Daklore

They're for the League of Legends fantasy league team things. They're official rito links, so, they're safe.

Faceroll a game so hard it's actually not that fun... Ended up 1v2'ing their bot lane, while facetanking The Culling... Turns out my bullet time does more >.>

Rave: You are mine now, Atlantean Syndra.

In other news, any tips on using her? I just usually toss a W toss, then spam Q twice, E, then R.

Kresslack

Well, I tried. Was fun though.

There's a neat trick that if you land a Q, and if you E relatively soon thereafter (assuming no drastic reposition from the enemy), you'll pretty much always hit that E stun. E stun a bit tricky, so if you're having trouble landing it, try that.

Syndra is also really cool, because she can cast spells while moving. Try to micro your movements to dodge things or position more intelligently while casting spells, similarly to how an ADC kites.

She's a little fragile in mid because of no 'hard' escapes like a blink or Ziggs satchel charge, so I would be wary of using E too much, because Q on yourself plus E to stun the enemy jungler and the enemy mid when you're being ganked is pretty good. But if you used it to harass or just missed it completely a few seconds earlier, might have to flash.

So know where the enemy jungler is with you/your wards, and when the jungler shows, feel free to use E in the harass combo. Or use it whenever you like, just know that E is pretty important in fighting off ganks.

Oh! I tried that one time. It felt like doing a hadoken, which was awesome. Also, seriously, the water trails following her water spheres when they are E'd were a nice visual touch.

Cynlael

Such a balanced champion, lol.

I mean, Nunu is fine and all, but I just don't like him... All things considered, this game started out horrible(I mean, look at all that harass), and we managed to win it. It wasn't even a stomp, really, it was just... our team was better with what they had than the enemy team was.

Also, we had three tanks to soak up damage. That too.

But the game was over. They were pounding on our Nexus--litterally, turrets were gone, they were actually hitting the nexus--our team was still in the death chamber ... and then up pops Orianna. Everyone had already done their /all gg wp because, it was a foregone conclusion.

Instant three-man delete from shockwave. And we were back in the game, just like that. Pentakill for orianna on that play(Alistair robbed her of an earlier penta earlier... completely unintentional, but, his passive + sunfire + enemy only having a sliver of health... it happens). We never finished the game on their death timers... but, apparently Corki must've raged or something... We beat them under their turrets when they had finished rezzing, dropped turrets and nexus and won the game. One of the more satisfying wins, really.

Scored my first ranked pentakill today. No end of game image, cause, I forgot. Derp. But, still, Twitch OP, yo. Started doing my placements a couple days ago, six games in, three wins, three losses... probably headed straight back to Bronze XD Which is probably where I belong anyway.

Maybe silver.

Wish my first Penta was something to brag about. I got it from a Karthus alt hehe. Not as impressive when you hit everyone on the map without seeing them.

Welp, finished my placements. Apparently, the game thinks I'm better than I actually am or something. I mean, it's not like I had a 12/0/2 Jinx game or anything...

Also, Twitch is so OP. Plz rito, never nerf.

Arillis

Silver III ? Nice. I got dropped in Bronze II as Support/Jungler with 6 wins, 4 losses

My eyes bleed everytime I see the amount of derp in my ranked divisions. I deserve better!

Bronze is like a hellish nightmare you cannot wake up from. You try to break free...rise above it...but these terrible creatures just keep dragging you back down.

You speak of experience! Did you ever leave Bronze? If yes, teach me, oh master!

One more win and i'm at the qualifications. I know how this will end.

Vayne

Nope, bronze for life bro...I'll win all day until I get to series then have the two worst games/team possible.

You didn't throw around enough bananas. It's all about the bananas.
