Friend: You're not mechanically good enough to get to gold. Me: What the fu-

Am I supposed to clap now?

....congrats you got fed on a burst assassin carry

I mean I could do that on Soraka if I was that fed. It really doesn't mean much.

Being mechanically good doesn't mean you can just kill people, it means you can outplay them. Being fed AF and just stat checking them isn't outplaying them. It's running them over.
