I summon stupid and this thread will cover my adventures in ranked. I'm planning to take a different approach to my journey, focusing on only playing one champion for as long as possible instead of going for a specific rank.
Skarner is what I'm going to play because:
- He's a huge purple scorpion.
- His color scheme goes well with both the blue and purple team.
- Blue buff suits him.
- Red buff too.
- I want to see how strong the Q key is on my keyboard.
- He's a huge purple scorpion.
- Trains.
- Vroooom!
As for my rank, it's currently Silver IV. I actually don't mind! Silver's nice. But I wouldn't mind climbing higher either. My current goal is Gold V - I could feel good about myself because it's better than Silver and play for fun knowing I can't drop down.
Let's go!
Match 1: Elise wasn't banned, enemy picked Elise. Shortly after the match started, Morde realised he equipped the wrong runes (support)! This got me worried.
The outcome of match 1
I have to say, this match was great.
Elise quickly became a problem, and Kha'Zix picked up a triple early on after a 3v3 skirmish at their blue. We fell behind by ~8 kills... Things were looking grim.
But somehow we won thanks to Mordekaiser's leadership and apparently, explosive growth of my balls. After getting mid T1 tower we won a teamfight with Impale on Kha'Zix and quick engage, taking T2, T3, middle Inhib and both Nexus turrets right after in one swoop. A successful Baron fight secured our victory. Basically the guy realised that as long as we engage fast before the enemy pokes at us enough, we will win TFs.
P.S: The rage chat of enemy team went on for the next 15 minutes or so, if not more. When I left the lobby, they were still at it.
That's it for now. I'll post moar when I play moar.

Good luck! I hope you play with many different builds on Skarner because he has such fun playstyles (my favorite: AP Skarner)

Meh, it was going well for us at the start even though top wasn't doing that well. In the end the enemy team was just overall more tanky, had better initiation and damage. Outpicked.
Match 3:
The outcome:
Gems.
