#A Corporate Matter Episode: From Cosmic Dusk Till Cosmic Dawn

Soraka "Boss, what are you-"

Gnar "Quick! Get under here and don't look outside. Maybe they won't find us if we hide under my statue."

Soraka "Why? What's going on outside?"

Gnar "The sky is tearing itself apart. It has to be the work of some interdimensional demon. Our only hope of survival is to leave all the blinds closed, turn off all the lights, make no noise and hide under here. And most of all DON'T LOOK OUTSIDE!"

Soraka "Huh, you're right, the sky does seem to be killing itself."

Gnar "DID YOU NOT LISTEN TO A WORD I JUST SAID!"

Soraka "Hang on, I'm going to get a telescope and see what's really going on. Jeez, it's dark in here." "Turns on lights."

Gnar "Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!" "Gets unimaginably trigged and retreats back under statue."

Soraka "Alright, let's see what's going on up there."

Somewhere up in space:

Kassadin "Crikey! You are one mean lair."

Thresh "What did you just call me?"

Kassadin "You heard me ya Dropkick."

Thresh "No matter, it seems that Dark Star Varus has returned with the new recruits."

Varus "I have brought the younglings, and boy are they hungry."

Orianna "I shall weave this star into a most beautiful dress."

Khazix "I hunger for your Cosmic Reaver flesh."

Kassadin "Well, if you ain't gonna give me a fair go and 1v1 me like a real man. Then I guess I better bring on the mob." "Lets out a sharp whistle."

Xayah "Oi, what you want mate? I was trying to get my arvo nap in."

Rakan "Sometimes, I forget what a Beaut of a sheila you are."

MasterYi "She definitely ain't no dog."

Rakan "Oi, Rack off mate. She's mine."

Varus "Do you have any idea what they are saying?"

Thresh "I speak all languages in the known and unknown universe, and I still can't figure it out."

MasterYi "So, why did you call us all the way out here, ya mug?"

Kassadin "I need your help to cream these riled up ratbags."

Rakan "Now why would we want to do that?"

Kassadin "They plan on eating all of the universe."

MasterYi "And why you think we need to save this universe?"

Kassadin "Cause I'm one of the dills who lives in it."

Xayah "Yeah, but have you seen the league boards. Maybe we should just wipe everything and start over."

Kassadin "Yeah, but if we do that then there might not be anymore Four X."

Xayah "Oi, he's right mates. We need to stop them."

MasterYi "Fine, which ones the boss?"

Kassadin "That bloke right there."

MasterYi "I'ma stick my finger up its bum."

Thresh "You're gonna what now?"

MasterYi "OI! COME RIGHT HERE!" "Jumps on Dark Star Thresh."

Thresh "AHHHH, GET IT OFF ME!"

MasterYi "Seems we've made her quite angry now. See, if we grab it like so, it can't throw us off."

Varus "Just hold still boss, I think I can hit him." "Shoot's arrow."

Thresh "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

MasterYi "Crikey, now she's got an arrow sticking our of its bum."

Thresh "I'M NOT A SHE!"

Orianna "My Dark Star Ball can pull him off." "Ults Cosmic Blade Master Yi."

Thresh "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!"

Rakan "We've spent too many nights with your mom!"

Thresh "That's it, fine. If this was responsible for creating these creatures. We don't want it. Let's go to some other dimension."

MasterYi "COME BACK YA WUSS, I HAVEN'T HAD MY FINISH WITH YOU."

Thresh "I feel violated." "Dimensional-portals away."

MasterYi "So, now that I took care of that big bad. Xayah, what say you and me go down to the Bottle-o and get ourselves a-"

Rakan "Oi mate! I thought I told you not to crack onto her. She's my sheila."

Cosmic Noon would've been a more 'fitting' title.

Soraka is me lol I wonder if she was wondering, "Do they need my ult orrrrr...?

Phyreburd2 votes

I cannot applaud hard enough for the South Park reference. Well played sir.

Zpeedy1 votes

pretty sure xayah and rakan are not British

King Dellron5 votes

Oi, they're aussies mate! Technically, they are Oceanic. But that's really just what the Pollie's say, so the kiwis don't get upset.

For real though, Cosmic Reaver Kassadin was made to commemorate the launch of the oceanic servers. So I decided that all the cosmic skins would have a thick Australian accent.

Blitzcrank Gotcha Diana hit by Q = DEATH Lucian Korea loves drive-by's Malphite Rammus's fraternal twin Nasus Still bad against ranged champs Rakan GOTTA GO FAST Veigar HOW DID YOU ONE SHOT AT HALF HEALTH WTF Vi commin for dat booty Xayah Wow shes all alone, this is easy.

Sin of Wrath2 votes

"Gotcha" Exactly why he's my first choice ban.

Morning Raven8 votes

This is a very interesting rotation. I wonder if riot will continue to have Xayah and Rakan on the same rotation after this one. (This one makes sense because they just got released)

Joey TandJ502 votes

They definitely should.

Light Sovereign5 votes

Lucian Banned cause he's too op or don't want to risk your adc feeding playing him for the first time.

XinZhao Banned cause you don't want to deal with his Bs.

Rakan Banned cause he's hard to kill and really mobile and annoying.

Xayah Banned cause she's hidden op and will shred your team if not under control.

Veigar Meh, passive laning phase but as a support will prob be hidden op.

Vi Zhonyas is a good option.

Diana dead as soon as her Q Reaches you.

Nasus I don't Care if they are at our Inhib, i need to stack my Q

Blitzcrank He was Just lucky with that blind hoo- gets hooked bcuz 2 busy typing

Malphite Ban this guy to deter enemy team from picking Yasuo, or if u want to play adc.

XAYAH AND RAKAN CAN BE IN THE FREE ROTATION ALREADY, BUT GRAVES CANT HAVE A DAM CIGAR

Saturnica6 votes

ironically he can, they just recently added it back and are doing so lol

grarrrg3 votes

My concern is that he almost had to have seen the GRAVE'S CIGAR BACK news post first in order to scroll down to the Free Rotation post. Thus, I'm going with "troll".

So Xayah and Rakan can be on the rotation now, but it has been over 30 weeks since Taliyah was free. Rito?

Saturnica1 votes

So we have the broken xin, the robot that triggers everyone except the super high elos, xayah and rakan which if used correctly fuck everyone in the ass, and lucian. bans in draft this week will not be surprising, to say the least... at least i can finally try out xin, lucian and vi!

She was just here 2 weeks ago for that "We made these Vastaya champs now" extra freebies. And a week before that. If it helps, she's arguably the most often Free champ there is...give it 2 weeks.
