I just lost a ranked game. And I don't even care.

This has got to be one of the most awesome games I've ever played. It doesn't matter that we lost. It was still awesome.

Everyone was at or near full build. It lasted 52 minutes. Here's the game, but that doesn't fully express the awesomeness of it.

At the beginning of the game, top, bot, and jungle were losing. Only Ahri was winning lane. We lost a lot of our towers, and were behind a huge amount of kills. Then, something miraculous happened. We started winning teamfights. We eventually managed to take a few more towers. Then, they took Baron. They tried to push us back, but we managed to kill most of them and take an inhib and our first Dragon. They took Baron again. We kept defending. They got one of our inhibitors, and a fifth Dragon. That still wasn't enough to defeat us. It took them Three Barons to win, and we still had a chance the whole time.

I'd just like to thank Riot for creating a game where stuff like this can happen.

I hate it when people get sick of the long games and just quick or try to QQ. IMO, the long games, where everyone is full build, are by far the best games, as it feels like your moves really count. One mistake, and you could be gone for 60+ seconds, which depending on who you are on the team, could flat lose the game. It's a fun sort of tension.

God I wish I would stop winning games so early with my RekSai (granted, she does fall off hard). Maybe I should stop taking the entire enemy top lane to the inhib (Literally had a game where, with no assistance from my team whatsoever, I killed the enemy Gnar 7 times, and got their inhibitor at 20 minutes. The game didn't last to 25)

Those games really are awesome. When your whole team sort of syncs into a rythm and you're not sure how, but things just start working. You're not unstoppable, but you're a much bigger contender than you feel like you should be in the game.
