of summoner abilities was completely useless.
Great start. :/
