A Corporate Matter: Episode 34

Gnar "SORAKA!!!!!"

Soraka "WHAT NOW!!"

Gnar "A SCARY SWIRL, IT APPEARED OVER MY HEAD!"

Soraka "What do you want me to do about it?"

Gnar "I hope this doesn't have anything to do with the floating mask i upset last week."

Soraka "Sir, i did not see any swirl, i have no idea what you are talking about."

Gnar "Trust me, it was there. What does it mean. Its not the villain symbol, so i don't have to worry about Garen. Is it good or bad?"

Soraka "Yes, hello operator. I would like to call a psychiatrist. Yeah, my boss has lost it and is seeing things and talking nonsense."

Kindred "Corporate Gnar, you." "Have been marked for death."

Gnar "SEE SORAKA, I TOLD YOU IT WAS SOMETHING BAD!"

Soraka "I'm gonna need to call you back."

Kindred "You have meddled in the forces of death. For which the penalty is." "DEATH!"

Gnar "I'm so sorry, i didn't mean to. I don't want to die."

Kindred "Once you are marked, you must die. It increases the damage of my bow." "Now choose, you can have a swift death by Lamb. Or try to run, and i will hunt you down and eat you."

Gnar "Or third choice. I picked up this extra long Zhonya's hourglass. HYA!!!!!!!!"

Kindred "No problem, we can wait. Death has eternal patience." "But when its time, i get to eat you. And thanks to you, we will be unable to kill the abomination known as yorick morie. I finally thought it would be his time. Now he gets to keep living as some undead zombie of doom."

Gnar "Soraka, stop hiding and get over here. I can't move but i can still talk. I need you to go and get someone who knows all about death to come and save me."

Soraka "Alright sir, i might be able to find Karthus. But me and him kinda have a burning hatred for each other."

Gnar "NO, NOT HIM! He loves death and would stay so he could watch me die. Go and get Mordekaiser, tell him i am willing to take that deal, if he gets here quickly."

Soraka "Ok, so i get to leave kindred, who does exact opposite of what i do. To go and find someone else obsessed with death. I knew I should've gotten a job at Dollywood instead!" "Runs away."

Teemo "So, you guys taking on any apprentices?"

Kindred "No" "Twerp"

Gnar "Oh no, my hourglass is running out sooner than i thought, i knew i shouldn't have trusted that Iceborn ghost. He died, why did i think he had stuff that would stop me from dying."

Soraka "I AM BACK BOSS!"

Gnar "How did you possibly make it back so fast?"

Mordekaiser "We flew, on my pet dragon ghost. Good boy toothful, glad i bought that instruction video on how to train you."

Kindred "Well, all this is fun but. We have to get going. Dear wolf, if you could eat him." "Yes lamb, i will enjoy this."

Mordekaiser "Hold up, you can't kill him. He has accepted my deal. This means that i own his soul. You cannot touch him."

Kindred "You sold your soul to not die, that makes me so angry." "Its ok wolf, we can't have this one. But dragonblade talon is our next target. We shall be going now."

Mordekaiser "Thanks for taking the deal. You shall have what you want within a week."

Gnar "What are you going to do with my soul?"

Mordekaiser "Oh, nothing yet. Yours is especially toxic and greedy, so i will save it for future use."

Over at some intense battle:

Talon "I WILL KILL YOU PROJECT: ZED!"

Zed "Not the other seven times we fought, Dragonblade Talon."

Talon "Well, you have outplayed me so hard. BUT NOT THIS TIME!"

Zed "Yeah, my ult is up."

Talon "OH PLEASE NO!"

Zed "HAHAHAH, DEATH MARK!"

Talon "HOLY STARFISH H, BATMAN. YOU HURT!"

Kindred "Boink, mark of death completed." "It feels so good."

Zed "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! HE WAS MINE. MY ULT WOULD HAVE KILLED HIM. WHY CRUEL WORLD!!!"

Kindred "Our mark of death." "Is Superior to your death mark."

There is a rather obscure reference to Crash Tag Team racing. (Unless the thing i am referencing is also a reference.) If anyone has played that game and thinks they can find it.

Hint: Pasadena O'Possum.

Starfish H3 votes

So I loaded up my old Crash Game and basically played Pasadena for about half n hour and found out after dying a lot (Because I suck at the game) she says this quote

[{quoted}](name=King Dellron,realm=NA,application-id=Ag8jgd8Q,discussion-id=TgJlKvkA,comment-id=0000,timestamp=2015-10-05T17:04:11.257+0000) Soraka "I knew I should've gotten a job at Dollywood instead!"

King Dellron2 votes

Woooo! someone found it. (And they didn't just look up pasadena quotes on google.)

I haven't played that game in so long, good times.

I don't know why, but that quote has always stuck out with me. Maybe its because i have been to dollywood.

1+ For your prize, you can have two triangles.

Ayee lmao I had to boot up my game cube just to find out.

PROJECT Fizz3 votes

HOLY STARFISH, BATMAN! I have no response to that

King Dellron4 votes

Bit of a backstory on that one. I was playing talon mid. (with Dragonblade on.) Normally, talon is one of my strongest Champs. I was against a zed by the name of Starfish H. He seemed to always kill me and barely live. Mostly because of how good he was at dodging my w. He recognized me from these stories. So, as a rule. If you find me in a real game and say so. You just might get to be in a story.

PROJECT Fizz2 votes

oh, cool back story on a hilarious line

"Our mark of death." "Is Superior to your death mark." Ohhhh that's why Zed gets some nerfs, to make Kindred look more interesting to players...

VinhBlade4 votes

PLOT TWIST: Zilean was there...... Talon ''Well, you have outplayed me so hard. BUT NOT THIS TIME!'' Ekko pops out of nowhere Ekko ''Nope.'' kills Talon Zed ''NOOOOOOOO!''

But anyway, 2015 is almost up, and so is ranked season. I wish you luck in 2016!! Have fun climbing ELO Hell!

Terribly written.. Why do people upvote this crap?

King Dellron4 votes

Generally, people upvote something because: They like it. They find it entertaining. They like the author. Or They want more people to see it.

You are entitled to your opinion. But you see, comments like yours don't really do much. They won't change anything and really just leave a negative air around.

Now, what would be great. Is if you could go into detail about what you don't like. If there is something i can do better. Be constructive and help me make these better. So everyone can enjoy them more.

Thanks for reading.

I'll give it to you, man. You're right.

Warwick has the same splash art since his release in 2009 (6 years ago)...He never received his visual update and gameplay rework promised 3 years ago... How such outdated champ can still be in the free champs rotation in 2015...

Kaiju Boy2 votes

Fun Fact: Warwick and Rammus are the only champions from the beginning of the game that have never had their splash art updated or changed. While I don't think Rammus needs one too badly, Warwick will get his soon once they rework him in the near future.

Ashe + Warwick = Kindred But it is not the same...

Can I get a kindred release por favor.

I need my story! Where is corporate gnar?

King Dellron3 votes

He is everywhere. Waiting, watching, making money. Oh wait, he just set up cameras, actually being everywhere is way too much work.

TKOxNight1 votes

To be honest, I like it that most of he free picks (if not all) are champs I don't own, that way I can test out champions before I buy, but a lot of people with instalock in pvp and Ai, which leaves me to customs, which are never fun unless I have enough friends willing to do things with me, and we all understand that it's hard to put a part together on the fly..

jmp2312 votes

just do draft mode or team builder

Teambuilder is the best thing you could do for that, and if the wait time is too long for you, just come back later
