i appear to be rubbing off on people.
Well, I do win more than I lose. I don't really care if you want to lump in numbers from a few months ago, because that's totally irrelevant to today, but whatever.
Is it ever worth building BOTRK on Fiora? I've seen a few times when people start building huge amounts HP, like Frozen Mallet, and with only the occasional crit it takes a long time to damage through that even with armor penetration.
I wasn't sure if the BOTRK could help for the HP damage.

I don't think it would be as good as her core of Hydra/Youmuu's/Last Whisper/Bloodthirster/Boots with either a Black Cleaver or Guardian Angel.
If you win more than you lose why are you complaining about your team? You "consistently" show you're better and carry, according to you. With that "70% win rate" by your side it's only a matter of time before you get out of Bronze and get to Silver. If you got the statistics by your side, you will come out ahead.
Congrats dude

That TF name.
Basically the point is you're not going to get much pity around here for not being able to carry bad teammates. If you consistently play significantly better than everyone around you, you will climb. That's the system. Many around here started out in bronze too, so we have been where you are. Ultimately, self-evaluation is the key to climbing.

elo hell exists only in your mind
you're not as good as you think you are
thats ok
just focus on improving and less on your teammates and youll get out in no time
this is true of like every game

now get that d1 seigo. 
Oh, I know. I'm climbing now. I sort of told my story here a few times. I was silver 3 (in promos for silver 2) not all that long ago and then I started playing support and got my MMR all upside down. Even when I started winning more than losing, I was getting like 7 LP per win and losing LP in the 20s for a long time, but managed to win at a rate to keep myself from dropping below Bronze 2 until my LP shifted to 20s for a win, about 14 per loss.
I'm fine now. I don't know how we got here when I was just asking about the Annie/Tibbers thing. When I said it was dumb, I meant it. It was dumb how people kept rushing into it. Then people started piling on like I was saying it was impossible to carry. Well, yes, in THAT instance it's impossible to carry. I wasn't talking about overall. But you have to admit that certain instances are impossible to carry your team, like if you have AFK teammates or rage quitters. Like, there's nothing you can do.
That's all I was saying. I didn't mean it in a more general sense.
As someone who's also in bronze (granted, I haven't played ranked in a while now, but still): fuck your teammates. This is the lowest skill bracket there is, everyone sucks at everything. If you honestly believe you don't belong in bronze and that your teammates are garbage, take the role you want as soon as you can pick and hard carry every game. Obviously don't be toxic about it, but if you want to win in the lowest of low elos, take your best role and champ and run with it.

after going 15/2/12 on Ashe, getting 2 triple kills and 1 quadra kill, I've concluded that I just can't play her very much.
I ended with only 178cs in 37 minutes in large part because cs'ing with her bored me to fucking tears. I just didn't have the enthusiasm to hit creeps with her. I love the setup her ult provides teams with low initiation potential, though. I hit all but 2 ults and they all mattered. I also really like how her Q's slow means you pretty much have to fight her if you let yourself get in range. I'll continue to play her sparingly, I think.

she's definitely no
i use lizzy myself for that
like targetted 1.5s stun plus you can stack another 1.5s with w, dude can't do anything
i also like her specially cos you can go zhonyas a part of your buildpath and get tankier against him or just dfg first if you're blowing him up before he's even a factor
try maybe varus?
his kit is really fun and similar to ashe's in utility plus his auto animation is fucking delicious

i am 300 ip away from fiora... or quinn....or jayce
in 300 ip, one of them will be mine (unless rito announce a new champ before then)
From now on I'm going to start looking for advice for every shitty game I have, that was one of the most infuriating games I ever played, this shit is why I play this game in spells.
I was Caitlyn with Lulu against Morgana and Vayne, I just had no idea what to do, usual pokiness was countered by Morg stun+Vayne rolling in, I felt completely locked out. What am I meant to do in this situation?

Don't get hit by Morgana's bind.

won the dumbest game lol
they had double smite but we had nunu and karthus. but they did the dumbest base stay ever and let us near ace them until only soraka was left. oh well, back in s2.

That seemed much easier said than done, if I wanted to get anywhere near close just to last hit that thing was coming at me and there was never enough time to get out of the way. The least I guess I could hide behind minions?

cs behind minions and ward brush. i never see anyone do the latter despite playing against champs like thresh/blitz/morg.
any morg lane is a really hard lane but you have to do the usual, stay behind minions to get cover from morg snare and don't get too close to walls so you don't get condemned by vayne
other than that you had a good 2v2 against theirs, like tons of poke against vayne is what you want (what do u mean countered? just hit your passive crits on her when she tries to cs), just don't get hit by the bind. have good brush control with traps and trinket and watch out when morg walks towards you to get the point-blank snare as that usually means you're getting ganked
like seriously
dodge the fucking snare
edit: stay behind minions and watch out when they die, don't be silly and get caught. she's prolly gonna go for lulu more than you as lulu is gonna be dancing around in the brushes. that's up to lulu and not much you can do, she should be smart and ward enemy brush and just move around a lot and be difficult to hit.
now when morg misses her bind go ham and seriously shit on them, specially on vayne. there's like literally nothing morgana can do now, you have 650 range plus a 1150 range q, lulu speed up and shield, everything. just chunk her real bad and keep farming. focus vayne cos she's not gonna have as many pots or defensive rune/masteries and morgana's useless for her right now. you might get chunked a bit too but you have lulu for shields so next time vayne wants to cs you shoot her and now she's really low and can't afford to while whatever damage you received was blocked by lulu shield
if vayne backs you should also back and get like another dorans+longsword or something. get a couple health pots. like seriously abuse her shitty range
Catitlyn can poke through minions, Morgana can't. Vayne has a terrible early matchup with Caitlyn if she gets harassed, so Morgana is going to know going in she needs to push Cait really hard to allow Vayne to scale. So you know Morg is going to go aggro and you can plan to ward the side bushes, keep behind minions, and generally worry more about Morgana than Vayne (who basically can't harass you even if she wanted to).
What did Lulu do?

she's definitely no, who is by all accounts awesome. But I get numbers very similar to her. Maybe they're cousins. :3
RIP Sylvannas?
Sylvannas is the true queen. She can turn me undead any time.
Ward coverage in lane bushes can go a long way.

Just played a quick game as zac. All my lanes crushed so they surrendered early and I didnt have much of a chance to get going, so tbh I don't have any real feelings on new golem right now.
yes, i did watch that game.
you got your two kills early only because garen towerdived you twice. you weren't really winning lane on personal merit. even then you traded deaths and then went on to die roughly as much as the rest of your team.
