#A Corporate Matter Episode: Freedom doesn't ring, it breaks down the door. It also time travels, because nothing says freedom like messing with the fabric of existence.

Ryze "Hey, wake up guys."

Ekko "Huh, is it freedom day already?"

Gnar "I SWEAR EKKO, AS SOON AS I FEEL MY LEGS AGAIN I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!"

Ryze "So, I might have messed up again."

Ekko "How much did we miss freedom day by?"

Ryze "Oh not much, just somewhere around, uhhh, seven years."

Gnar "SEVEN YEARS! NOW I AM GOING TO KILL BOTH OF YOU!"

Ekko "Seriously man, what keeps distracting you like this?"

Ryze "It's, hard to explain."

Gnar "Whoa, that new Warwick looks so cool. Is that Urgot way over there, I have to see what is different about him."

Urgot "Eternal Ugly, endless broken promises. Never reworked."

Ekko "Jeez, poor guy. Still no rework?"

Ryze "Hasn't had a single change in over three years. It's almost like they are trying to pretend this abomination doesn't exist. And now that Yorick and Sion are cool now, they don't hang out with him anymore."

Ekko "Solo queue back yet?"

Ryze "What's that? Why would anyone want to queue up solo?"

Ekko "Man, this new future sounds terrible."

Ryze "It's actually pretty great, all five lanes are assassins and there are so many big plays. Plus, we are getting a replay feature soon."

Gnar "Hah, I will believe that when I see it. Assuming Corporate Mundo is still in charge, it might not be so soon."

Ekko "Welp, let's get back to freedom day."

Gnar "Oh no, I am not grabbing on to you right after you get zapped by lighting, only to end up back in the DotA Allstars days and find whatever their version of a freeze mage is. Instead, I am going to go lie on the floor here and wait for the power creep to kill me."

Ekko Don't worry, I had a feeling that Ryze might forget again. So I set my Z-Drive to turn on when we needed to be. I can take us back to the right freedom day."

Gnar "Alright, fine. But no pitbull songs this time."

Ryze "Let's go, let's go!"

Some bad time pun later:

Xerath "Corporate Gnar, our guest of honor! So glad you could make it on time. Good job Ryze."

Ryze "Yep, right on time. Just as you wanted."

Ashe "Say, you look a little different. Much sexier, did you lose weight?"

Ryze "Yep, I got into shape. Also, I am really really balanced now." "Wink wink."

Xerath "In honor of your greatness, Corporate Gnar, We are have built a statue right here."

Ashe "Also, we are naming the new Freljordian hotel after you. Corporate Gnar Tower."

Gnar "Yes, worship my greatness. Finally, someone understands how important I am."

Azir "NOT AS IMPORTANT AS THE EMPEROR!"

Lissandra "OR THE ICE WITCH!"

Gnar "Come on guys, didn't we do this last year? You really need to find something better to do."

Xerath "You better leave. Unless you want a lighting bolt where the sun don't shine."

Azir "You amuse me, for you see, I have brought my sand army. SOLDIERS, ATTACK!"

Xerath "You are still outmatched! There is five of us, and only, one, five, eight, six-hundred of you! Hmmm, I might have miscalculated our odds."

A short but epic battle ensues. Sadly, Azir and Lissandra win, with everyone else being tied up in a corner.

Lissandra "Look at me, we are the leaders now."

Ekko "I'm not feeling very free on freedom day."

Ashe "Whats that coming over the hill?"

Gnar "I made a call before the fight broke out."

Ekko "Is it a Sona? It's a Sona!"

Ryze But, how did she get here so fast?"

Gnar "Sona got buffed, her E, it's so fast. Get ready to see the rest."

Sona "!!!"

Azir "NOBODY GETS IN THE WAY OF SHUR-" "Gets one shot."

Sona "!!!"

Sona begins massacring them all, while casting spells so fast you would think it was urf.

Ashe "Oh dear Rito, the horror."

Ryze "And I thought I had no cooldowns."

Xerath "She is taking no damage, WHY IS SHE TAKING NO DAMAGE!"

Lissandra "LEONA, GET DOWN HERE, YOU ARE HER ONLY COUNTER!"

Leona "Not anymore, Leona out, peace!" "Runs away at light speed."

Lissandra "Alright alright, we can share freedom valley and freedom day. Just please stop being so broken."

Ashe "YOU DID IT SONA, YOU BROUGHT TRUE FREEDOM!"

Xerath "YOUR NAME MUST BE SHOUTED FROM THE HIGHEST ROOFTOPS. WE ALL SHALL WORSHIP YOU AND NO ONE ELSE. A STATUE OF YOUR GREATNESS SHALL BE MADE RIGHT HERE." "Destroys Corporate Gnar statue with lightning bolt, lightning bolt, lightning bolt, lightning bolt.."

Gnar "But, that was my statue. What about my greatness? Oh nevermind, I should be used to this by now."

Ashe "Sona, do you have any words on how you feel?"

Sona "..."

Xerath "Simply amazing."

Gnar "Alright, I want to go back home. Ryze, can you call your Bird Of Prey Anivia?"

Ryze "She is at the spa getting her nails done right about this time. But I can teleport us there now."

Gnar "Yeah sure, that makes sense."

Azir What's with Shurima and walls.

Fiddlesticks Ultimate + Hourglass = Instant pentakill

Jax Leap and dodge, adc dead.

Karma Used in LCS, must be op.

Leblanc Da heck did she come from.

Lucian Time for those Lucian Korean builds.

MissFortune 60% of MF players use e to poke.

Nocturne When you hear his ult, someone's gonna die.

Renekton Underestimate this champ, op when fed.

TahmKench Time for those troll ults in the enemy base.

This is my first time doing this. I know that people did this in the past and I wanted to give this a try.

#The Arcade Update: 7/18/16 Hello everyone, the season finale of The Arcade: Season 1 will come out next week! Due to personal stuff happening and not having any ideas except for the Battlecast skins (and maybe the new project skins?) appearing, it's delayed. Sorry for the delay, I think it will be worth the wait however, so that's cool I guess. See you next week.
