Sirell's Ranked Journeys

Anyway, this game was a bit annoying. I was supposed to trade with the [[elise]] so I could jungle, but she didn't accept my trade offer (for an unspecified reason) and didn't take [[smite]] either, so I went [[fizz]] jungle. Bit of a shaky start with top lane getting ganked repeatedly by [[nunu]]. [[elise]] lost lane HARD to [[orianna]] and let her freely roam, particularly top. That said, she never really went bot, unlike me. Bot lane was about even, but after 2 ganks on bot and 2 double kills, [[tristana]] got REALLY strong. Came out 4-for-3 loss in a teamfight due to a stupid chase and despite me pinging and typing '[[orianna]]'s back'. Not too long after that, we sneaked a Baron, because they were just farming midlane and had 0 Baron vision and [[fizz]] + [[elise]] + [[blade of the ruined king]] [[tristana]] = Baron in seconds. By the time they came, we already set up a trap. Shark hit [[thresh]] and he died quickly after that. The enemy retreated to their base and [[elise]] made a successful [[cocoon]] onto [[orianna]] which let us burst her down. With her out of the picture, we killed everyone else bar [[nunu]] and they surrendered.[/quote]

[quote=sirell][img=http://gyazo.com/69225c00af231d86584566c96a83040f.png] First ranked game of the season. Was doing teams with Falseo and filled the role of jungle. Wasn't too confident on playing [[elise]], so I locked in [[vi]], since she's so straightforward. Lagged a bit at the beginning, which left me hesitant to gank, with good reason - when I DID gank, I lagged in the middle of a Q and died. Lost an inhib at 25 minutes, but won it back with multiple good catches and eventually an inhib of our own, along with Baron.[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod]Dem [[vi]] ults Also they eventually learned why I placed my [[swain]] in front of [[blitzcrank]] :>[/quote]

[quote=sirell][quote=EdisonKhoo] Seems like everything is going all well :D [/quote] Well, I haven't tried playing my placements or ranked and internet has been a bitch lately. Before the reset, I tried two games and both times I lost because my internet died, despite early leads. Then I played a string of purely troll games to just take a break from the ranked mindset. I come back home today and False invites me to a team ranked. I might be able to do my placements next week, we'll see.[/quote]

[quote=sirell][quote=FalseoGod] Dem [[vi]] ults Also they eventually learned why I placed my [[swain]] in front of [[blitzcrank]] :> [/quote] Definitely failed at least 3 ults. I was quite pleasantly surprised that you kept getting grabbed. Would have thought they learned after the 2nd-3rd disastrous time that happened.[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod]In your defense, I did a solo q ranked as [[sejuani]] versus a season 3 Plat Vi and she ulted me exactly 7 times the entire game with priority targets by my side (including [[katarina]] and [[lucian]]). So yah, get your plat.[/quote]

[quote=sirell]Two were failed because [[sivir]] had spellshield both times and I resulted in dying from both. The third was when I ultied under their midlane tower while we were disengaging. I thought we were going all-in, so I had a communication issue. [img=http://gyazo.com/11d17522070956981a489153f1eb2808.png] I keep forgetting to take screenshots of ranked end-games. One was an [[Elise]] game after I got the confidence enough to play it. Turns out Vyn was right and it was quite broken. Our botlane lost a little bit, but since it was a [[vayne]], we just had her turtle through the laning phase and ganked after she got level 6-9 and all was dandy. End score was something like 24/7. Next game was just silly. [[zed]] fed 7 kills to [[kha'zix]] before laning even ended. [[kha'zix]] consequently raped our entire team due to being 3 levels and 2 items ahead of everyone. Had my hands full just with the [[vladimir]] (killed him twice and died once to a gank) and when [[kha'zix]] started roaming, he got another 7 kills. He ended the game something like 18 kills. Can't remember. Luckily, loss prevented.[/quote]

[quote=sirell][img=http://gyazo.com/e9b3e8de33d3836282fe756c76d46865.png] [[rengar]] DCed after feeding and [[riven]]/[[kassadin]] pretty much snowballed from that. 7/8 of the kills on our team came from me and my premade.[/quote]

[quote=sirell][img=http://gyazo.com/bce5a06c6dbf1d15bda7d5029d5e10c6.png] This game was 10x harder than it should have been and we could have ended it at least 20 minutes earlier, if not more. The game started on an extremely sour note when [[graves]] stole Blue buff from my pre-made and then proceeded to transfer it to the enemy [[thresh]] for First Blood. This aura of retardation followed through the laning phase as [[graves]] continued to do stupid things, going 0/3 in 10 minutes. Good thing from this was that I was able to clean up on his messes and go 5/0 in laning. Eventually, he was able to stop being caught by [[thresh]] and [[jarvan IV]] and he secured a few kills here and there. The teamfights came together and we won most of them. We could have won after the first Baron, but apparently, going 4v2 is a bad idea. Won at the third baron about 20 minutes later.[/quote]
