Should have skipped, sigh. Udyr took exhaust instead of Ignite for solo top, and it made me curious as to what kind of stats he usually got with exhaust. I searched him on LoLKing but slow internet is slow and it didn't load until we were on the loading screen. While on the loading screen, I saw that on average he went 3/6/6 with Udyr... with 28 farm per game, on average.
If I'd seen that in champ select I would have just skipped right away. But it was too late, and a free loss in-game, because top lost, bot lost, mid won, enemy jungle got fed.
Gotta look at the bright side though. At least now Udyr's average farm is 39. :l
^ Still stupidly low.
Was going to trade Vayne for Talon, but he afk'd during our last few picks and didn't return until the game started. I've barely touched Vayne since buying her and Cait + Taric played super aggressive, while our Xin didn't gank bot a single time, and our Talon didn't faceroll Lux like he should have. GG.

Didn't deserve to win this game, but saved by afk.
I picked Cho'gath for someone and they were going to pick me Talon, but the enemy team picked Talon... So the guy I'd picked Cho'gath for said np he'd counter Talon mid with Cho, and ended up getting owned. I went top with Olaf to counter Jax, but idk what the hell went wrong. I usually crush Jax's with Olaf, and as Jax I get crushed by Olafs, but this Jax was insanely strong. With 2 doran's blades he'd jump on me and combo me, and take off about 60% of my HP then walk away. I couldn't possibly match up his damage with Reckless Swing pokes, and after each jump he'd have me zoned out. Idk what the hell is wrong with my junglers either, but they all seem to refuse to gank my lane. I asked for a gank, then my tower went down, about 5 minutes later I died again, and I'd been asking frequently for Mao to gank already, and he said "sorry, was doing dragon. dragon > gank top". He hadn't been dragoning for 5 minutes. :l
Anyways, their Talon was pretty good I guess. He did really well and was carrying until Ali went afk. I bet it was Wrath on a smurf, dat **** always happens to him. ^^

Rengar 2 stronk.
They stole our red while Shaco was doing the blue, so Diana and Alistar decided to level 1 gank me. Back at top, I was using the brush and my passive to farm and harass Nidalee, and got her to about 50% HP, when suddenly, a wild Diana appeared! Without panicking, I ran back into the brush, and as soon as she was in range, I leaped onto her and made a run for my tower. But suddenly... Oh no! A wild Alistar flashed in! Again, without panicking, I instantly flashed to try and dodge the inevitable Pulverize. I didn't dodge it, but I was Pulverized right at my tower than right outside of its range, meaning they had to dive in deeper to keep on attacking me. Alistar didn't realize how dangerous this was though, and died to about 3 tower hits, giving me first blood as I'd ignited him. After he died, Nidalee and Diana struggled to comprehend what had just happened, while the tower switched focus to Nidalee. After 1 hit from it, Nidalee snapped out of it and tried to run out of its range, but it attacked one more time, and due to the harass I'd given her before the gank started, she died, and also gave me a kill, given how recently the harassment had happened. Diana walked away, fearful of the 2/0 Rengar. I took some HP pots and used my W a few times, and when Nidalee was back on the lane at lvl 1, I was level 3 with a large gold and XP advantage. So I snowballed and won the lane easily, and easily killed Graves in team-fights too. ( hence his stats )
I should play Rengar more often, he's so fun.

:D
Edit: Forgot to screeny the stats screen of my last game, but here it is.
Basically, I finally got paired up with a decent support. Their Blitz was alright I guess, but every time he tried to pull me I'd troll-jump out of it when it had already hit me. And me and Taric just kept bursting down Graves, to which Graves reacted by saying on all chat towards the end of the game: "Report Blitz, useless support. Trist, you have to admit we only lost bot because of him". :l No, he was playing decently, I just reacted too fast to everything Blitz tried to do. That wasn't his fault.

Oh, the throws.
Towards the end, they'd just baroned and 2 of them were pushing bot, and we saw 2 more going bot through wards, so my team went to defend while I just went to backdoor mid, which was down to its inhibitor turret. I took out the turret, killed Oriana when she tried to defend it, and then took out the inhibitor. I looked at the 4v4 going on in my base, and saw that they'd all been aced. The enemy team had pushed as far as I'd pushed mid, except that they also managed to take down a nexus tower. So much for my backdoor.
Apparently what had happened was, Rumble hadn't realized I was counting on them to distract the enemy team so I could backdoor, and initiated a fight instead of just holding the tower off. Which is ******ed, because I had enough minions tanking the towers to be able to take down the Nexus towers and Nexus myself, I only needed them to distract the enemy team for less than a minute. But no, I had to recall to 1v4 defend our own Nexus. :l

The difference in burst damage between maxing
But in mid lane, generally you'll be against a ranged caster who won't be in range for a straight-forward Q, and its cooldown will effectively be as long as your E's cooldown, because that's the only time you'll be able to use it. Whereas with
You could max Q in certain meelee match-ups though, such as Diana. It wouldn't be very effective vs Gragas though because after he gets a few levels in his barrel he can farm with just that, effectively making him ranged.
Edit: Also you have no effective way to push your lane if you don't max W, so Q max = worse roaming.
