Sirell's Ranked Journeys

[quote=sirell][img=http://gyazo.com/a032bb49c22f1ba11ad913cd74ebfc08.png] [[Annie]] support. Pretty dominating throughout the game. Nothing much to say about the game. Sneaked a baron whilst they did Dragon, sieged mid, took turret and killed a few peeps. Took inhibitor and retreated. The enemy chased and we turned. I initiated with [[flash]] - [[summon: Tibbers]] and we killed 4 of them. Caught the last one in between Nexus turrets and aced them.[/quote]

[quote=sirell][quote=MissMaw] Should just rush DFG > void + sightstone, sorcs. I guess Mikael's was a thisgameonly purchase, though? [/quote] Yeah, if I don't need to buy utilities, I usually go full damage. But the [[Leona]] ults were fairly accurate this game. Having said that, I didn't get to use it anyway, since we rolled over them when teamfights came around. [[varus]] was pretty decent at positioning too.[/quote]

[quote=Jovy]Yeah I figured it was their team that worried ya. Well, good luck with the rest of your provisionals :) Going for gold/plat?[/quote]

[quote=sirell]Going for mid-Gold minimum with Plat in mind, given that I get good enough for it. But Gold's the minimum. If I don't get Gold or high Silver in placements, I'll probably retire from playing LoL for a bit. But since I've gotten 5 wins and 2 losses (with one as Loss Prevented), I don't think I can get below mid-Silver at least. Thank you!

But our teamfights came together with [[lee sin]] and [[renekton]] being able to kill their backline pretty easily. All I did was peel, lantern and make the occasional hook. [img=http://gyazo.com/673a3c3d6df67f9b8ab26b66c274bbb2.png] Started badly - this was one of the more difficult games where it was fairly even. Fed double kill to an [[Elise]] gank which repeated shortly after we took enemy tower. However, kicked it up around the mid game when we secured a double kill on [[jinx]] and [[nunu]]. Teamplay came together, caught [[Elise]] out whilst taking out my pink ward near Baron brush, proceeded to take Baron, they challenged, we Aced, ggwp.[/quote]

[quote=EdisonKhoo]BTW, I don't understand what's loss prevent O.o[/quote]

[quote=sirell][quote=EdisonKhoo] BTW, I don't understand what's loss prevent O.o [/quote] You won't encounter this often, since you're not on EUW, but basically it's when you are in a game whilst Riot is investigating server issues or you lose a game whilst in a period where Riot acknowledges they were having server problems. It basically counts the game as null and you receive no penalty for losing a game. [img=http://gyazo.com/acf5396ff59721511dfff90ee4214a84.png] Lost this game due to two throws in particular. [[sion]] left us when we were 4v1 with just Nexus turrets open to apparently do a free Baron. [[jinx]] single handedly raped us because [[shyvana]] and [[miss fortune]] were low hp. Second throw was when [[malphite]] ultied when no one else could follow up, i.e. I wasn't near the team just yet and [[shyvana]] didn't have her ultimate. After that, we lost all the teamfights and [[jinx]] pretty much hypercarried the rest of their team to victory. That [[miss fortune]] was horrible, though. Did literally everything wrong, managed to get ultied by [[vi]] and jumped by [[wukong]] every single time she ultied, despite my peeling for her.[/quote]

[quote=EdisonKhoo]Ok thanks. Game: zz...your team have a lot of throws..... Second throw is really...lol.... [[jinx]] gets 24/6/10 O.o lol...I guess you wrote "vi] and jumped by [[wukong " that time you are very mad at them xDDD[/quote]

[quote=sirell][quote=EdisonKhoo] zz...your team have a lot of throws..... Second throw is really...lol.... [[jinx]] gets 24/6/10 O.o lol...I guess you wrote "vi] and jumped by [[wukong " that time you are very mad at them xDDD [/quote] We didn't have a lot of throws, but we threw when it mattered the most. Wasn't really mad when I typed that, it was just a typo, it just seems like today I've had a lot of terrible ADCs to support, so it gets incredibly frustrating. 3 of them were unwilling to buy defensive items unless begged to do so. The [[graves]] legit said, 'No point buying GA, armor won't do any good at this point'. It's like they don't even know what the passive does and these are previously S3 Gold players, for fuck's sakes. It took so much convincing and pleading from the team to get him to build it. I mean not only that, but from the way MF was skilling, I don't think she knew how to play [[miss fortune]], which irritates me more, since MF was the first ADC I properly mained and got a pentakill with. She was like the fourth ADC I had to support today who was just terribad and I just had to make up for her, but even then she helps screw us over in the teamfights by being out of position. Final game of placements: [img=http://gyazo.com/223ec01f05edec258e11a3d004494f00.png] Screwed the pooch hard on this one. Both me and my premade played terribly and we just got outplayed. I died twice in laning due to [[elise]] ganks. I didn't have any particular method to stop [[nasus]] from Q stacking and when my premade came to gank top with Lee, [[elise]] was also always there and [[nasus]] scored a double kill which made it impossible to come back from. We tried again later and [[elise]] showed up AGAIN. Between [[nasus]] and [[elise]], our team literally got fucked from those two. I think the main issue here is that I picked [[irelia]]. I knew she wasn't a solid pick for countering [[nasus]], but my friend (smurfing from Platinum) said he would camp top, so I had a bit of confidence that I could just outfarm [[nasus]] after killing him every time with [[lee sin]], which would let us wreck the whole of the enemy team later. The other reason I got [[irelia]] is because my premade didn't have many top champions to use (I think the other choices were literally [[nasus]] or [[jax]] - everything else was either banned or he didn't have it). Server also lagged in the middle of the game, but a quick reconnection fixed that issue. I was equal to [[nasus]] in gold until about the second kill, then they took tower and we had died too many times to [[elise]] and [[nasus]]. My friend also had a bad game. It seems it was just a result of playing so many games and so late into the night. I'm absolutely shattered now from so many consecutive games, but my placements have me in Silver I, right back where I was at the end of last season. Oh well, guess it just means I have to climb properly again.[/quote]
