Cyclopes8's Season 3 Ranked Climb

[quote=Jpikachu1999]Everyone else seems to have made one of these, so I figured I might as well make one. Quick list of my preferred champions: Top: [[Lee Sin]], [[Jarvan IV]], [[Kha'zix]], [[Zed]] Mid: [[Lux]], [[Leblanc]], [[Kassadin]], [[Orianna]] Jungle: [[Amumu]], [[Hecarim]], [[Jarvan IV]], [[Malphite]], [[Lee Sin]], [[Nocturne]], [[Xin Zhao]] ADC: [[Draven]], [[Tristana]], [[Ezreal]], [[Miss Fortune]] Support: [[Taric]], [[Sona]], [[Blitzcrank]], [[Janna]] ----------------------------- [center][h1][color=#00ffff]Game 1[/color][/h1] [IMG]http://i1257.photobucket.com/albums/ii519/jpikachu1999/Cyclopes8%20Season%203%20Ranked/Cyclopes8RankedJourney-00001_zps5d65a160.jpg[/IMG][/center] Tristana + Enemy team having no focus + Enemy team built stupid items = win. We were losing most of the game, and they even stole baron once because Nocturne forgot to [[Smite]] it >_> Eventually, I would just have Taric and Jayce go for me, while the rest of the enemy team went for Fiddle and Nocturne. I guess it also helped that Lux never hit me with her ultimate, and it wouldn't have killed me with her build anyways. Pretty easy win that qualifies me for my series![/quote]

[quote=Pheyniex]i doubt you will be able to play LB effectivelly in ranked when your jusngle doesn't know he has to gank morde early or the carry likes to seige midlane alone. [[Leblanc]] can't carry such shit.[/quote]

[[Leblanc]] can't carry such shit. [/quote] Actually, she can. I played a LB game where I had 3 kills, bought a [[Mejai's Soulstealer]], and the rest of my team fed. I carried them for 35 minutes, getting 20 stacks, and ended up with a ton of kills. It's super easy as LB to assassinate ADC in teamfights if you are good at positioning. Plus, it's not like their team is going to be *that* much better than mine. Although, I do see your point. I've had a couple games where it didn't work so well, but generally it works for me. EDIT: Just saw you were talking about a Morde mid. LB wrecks Morde mid. I agree, you will be behind on CS, but it is incredibly easy to burst Morde, simply since you can achieve a 3.5 second stun with almost no effort. Also, [[Sigil of Silence]] > [[Distortion]] is really strong by level 9, easy to zone Morde out. He can't get close to you to use his spells without being silenced.[/quote]

[quote=Nighthawk]Why buy Soulstealer?[/quote]

[quote=Jpikachu1999][quote=Nighthawk] Why buy Soulstealer? [/quote] Because I knew I was good enough to keep it, and 850+ AP with a final build allowed me to 100-0 their ADC and APC every time guaranteed?[/quote]

[/quote] from pretty much everyone I know who plays LB, I've heard Soulstealer sucks and that Dcap/DFG is better. That includes Suffix, who could keep 20 stacks with his hands tied behind his back :P not trying to be offensive, because I imagine it works, but in that time you got taking 20 kills, what if you already had a Dcap? What if you get cocky and die once, and then you can't judge your burst right anymore because you just lost 60 AP? just saiyan[/quote]

[/quote] talking about morde was something very generalistic, but any decent player will avoid trading with an LB and will afk farm as far as possible. when i jungle, if there is a morder i gank him 24/7 until he refuses to show his face. and then you win the game. either way, assassination requires opportunity and that is the uncertainty i really don't want to play with, as LB in ranked. GL on your games. I'd be happy to see some LB, indeed. [quote=Nighthawk] from pretty much everyone I know who plays LB, I've heard Soulstealer sucks and that Dcap/DFG is better.
