[quote=OTGBionicArm][center][h3]Game 3:[/h3] [i]"[b]I'm[/b] my own back up."[/i] [url=http://i.imgur.com/6yZWMNr.png][img=http://i.imgur.com/6yZWMNr.png width=500][/url] [h3]Thought Process:[/h3][/center] I picked [[Vi]] because I wanted early snowballing for [[Katarina]] and [[Renekton]]. On the opposite side was [[Udyr]] and I was a bit concerned he would counter jungle me, but he ended up not doing that. I got a lot of early kills, so I went with [[spirit of the elder lizard]] and [[the brutalizer]]. I ended the game on [[Randuin's Omen]] and my final items likely would have been a [[Spirit Visage]], [[the black cleaver]], [[Guardian angel]] and selling Elder lizard for a [[Blade of the ruined king]]. For runes I used flat AD marks and quints with scaling MR blues. I ran 9/21 masteries, being unsure how tanky I really needed to be this game. [center][h3]Game Summary:[/h3][/center] The game started off well enough, me and [[renekton]] burned a flash on [[Wukong]], and I thought "Worth!" but then [[Udyr]] managed first blood on [[lulu]] at bot lane. The theme of this game was that [[Udyr]] was usually one step ahead of me every time I wanted to gank, and he'd kill my laner, but I'd kill his, then he'd chase me off. They got every dragon, and around mid game I noticed [[Renekton]] was building some silly [[the black cleaver]]/[[Ravenous Hydra]] build. I was tankier than him. T.T Despite being the most fed member on my team, I got popped every team fight by the [[ahri]] and eventually they just wrecked us all with ease. Superior team comp and plays is what I can chalk this game up to. [center][h3]Things I learned:[/h3][/center] [[Vi]] isn't exactly the best fit for every team. I picked her early on and I feel like we just had no burst follow up on targets. [[Ezreal]] and [[Katarina]] just simply didn't have the damage. [center][h3]Things to work on:[/h3][/center] I built too selfishly. Although... I did assume [[Renekton]] would be our tank, but that ended up not happening. [center][h3]Questions for MOBAFire:[/h3][/center] I feel I made a very selfish pick by playing [[Vi]], and I built even more selfishly. Would this game had gone better if I used a more team oriented jungler like [[Sejuani]] or Perhaps [[Volibear]]?[/quote]

[quote=Bioalchemist]from my experience....both sej and voli rely on your team heavily. most junglers do but sej and voli do even more so. voli needs a couple early kills/assists to be anything. based on the kda's of your team it would seem that none of your lanes really won their lanes. this is an assumption BUT if they couldn't win their lanes likely they weren't going to carry a game...and if none of your lanes can be a competent carry than sej and voli wouldn't be as useful imo. obviously i am a nooblord, but those are my thoughts.[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]@Bio, yea kinda, but getting fed as a tank can lead to some interesting team fights if everyone forces you. My next game proves that. [center][h3]Game 4:[/h3] [i]"We fight while cowards talk."[/i] [url=http://i.imgur.com/JEr2MWa.png][img=http://i.imgur.com/JEr2MWa.png width=500][/url] [h3]Thought Process:[/h3][/center] I picked [[Sejuani]] simply because I hadn't played her in forever and really wanted to. My team actually kinda picked to compliment that with [[morgana]] and [[thresh]]. [[Elise]] was the enemy jungler and I really wasn't threatened by her at all, and killed her myself (I know right?) two times when she ganked. For runes I used Hybrid pen marks and Quints with scaling MR. I used 0/21/9 masteries to keep blue up as long as possible. I outright bought [[Spirit of the ancient golem]] and immediately rushed [[Sunfire cape]] because I was 4/0 early on. [[Annie]] and [[Ziggs]] were kind of a problem so I got [[Spirit Visage]]. [[Tristana]] was also fed as hell so I got a [[Thornmail]] for shits and giggles. I would have finished that build with a [[Warmog's armor]]. [center][h3]Game Summary:[/h3][/center] Early game was pretty funny. We burned [[Wukong]]'s flash immediately and he was pretty much frightened of [[olaf]] for the rest of the game in a 1v1 situation. I went mid where [[Elise]] tried to gank [[Morgana]] and failed. She ate a Q and half of a W DoT and walked off... straight into my bear and died. First blood. Sadly bot lane began feeding [[Tristana]] immediately after this. Second time [[Elise]] ganked mid was pretty much a repeat scenario (I realized at this point she was building AP items) and we easily secured Dragon and [[Morgana]] got a double kill. At this point [[Tristana]] had like 5 kills and was pretty angry, bot turret had been destroyed and our bot lane was pretty weak. After getting Dragon we man moded the Turret and destroyed it. I called for everyone to force mid lane while [[Olaf]] was keeping [[Wukong]] at bay. There were a few rocky team fights because [[Olaf]] spent almost all his time splitpushing and [[Wukong]] made desperate attempts to team fight. A few lead to my death and the deaths of [[Thresh]] and [[caitlyn]] too, but [[morgana]] nearly single handedly won the hard fights. After that, [[Olaf]] came down and we more or less just caught either [[Ziggs]] or [[tristana]] out with my ult or [[Thresh]] hook and murdered them, then forced the 4v5 until we secured victory. [center][h3]Things I Learned:[/h3][/center] I'm still OP with [[Sejuani]]. AoE comp is totes still legit. [[Morgana]] also OP. [center][h3]Things to work on:[/h3][/center] I stole so many kills and I was reckless as fuck. I was a fed murder bear cavalry woman though so it usually worked out. Also, I feel like my runes were iffy. While I did feel a damage increase in early fights, it made my jungle clear suffer by not using attack speed marks. [center][h3]Questions to MOBAFire:[/h3][/center] What do YOU think of [[Sejuani]]? Still decent in S4?[/quote]

[quote=DillButt64]i personally like sej with katarina (referring to your vi game) because of the ult synergy and ever since the new jungle changes ive been finding the first clear a bit too murderish for sejuani (of course i think i went 21/9/0 in one of those games on accident and only played 2 games) and with a lot of carry junglers all over the place it feels like someone can just walk in your jungle and kill you easy and i dont like that, i also used to play sejuani as a wtf gank heavy jungler so the new jungle farming items are a nerf to my playstyle with sej also i go AS reds on her cuz i heard that made her clear a bit faster back when she was the op shit with naut[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]Yea I was feeling the low health on first clear but the new sightstone helps a LOT. Like holy mother of god. Edit: Also I should point out the Kat in the Vi game didnt mean to be kat. Misclick and she didnt know what she was doing.[/quote]

[quote=DillButt64]you mean spirit stone not sight stone right? and yeah i was thinking the new passive would be better if youre farming but i like to gank a lot, which means the regen would be better for me, ill have to play her again since shes one of my favorite champions[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]I highly suggest it. :D I hadn't played her in months, she was one of my most consistently good junglers in S3.[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]I've made a few changes to my roster; Replaced [[Varus]] with [[Twisted fate]] as a mid laner for a more map control orient composition. I replaced [[Zac]] with [[karma]] to address concerns with my lack of ability to deal with ranged top laners as well as the fact that I use [[Zac]] for much the same reason I'd use [[Cho'Gath]]. Lastly, replaced [[Volibear]] with [[Gragas]] to have a strong AP jungle pick. Thoughts on these new choices guys?[/quote]

[quote=Wayne3100][[Cho'gath]] > [[Zac]] because you feel more comfortable on Cho or because you feel he's better? Haven't played Cho top at all in ages so obviously I'd personally choose [[Zac]], but yeah, just wondering what the thought behind it is :P[/quote]
