I will have a 50% of getting a "missfortune support main" in my team, and I can not dodge because peomo, and I will probably lose the game, and I fail my promo.

I hate ROX Gorilla.

LP doesn't matter, and neither do promos. Never use promos as an excuse to not dodge a match that is not in your favor to play. You are already handicapped in promos facing tougher competition with weaker teammates, there is no reason to ADD to the factors going against you by allowing trolls, troll picks, toxic players, tilted players, low win rate premades, or other red flag circumstances to determine whether or not you lose MMR, which is the only thing that matters below D1.

i do want that victorious maokai skin tho, I like maokai quite a lot but never felt like buying any of his skins, getting a free skin will be nice.

You got 2 weeks left to get there. Put your nose to the grind stone and make it happen. You can get there if you apply proper climbing technique and focus on your win rate and MMR exclusively.

I am making the preparations to sacrifice a Teemo to the gods of Matchmaking for you right now. Give me about 5 minutes to complete the ritual, and if you are worthy, the gods of Matchmaking will be appeased by the offering and bless you with smurfs for teammates.

Best of luck mate.

This might also work, but the Ritual is complete. The teemo has been sacrificed. The Gods of Matchmaking are preparing to determine your fate as we speak.

OMG I actually saw that game, but sadly only the last 1 minute. After it was done, I was listening to the commentators and then I glanced across to the right pane. It took me a while to realize MF was the supp. I was like, OMFG, I'm gonna be seeing this bullshit in my games now.

They played it twice in a row and won them both in convincing fashion. Although the Ashe pick had more to do with it than the MF pick. The mf was only picked to out harass and zone the Zyra in lane phase. That comp was all about the Ashe arrow picks in mid and late game and Pray proved why he is the absolute best Ashe player in the world in those 2 matches. That one turn around 2v4 fight in top lane that pray cleaned up basically by himself, out numbered, was simply sick. It was incredible to watch.

Easily the best series in League of Legends history. I highly recommend you watch all 5 matches. It was brilliant stuff from both teams and it seemed to come down to player stamina in the end as Rox clearly looked to be tiring toward the end of the series. Physical fitness is important, even for Esports athletes.

Ah. Nice summary. I'll definitely check them out.

I think Bang flashing into Baron pit into 4 people for dps and end up surviving while enemy almost got aced was pretty sick too.

The prey 2v4...I blame it 100% on Blank for running back to team while getting aa by Ashe aa+Q and delivering hurricane shots to his team. Blank is totally boosted, it's a shame how Bengi need to get off the bench to clean up his mess.

Oh man, if smite had been available for Bengi on the Lee Sin Baron fight... oh wow would that have been a clean steal. It wasn't an ace though, I think the Jayce made it out alive, it was a 4 for nothing with Jayce JUST barely managing to secure the baron after Bengi solo'd Peanut to prevent the smite.

And blank... doing blank things... as usual. Lol. Man he's looked bad at worlds.

The DeckownerOct 22, 20161 votes

it was still SOOOO close tho, Bengi nearly got baron with the sonic wave but Bang's hurricane shots(I believe) took the bsron lower unintentionally. the karma made it out iirc, semb got gangbanged in the pit.

Blank doesn't deserve a world champion title, it was all faker and bengi plus a bit of bang.

Yeah actually now that I think about it this seems right, I believe it was the karma making it out not the jayce although it was the jayce shockblast that secured the baron. And Bengi's sonic wave didn't actually hit baron. For some inexplicable reason peanut, at slightly less than half hp, body blocked it and got almost immediately lee sin combo'd out of the pit to his death.

Faker didn't apply his advantage in lane to the side lanes in games 2 and 3. I think he finally said fuck this, me and bengi are just gonna do work in the side lanes, I can trounce Kuro's sorry ass all day long and it's gotten us no where, we gotta get our bot lane involved in these games.

The DeckownerOct 22, 20161 votes

I think Faker unable to pressure side lane is greatly influenced by his champion, Oriana and Viktor aren't really good roamers, and Kuro always play champion with safe shoving power with teleport meaning if Faker leave lane it is very likely that the tower will take substantial amount of damage.

It has a lot to do with the junglers too, usually it is the jungler who call for a play and the mid laner follows it, blank clearly isn't making any good calls.

This is why you need to have a reliable support main on your friend's list. I mostly play Soraka (got an S in my last two games on her) and Sona.

Is a 5.20:1 kda good?

You should ALWAYS duo for promos (more premades increases the handicap so keep it to two) since you are handicapped already and one person adding to the handicap won't mean much, but the ability to use THEIR dodge to avoid a bad lobby situation can preserve your promo status. Always use a duo who is not currently in promos when you play your promos so you can take advantage of the free get out of jail card. Never play promos solo.
