I give up. At least for tonight.
Viktor with his Q shield and a Seraph's Embrace shield is ridiculous. Literally couldn't kill him even when landing on right on top of him with that combination. Heh, watch me survive your best shot and then let me kite you.Melee supports seem to get shafted on gold generation.
Unless you are someone that builds
Executioner's Calling or Morellonomicon in your regular build a Bramble Vest is a good investment verses Fiora. To be completed into a Thornmail later in the game because it works against her kit so well as she is one of the few champions in the game to do % max health true damage when she procs vitals generated through her passive Duelist's Dance. It also reduces the healing received from anyone that has been hitting you with basic attacks when she procs the vitals associated with her ultimate, Grand Challenge.Also,
Nidalee can heal for a lot between Crest of Cinders and Primal Surge. Found this out by blowing her Flash and just about killing her at her Raptors. She came back with about 2/3rd health, though the real problem ended up being Fiora coming from Top lane to cut me off on my retreat. So the second reminder is to pay attention to lane priority when invading.
Not really sure what to do about
Illaoi. I killed her twice. Didn't seem to make a bit of difference. She just kept marching down Top lane. I walked out of her ult and went back in after the tentacles from it went down. I would have tried to kill her before she got her ult buy Garen had her shoved a little past the river which made a super dicey gank, especially since Master Yi could very well have been in the area.Having Top lane losing hard meant I kept losing some of my Top side jungle.
Got the first three drakes
I started the game off nicely, noticing
Lee Sin's pathing and stealing his Blue buff and Gromp and I didn't lose anything in return. Personally ended up 2-0 and then the wheels came off the bus.It became a clown fiesta with some really bizzare roams from
Jax who some how ended up in Bot lane doing I am not sure what and then their team also started making odd roam plays except the managed to take advantage of their roams and we did not. Taliyah was the only semi-bright spot. Top and Bot got ****ped on and then their Top and Bot were able to exert pressure around the map and we couldn't match it.
Whew, solid laners. Though
Ahri was a weak spot and Alistar kept getting himself killed. Aatrox manhandled Nasus. Not so much that he killed him a lot, but he kept shoving him into his turret and using Demolish to knock the hell out of his tower and then he went and soloed Rift Herald and used it to get another tower.There was a weird transition spot where Ahri didn't know where to be, though I suspect she largely wanted to just get away from the
Zed but by that point he was roaming around the map. Fortunately I had a Impale to great him when he decided to get too froggy and he wasn't sharp enough to buy a Quicksilver Sash.I guided Ahri back to Mid lane to serve as wave clear, though eventually she ended up Top for that purpose. While I honored the Aatrox because it was his pressure that made this game relatively smooth for the rest of us, I still thanked Ahri for keeping it cool. (though I really did want to tell her one more time to use her
Zhonya's Hourglass, but I refrained and only gave her the compliment).By the end
Jhin was also huge. While he may not have the DPS of some ADCs he can quickly kill or damage squishies enough that they want out of the fight.
Hi, I'm your jungler. I'm going to gank your lane after I hit level 3.
Action A: Push enemy laners almost to their turret?
Action B: Let enemy laners push you in so you are on your side of the river.
Which do you choose? Hint: Not option A.
Cho'Gath played well Top lane. Mid and Bot, Bot especially straight up inted for some hair brained tower dive with Shyvana visible on that side of the map.Later more inting after we pushed them into their base. Just back up and reset. You just made a series of good plays. Don't f it up by overstaying!!!!!@!!!!!!!!
Varus rocking a Banshee's Veil. It did mean I had to wait until someone hit him with something or use my Tiamat active when I got close to proc the spell shield before ulting him.And my perennial favorite. Hey so and so. That relatively easy lane you have until level 6. Yeah that changes once they get their ultimate so you might want some [insert defensive stat here]. Because they get a lot more dangerous, oh and
Shyvana, Bard, Garen, and Varus all do some magic damage.I don't know what it is with
Warwick but I rarely seem to have good ranked games on him.
I played this game well. I don't know what
Ahri and Jhin or Nasus for that matter were doing.We were making plays around
Alistar. That was what was working. The team couldn't comprehend that they had a good pick comp or that Varus with a stacked Guinsoo's Rageblade could kill us all if we didn't focus him down immediately.

Sigh. It was my fault the game got prolonged because somehow I missed the
I died like paper in the last couple of team fights. Kind of felt like **** to build full tank and just die literally instantly.
That said
