just checked the elo of guys who are currently avaible for observation. ~1.4k elo. are those 2k and above guys are not playing anything?

0/11 ashe

lol ranked

Earlier today I played a rank game.

Join game, instant "akali or afk in game" from last pick.

So, we build a team comp around this, as none of us are going to dodge.

I'm bot with Ashe. In our lane we only got one kill off (their jungle came down, ours did not), but we only gave up 1 death (about 10 min in, after our kill, when ganked from the jungler who I shall now talk about).

So, I'm 1/0/0, Ashe is 0/0/1, as I managed to get the final blow as Soraka. I had full life while Ashe did not, so when their AD (forget who) went under the tower with ~10 life, I followed and got the kill, and didn't die on my way out.

Our jungle dies to theirs multiple times. Their jungle is Jax, I forget who we had. Our top lane dies to their top lane multiple times. Our mid, Akali, got a couple of kills, but then starts dying multiple times. All of a sudden, I'm looking at the score, and top/mid/jungle have 3-4 deaths each, with us being nice and safe at bot. Then turrents went down.

Queue: Rage.

Left and right things are being thrown out. Our jungler was profusely apologizing for dying twice to Jax early game. Akali was raging so hard. Top lane was in on this.

Then Akali starts the trash talk, saying how they're the only good player due to having the only kills on the team (minus myself, of course). They went on to say that as long as you have an even KD ratio (which they didn't at this point), you're a good player. Being 10/10 is better than 0/10, and being 10/10 is also better than being 0/0.

Sometime around this point, bot lane now has 3+ people in it constantly, pushing Ashe and I. Ashe begins to falter and die repeatedly. I manage to stay alive somehow.

By the end of the game, I was something like 2/2/6 and the rest of the team had 6+ deaths each. Akali was 5/7 and claiming that they had nothing to due with the other team becoming fed, because every time they died, they killed someone else (which, obviously they didn't).

I don't understand the logic in these games. I have no idea how I didn't rage. All I said was "SUICIDING INTO 4 PEOPLE IS FEEDING REGARDLESS OF GETTING A KILL." Yes, I used caps. But, it was in response to Akali's caps.

I walked away from the game shaking my head. I still don't understand the logic used by individuals at this point in ranked... and this is also the reason why I've decided I need a carry role.

If someone demands a champ, ignore them. Never ever negotiate with terrorists.

Alright, jungle Cass. Here we go.

As far as i would like to carry on my own(all the hooting time , stupid , stupid , useless teammates) , sometimes you just have to play for the team.It really gets less disturbingly stupid if you can pass the 1480 elo threshold where people will actually work together for team objectives(this is probably the tipping point where i can say that its more "fun" to play ranked than normals).

You have to coordinate your team in that elo if you want to win(people like playing "solo" champions that fall off lategame) and actively tell them to play passive early game and farm and like i said , just try out the lose and stop thing ; maybe it will work for you.

I remember a 1200 elo game where our sona at bot was basically not trying anymore which was more annoying/depressing than the gangplank at top that fed 4 kills top ; giving up so easily is not the way to win games and having a positive attitude will eventually pay out.In the end when i was 1400 that sona was still at 1250.

That actually happened to me last night, we had a 4 premade and 1 random, the 1 random decides to go Cass jungle.
Nevertheless we still won, stopped jungling after dying 3 times in jungle.

Am I the only one who still consistently plays Lulu? It seems most players have given up on her even though she can be really good, especially with the updated mage items.

I autobought her on release and only played with her like 5 times. I didn't like her at all, and thought that sona/soraka were better supports and just stopped using her. I might give her another shot tomorrow.

Didn't go well, lanes fed. Lux couldn't jungle, was last pick, randomed lux.

Magic pen reds

Armour yellows

Scaling MR blues

Spell Vamp quints.

Didn't die in the jungle, got a good leash. Wasn't really that hard.

It appears ranked games on weekends are a no-no.

fail with cookies, sry ;D
