#A Corporate Matter Episode:_ You Better Overwatch Your Servers, Lest They Break._

DrMundo "League is down, Corporate Mundo report, League is down. Sound alarms, we losing money by minute."

Gnar "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, CALL THE DUNKSQUAD, CALL MY MOMMY!"

Soraka "Calm down sir, I'm sure everything will be fine."

Gnar "You don't understand, Corporate Mundo is terrible at financing. He spends all of our money as soon as we make it. Without the constant inflow of cash, we won't be able to afford anything. Not even our icons."

Soraka: "I think you might be- Oh Rito, this is horrible."

Corporate Gnar: "Hey, who is that out there?"

Tracer: "C'mon, the world could always use more heroes. Join Overwatch, it's a blast."

Corporate Gnar: "Hey you, just because we are down right now. Doesn't mean you can just come outside our building and try to recruit our players."

Reaper: "Oh, shut up. We have been doing a fine job taking your players, even without you knocking your league out."

Heimerdinger: So, you just do one turret, but you can upgrade it twice, instead of once?"

Torbjörn: "You should try it sometime. My baby's got some kick to her. I might even be able to show you how to attach the rocket launchers."

Gangplank: "Nice gun, bet you can almost one shot someone as fast as me.

Mccree: "Your voice, why it's like listening to a recording of myself. I dare say you're almost as handsome as me as well."

Evelynn: "You stole my look."

Widowmaker: "At least I am actually an assassin."

Reinhardt: "Mine's bigger."

Braum: "It's not the size that matters, it's all about how you use it."

Corporate Gnar: "I have had enough, all this game cross-referencing is getting out of hand. Lemme check, League should be fixed in about, does anyone have the time?"

Gangplank, "Let me see, judging by how the sun is up nice and high. Noon is about what I would say."

Everyone scatters and hides behind walls and trees.

Gangplank: "What did I do?"

Corporate Mundo: "Attention, we be taking everything down for to fix leagues. Commencing all shutdowns."

Corporate Gnar: "But, my story."

Hecarim: "That happens."

Riven: "Welp. We're officially done." "SOMEONE TURN ON THE LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!"

Hecarim "Alright, fine. Everyone go into this "iris" thing." Veigar "If it means escaping Bronze, I'm in!" Blitzcrank "Hello fellow robots. I am your new leader, Battle Boss Blitzcrank."

Bastion: "Beep beep."

Sona "..." MissFortune "Alright whatever" Riven "If there's a chat, I'm out." Malzahar Chogath KogMaw Khazix RekSai Kassadin Velkoz "Don't forget us!" TahmKench "Hello everyone, I'm finally back from getting Level 6 so I'm gonna join you all." Thresh "I'm the destroyer of the universe so I might as well be here."

Tracer: "Alright, Is everyone ready to go?"

Everyone: "YEAH!"

I like how Khazix and Rengar are in the same champ rotation (rivals) and Yasuo and Riven too.

TFBaam6/27/2016, 7:21:26 PM4 votes

and people here are complaining about the cancer champions here, kha zix, rengar, yasuo, ekko, etc and the typo, etc and yet they havent seen the worst yet. Ashe and Taric who said you can move?

NotoriosBigBoss6/27/2016, 7:26:05 PM4 votes

I can't believe they put Kha'zix and Rengar on the same week.

PK Flunr6/29/2016, 12:09:33 AM1 votes

Honestly Yasuo and Ekko will be much less powerful because they are quite hard to use. Heimer, on the other hand...

T8er86/28/2016, 5:21:11 PM1 votes
