drakon136's Ranked Journey to Gold (and beyond?)

[quote=drakon136]Hey everyone, drakon136 here. I'm going to be chronicling my journey to Gold (and hopefully beyond) here in this thread. I've been playing on and off since early January this year, but I play a lot more now since I've quit Dota. I'll post screenshots of the match results here when I can remember to. Current Division: Silver III, 20 LP Champion Roster (in order of preference) Top: Gangplank, Sion, Fiddlesticks, Vayne, Garen Mid: Kha'Zix, Kassadin, Pantheon, Morgana Jungle: Rammus, Dr. Mundo, Cho'Gath, Fiddlesticks Support: Thresh, Blitzcrank, Fiddlesticks, Gangplank ADC: Avoided at all costs; Vayne or Ashe when forced[/quote]

First pick called mid, third pick called Singed top, I called jungle. Enemy team took Nunu as their second pick, so I decided to support instead. In the game, Singed gave Elise a leash by himself and got behind because of it. He left pretty quickly though, nearly getting Elise killed and forcing her to go back once she cleared it; Nunu stole red in this time and just shut her down completely. Singed lost lane to Riven early on, giving her first, third, and fourth bloods. Gragas lost to Kassadin thanks to constant Nunu ganks (which Elise couldn't stop, due to being far behind). We ended up losing bot to Caitlyn and Taric, although we did kill them a couple times. I know I could've done much better. Landed a couple good Crowstorms, missed one really badly, completely forgot to get my gp10 items. At about 7:00 and onwards, our team was bickering nonstop. Gragas yelling at Singed for losing lane to Riven, Gragas yelling at Elise for not ganking, Singed defending himself and Elise, Gragas yelling at Singed some more. All in all, it was a pretty bad game.[/quote]

I was first pick, banned Hecarim, Nunu, and Sejuani. Defeyer was second pick, called ADC, but gave it to JiggleMyJag after Leslie insisted enough. I picked up a smiteless+leashless blue, then went to steal their red. I fucked up majorly, and stayed after Zac spotted me, ending in first blood and blue buff for Veigar. He just kinda snowballed out of control from there. Vladimir was whining at me for not banning Zac or Draven, saying he would've been an infinitely better ADC, just being an arrogant prick in general. This game was just really bad. Anyways, I lost twice in a row. Done in ranked for today.[/quote]
