Damage is still too high

I remember having some AD, attack speed, 21 MR at level 18, and 21 armor at level 18 with runes.

now I have 10 ad, 5 armor.

yep, runes totally didn't fuck defensive rune pages.

Heh. Here's my last game:

Literally the competition of the stat check

Veigar stacks? Check.

Jinx recovering after a 0/8 lane shutdown due to range/1-2 items? Check...

Teemo shrooms taking 2/3 of an HP bar as a freebie? Check.....

Karthus with Dark Harvest popping people even when they cast Heal and have half HP again? Check...

Kai Sai getting fed 8/0 and popping people with just W + Q? Check......

Oh. And then there's me...... the hyper "you can't catch me but I erase you in .5 seconds" Zyra with DH.

Seriously. I was getting annoyed by my own team's stall-out to win.

Should have been a 25 min game. Instead they face rush Veigar Walls, try to kill Sylas instead, and recall at low HP right next to an enemy minion wave so that Jinx can fish in a barrel them.

I pretty much had to play V shaped movement in the right spots to win this as hard as I did.

Max range the Veigar, save R and Q for Jinx, and flash in a V pattern to avoid walls/ambushes while staying in the fight to get the triples.

Sadly..... that's the answer to stat check champs: be prepared to make them blow their entire kit, and return the favor.

I agree, but they are making progress. Remember when just had to w q w aa ignite at level 3 and he got the kill almost everytime? Yeah those were the days I stopped playing mid.
