@League community, Have you ever gotten a Pentakill?

Vesarixx··4 votes·5,475 views

So I run into threads on the boards quite frequently about how people have never gotten one, a lot of the comments are people who also haven't, so I've started wondering how many people have gotten a penta before and how many still haven't.

If you have gotten one and you have a story to go with it please post it in the comments.

  1. Varus Sniped 2 runners with my Q for the penta
  2. Pantheon Man dropped on a runner for the Penta
  3. Anivia Enemy team fountain dived me. I dropped ulti for instant penta.
  4. Katarina Pretty much everyone has this one... so hard to press E and R....
  5. Lucian Double Gat OP.
  6. Jinx Got it the first day she released, W was broke as shit.

My greatest and most favorite penta I've ever gotten was with Gangplank .

Back when Darius released, his ultimate permanently reset on kill. During a teamfight Darius and I both got Quadra's. We were both going in for the penta and each had like 20 hp. As soon as i was in range Darius pressed R, and i auto attacked. Like a suave mother fucker GP decided i would crit that shot. I reached for my gun, pointed, and blew Darius away right before his damage actually hits. Shit was so cash.

That's one crazy moment for the Gangplank Penta, worthy of the highlight reel for sure

Sadly, that game was my first penta ever, and is the entire reason i record my games now. None of my other penta's have really been impressive enough to keep. They're all just chasing down runners

Yeah, I wish I had a recording of one of mine, the one with Ashe, my team was behind and a fight broke out top lane, I just got a pretty nice power spike though because of an item and the enemy Jayce was too far away to respond quickly enough, the team fight went pretty even, we actually went 4 for 5, with 3 members of my team getting hit by a tibbers stun I narrowly avoided, but I managed to take out the first 4 enemies just before Jayce finished off Braum, I still had my arrow since Jayce was the most fed member of the enemy team and if we couldn't CC him he would wreck us, I hit him at a pretty good range to get enough of a stun to chunk him, and kited it out for the penta, we went 4 for 5 but it renewed the teams spirit and the shutdown gold from Jayce helped us catch back up. That fight unlocked the frelyord quest with the enemy Sejuani, I managed to get the kill on her in the next team fight, with us only losing 1 person. So I got an Ice crown and we were able to push down mid and win the game off of that. One of the most memorable games I've ever played.

Twice.

First one was with Miss Fortune, it was way back in Season 1 or something and I don't really remember it partly because the announcer didn't even call it, I only knew about it because the other team started to allchat about it.

Second one was epic. Was playing Varus on Ascension, we were a whopping 70 points behind. Desperate and our backs against the wall we got ascended, well I did. I then went pro-mode and started smashing so much face it eventuating in a pentakill. I was eventually killed but it clicked with the rest of the team that I was kinda big so I was given the next ascension when we did it and I continued on to wreck face. We ended up winning by a single point, by far the most amazing game of League i've ever played and why Ascension was by far my most favorite game mode in the game. Plus not only did the announcer call the penta-kill this time but it was also the first day of the new multi-kill visuals! This is the game that makes me mad Riot never implemented replays. >:(

Getting a Penta and winning the game by 1 point, sounds like quite an exhilarating match

Primadonna2 votes

I've only gotten two pentakills.

My first one was as Katarina in a bot game. My second one was as Caitlyn in Legend of the Poro King or whatever that Snowdown game was called. Still trying to get one in a SR normal or ranked.

Rico Nasty1 votes

Yup. 1 pentakill with Karma , 2 pentakills with Akali , 1 pentakill with Jinx .

Vesarixx2 votes

1 with Sona

my first ranked penta was with quinn.

had to ult to get it,t he guy was running.

Vesarixx1 votes

Usually have to chase 1 or 2 people down, it's not as satisfying if they just give you the kill, you need to earn it.

tifas left elbow1 votes

Nope. item 3070 Amumu item 3070 Plenty of quads, but never a penta.

Vesarixx2 votes

Keep trying and you'll get one eventually

Chromatic Eagle1 votes

Anyone think there should be a way to record your pentakills? They're hard to recall from memory.

Vesarixx1 votes

We need that recording system

Garlyle Wilds1 votes

I've gotten a handful, mostly in featured game modes though. Or ARAMs, which are at the least far more frequent a ground to see pentakills occur on.

Hell, in one game of ARAM I got two separate Pentas with Fiddlesticks

Vesarixx1 votes

Yeah there seems to be a lot more in ARAM, 3/4 of mine were in ARAM as well.

Stars Shaper1 votes

I had it 2 times.

My first was as first time Cassio in ARAM and I still don't know what happened xD I just saw the Pentakill thing popping out.

The second one was with Azir pre-fix when my team managed to set a teamfight in the jungle and I walled in every1 except for a Zed that tried to escape through bushes who I had to follow up and blind charge soldiers at. Priceless.

SexyTaylorSwift1 votes

I think I did. How would I know, though?

Vesarixx1 votes

probably just from memory, it tends to stick with you

I got a 4v1 Baron Steal with Vayne, got the quadra, then found the enemy adc and got a penta lol

Vesarixx1 votes

Penta+Baron, definite style points on that one.

EvilMerodach1 votes

Karthus , AD Karthus. ...back when item 3077 was stack-able and usable on ranged champions. (anyone remember tiamat tuesday?? Sivir numero uno!) And Karthus's wall lowered enemy armor. Didn't even use q,e, or even R. Just W and straight up auto'd everyone to death.

Also think I've gotten one or two with fidds and maybe chogath?

But the ad karth took the cake in memory lane.

Only Play Darius1 votes

Wait hold up.

Why was Tiamat stackable, and why was it available for ranged champs?

And why the hell did the wall lower armor? We all know damn well that Karthus isn't designed to do AD damage.

LoL's been through some strange stuff in early days. Tiamat didn't upgrade either so it still kinda sucked. But if you got super fed and build 5 of them, it got pretty funny with the waveclear+kill 3 champs without even targeting 2 of them. AD Karthus still wasn't good (I got super lucky/underestimated with the penta -read as ~calculated,) but the Ar reduction was nice for Karth support (you wall, adc goes to werk on super slow/vuln enemy)

Side note- item 3068 used to stack too. Like as in you could have 6 and do 6 ticks of burn every second. Also Twitch used to have a 60 second stealth, and it worked with sunfire...all 6 of them, without de-stealthing him. You could burn people to death just by walking past. eww what's that smell??

Only Play Darius1 votes

60 Second stealth and unrestricted item stacking? Wow League is really a shadow of it's former self at this point. The old days sounded really fun.

KayVaugn1 votes

I've never gotten a penta on SR :( I have gotten two pentas in Aram though so do they still count as penta's? Not quite sure myself.

My first ever penta was with Darius in aram and then my last and only other penta was a few months ago with Malzahar also in aram. Not sure if any of that counts :p

Vesarixx1 votes

ARAM is vs other players, so it still counts

GuilIermo1 votes

So

I've gotten 3 pentas with Katarina (7 if you count smurfing, got 3 in one game on my smurf) 2 with Diana 1 with Vladimir 2 with Lucian 1 withDraven 1 with TwistedFate Only 1 with Yisus MasterYi 1 with See Lin LeeSin 1 with VarusVarus 3 with CaitlynCaitlyn 1 with Fizz 3 with JinxJinx on EUW 1 with Leblanc And last but not least 6 pentakills with Season 3 TristTristana

My only good story was with Trist/Kat I got a pentakill with both of them by just jumping around ,and nothing else. Just Shunpo and Rocket Jump

Puri Puri Taric1 votes

facerolled on the keyboard with akali got a penta rly boring

SSLRranma1 votes

First Penta was a Penta steal. Big team fight with me as lux, Karthus is using his ult as the enemy is running away. I have boots of swiftness and didn't get hit in the fight thanks to the long range. Q 2 of them half a second before karthus uses his ult, W another for a kill then finales funkeln the other two.

edit: Get swiftness and mobility boots confused all the time. Fixed

Vesarixx1 votes

I'm picturing the Karthus trying to claim you stole all 5 kills in his penta, lol

EkkoFroffles1 votes

Aside from a co-op penta, the closest I've come is a quadra in a ranked match with Wukong where I just couldn't carry hard enough to win.

Do you have a favorite one though?

Actually... I do and it was with Kat but it was a very fun one.

Was at baron pit and I had placed a ward inside the pit and on the outside/back part. Enemy was doing it and I went it, full combo, got one kill, then I shunpu onto ward outside of it. Since I had a reset there I threw q back over the wall got a kill, shunpu to ward over wall, and q/w another guy. Then I jumped back over and I was really low. The last two guys flashed over wall to get me, I q/w as they did it then killed one and shunpu again into baron pit. The last one was an ez and he e/q back into pit and just before the Q could get me I had zhonya and then baron killed him for me. I shunpu back over wall to not die to baron in the end with the pentakill.

Long story to explain but it all happen in less than 10 seconds and I really wanted to destroy my recording program for not getting that match.

Vesarixx1 votes

Yeah, it's like the recording software is built to skip games where you get a penta or something.

retnirp1 votes

I don't know if ARAM counts, but I got one once as Ashe (s3 or early s4) after my team swore up and down that 1) we lost and 2) ashe was useless.

Vesarixx1 votes

Old Ashe was far from useless, I actually preferred the old Ashe tbh.

Since everyone seems very passionate about their Pentas, I will do the same. <3 I'll just mention my favorite Shyvana Pentakill.
(Photo below to validate crazy story)

Was one of the craziest matches yet. I was helping my team, soloing objectives getting everyone ahead. 28:00 in and I was 12/0. Enemy team was screaming "DRAGON WON'T DIE!". At the 28:00 min mark was when the whole enemy team was going bot to do a 5-man gank and obliterate our ADC and Supp.

2 enemies tried cutting off the escape of our ADC and Supp by going through the Tri-bush...where I was waiting. Bork, Hydra Proc, With a Q, one down. Dueled and immediately killed off the second. The other 3 grouped tight and managed to kite and take out 3 of my teammates while I was in the backline trying to go to frontline (I was still far away).

Only me and our ADC was left and they were movement clicking for their life while on 2 bars of health. Knowing I had to save them, I flash ultied Xerath to stop his Ult from going off to land the final blow on the ADC. Xerath immediately flashed out while I destroyed his 2 allies.

W'ing and used burnout to search for that Xerath near his blue. Time running low before I'd lose the Penta. I screeched in all-chat: "COME. HERE. NAOOOOOOOOO"

I quickly thought, "I gotta do something stupid to draw him out. I ran in and started beating on their inner bot tower to draw aggro...no minion support being anywhere nearby. (Any Xerath would fall into this bait- as he is at a distance, I have un-needed tower aggro on me, and he can easily snipe me out)

Team had started the surrender vote and I saw 4/0 vote count. 4 seconds left on the clock before the game was over. Out of nowhere Xerath Pops out from behind the tower with a charged Q. I juke the Q skillshot while tower aggro still on me, proc the Hydra Q, W, and 2 autos...and I get the Penta just as the game ended.

<3 ...exhilarating...

Vesarixx2 votes

I thought you meant your team was starting a surrender vote, probably because I've had that happen, I get rediculously far ahead on Vlad and my team surrenders even if I can 1v5. pretty cool penta story, even ended it with a perfect KDA

I think I've had 5 or 6, at least. It's definitely uncommon for me, and more so as I climb (I play ranked almost exclusively now), but not impossible.
