Idc about ks. Here's why...

I cannot tell you how sick I am of hearing people bitch about ks. I get ks'd all the time. I never bitch about it. Not once. Why?

1: It's all about the big W. It sounds like a dick move to say this when I'm Wu, but, seriously, it's just about winning.

Someone comes in and gets "my kill"? Thanks for the assist. Because I can't tell you how many times OP champs have gotten away from me with tiny slivers of health, or how many times I've seen that happen to others when I could have done something. I'm not taking the chance. Not even if it looks like a sure thing. I'm gonna do everything in my power to overkill the sure thing.

Because it isn't about me. It's about the team and the overall goal.

2: The group I typically run with has no problem with it. We all know and agree to do whatever it takes. I’ve grown used to that. We’re there to play, and help each other get better. Which leads me to my next point…

3: Whether I do well or poorly, I’ve always got some butthurt flamer shouting about ks or cs or objectives. I’m just gonna play, do my best, and mute and block if anyone gets obnoxious.

If all you have to say to me is, “ks”, or “u suk”, with no specific, constructive criticism, I will absolutely make you stop talking to me. Period.

Speaking of...

4: I’m somewhat new. New enough that I’ve never been ranked. So yeah, I often don’t know what I’m doing. But I don’t have time to become an expert on something that I’m just trying to have fun with. Lastly...

5: At the end of the day, it's just a game. My worth as a person does not hinge on how well I do here. I should hope the same goes for everyone else. Because the alternative is just sad.

If the best thing about your life is being able to make made-up computer renderings do a thing good, I feel sorry for you.

All that said, if this angers you, and you want to report and block me? Do it. Please and thank you. Because a) I have other ways of having fun, and other things to do. I’m already generally happy. I don’t need a game for that. So, if they ban me, no skin off my bones. b) You are not someone I’m interested in playing with anyway.

If you agree, or are generally ambivalent, feel free to friend me. Let’s fsu and have fun. :-)

To many people attach personal value to their "K/D". I'm especially fond of the "You're 0/4" argument aimed at someone with 20 assists and a 94% Kill Participation as a method to attack them. You shouldn't ever worry about people like that. Their mentality will always make them trash and you will surpass them anyway.

Talon mid vs Ahri. Ahri lands a charm+ignite and her entire rotation, I'm super low, closer to her turret than mine, and I won't make it out of her range before dying, so I do the logical thing and ult WQ auto her. Bursts her down to like 5%, she kills me, is bleeding, my jungler comes out of Fog and just one-shots her.

My bleed would've killed her anyways, but hey, you know what, good for you Kha'zix. More gold to the team, I'm happy with an assist.
