If you're a good supp, you really shouldn't be too far from your adc's gold count. Especially as someone like Morg.

Well 0/7/8 is a pretty horrible score. Then again, their team got no objectives which hurts the support the most.
the magic of 4v5s, hard to go ward shit when there's a fed veigar one shotting people
i did more damage than yasuo and contributed to more kills, we also destroyed their bot lane (which was the expected given the matchup) so i'm not unhappy with what i did
i probably should've skipped the chalice to get dfg earlier. that's it

I miss when Eve was so bad that you actually needed Ignite to jungle - Ignite worked on monsters.
Fun times

not really
I would play on a team if one were available -- I only have like 3 points towards the FIRST ward. The only active team I knew of filled up and got the ward though, and I was too low skill to join.
At least it only took 5 or so minutes for my ranked game to start after it froze in the lobby.

Loss prevention isn't on, is it? I got back to silver I for a second time, and my win rate is slightly over 50%, yet I got 11 LP for the first win after ranking up. I was getting 20 LP for wins recently, or so I thought. The main thing I like about the new ranked system is that it DOESN'T seem to usually go down to roughly 11 LP per game, and I am hoping that sort of thing does not start showing up for me.
I like scores like this that show how teamwork can pay off:
Equal kills, equal deaths, but the assists are a little different. Talon in particular started something like, 1 kill, 9 deaths (after assuring us that even though it's Talon, and even though he's 0-2 ranked with Talon, he plays Talon in normals and Talon is easy or whatever). To be fair, at least he was apologetic after he started dying so much.
Meanwhile, I was pretty much even top, then got owned twice when the other team sent 4 people (I escaped but they took 2 towers) and then 3 people (I died).
The other team was grouping to take towers. It was crazy to see a group working together. Then, weirdly, OUR team started grouping instead, to win fights. One fight, we took one or two inhib towers, and two inhibs. Then we all sat in the tiny bush outside baron. Big risk of Leona having it warded and ulting us or whatever, but instead, Kha'zix tried to facecheck the bush and we killed their team.
They instantly surrendered (we had super minions walking to their nexus towers after that fight anyway). It warmed my cold, brittle heart.

Everything is awful.
I have played 8 games since Tuesday.
In none of those 8 games did I have a support that was helpful.
I have never been closer to feeling like I want to quit than right now.

The amount of supports who believe the ADC will carry them while they gear themselves full AP is too often for my taste.

3v3s
Herding fucking cats. Took a lot of guidance, pings, and telling panth to stop being abusive... but we did it. Even with disconnects (other team didn't seem to have a bad of a problem with them). Almost lost even though the huge gold lead because people wouldn't go after objectives after kill... and both zed, wukong and kha on the otehr team exploited it by split pushing.

Man.... I bet a wrote a novel in chat. Fuck might be done for the night... I worked way too hard for that one seeing how we were almost 8k ahead at one point and losing.

These nightly server crashes are getting on my nerves. What do I have to do to get a night of lag free gaming around this piece?
If he was a 3v3 Challenger it's like...eh. Each mode has its own MMR though.
Off and on... think it's "up" right now.
Good enough for me.
Well.. not really but I cant fall back asleep after a 5 hour nap anyways

Oh my Irelia can destroy that pesky Woukong....you deserve a skin Irelia.
I get frustrated when my supports build it. Attack speed isn't something you need from your support.

nope 5v5 solo challenger
Its not the worst thing in the world. I'd rather see that than your typical 'support' building pure AP for late game heroics.

Sona can make a good use of that item since she can buff the entire team with attack speed with one single W.
The path for an ADC is not an easy one.

Because they all quit after getting ganked for the 20th time when their support fails them.
How often do you really need your entire team's attack speed buffed? It's a situational item that has egregious stat overlap with higher priority support items. Do you really want your mana regen to come from AC? Do you want your CDR to come from it? Ardent Censer is terrible from a stat value perspective, and while it's all nice and dandy to think your Jinx could use an extra 25% attack speed I'm sure they would rather have you providing them with more defensive stats so they don't get blown up.
And then there's the the aspect of investing in items that don't provide tanky stats. The majority of Sona's contribution to a fight lies just on getting an ult off, but if the support just gets blown up their team is left at a severe disadvantage.
If this is my team comp I probably already lost.
Heh, it's not too unlikely at lower elos!
I played a couple Vi games today and yesterday and completely dominated. Haven't played her in a long long time, and back then I was absolutely trash on her. Maybe I just reached a certain threshold of general skill where I became good on her since she isn't exactly a mechanically difficult champ. Having fun with it though!
