Absolutely insane last promo game to platinum.

i've been in plat promos 4 times in the last month finally got it with the craziest game I've had in 8 years of playing.

Storytime!

Our team: Braum Lux Skarner Jax Jhin

Their Team: Anivia Rumble Shaco Vayne Bard

We get pooped on early game. 0-8 bot lane, 0-5 mid lane. 2-4 top, and 3-1 jungle. Things were looking grim. Enemy pushed us to inhibs with no towers at like 22 minutes. They grabbed baron. We turtle hardcore and ward our jungle with all the pinks the shop could offer. They grabbed Elder. We turtle through elder dragon. We caught their shaco as he was trying to backdoor. Then we won a teamfight. they got a second baron. We turtled through that for another 5 minutes. They shoved hard through our bot/mid inhibs, We pushed back. Double-aced (both teams dead.) Then we fought over the last baron, We lost the fight. 3 members survived and held the nexus up just with just a couple auto's worth of health. The rest of us spawned.. We had one last major teamfight in jungle.. Almost everyone died. 2 of our guys survived. Jhin and Jax. One of their guys, Rumble. Jax teleported into their base, pushed down 2 towers, and a nexus, while jhin spammed his w on the retreating rumble who was trying to recall in every bush in our jungle. We finally won the game at the 45 minute mark. We absolutely got DESTROYED early game. We had NO foreseeable way to win. We never had a gold advantage. Our MMR was lower. Our enemies were fed.

Don't. Give. Up. Games.

If you notice.. we had perfect bans..

I would say other than Jax, there were ZERO "problem champs."

No irelia.. graves.. khazix.. akali.

I really whole heartedly believe thats why the game felt like a game I would've had in 2013.

Don't. Give. Up. Games.

Surely not in your promos. But otherwise, investing an extra 10mins or so on a tiny chance of winning, instead of putting that time into a new game with better chances, may not be advisable.

Honestly your team had super mega late game team. They were probably too stupid to finish early game, but whatsoever congratulations on the win.

This is not happening every day...

Just because once out of every 100 times I'm in this situation I'll come back doesn't mean I won't ff instead of praying for a miracle.

her is a story from me then. i was on my gold 5 promos( i was going to get gold 5 if i won this game) i was 2-1 on my promos am a jungle player but i wanted to play mid this game idk why, and thats what i did i played yasuo mid and i inted i was like 2-6 our hole team was losing. they had a fed talon and kha kha got caught and we had a team fight. we killed them all but talon survived. so we started pushing(our mid was already pushing but tehy had all mid towers standing) so we started going throught all of there mid towers. we took a tower in like 4 sec and moved on to the next one. we got to there inhib and talon was there.(the others are spawning in 15-25 sec) talon inted, he tried to 1v5 but died instanly and this lost them the game after talon died we just took there nexus towers down and they respawned. so it was this really stress full moment of life and death everyone was autoing the nexus while the enemy team was colapsing on us and nearly killed 2 of us but we still got the nexus and won the game. with 1 team kill we won the game. we took everything from the outer mid tower to tehre nexus in just about 30 sec and won the game
