OTG's Ranked Evolution 3: Revenge of the Brobot.

[quote=OTGBionicArm][center][h3]Game 24:[/h3] [i]"Fate is a manifestation of [b]my[/b] will."[/i] [url=http://i.imgur.com/x7aghgF.png][img=http://i.imgur.com/x7aghgF.png width=500][/url] [h3]Thought Process:[/h3][/center] I got first pick so I just locked [[nasus]] again. [[Shyvana]] wasnt that scary but I rushed [[iceborn gauntlet]] and then [[Randuin's Omen]] to peel [[Akali]] and hinder [[Jinx]]. Then I bought [[Spirit Visage]] once it was clear that [[akali]] was my only true threat. Was gonna finish with [[Warmog's Armor]] and either a [[Thornmail]] or [[Ravenous Hydra]]. Maxed [[Wither]] Second, and I actually ran lifesteal quints this time because I knew [[Shyvana]] wouldn't zone me that hard. [center][h3]Game Summary:[/h3][/center] Alot of my lane was just farming. I was outfarming [[Shyvana]] early until a stray [[akali]] found her way behind me and killed me. After that I tried to freeze at my turret indefinitely. [[Akali]] was fed from first blood on [[kha'zix]] and [[Nidalee]], but [[Graves]] and [[Leona]] were doing work at bot. [[Graves]] was 8/0 in lane. However, sadly, [[Graves]] complained of lag and randomly left. This was our darkest hour... or 15 minutes or so. They got nearly all of our outer and inner towers before [[Graves]] returned. We spent this time defending and farming, and [[Nidalee]] got a few clean spear kills on [[jinx]]. Once we had our MVP came back the roles drastically changed. [[Akali]] and everyone else focused our poor beard-man, leaving me to destroy the entire enemy team. After the 6th time they did this, [[Graves]] kindly pointed out that he was no longer their main threat. By then the damage was done and we aced them and took their Nexus. [center][h3]Things I learned:[/h3][/center] Always believe. I believed the entire time that [[Graves]] would come back, even though my team wanted him reported. [center][h3]Things to work on:[/h3][/center] Got ganked by [[Akali]] cause I wasnt paying attention. Gotta be more observant. [center][h3]Questions for MOBAFire:[/h3][/center] What do you do to deal with a DC or leaver? [h3]Bonus Round:[/h3] Is it me or is the MMR backwards this season. If I remember correctly, in S3 it was highest MMR to lowest in pick order, correct? This game I was at the top but I was the only silver on my team. [[Graves]] was last and he was plat. Did this get flipped around?[/quote]

[quote=NateDog13]MMR didn't get flipped around, its still the same, inb4 plat 5 graves with crappy MMR. Anywho, you really can't deal with a DC or leaver, you either 4v5 and win by outplaying, or end up losing :x, nice job though, ALWAYS BAYLIEVE.[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm][center][h3]Game 25: Silver 1![/h3] [i]"Next time... Try to leave a dent!"[/i] [url=http://i.imgur.com/l73atua.png][img=http://i.imgur.com/l73atua.png width=500][/url] [h3]Thought Process:[/h3][/center] I did something differently this game because I noticed their team was heavy aggression and engage with [[Jarvan IV]] and [[Maokai]]. Instead of using [[Talisman of ascension]] I used [[face of the mountain]] along with my normal items. I got it just to shield [[Zed]] or [[Lucian]] from [[Akali]]. For the same reason I used [[Exhaust]]. Was finishing [[Sunfire cape]] and likely would have finished the build with [[Randuin's Omen]] and [[Banshee's veil]]. [center][h3]Game Summary:[/h3][/center] [[Zed]] got first blood and he and [[elise]] were burying mid. Meanwhile [[jax]] was outfarming [[jarvan IV]] but being greedy and dying a lot. We were losing bot because [[Alistar]] was like the master of headbutt/Pulv combos and nailed [[Lucian]] every time. Kind of a boring game though cause as soon as we grouped up we steam rolled every team fight until victory. They literally had no response to the fed [[Zed]] on their carries after my ultimate and other CC. It was just too much. [center][h3]Things I learned:[/h3][/center] [[Alistar]] is actually kind of scary to fight when your carry has a habit of getting too close. [center][h3]Things to work on:[/h3][/center] I didn't like [[face of the mountain]] and felt a severe lack of gold using it. Even when expending charges as often as possible. [center][h3]Questions for MOBAFire:[/h3][/center] I'm currently 5/0 with [[Leona]], and 4/0 with [[nasus]]. How far you think I can keep the streak going? ;p[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]All gold items seem a lot weaker than [[Talisman of Ascension]]. I'd just get [[Targon's Brace]] early on and swap it out. As for the streak, you're gonna lose next game with them. >:D[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]y u do dis lugi?[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]If I can't have a 100% winrate with my Maokai, nobody can have a 100% winrate! >:D[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]did the [[Maokai]] in that game make you sad?[/quote]

[quote=DillButt64]i have a 100% winrate with karma and lulu[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]I have a 75% win rate with Karma[/quote]

[quote=Hannul][quote=Lugignaf] If I can't have a 100% winrate with my Maokai, nobody can have a 100% winrate! >:D [/quote] It's okay lugi. win rate doesn't mean jack shit for how good you play a champ. like I had a 20% win rate on [[jinx]] and I was still above average but not good enough to be in top rankings..yet edit: 25 Sapling The Bush NA Maokai 3,259 7 3.7 3.9 10.3 50 8,721 wow some people are really shitty at maokai[/quote]
