Played Jungle Nauti, and had an amazing early game. Then our top lane kept going afk to "take bong hitz", died 15 times and helped snowball 2 enemy lanes. Fucking stoners.
He is. I expect him to be nerfed soonish.

Yi is so good right now.
Much better than how he was before. Every game I see him in he just dominates.

Good memories of the dunkmaster jungle video with the stone bros.
Of course this victory didn't count since it was blind pick and we had 5 smite and we were wandering lanes and the yi was just randomly going wherever, only rarely showing up to teamfights, but even so the damage people would take was almost comical:
I lost 2/3 of the games I tried him in, but I'm not a good player. I got a quadra in the game that I won though. I think he is quite strong for people who know what they're doing.

There are some who would try to make Yi look bad intentionally.
Members of the AP Yi clan that fell into disrepair is my guess.

Hey, the Korean competitive meta is months ahead of everyone else still, right?
I took another one.
Unfortunately this also doesn't count since this they didn't have a jungler until one of their duo top moved to the jungle several minutes in. I think the first death I was chasing a quadra and died in alpha strike when the fourth kill was about to happen.
My ultimate strategic conclusion on that build is that zeal may once have been better, though. At some point slightly after finishing those items, you discover you really want some more AS or AD.

i am posting too many games now but i played against star of stage and screen ciderhelm.
probably, but regions are too segregated to tell right now.
The beta was hella boring, corgi.
Can you pick better games to invite me to?
Maybe. I find it weird that everybody refuses to play the same game as cloud 9
Their play seems very KR influenced

I don't know about broken but he's really, really good on SR and on TT, he is definitely broken.
That would be brilliant.

I've played Yi a few times and he does seem to get a pretty decent power spike if you have any sort of farm. He's really squishy though. Much more than AP Yi because you can't just pop a 300ap meditate anymore. I haven't done amazing. The best games I had wasn't because Master Yi but because I was jungling well.
I think people just forgot how to play against him.

As long as the recommended champions aren't all the 450 IP ones.
Poppy shouldn't be played by anyone let alone beginners.

Will definitely pick up lil slugger trundle for the trophy ganks.

Welp... first time jungle Diana. Built more as an initiator/peeler since Brand and Cait were doing mighty fine when left alone. My Qs were pretty much forcing Flashes. I was building toward Randuin then gonna top it off with Gauntlet for dat stickiness. I don't know if I want Zyra or Diana anymore. Diana has amazing sustain in the jungle, but doesn't have very good ganks until 6.
Actually, Riot wished they went with Battlecast Urgot as default skin, since the latter turns off a lot of players.edit: I think battlecast urgot looks cool why does everyone hate it
Thanks. I'll be free to play on Wednesday. I'm busy until tomorrow sadly. Duo-queue Wednesday night?
I don't actually want to duo. Normals would be nice though.

To be honest, Kitty Knife got so fed I don't even remember you played kogmaw until you mention it now.
I'm pretty sure I afk'd that game.
Edit: Also, kiunch, you should watch this totally Korean video. It's about playing mid! Rapidstar even demos a game as Ahri!
Edit2: Actually, everyone should because that video is crazy. All the summer lesson videos are crazy. In a korean way.

K. We can do that.

Can Fizz be tanky enough to be played as a top laner?
Edit: I always just spam pings to tell my teammates I'm engaging. I almost wish League had voice chat at times, but it would probably be TERRIBLE most of the time.

It would definitely be useful, but unfortunately on Dota 2 people use it to flame their teammates more often than not. I'm assuming it's the same way in HoN. It'll unfortunately most likely translate to the same thing in League.

At least with no voice chat I get to pretend that these people aren't actually real. I can't imagine actually hearing the words that people say when you pick the role they wanted in champ select come out of someone's mouth.
Haha yea, champ select would be pure chaos.

Got my placement matches done. 3 wins and 7 loses lol. Had some god awful games. Ended up bronze 2. I was expecting worse to be honest.
Ouch
At least you have room to climb now. Bronze 2 is a little better than I'd expect with 3/7. Must have had some more challenging opponents.Keep at it and carry hard.

One match I noticed my entire team was about 1-3 wins. 4 of opposing were over 200 wins.
Most games had morons like so often in normals. I kept ok stats in the games lost but I dunno if that factors.
lots of wins don't really mean anything. if anything it would be disparaging that people have so many games but haven't moved up.

But in your initial positioning matches who are you playing against?
low level players? people with similarly estimated mmrs?
Posted in the LCS thread, figured I'd post here as well:
World Championship schedule: http://na.lolesports.com/season3/split2/articles/world-championship-tickets-available-aug-15
Dat group stage, 40 games over one week. Looks like it will be OGN style, with each team playing the other in a BO2 set.
Anyone from GAF going? I could be into splitting a room with someone. I'll probably be going as press, so maybe I could give you some backstage access

I would have thought it was over various levels others how can it place you accurately?
Essentially, the placements take your existing MMR and just gives a greater-than-normal K-value for adjustment. Basically, you play against similarly skilled people still but the gains are higher.
