One of THE hardest games I've ever played as Talon, if not the hardest. And by that I don't mean how difficult carrying my team was, I mean how hard it was to actually play well.
The first half of the game after laning phase was 100% centered around baron, so every team was permanently grouped up. I had absolutely 0 chances to catch anyone. And this wasn't going to stop until 1 team eventually got the baron.
We caught out Amumu then Vlad and did baron, so we went mid and destroyed 2 inhibitors. Through those 2 inhibitors we eventually destroyed the third ( still no chances to catch anyone out 'cuz grouping up OP ). Then we eventually managed to destroy their turrets and we spent like 10 minutes sitting in front of their nexus, too afraid to engage cuz amumu.
Loooooooooong story short, we won, but I didn't get to do any plays. :( I played the last team-fight well though, even if I died. I burst Tristana down to 0% HP from full, then killed her the millisecond she respawned. My GA went down ( literally the only time I've ever bought a defensive item since I started using Insoy's build, that's how hard this game was for me ) and I killed someone else, before dying. Then my team ended it 'cuz whoever killed me was intent on doing it even if it meant them dying too.
Anyway, back in promos 'cuz free win.
Idk if I'll skip to plat 1 or not. That game where I earnt 16 LP isn't a good way to judge what my MMR is like because we had a diamond 5 MF duo'ing with bronze 1 Sona, so that influenced my LP gain in some way, I think.
Edit: 15/2 with Talon over the past week, 100% ranked, and 1 of those losses was against the diamond 2 Ahri. #feelingproud

This doesn't look very good.
I also seem to remember the last time I had 2 smites on my team, the enemy Ezreal stole baron with his ult, despite the 2 smites.
... their team has an ez

Jarvan and Rengar were pre-made and trolling. I thought I could carry it anyway but my team somehow thought the best thing to do would be to group up mid and force team-fights.
WHILE I STILL ONLY HAD 1 ITEM.
They failed miserably and they surrendered at 20.

PS yorick has THE ****test champion design ever. After his first recall he spent the entire laning phase spamming QWE on me and never even went OOM. I went 4/0 against him and STILL somehow ended up dying to him when I tried to straight-up 1v1 him.
Yep. Not the most overpowered champion - in fact, I don't think he's overpowered at all, exactly - but he's sure one heck of a ****py design. There's no counterplay there. There's barely any play at all. He just sits there and farms and out-harrasses you and there's nothing you can do.
He's like
"NO! BAD LANE OPPONENT! YOU SIT DOWN AND YOU FARM AND YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU DID!"
