Edit: 14/3 as Fiora, enemy team surrendered at 20 ._. Bunch of flunkies, it seemed. Nidalee/Jarvan vs me solo top and holy shit I got fed. Got stopped short of a penta by their Fiddle's fucking lifesteal thing ._. dick.

 

I know that feeling. Whenever I get a half-decent game as Shen, as soon as someone dies from a Stand United gank.

 

"gg surr at 20"

 

idk why people think that comebacks are impossible in League... really slims down my chances for good 40+ min matches. People just need to learn how to /lose/, and not expect to snowball every game they play.

 

Just another reason to grind my MMR up.

My last 10 games have involved one team surrendering between 20 and 25 mins ._. It's fucking annoying. The only time I ever agree to a surrender vote is if we're SEVERELY fucked. Like if 3-4 of the enemy team are super-fed and have destroyed all our towers by 15 mins. At that point I'm just like yeah I don't care anymore.

 

Also lulz. 3-man gank turned into a triple for me. Nobody fucks with a fed Fiora >_> RAWR. I've started using different summoner spells lately. For the most part I keep Heal, but I've been using Ghost a lot and it's quite useful. Especially on someone like Quinn or Fiora who rely on speed. And if I know I'm going to be stuck on my own, I take Barrier. I need to start using Ignite and Exhaust sometime, I just can't get the hang of aiming them for some reason. And if I ever try jungling again, obviously Smite.

Ignite-flash is where it's at, dogggggggggggggggggg. (unless you're ADC, then cleanse/barrier or if you're like olaf or singed then you want ghost over flash or if you're support dat exh/flash... so really, majority of summoners have a place)

I've been digging tele lately too if I know my team is competent. (only on mids, not worth it for top) Early ganks to snowball/recover a bad lane and you get that homeguard->tele for late game zip zip nawmsayin.

I usually use Teleport if I'm using Lux. Really useful for setting up early rushes. Get to the bushes first and then ambush right off the bat.

 

Also lol. Just had a 71-minute match. We won, barely. It ended up we managed to score an ace after being pushed back, our Nami and Malzahar were dead. Myself as Quinn, Mundo, and Cait did a mad dash down mid to get to their nexus. We killed it while their minions had our nexus down to approximately 5% according to Mal. xD Holy fuck I love games like that.

 

Also, I'm so glad the champ rotation kicked in. Got sick of seeing Orianna fuck shit up. Same with Nidalee >.> Though now I have to deal with Malzahar silencing me every 2 seconds or some shit xD

Malz is one of those champions that's different enough that you should play him so you can beat him. Most of his abilities have enough of a delay that they're dodgeable if you're familiar with his mechanics.

Ya I played him when I was on NA for a while due to EUW being broken (again) by Riot >_> He's actually pretty easy to use, I thought. I did quite well. I just don't like the way he looks...or his gender. xD I prefer playing female champs. I need to save up IP again. Lissandra looks really cool, so yeah.

I'm pretty excited about Lissandra, I love utility mages. x: I've been meaning to buy Lulu and Leona so I can actually counter-pick bot lane but I think I'm going to pick Lissandra up first.

I seemed to have found a champion I can play proper.

I don't play mages much, but she seems REALLY useful. I like slows. Lots and lots of slows.

Blitz is really overpowered at the moment, he was one of my favorites for a long time. There was a point in season 2 where he was viable top lane as a bruiser and ermagerd it was fun.

Fer sure, that's why I enjoy lux. My team can get caught/make poor decisions on engage and as long as q is up I can disengage the fight erry time.

I think my playstyle from being a DK so long is overlapping as well. Pull range to me, snare, pewpew, repeat. I got a 7 kill streak before I got a little too close to a tower.

Sho nuff. Blitz is definitely one of the harder champs to play well; right now since you're still new people don't know how to dodge the grabs very well or to stay behind minions, but if your ability to land grabs scales as well as peoples ability to dodge them you'll cheese wins all day. <.<

Yeah, I noticed a few people trying to hide behind minions, but it was easy enough to move around to get them. I did miss one grab, and was very ashamed of myself. >.>

So I was just playing a game where I was consistently 2v1'd. What's the proper thing to do in this situation? I could normally kill one, so should I keep doing that, or run away back to a tower and just wait?

What lane were you in? Was the Nunu (yeti guy on your team) jungling? (he doesn't seem to have been indexed by lolking yet so I can't tell)

 

It depends on the 2v1 situation - if it was a matter of someone from another lane (or jungle) roaming into your lane that's the time to ward. (I'll go into details of why/when/where once I get some time)

 

If it was 2v1 in lane (they had two people sitting there and you didn't have a lane partner) you need to play the dirty 2v1 dance. You're basically going to ward the lane bush closest to your tower (assuming one of them is camping in there and pressuring you from it) and you're going to try to farm as best you can without being forced out of lane. Your teammates should be helping you when they can with ganks/watching tower when you're forced out, but at low levels don't expect much.

 

Right now in 2v1 lanes their goal is to kill you/force you out of lane and push your tower down as early as possible; your goal is to stay in lane safely as long as possible while maximizing the CS (creep score) you can get. They're splitting experience and farm in lane, so once mid/late game hits you'll be ahead in levels and hopefully close to even in gold.

Played Blitz a few matches. There are so many awesome ways to fuck with people xD If you're blue, go in the corner by the purple wolves. It's grab heaven. Enemy team surrendered after I did it 17 times in a row >.> each resulting in a kill for me or my team. lolol

I have no idea what he was doing honestly.

I was playing the right lane (bottom?) and it was two players constantly in my lane.  So basically, sit back and defend the tower vs. trying to push forward. Next game it happens I'll give it a try.
