#A Corporate Matter Episode: Windspeaker's Gnaring.

Gnar "Air, air, who wants to be able to control air. I mean, what can you even do with that. Make someone slightly cold?"

Soraka "I don't know, but Yasuo sure makes it look hot. Whatever it is."

Yasuo "Did someone call me?"

Gnar "Oh good, we finally made it to the top of this mountain. So, let me guess, you are my cloud teacher?"

Yasuo "Yep, me and my little sparrow here."

Taliyah "Why do you keep calling me sparrow anyways. It makes no sense. I throw rocks, I move the earth. Last time I checked, sparrows don't do any of that. Sparrows have something to do with wind and stuff. Which fits you, not me."

Yasuo "I call you sparrow because your whole outfit face and hair. It reminds me of a sparrow. I thought that was obvious."

Taliyah "Oh, that makes a lot more sense. And I find that a bit racist."

Yasuo "Not everything is racist, jeez. You see what I have to deal with, why did Rito have to make me your teacher. Besides, you can control wind, you have just got to believe."

Taliyah "I don't think that's how it works. I control rocks, and sometimes ice. Having cloud powers makes no sense."

Yasuo "You can fly, believe Taliyah."

Taliyah "But i...i...i-"

Yasuo "Just, believe."

Taliyah "Fine, I will go believe over there."

Gnar "Uh, I should probably give you the usual warning. I have no actual powers, and am just in this for the treasure."

Yasuo "No problem. I don't have any either, it's all in the sword. Follow, we can go to Riven's rent a Windblade."

Soraka "By the way, why does it smell like rotten eggs here?"

Yasuo "It's hard to explain. Just don't light any fires, or we might all blow up."

Riven "Welcome to Riven's rent a Windblade. We have brand new, broken, and reforged Windblades here. No skill of any form required, full face mash functionality. Get from Bronze to Gold in thirty days or your money back."

Garen "Garenteed!"

Yasuo "Yes, we will take one just like mine. Only a one-day rental, just need it for his training. Thanks."

Gnar "Ooooh, shiny new sword."

Sona "..."

Soraka "It is so much more than a pointy stick. It's so full of beauty and history. It's almost as if whoever forged it left a part of his soul in it. A true honor to behold."

Gnar "I wonder how I could sell it for back home."

Soraka "You two are exactly what's wrong with this millennial generation. None of you have any class."

Sona "..."

Soraka "I don't care how old you are. None of us have been around longer than 2009, which makes us all millennials."

Yasuo "Alright young Gnardiwan, let's start your training."

One intense training montage with inspiring music later:

Gnar "Look, I can make air scooters. And run around super fast like-" "Runs into pillar."

Sona "..."

Soraka "Yeah, it did."

Taliyah "HEY MASTER, YOU WERE RIGHT. I JUST HAD TO BELIEVE I COULD FLY. WOOOOOOOOOO, THIS IS SO FUN! HI CLOUD DRAGON, HOW ARE YOU DOING?"

Yasuo "HEY, BE CAREFUL YELLING UP THERE, SOUNDS TRAVELS DIFFERENTLY AND IT MIGHT CAUSE AN-"

An avalanche begins rolling down the mountain.

Yasuo "NO, NOT AGAIN!" "Gets buried by a mountain of snow."

Gnar "Choryon!." "Summons a windwall that protects Corporate Gnar, Sona and Soraka from the avalanche."

Gnar "Wow, wind is more powerful than I thought."

Taliyah "MASTER NOOOOOO! Why does this always happen to me? Let me unbury you." "Begins digging frantically."

Gnar "So like, should we wait over there or-"

Taliyah "Your training here is complete, as long as you make me free this week. Just go, I can handle this. Leave the Windblade there."

Meanwhile:

Nasus "Come on kid, I know you saw him. Tell me where the Eldertar went, or I will throw you in the Wukong pit."

Annie "Ashes ashes, we all fall down."

Nasus "Fine then." "Throws child into pit."

KogMaw "Oh deary me. Did you really throw that kid in there? That's a little far, even for us."

Nasus "Yeah, you are probably right. I just got a little upset. Oh well, nothing we can do for her now. And it's not like I can be held accountable for my actions anyways. Back to the ship!"

Annie "Come here wittle monkey, Tibbers would wove you."

MonkeyKing "Oh no no, not after what happened to my friend's cousin. I see what you are doing and I am not falling for it. Just back away, don't come any closer. Oh, dear Rito!" "Runs away screaming in terror."

KogMaw "Hello yes, I am calling the coppers. A small infant is in the Wukong den, no, I do not know how it got in there. There appears to be a lot of screaming, and everyone is recording it on their cellular devices. Please send someone."

Jhin "It's go time."

I’ll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you’re using here: it didn’t require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn’t earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don’t take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew what you had you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you’re selling it, you want to sell it.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Lies, most of Shyvana's damage is in her abilities. I can build straight AD on her and still get more magic damage than physical.

I am wondering how champion difficulties are rated? How can Sona be '4' in difficulty? Her ult is not that hard to land...
