My LP is like a stock market graph.
After my bad few days, at least I started playing a bit better again and won like 5 ranked in a row, so I think I still have time to get up towards one, maybe more, promotion series attempts for gold.
This game was an example of how despite weird composition or feeding players, you can win:
People weren't sure what to pick, someone got kat to trade as panic against a team with lots of CC since they were going to trade but didn't know what to pick, and someone else ended up trading for kat so there was all sorts of stuff going on. Then we noticed bot lane (apparently a duo from college somewhere, one of whom was on the phone for like 6 deaths) didn't have an adc. They got first blood, but I didn't want to tower dive and they tower dove individually to give Tristana 2 kills. It only got worse from there. I showed up one or two more times, one time dying near the tower. So then I gave up on them and hopefully tried to focus mid and top lanes more, who were doing better.
Kat and Zac traded lanes and started doing better, and everything worked out, since once we started getting towers and since people were willing to move as a group instead of raging, our teamfights worked out well and I think the other team surrendered before we even really got into their base.
(garath, I know going for locket would probably be the generally better approach, but in this case since their damage was almost 100% AD, I liked the idea of the HP and armor of sunfire cape)
