One of the most rewarding experiences in a game for me

Linna Excel·May 4, 2015·1 votes·723 views

I know how everyone talks about how pentakills are. I know it's cool to get one, I've had a few in ARAM. If there's one thing I think is almost as good and less luck dependent is going through a game without getting killed. I dunno if it's just me, but not dying is a huge relief and a bit of an accomplishment as well. Figure, if you die 5 times, that's giving the other team a BF sword or a rod. So by not dying, you are denying them a lot of gold while racking up kills and assists yourself.

I just went 5-0-13 on Ahri and it felt great.

I don't think I've ever had a game where I never died.

Play safe, play smart, and it'll happen eventually.

It's a good way to win.

Just don't forget to pull out before you explode. That's how you keep that 0 death count.

Mind out of the gutter, peeps.

Never dying is great. As an added bonus to being a good way to win, it also means your KDA will always be better than your allies'. anything/0= infinity.

What exactly do tanks have to strive for? Not only is getting a penta very difficult on a tank (as well as not being something they should be trying to do...), it's also kind of their job to die first in teamfights (as if the enemies focus the tank, that gives your dps time to focus something else).

perhaps to do their job in team fights yet escape alive, with >5% hp. Not easy and no stat will pat you on the back, but you know what you did :D

Was that a bug, or do kills not trigger the impact/end the charge?

Laughing FishMay 4, 20151 votes

It was being tested on PBE, but to the best of my knowledge even if a unit dies it breaks the charge.

What if you never die AND get a pentakill in the same game?

Then you had an awesome game.

Personally I think dying a few times is okay. It means you're participating in fights and giving it your all (most likely, unless you're just getting picked). Of course if you can go through the whole game participating to your fullest without dying, that's obviously better.
