Lucorian5's Solo Queue Adventures!

[quote=Lucorian5][center][IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/1z1fzvd.png[/IMG][/center] The games just keep getting more and more bronze; like how the fuck did they let us win with that team comp? We had [[blitzcrank]] top, LB support, post-nerf [[yasuo]] mid and an adc that was laning against a hard counter...rito pls. They shit all over us early game but were too retarded to group properly so we kept getting pick-offs of one or two people which lead to us getting a couple Barons and eventually just cheesing our way to the dumbest win I've had in a long time. Edit: Just noticed the CS in that game holy fuck...[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5][center][IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/qxnxna.png[/IMG][/center] One of the only times I've given up mid to a first pick and not lived to horribly regret it. But wow that was disgusting, a Penta Kill and two unofficial Quadras/Pentas. The rest of us enjoyed being meat shields who's entire purpose was to block damage so Kat could safely fuck up their entire team by pressing R.[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5][center][IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/vq705c.png[/IMG][/center] [[talon]] is too much fun at this MMR.[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5]5-7-13 [[talon]] loss just now, was counterpicked by a [[pantheon]] (who was terrible) but I got camped out of my fucking mind by their [[elise]], she didn't gank any other lanes at all and just ganked mid over and over and over from every possible angle. Got first blood on me when she flash + Cocoon'd me and [[pantheon]] flash + stun + ignited me. Meanwhile we had an 0-4 Mundo top and bot lane was losing slightly as well so we lost. We actually started making a huge comeback when our [[vayne]] got a cleanup Penta kill (second one I've seen today) in our base but we eventually lost when our Mundo inexplicably teleported into all five of them and basically got wrecked instantly. We actually might of won had that not happened but it was a slim chance so whatever. 44 LP now.[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5][center][IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/2zfirky.png[/IMG][/center] I don't know what the fuck there is to do anymore. My mmr is Silver II/III but it honestly feels like low bronze, the calibre is comparable to what I was playing at the beginning of last season when I was bronze III. I lose a game to an 0-7 [[zed]] who rushed attack speed boots because our butthurt faggot of a [[sivir]] was toxic as FUCK the entire game and proceeded to basically intentionally feed the entire late game which is the ONLY reason they won whatsoever. Literally he would just spawn then run top and solo push until he died, or if that didn't work he would run into their jungle by himself and farm it until someone caught him and killed him. And his duo buddy [[kha'zix]] wasn't trolling but he was a little bit toxic as well and mostly just bad as fuck. [[lux]] and [[anivia]] did pretty good and we won a 4v5 fight while they had baron at one point because we were so much better but in the end [[sivir]]'s feeding was too much. G fucking G.[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5][center][IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/302thz6.png[/IMG][/center] People who first pick [[ziggs]] because he's "OP" are my favorite.[/quote]

[quote=sirell]I first pick him because he's one of the safest laners out there. Even if you can't kill the enemy, you can stall for ridiculous amounts of time and if you can hit ultimate on the side lanes, his roam is pretty darn strong. I've first picked him twice in ranked and won both games against 'counter-pick' assassins ([[akali]] and [[zed]]). I think that [[ziggs]] was really unlucky to come across a double assassin comp, as well as a really strong dive composition. You can disengage from one, only to get the others to kill you. Plus, he neglected to go [[zhonya's hourglass]] first instead of [[rabadon's deathcap]], especially when he was clearly losing lane.[/quote]

[quote=Vapora Dark]Yeah I first pick Ziggs a lot, not because I think he's OP (though he is), it's just that he's the safest mid laner I can first pick. It's a lot less risky than first picking Talon or Swain.[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5]Meh, I know he's generally a safe pick but to someone like me who mains (mostly) all assassins he's just walking food in the lane phase since I play them better than most. The very best thing he could've done was take [[barrier]] and literally not move from his turret and just farm with Q and E. But even then I would just free farm, get fed from roaming and murder him late game lol.[/quote]

[quote=Lucorian5][center][IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/28mp9o3.png[/IMG][/center] Wellll its been a while, but here I am. Basically I didn't feel like posting since it was just a frustrating cycle of winning up to ~80 points or so then going on a loss streak down to ~15 LP and just repeating over and over and fucking over. Anyways I FINALLY got my Gold IV back after being stuck in [s]Bronze[/s] Gold V since I was placed there in late January or so when S4 started. It took a retardedly long time to get out but better late than never I suppose. At one point I had a -23 or so win rate and my MMR was like 1350, the calibre of my games felt similar to the games I was playing when I was bronze at the start of S3...needless to say I was pretty frustrated. Now I really hope I don't get demoted :S[/quote]
