Game 10


7-3 in placements, could have been better. It could have been much worse, too. Honestly though, those 3 games felt like super tilt mode, so I'm pretty happy with Gold 4. I can carry myself with that. This game was a walk in the park.
What went well this game
Pretty much everything.
I started in lane against a
Mordekaiser. I haven't seen that in ages. Then he tries to outtrade me level 1? I got him down to about 1/4 HP and made him blow his
Flash without even trying. Then
Shyvana tried to gank me. I just soloed her and got her double buffs. Afterwards, I quickly killed
Mordekaiser who was sitting under turret.
The rest of the game was basically more of the same. I roamed around and kept picking up kills. Eventually,
Rek'Sai decided to help with the Rift Herald and give me that buff. I mean, that just sealed the deal. It was impossible to kill me.
They surrendered pretty quickly after 20 minutes.
What went poorly/I need to work on
I got greedy and dove
Shyvana under middle tower. I mean, she died, but it still was unnecessary.
I probably could have done a better job CSing. Honestly though, I was more concerned with pushing and getting kills. I was snowballing so hard that we were going to win.
Random Thoughts
For any aspiring
Mordekaiser players, here's a tip. Don't start
Ruby Crystal and proceed to go AD. I don't know what this guy was doing, but he was just building terribly. I think he was going for
Hextech Gunblade, but I don't know.
I built an early
Hexdrinker, which seemed to work fairly well. I'm still not sure whether to build
Quinn as a Tanky AD or as a full fledged ADC. I've seen both work. I mean, I was snowballing this game so ADC was an obvious choice, but I'm not sure how to build her in general.
I also started with
Cull. I've been trying it out recently, and it actually scales pretty quickly. 100 minions is not a lot when you are good at farming and pushing. I'm not certain I'll run it bot lane, but it basically translates to 500 extra gold that you aren't wasting on a Doran's item.

Game 11

Thank the lord for fed
Master Yi. Oh, and splitpushing.
What went well this game
They picked
Illaoi top. I figured, I have no idea what does well against her, and I think I know how to play against her now, so why not
Shyvana? I even picked up a kill on her early.
Everyone else on our team got pretty fed and just started rolling through their team. We had good dragon control, and our splitpushing was amazing. As you would expect it to be with a
Shyvana and
Master Yi.
What went poorly this game/I need to work on
I way overstayed after killing
Illaoi early on. I wanted a CS and experience lead, which didn't happen, as
Udyr killed me and put me behind.
I held onto my summoner spells way too much. There were several places a
Flash could have saved me, and many times I just walked to places instead of using
Teleport. The
Teleport thing isn't terrible, because it could be used to splitpush multiple lanes or to join a fight, but I barely used it at all.
Random Thoughts
So, I started
Cull again. While it worked out all right, I'm not sure about it as a start on
Shyvana. At least, not in this matchup. I feel like either a
Doran's Shield start or possibly a
Long Sword start would have been more appropriate.
I'm still trying to figure out how to play against
Illaoi. Her health sustain is ridiculous, but she burns through mana like no tomorrow. Her
Test of Spirit is extremely annoying, and for some reason I always fail to dodge it. Guess that's another thing to work on.

Game 12

We just crushed their team all game. It was kind of amazing.
What went well this game
Dr. Mundo walked all over their team. He was practically unkillable. He had some really nice ganks bot lane that netted a bunch of kills, and he roamed all over the place. We were pushing down towers, getting dragons, and generally sweeping through their team.
Also, my
Vayne mechanics were much better this game. Still nothing amazing, but it's incredible how fun
Vayne is when you actually play her well.
What went poorly this game/I need to work on
We hit a road block about 20 minutes into the game.
Master Yi somehow appeared and picked up a triple or two, and he became a huge threat. Once we started grouping, he basically didn't do anything, but he stalled us for a bit.
I really need to work on CSing. My lord, it is bad. I'm used to ADCs that rush
B. F. Sword, not
Bilgewater Cutlass.
Vayne just seems to have a big difference in base damage compared to other ADCs. Also, trading. I need to remind myself that you don't trade with
Vayne by getting two stacks of
Silver Bolts and then
Tumble into an autoattack on a minion. Still have to work on using
Tumble to dodge skill shots. I started getting the hang of it later on in the game, but early game was rough.
I probably should have grouped a bit earlier and more often with the team, but in the end, this game was extremely one-sided.

Games 13-16




I was so angry during a few of these games, I just went on complete tilt and played a bunch of games in a row. I didn't check to make sure my software was recording (hint: it wasn't), so no videos for these. I really have nothing to say. I played like garbage in most, if not all of these, and I don't even remember these games. Writing this after like, a week, because I just decided to stop the raging while I was ahead.
I'm considering these a write-off - moving on with my life. Should have some more games (with videos) this weekend.

"And he asked the Riot gods for a mindless game of splitpushing. The gods looked down upon him, and deemed that it was good."

Splitpushing. That's about it.
Also, farm! I had a ridiculous amount of gold simply from CS - it was glorious.

Random Thoughts
What. The. Hell.
Also, I'm pretty sure it's been a long time since I've gotten 10 CS a minute. Obviously, I didn't have that at the end of the game, but I was hitting that ratio at one point. I was full build with almost no kill participation.
It's super silly how much damage
Not so sure about ADC
