#A Corporate Matter Episode: Zed is going to get them all Dead. Or: You can pick your friends, but you can't pick your witness protection housemates. (I was unable to decide on which episode name to use, so here is both.)

Gnar "You people are driving me completely crazy. HOW LONG UNTIL DEADEYE IS CAUGHT!!!!!"

Vi "My friends in the police station tell me that they still aren't much closer to catching him. Also, they are calling him the Virtuoso now."

Gnar "JHIN, DEADEYE, VIRTUOSO, HOW MANY NAMES DOES ONE MAN NEED!!!!"

KogMaw "Come on, old chap. It isn't all bad, I find extended sleepovers to be quite fun."

Soraka "WELL, YOU AREN'T THE ONE WHO HAS TO COOK FOR EVERYONE BECAUSE THE HEAD CHEF LEFT FOR FEAR OF BEING SHOT!"

Garen "You are doing great, it takes a lot to fill a great warrior of Demacia such as I. But, everything you have made so far is banana based. It tastes good, but do you think you could maybe make something without Bananas?"

Soraka "NO, I CAN'T MAKE ANYTHING WITHOUT BANANAS. IT'S THE ONLY THING I KNOW HOW TO COOK WITH!!"

Sona "..."

Soraka "WHAT DID YOU JUST PLAY? DO IT AGAIN, COME ON! I WILL SHOW YOU THE TRUE POWER OF THE BANANA!!!!!!!!!!"

KogMaw "Well, I for one think that Bananas taste excellent, and wouldn't mind eating them in every meal for the rest of my life."

Vi "Suck up."

Soraka "I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU SONA! WE WOULDN'T EVEN BE IN THIS SITUATION IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO GO AND GET A DEATH THREAT ON YOURSELF!!"

Gnar "Alright Soraka, you seem to be a little cranky. Why don't you get a little sleep."

Soraka "Ok, I guess you are right. Maybe I could try and lay down here and maybe fall-" "Snores."

KogMaw "It's scary when Corporate Gnar is the Sensible one."

Vi "Well, I guess I get to make dinner tonight then."

Teemo "Vi is cooking, dear Rito help us all."

Garen "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!! WHY WAS THERE AN INVISIBLE TEEMO IN THERE!!!"

Vi "Corporate Gnar keeps Recon Teemo locked in there for some reason. I am pretty sure I don't want to know why. Yordles are weird, man. All I know is he is getting none of my food tonight."

Teemo "Hey, ugly man lady. Isn't it illegal to keep me locked up like this?"

Vi "Yeah, if you were something anyone cared about. Frankly, everyone hates Teemos, so you have zero rights."

Garen "Anyone notice that Zed is even more dark and brooding than normal? Also, he hasn't blinked, or moved, in the past hour."

Gnar "Wait a minute, that isn't Zed. IT'S-"

Garen "IT'S BATMAN!!!!"

Vi "Oh sweety, no. It's his shadow. He tricked us and is somewhere else."

Teemo "And here I was thinking that he had finally grown an interesting personality."

A few minutes pass, Zed teleports back to his clone and sees everyone staring at him with their arms crossed.

Vi "Where have you been?"

Zed "Well, I have been standing right here. You guys look angry."

Gnar "Yeah, we know you swapped with your shadow. You didn't leave the building did you?"

Zed "I couldn't take it, I had to get out for a little bit. I am so used to having unlimited mobility and showing up anywhere I want and getting a kill before anyone can even ping MIA. I just had to go somewhere. "

Gnar "ZED, YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE AND GO ALL OVER THE PLACE. WHAT IF YOU WERE SPOTTED. YOU COULD BE THE DEATH OF US ALL!!!!!"

Zed "You are being a little dramatic. Besides, who would be looking at the small rundown candy shop I went to."

Vi "Do you go there often?"

Zed "Yeah, around this time every day. But everyone knows that."

Vi "That's it, we are all dead. I tried, I really did. But these idiots, there is nothing I can do to carry them."

Zed "Ok, yeah, I see your point now. Maybe it might not have been the smartest idea to go there. But I'm Zed, I can outplay anyone that comes to kill me. And by that, I mean spamming everything and killing him faster than he can kill me."

Sona "..."

Zed "Hey, maybe you would be a bit nicer if I told you that I got you all a candy bar. Dark Chocolate, my favorite. I love Dark Chocolate so much, here you guys go. Oh wait, I might have accidentally eaten them all on the way."

Vi "You ate them all on the way. DON'T YOU JUST HAVE TO TELEPORT BACK TO YOUR SHADOW?"

Zed "No, I had to walk out the store first, otherwise the owner gives me weird looks. And I guess in the time it took me to walk out the store I kinda ate all the bars. I HAVE A PROBLEM OK!"

Garen "Did you, at least, stop some bad guys. Like the Shaco, or Mr. Crycore?"

Zed "What? No, I am the bad guy. I killed Shen's father and practice evil shadow techniques."

Garen "So, you really aren't the batman?"

Vi "You know, The Virtuoso killing me might not be so bad. At least, I wouldn't have to live on the same planet as these idiots anymore."

Velkoz Velkoz Velkoz Geometry will rain supreme this week. And to think I bought Anivia yesterday thinking I'd spam her to level 5, sorry Ice Burd.

Yes, finally Cassiopeia and Vladimir . But Vayne in rotation, come on Riot. Everyone has Vayne (almost) and now because she's in rotation and meta, I'll now play mid this week. Thx Riot I love how you classify champions in rotations. The half is meta/most played, half not much played it's really balanced. :D

I would greatly appreciate it Riot if Pantheon was free sometime soon. From what I have seen, Pantheon looks absolutely fantastic, and I REALLY wanna play him. I won't beg, and I won't bribe, cuz it seems that whenever people do that on these forums, the opposites of those champs are selected. This is simply a humble request from a simple player who is still trying to figure out what champs he is best with. And I think Pantheon could be one of them.

Great, won't be playing top lane any time soon! Fucking Vlad. Can't play against him at all with the champs I play.

BrokenKite1/11/2016, 10:58:13 PM1 votes

Okay now for this week here's my thoughts

  1. Amumu I already play him but I love him <3
  2. Bard BRB Getting meeps
  3. Braum STAND BEHIND HIM
  4. Cassiopeia I forgot Medusa was in this game
  5. Evelynn They had a fun time making her splash art in china
  6. Gangplank I want oranges now
  7. Sivir Boomerang Blade!!!
  8. Vayne Prepare for the clutch plays
  9. Velkoz I heard the true damage is mean.... time to have fun
  10. Vladimir Blood.....everywhere....... Overall: Will probably play most of them. Nothing too bad 8/10
