Status: Bronze V - Position 8 / 64LP

Ban&Pick
I decided to offer my service as support and took Annie. The adc took Graves and we had Rengar in the jungle, Zed in mid and Nidalee in top.
The opponents chose Shen, Jax, Zyra, Jinx and Blitzcrank.

The Game
We had a hard start. The Rocketgrab from Blitzcrank got me more then once. In the first events I had my passive ready to stun him and escape. Our team did not really team up in midgame but the others did, so we where ganked and killed a lot.
I was caught when placing wards. 4 Members of the opponent sat in a brush just to kill me.
Flaming me started right on. Nobody saw all my warding and stunning and preparing the last hits.
It took a lot of time until my team started playing together but it seemed to late.
Luckily we could resist long enough until a member of our opponents went afk.
So we played a little bit longer and until our enemy surrendered.

5.7 Patch Notes: Items

5.7 Patch Notes: Gift of the Toadstool

Decided to revist the numbers on this in light of the changes Riot made to Enchantment: Cinderhulk and Gift of the Toadstool in Patch 5.7.

Status: Bronze V - Position 16 / 40LP

Maybe I'm a jungle tank.

Ban&Pick
I got the slot 1 and could ban all my bad foes like Katarina and Fizz.
I took my favourite jungle tank Nautilus and we had a Teemo support. Unfortuatly I didn't check my Masteries and started with my support setting.

The Game
The opponent Talon from midlane captured my red buff and killed me. He had the rigth idea, what is was doing and my smite was down.
It was a fair game in all time, with all up's and downs. The team reacted good to my dragon an baron notifications and so we got them regularly.
In the late game, our top laner Hecarim was so tanky it was a lot of fun, and the opponent did some really bad moves, so we could kill him easily.

Debriefing
- I must check my tank build for Nautilus and change the order of things

Fair Defeat.
I played Corky on bot and had a very good Leona as support facing a Blitzcrank and a support Morgana.
The rest of the team also worked nice and in early game we got ahead.
Like in the last games the opponent stopped us when we tried to kill inhibitor towers and turned the game around.
I could not work against their combo with Blitzcrank an Yasuo. Yasou kept the enemy team safe from my fire and Blitzcrank pulled me into the heart of the fight, right into yasuos hand and I died often.

My score 6/13/18
Also with 19k damage to champions I was last.

Debriefing
- Dont pick Corky or another main marksman, when there is a yasou.
- Be paitent and stay out of the fights, when enemy could establish shields

Ban&Pick
I had slot 3. Slot 1 ignored the Katarina suggestions and banned Heimerdinger instead.
Guess what: The opponent picked Katarina first.
Slot 5 was crying, that he is slot 5. Slot 1 +2 picked Rammus for jungle and Sivir for adc.
Slot 4 picket Thresh as support so I decided to take top and slot 5 was happy to get mid. Instantly he struggled, what to take against Katarina and chose Lissandra.
The opponents took Katarina, Skarner (jungle), Draven, Nami and Pantheon on top.

Early game
Since we had 3 tanky champions all agreed, that I should go AP instead.
I had my fun by poking Pantheon and could ult him to death in 2 situations.
The enemy Skarner was a problem. He ganked me succesfully twice and I lost my stacks. The ganks of our junger came often to late to have a real impact. But all in all it went good on all lanes.

Mid game
I got some AP and joined the teamfights but Patheon pushed. So I often had to go back into the lane and clean up the…

If you Smite it you get health back. If you deal the killing blow to it you get Crest of Cinders from it.

Well the 3rd try today was successfull.

Ban & Pick
I was in slot 4. Since our slot 1 did non ban Le Blanc and took Renekton for himself, the other team chose Le Blanc instantly and some on the team were grumpy about that.
In the end I ended up in the jungle and took Nautilus, my favorite Jungle Tank. Result: More Grumpyness about the slow movementspeed.
In the end whe had: Renekton, Katarina, Leona and Miss Fortune
The Opponent chose: Le Blanc, Graves, Garen,Gangplank and Ahri

Early Game
My start in the jungle was as usual with a little assist from Renekton. Leona guarded the red buff until the minions reached critical positions.
The moment I had my first teleport back, our midlande got ganked but survived luckily.
Since I promised also to gank mid early I tried my best, but Le Blanc payed to much attention.
The other lanes also ordered ganks but always whave been pushed to the enemy tower, so ganking was not really an option.

Midgame
It seeme…

Ok, from now on I will analyze every ranked game.
My Status: Bronze IV on the bottom

The first game of the day:
Pick and Ban phase: I had 5th slot an must take what was left over.
Lane Top - Decision Tanky AP Lulu since AP and tank was missing - Expierience: none

Lane opponent: Irelia
Opponent jungler Volibear tried early ganks but i could prevent death. Poking Irelia and farming kept my tower healthy, but with that active Volibar, i could not push alone.
My teammates on the bot lane had a hard time and died a lot. The opponent hat 6 kills after 8 minutes, we had 2.
My jungler ganked also, but Irela was able to escape every time.

Midgame we already had lost outer bot tower. No enemy tower had severe scratches. The opponent teamed up for objectives , my Teamates used much energy in flaming and we were toast.

My new status: Bronze V in the upper quater :-(

Hello! I have been doing a lot of research lately as the title says. I'm a botlane main and I have been looking into adc's and supports (but mostly adc's right now) and I am on a quest to become an expert at the subject, but it's going to be a long painful journey and loads of number crunching. But I won't give up hope on what I do right now!

I have been making runes and masteries which shall benefit the needs of all botlane champions, but I might also expand on my knowledge to other lanes at the end of the journey through botlane! Today I can finally say I'm done with the HP part of the research, which is one of the sub-goals in my true goal to know every single botlane adc champions efficient hp (right now I'm only done with adc's, but I will get to that point where it's all done!). This is not a foolish idea in any way if that's what you are thinking right now...of course I can't tell for sure, I don't have telepathy, but they will see....THEY SHALL ALL SEE *evil laugh*. Anyway, he…

'Eyyyy, what's going on MOBA Fire? Wait, say what? You forgot about me? Well, that's a fine how-do-you-do huh? It's been a little bit, distractions and procrastination abound, but later is better than never in my book. So without much further ado, let's get into this patch. It's really a bunch of champion changes and a couple item fixes, but a couple of these are sure to peak interests.

Skins

• Preface - Alright, so technically no skins were announced with this patch since it was close to April Fools day, AKA let's all go play U.R.F. and what we thought would have been N.U.R.F., which I still say was a good prank. Made me not want to play League on the day of fools, and it made me look like a fool. However, some comedic skins came out for the day of the fools, and they are all enjoyable to some degree...well their splash arts anyway.
• Archduke Nasus - This sort of heralds back to the gentlemanly theme back with Cho'Gath and Gragas, and
