Have you been watching the World Championships? I wasn't able to see yesterday's, but I saw a craaaazy M5 game just now! Teamfights all over the place! Both teams scored a couple aces. Ultimately M5's burst beat out Invictus though. I wanted to watch the second match (starting about right now) but my internet is too laggy now, rendering the stream entirely unwatchable. I hope they post the videos on youtube soon. Watching pro games is so fun.

Yeah I watched it tester day... it was awesone

I'm waiting for the TSM vs. Azubu game right now. :3 I'm really excited. I'm getting impatient though! They started the game but one of the computers had problems, so Riv and Phreak are just talking about dumb stuff right now. They're kinda entertaining, but I can only take so much.

I take it Azubu won.

Yeah they did... it makes me a sad panda

I was hoping that TSM would have learned from the last time they lost to Azubu this summer and did better. :C Oh well. M5 FOR VICTORYYYYYYY!!!

I definitely wanted to see a TSM vs M5 epic final match, but now that I think of it, TSM has been doing the same stuff forever and it's gotten kinda boring to watch them.

Yeah that is true

One of the things I like best about M5 is that they play unique champions. Seeing them send Eve then Zilean mid, using Kogmaw instead of one of the Holy Trinity of AD Carries, it was so beautiful. :'D I'd be happy if I never saw a Morgana mid again.

im so sad now... bc of the world championship they are gonna nerf ezreal...

They were already planning to nerf him. The only reason they didn't do it before was because they wanted the meta to remain relatively stable for the month-ish leading up to the tournament.

Yeah I know... it still make me sad though

I'm actually kinda excited for it. People who love and are good at Ezreal will still play him and will still do well, and people who suck at him will give up and start playing Graves or something easier. I respect really good Ez players, but I'm sick of solo queue people who bought Pulsefire and started playing him just because he was cool, without really learning how to play him effectively.

i know how to play him but i do have my off games

Yeah, off games aren't a big deal. The people I get frustrated with are the ones who don't know how to play him at all. I can usually tell if it's an off game or a lack of skill by the way they use his abilities.

Lucid still won't play with me. She hates my faise ;n;

I play Ezreal, and play him well. It suuuucks getting paired wit ha terrible support though. I'm usually our AP mid, and my favorite people to mid with are Orianna and Ashe right now. Ashe can snowball really fast, so yeah. When I go bottom, it's usually Ezreal or Evelynn, or if I'm supporting Soraka or Sona. If I need to hybrid I go Blitzcrank or Alistar. when I top, it's Jax or Shyvana. Jungle is Master Yi or Udyr.

and those are my roles =D I play mid and bottom best.

My best team com ever was me mid as Orianna, a Rammus jungling, a Vayne top, a Fizz and a Kog'Maw bottom. IT was fuuuuun

Whenever you and I are on at the same time, you're already in a game. ;w;

I've been playing mostly 3v3s lately, and rocking it with Evelynn. I need a generally tanky/bruiserish team to go with her though, because an Eve/Fiora/Diana team just dies too quickly.

I'm saving up my IP to buy Shyvana. Any tips?

Max W like a boss. the amount of damage and the seed boost turns her into a great chaser, and is especially useful to either catch up to people like Yi and Shen, or to escape fights. Her attack speed is very important, as it lowers the cooldown on her Q and adds to the time her W lasts. Berserker's Greaves should always, without fail, be your boots unless their team comp is like Annie, Olaf, Blitzcrank, Morgana, Trundle. If that ungodly thing ever happens to you, then you have my permission to grab Merc Treads.

My ending build is usually: Berserker's Greaves, Black Cleaver, Bloodthirster, Bloodthirster, Frozen Mallet, Banshee's Veil. Greaves and Mallet are your most important, build them fast. Warmog and Maw of Malmortius can also be really good on her. In fact, building her tanky has turned games for me.

Her Dragon form, save. Do not use it just because you can, and if you ever use anything besides W on minions you're doing it wrong. Her Q does affect towers, so use it on the ma ton.

Her Dragon is great for engaging ganks if you're jungling, and it's beautiful for jumping into team fights. Hit R, jump in and damage everyone ,then pop W and E like a boss. In Dragon form ,constantly keep your W up as much as you can, and if you see them running ,feel free to chase them down the lane with W active, it will give them nowhere to run, and use your E generously.

i know how to play ezreal but with a bad support i cant do crap... i had a crappy blitzcrank that missed everyone of his rocket grabs

I got paired with a soraka who maxed the mana restore/silence...then heal..then Q...THEN ULT

Yeah. THEY DID ULT. LAST. And wouldn't ward. I finally had to just start putting up wards. Like, at the end, even my team was like "Uhhh Ezreal how did you die 11 times and only get 5 kills?! WTF MAN?!" "Soraka =.= forcefed me to the blues" "Oh. Gotcha <<"

I did get to build al lthe way to Phantom Dancer, Black Cleaver, Bloodthirster, Bloodthirster, Berserker's Greaves, Infinity Edge that game =D

hell yeah beast build

I managed to do Ionian Boots of Lucidity, Bloodthirster x4, Phantom Dancer on Hecarim once xD The other team, at the end, was like "OH GOD OMGWTFBBQ"

ugh worst team ever... im trying to jungle rengar but i cant even do that... i try to set up ganks but they run away

Teams that don't work together, or with ganks, annoy me. I now see why "unskilled player" is a reason to report someone in PvP games.

yeah... well i keep getting paired with randoms

I usually like to play with a specific few people. One of them isn't the best player ever, but she has a good attitude and is a real team player. We either do bot together or she goes mid and I jungle xD

ugh i got a QQ kayle on my team now

Kayle is always either amazing or terrible. Or a kser

Yeah... I'm done with league for now... until I find a few friends to play

Good luck! Also, friend and chat with any good players you find! My favorite League partner I met that way

Same here but I also have friends in rl that play well

well get them online xD

owo Thanks! I'm excited to get Shyv, but I'm still only at a lowly 2500 IP. I wish my internet was better, I'd play a whole lot more. Sunday after the grand finals is double IP day though! I might be able to reach 6300 that way.

Oh gosh, I hate bad supports. My husband thinks supports are boring and is always trying to come up with "unique" supports, like Rumble. Zoning =/= supporting. But hey, it's better than people who fail at Soraka. You seriously have to be a terrible player to fail at Soraka.

I'm a good Blitz. ^.^ Last night I hooked a Veigar blind over the wall and into my tower for a kill. Then as soon as hook was off cooldown I did the exact same thing to their Ez. I felt so awesome.

When is the Riven skin on sale?

I'm a bad Blitz, but a wonderful Sona

I'm a bad Sona in lane but a pretty good lategame Sona. Contrast being an excellent lane Soraka and not as good as I should be lategame. Or maybe that's just because I feel useless late. And I'm bad at Alistar forever. :c

I think Riven skin goes on sale for the week after the finals (next week).

Well, I love Soraka for the whole game. I like to play her magey too, I can play her as a DPS pretty well, in fact. Her Q is LETHAL.But support wise...my only flaw is that I don't work well with wards, which is no big, just tell me when and where!

I'm getting good at Jungle, especially Udyr and Yi!

Cool....I really want the skin, Riven is my favorite AD champ, but.....I hope I can afford her xD

My husband is thinking of getting Riven. He's our team's dedicated top, but so far he mostly plays mages (favoring Rumble). Udyr is his only AD bruiser and he gets kited too hard.

I only get to play AP Soraka in ARAMs because nobody likes you in solo queue if you take her mid. :P I do dominate those ARAM games where I get Soraka though! And I love her new in-game models! Warding is just a matter of experience. I've learned the best places to ward against different junglers. Shaco/Rengar require bush wards, while less sneaky junglers like Nunu or Cho you can get by with a ward right on the corner by the dragon pit. If I'm feeling like I want to be really safe and really nice, I put a ward in river so I can see both dragon and the exit to purple's blue buff, and one in the tribush. Late game, I ward the wraith ramps, the wraith bush, dragon/baron, and red/blue buffs. If we're pushed into our base, I put wards right outside the walls and slowly ward bushes outward, only going where I have vision.

Riven and Shyvana are who I prefer to use top, but Jax is just better right now. Riven is cool though, just gotta be REALLY good with timing.

also, support rumble is a terrible idea. Almost as bad as Kha'Zix anything. ZIX IS TERRIBAD

I might have a decent team tonight

I won't be playing any today. I used up all my energy on a special project this morning.

aww that sucks
