#A Corporate Matter Episode: I Paid Good Money For This Champ And I Demand Free Wins

Kaisa "I want a refund."

LeeSin "I'm sorry, who are you?"

Kaisa "Kai'Sa, your newest champion."

LeeSin "Oh right right, how are you enjoying the league life?"

Kaisa "It sucks."

LeeSin "Congrats, you are getting the real experience."

Kaisa "No I'm not! Everyone else always has at least one week to dominate blind-pick before they get nerfed. Hell, Zoe got three months. But me, I'm complete trash. I paid good money to be in this game and I demand to have my time being broken."

LeeSin "Now, I know some people think I let champions into the game overpowered so everyone buys them; that's not true. It used to be, but it turns out that people will just buy them anyway. So it really doesn't matter if you're broken or not."

Kaisa "Then why don't you buff me!?"

LeeSin "Because, if I buffed you so soon, I would be admitting I made a mistake. And we can't have people thinking that, now can we? Besides, your kit will be toxic as hell if it's broken. Just wait a few years for your eventual rework, just like everyone else."

Kaisa "Then I want a refund. There is no way I am waiting that long to be played. Especially not when I had to pay that ridiculous price to be here in the first place."

LeeSin "Wait, you're serious about the money thing? Wow, he's actually charging to be here now. Talk about taking a dump on the poor. I'm sorry, the only one who can give you a refund is Corporate Mundo. And I've only seen him do it once."

Kaisa "Oh yeah, what made him do that?"

LeeSin "It was after we botched the trundle rework. He was quite fond of that little troll. I think he almost sympathized with players back then."

Kassadin "Knock knock." "Sorry I'm late, daylight savings messed me up. CURSE YOU GOVERNMENT!"

LeeSin "Kassadin, what are you doing here?"

Kassadin "I'm here to help my daughter get what she needs."

LeeSin "You're his daughter? I thought you died when you were a child."

Kassadin "I know right, I could have sworn I saw her get eaten by that monster. Torn to shreds, her screams are still burned into my memory. Must have been another one of those hallucinations."

LeeSin "You know, it's weird. Her accent is so different from yours. And she looks absolutely nothing like y-"

Kaisa "Kicks Lee Sin under the desk." "Have a seat next to me, daddy. I could really use your help convincing this nice man to give me what I want."

Kassadin "Sure thing sweety. You know, this reminds me of when you were little. We had this puppy. You wanted me to help you train him. Do you remember his name?"

Kaisa "No daddy, I'm sorry, I can't remember."

Kassadin "It's alright, you've been through a lot. You called him Koggles."

Kaisa "Oh yes, I remember now, I hope he lived a happy life without me."

Kassadin "He got sucked into the void when you did."

Kaisa "Oh yeah, right."

Kassadin "You see, my baby has had some memory issues since she got back. I found her alone on the street. We didn't even recognize each other at first. But thankfully, I knew she needed help and brought her back to my house. I told her about my wealth. That all I wanted was my daughter back so I had someone to give it all to. Somehow, that triggered a memory deep in her subconscious. Because she then remembered that she was my daughter. And I knew it was true."

LeeSin "Uh huh. Well, as I explained to your daughter, there is no way I can-"

Kassadin "Leans across Corporate Lee Sin's desk." "Listen here Mr. Corporate man. You are going to give my little girl everything she wants and more. Or I am going to shove this Nether Blade so far up your ass you'll taste purple. Understand?"

LeeSin "You know, I am nerfing support items in a hotfix. I might be able to squeeze something in for Kai'Sa."

Kassadin "That's a good man. Well, I have Voidborn to go kill. I hope I won't have to come back here. See you tonight, sweety." "Leaves."

Kaisa "Thanks for your help, daddy! You ever tell him about what you think you know and you'll do a whole lot more than taste purple." "Also leaves."

LeeSin "This job has taken so much from me. My wife, my social life, my arm. I think my hair is even starting to fall out. How did I ever get myself into this position."

Janna "You're greedy. And don't you even try and blame what happened to your arm on this job. You know damn well it was your womanizing ways that led to that."

LeeSin "You suck as a secretary."

Janna "I'd like to see you do any of this without me."

Xayah Rakan Well that was unexpected. ~9 months between the first time, now only ~2 months.

Terozu3/12/2018, 9:06:12 PM2 votes

Why is Xayah's portrait flipped?

Avatorn3/13/2018, 5:40:44 AM2 votes

um, why is Yasuo a "10/10" difficulty?

By comparison:

Aurelian Sol: 7/10 Xayah: 5/10 Kassadin & Syndra: 8/10

I can agree with all of those 4 (Xayah may be a tad low), but TEN/TEN Yasuo difficulty.

Maybe these guys should write reviews for IGN. They'll give anything a 10 (e.g., Celeste).

When I made this series two years ago, I myself found it really funny. And so did some others on the following forum. I'd known that stories have been posted on free champ rot. for a while, and I few days ago, i thought: Why not my stories?

"A Corporate Matter." Thank you for taking the weekly time to make these stories, as I am starting. I've read through your entertaining stories for the past few weeks and they really brighten up my day.

Before reading this story, please read through the ENTIRE forum. This is it's origin. https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/miscellaneous/sHABUBMx-ezreal-and-taric?show=flat

YouTube Channel: NukeConnon(nonprofit, as of now) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpnruGge_SBBKZQtC28Uriw?view_as=subscriber

Yes I'm planning on youtubing league even though I haven't played in a while.

Scenario I So how can Ezreal love Lux, Lux love Ezreal, Taric love Lux, Lux love Taric, Taric love Ezreal, and Ezreal love Taric. It just doesn't make sense. And then Garen comes in and everyone gets killed except for a sobbing Lux obviously. Lux Oh come on, can't it just be Ezreal and I. Ekko (passing by) Uh...what? Who are you talking to? Ezreal Oh! Um...was I supposed to pitch in? Ekko Uh...awkward...I'll just be out of here (chronobreaks away)

Meanwhile...

League of Legends (LOL) Question Answer (QA) Center starring...

Azir Azir, Emperor of Shurima, and boss of the LOL QA Center.

Problem 1 Question: Ekko has chronobreaked to his exact location a few moments ago, which is outer space. INFO-http://boards.eune.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/champions-gameplay-en/wvcKgGEJ-ekko-should-vanish-and-die-everytime-he-ults-and-here-is-why Azir Answer: Send a spaceship and rescue that poor fellow.

Problem 2 Q: Everyone on planet Earth wants to play you Azir. Azir Answer: Ugh, this is going to take a while.

Problem 3 Q: Taric's gem shop is constantly annoying people. Azir Answer: WTF OF A QUESTION IS THAT? TARIC'S GEM SHOP? I QUIT THIS JOB!

A while later...

Ekko (getting out of spaceship) Whew! Thank you guys for saving me! Kayle No problem! Ekko Hey, where's the boss here? Kayle Oh, he quit the job. Ekko Can I be the boss here now? Kayle Sure, though you might find it a little hard going, such as... Taric Hey guys! Check out my gem shop! It's tru- Nasus :3

Come back next week for another scenario!

Scenario VI [Invasion of League of Legends Question Answer Center]

A few hours after Scenario V...

(In a Hospital)

Lux stirs from unconsciousness

Garen Lux! Are you alright?

Ezreal Whew! You finally came to.

Taric Uh...okay Ezreal. Lux, you okay?

Lux Um...ya.

Garen Okay, we're here for you.

Ezreal Ya, if you need anything, just ask.

Taric Uhm...ya, we're always ready to help you Lux.

Meanwhile, with Ekko...

Ekko What shall I do for fun today? Hmm...I know! I'm going to take over LOL QA Center! Mwahahahahah!

Ekko teleports to LOL QA Center's front desk

Kayle Oh! You startled me there former LOL QA Center boss Ekko. Good day, how may I help you?

Ekko Uh...shoot, I wasn't expecting such a warm welcome. How am I going to have the will to do it now.

Kayle No need to flatter me! It's okay, though, I have plenty of time for your request.

Ekko Uhm...okay, I got this self. Can't chicken out now. Uh...Surrender the LOL QA Center or face the awesome wrath of I!

Kayle No need for such a harsh tone. If you want to lead LOL QA Center, you may request the current LOL QA Center boss, Lux. Unless you take it by force.

Ekko Um...I take it by force.

Kayle I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS!! IN HONOR OF THE LOL QA CENTER, YOU SHALL PAY FOR THIS!!! (Charges Ekko)

Ekko At least I got the fun I wanted to! Yolo! Aah!! (Half-heartedly charges as well)

Back at the Hospital...

Lux Oh no, LOL QA Center is under attack! I can feel it!

Garen What would you like us to do?

Ezreal We'll help as best as we can!

Taric Um...ya.

Lux As LOL QA Center boss, I must defend it!

Garen You mustn't. Rest. We'll handle it. No worries little sister.

Garen Let's get Zed to help.

Taric Um...okay...I'll look for Zed, Ezreal.

Zed (Emerges from the shadows) Here to readily repay my debt to you all and more.

Garen Um okay...uh...can you check on LOL QA Center?

Zed Sure thing! Anything else?

Garen Just that, for now.

Zed Right away. (Melts into the shadows)

Meanwhile at LOL QA Center, Kayle and Ekko are engrossed in an intense fight

Both are in melee comabt Kayle using her sword and Ekko is Z-Drive and both casting abilites on each other and dashing around to dodge their opponent’s abilities.

Suddenly, Kayle runs her sword through Ekko, and then kicks him away

Kayle Cease your hostility, before I follow through to your death!

Ekko Ahahahah (laughs casually). I feel like I’m cheating; this was too easy. (Chronobreaks to Kayle, regaining his HP and gravely injuring Kayle.)

Kayle Groan! You cheater!

Ekko Yup, I’m definitely a cheater, even in my standards. But at least I took over LOL QA Center...uh...by force.

Kayle Also, just another note, when Lux comes around, and she will, she can and will challenge you.

Ekko Well just more fun as the LOL QA Center boss that’s uh...once again...taken LOL QA Center by force.

Suddenly, Zed emerges from the Shadows

Ekko OK! THAT’S IT! YOU’VE MADE THIS KIND OF GLORIOUS DAY FOR ME INTO AN UGLY ONE BECAUSE YOU APPEARED!! UNLIKE KAYLE, YOU’LL REALLY BE FACING MY WRATH!! (Hostility between them from Scenario II)

Zed At least Ezreal could’ve been more specific about what was hapening here! More to do to repay my debts at least!

Ekko FOR ZED CONTAMINATING TODAY!!! (Charges Zed)

Zed Um...for my debts! (Half-heartedly Charges Ekko)

Ekko and Zed engage in an even more intense battle that the last

Zed Oof! (Gets whacked by Ekko’s Z-Drive) Okay! That’s it, let’s actually fight!

Ekko SCREW YOU AND YOUR DARK FEELINGS!!

Zed Ouch.

Ekko’s Time Ghosts and Zed’s Shadows form gangs that also fight their equivalent opponents alongside the brawling Zed and Ekko.

Nevertheless Zed’s fighting skill, Ekko begins to wear down Zed with his rage

Back in the Hospital...

Lux Zed, he’s losing the fight! I can feel the darkness giving way to the fiery blue rage!

Garen We’ll take care of this ourselves Lux!

Ezreal I guess it’s time we fight whatever is attacking LOL QA Center. For you, Lux.

Taric Um...I’ll help you fight, Ezreal.

Lux No, I have stalled to long and the situation has become dire! As LOL QA Center boss, I must fulfill my righteous duty as the last line off defense for my subjects! (Teleports away in a flash of light)

Garen NO!! LUX!! WHY DID YOU LEAVE US BEYOND OUR HELP!!!

Ezreal She said she was going to LOL QA Center! Hurry lets’ go!

Garen WE’RE GOING TO BE THERE FOR YOU LUX!!!

Taric Sure thing, Ezreal.

Garen, Ezreal, and Taric run for the LOL QA Center.

At LOL QA Center, Ekko deals a Final Knockout Blow to Zed.

Zed AUGH!! (Gets a Knockout Hit) pant pant

Ekko NOW, TO KILL YOU IN THE MOST BRUTAL WAY POSSIBLE!!!

Lux appears in a Flash of Light

Lux Evildoer, you shall be stopped!

Ekko What!? I’ve been cheated upon! I guess it’s fair because I kind of cheated, but only kind of!

Lux I shall prevent you from causing further wrongdoing! DEMACIA!!! (Ults)

Ekko Ugh, this is gonna hurt. Can I kill Zed at least?

Zed Wait, Lux! This is going to hurt me too!

BOOM!!!!!

The dust clears...

Ekko Ugh. I’m pretty hurt, but I’m also pretty annoyed as well. (Pulls cord on timebelt and disappears in a flash of light)

Zed Groan. Great, I just got the opposite of last time (Scenario IV). Um, Lux, you happen to have any darkness?

Lux Oh! Can’t believe I’m saying this, but sorry Zed! Didn’t see you there! Thanks for being on our side though!

Zed Much debt payed off is very nice, but I’d like this pain to stop now.

Lux Ya, sorry, um...I’ve only got light?

Zed Okay, no worries, I’ll just go off to a dark place. (Creates shadow hole and sinks in)

Lux Kind of wanted to do more for him than that…

Garen, Ezreal, and Taric get to LOL QA Center...

Garen Lux! We’re here! What do you need us to assist you in!?

Lux Well, I defeated the oppresor myself.

Ezreal You could’ve just told us you really wanted to defend LOL QA Center, then we could’ve gone in together.

Taric Um...ya, I guess.

Lux Sorry, I was just really headstrong then. Thanks for coming though. Oh no! I almost forgot! Kayle, are you alright!?

Kayle Ofcourse, boss. Escpecially when you’ve come to save the day.

Lux Thanks! I’ve put my passion into this. You’ve taught me so much of what it means to be the boss of LOL QA Center!

Kayle I will always be willing to do more for you anytime, boss.

Taric Well now that Ezreal, is satisfied...oh no! How’s it going at my Gem Shop?

Nasus :3

Come Back Next Week for Another Scenario!

When I am choosing a champion Rakan doesn't appear under free champs, but when I am banning he does. This feels like a problem.

I expected Kai'Sa to be on the list. I thought new champions are on the free rotation the week after they are released.
