#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."

Beyond the Void: Season 1- Episode 22

SEASON FINALE.

Time. What a beautiful thing. It was the one intangible idea of life that had been taken away from Azir. There he was, lying breathless on the ground with blood everywhere. He was not dead, however. His eyes moved quickly as he tried to move, but couldn't. There was no help on the way and the ice began to spread more rapidly with each passing minute.

Four hours later...

Soraka and Rek'sai look for the building, but at this point it was hard to tell since half of Demacia was completely frozen.

RekSai "Whatever you need to do with that vial, you've gotta do it quick."

Soraka "Well, that just got a lot harder! How am I supposed to find this building when everything is all frozen?"

All of the sudden, Lissandra appears and shoves Soraka to the ground.

Lissandra "Looks like you're going to have another problem now!"

Lissandra started to form the ice shard in her hands when Rek'sai uses her wrath and cuts Lissandra multiple times with her tail. Rek'sai then grabs Lissandra and prepares the burrow.

Soraka "Wha- What the hell do you think you're doing?"

RekSai "I am going to get her as far away from here as possible. You go and get that vial to the building!"

Lissandra "Vial? WAIT! NOOOOOOOO!"

Rek'sai then charged up and sped away. Soraka stood up and walked towards the taller buildings, hoping to find something that may provide her information as to which building is the one. As she walked on, Demacia got a whole lot lonelier. The city of great power now turned into a complete ghost town. Then, out of the corner of her eye, Soraka saw golden armor and a bunch of red ice around it.

Soraka "Oh no! This can't be!"

She was right. There was Azir, laying lifeless under a thick sheet of ice. Soraka immediately knew that this was the building and started to climb her way to the roof using the little shards of ice here and there on the building. When she got to the top, she almost fell back down when she saw the frozen Gnar there. Luckily, she regained her balance and went to the center of the roof, where there was another dead body. Tahm Kench's body was also frozen, but emitted a nasty smell due to his rotting body. Soraka opened the vial and poured its contents onto the center of the roof. The ice then began to unfreeze, but at a very slow rate.

Soraka "Damn it! That was all the vial had! This day just keeps getting worse..."

Meanwhile in the hospital...

Jhin waking up "Ahhhh! So, what did I miss?"

Shaco packing his things into a bag quickly "Oh, you know, a whole ice storm that is about to turn us into ice. Look, I know you just woke up, but we need to get the f**k outta here!"

The room was a mess. Shaco's clothes were all over the place and the room smelled like rotten milk.

Jhin diguisted "Ugh! What is that smell?"

Shaco "Oh yeah, I stayed here for the duration of your ENTIRE F**KING COMA!!!"

Jhin "Now you're getting mad?"

Shaco "Ok, just need to take this backpack and burn the rest of these clothes!"

Jhin "BURN THEM?!?! Are you crazy? We can donate all of these clothes to the National Amumu Foundation!"

Shaco "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? THE NATIONAL AMUM-- That THING is a FKING SCAM!!! THE ONLY THING HE IS GOING TO DO IS BECOME FRIENDS WITH YOU AND THEN TAKE ALL OF YOUR FKING MONEY!!!"

Jhin "Calm down! What the hell has gotten into you? So what if it's the 'snowpocalypse'? Since when did we become scared of nature?"

Shaco "I don't care. We are leaving now!"

Shaco grabs Jhin and pulls him out of the bed. Then, realizing that Jhin is naked, he points in the direction of where Jhin's clothes and weapons are. Shaco heads out and runs towards the exit. He then finds the doors and opens it.

Shaco "Lissandra, you are truly a b**ch!"

Jhin stumbling out "Wha- Wha-- WOAH! What in the f**k just happened here?"

Shaco "Well, what a shame. This party died quickly."

Jhin "Look over there! There are two convenient motorcycles parked right there! Plus, neither of them are damaged!"

Both Shaco and Jhin run over to the cycle and turn them on. Both of the cycles belonged to Senators visiting from Zaun, but Jhin and Shaco could give less of a s**t.

Shaco "Woah! Would you take a look at this! They also have full fuel to last us a trip to Shadow Isles!"

Jhin "TUBULAR, DUUUDE!"

Shaco "If you ever say that again, I will personally shank you until you can say the 'ABC's' backwards in less than 9 seconds."

With that, both of them put in the destination as Shadow Isles and rode away from Demacia.

Meanwhile, at the top of the roof...

Soraka "Wo-- Who's there?"

Garen "It's me. We are going to end this once and for all. Where is she!?!?"

Soraka "HOW COULD YOU DO THIS YOU EVIL TWO- SIDED PRICK!?!?"

She shoved Garen many times and beat him with her staff.

Garen "OW! Stop that! It's actually me! STOP! I am good now. I have been given some medicine to prevent that from happening ever again."

Soraka "Oh. In that case, you're late. Rek'sai just took her far away to some place. I am not expecting to see her ever again."

Garen "Then we must get to safety. There is a boat on the docks going to the Shadow Isles... you have to come!"

Soraka agrees and both of them start to walk to the docks.

Soraka "So, why is everyone trying to get to the Shadow Isles?"

Garen "What do you mean by 'everyone'?"

Soraka "Well, Swain and the rest of Noxus... Oh... crap."

Garen chuckles "This will be more interesting than I thought!"

In the VOID laboratories...

Velkoz "Test subject #2, ready for launch?"

item 3512 "Not yet. Give the test subject a few more days of rest for effectiveness."

Velkoz "Good enough."

Malzahar "Well, well, well. What do we have here?"

Velkoz "Test subject #2, but I like to call him Omega Squad Teemo."

Malzahar "Very good. We will launch him as our weapon in the Shadow Isles. Looks like everyone is moving there now."

Velkoz "Looks like Lissandra helped us more than we thought."

Malzahar "Oh no. Her goal was to take over the world with ice, which would really ruin my plans. So, as soon as I located her... she is going to die."

Velkoz "Sounds like a plan!"

Malzahar "Make sure our little friend here is ready to fight in two days... we have a Rek'sai to catch."

i just bought taliyah, and is it just me or is taliyah trash item 3070 Taliyah

Votable JesterJun 8, 20161 votes

I like her. She has her bad matchups, but if you can land your skills, her raw damage is insane. She also has good zone denial, moderate cc, roaming, and a giant wall/dash. It's all a matter of using her abilities well.

KeinecatJun 8, 20161 votes

I've technically got mastery 6 (need the essence or the shard) on her, she's not that bad she's pretty powerful, however I don't really use her as a midlaner, I use her in the Jungle. She's not at all bad. just awkward to 1st pick up but once you get used to it you're golden.

Veigar "PREPARE TO DIE HEROES! NYEH HEH HEH HEH!" MissFortune "I'm pretty sure its just 'Nyeh heh heh.' But idk." Veigar "WHATEVER!

ok so this is what I think its going to happen when they are free this week also this is just for lolz Aatrox a powerful champ that not many people play for some reason Caitlyn so much range and ults get block Kalista using ult at wrong time or support messes up the ult Karma A lot of damage for a support Malzahar well shi voidlings and aids everywhere Nasus getting stacks while base is under attack Shyvana her ult is always up Sona so much harss Taliyah lets face it a lot of people are going to play this champ this free week because she is the new champ and people who will be using her will have game losing ults Warwick can solo baron with enough items

DraclenJun 8, 20162 votes

You see as Aatrox your most powerful skill is a hidden passive that makes everyone not know what you do and therefore allows you to win off element of surprise.

You can still use him on normals though right? So it doesn't really matter. Unless you do the draft pick on normals.

Yeah but it'd be nice, been wanting to try Yasu along with, like, half the playerbase. :) Also, Hi Mushy!

MemeFarmer420Jun 7, 20161 votes

hey bby :)

SoryInAdvanceJun 6, 20161 votes

that has nothing to do with the fact that he was free, that was just because its habit at this point. someone that doesn't own zed will not be good with him.

AubameyangSwagJun 6, 20162 votes

I did surprisingly well with him despite never having used Zed. When fed he is a monster. Even when not his ult can melt squishies. I suppose as long as you understand how the champion works and its limitations, you can do okay even when new to a champ. Mastering a champ is something different altogether tho.

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.
