#A Corporate Matter Episode: That Time Of The Moon Again

Zilean "So it turns out the blood moon actually requires sacrifices when it comes around every year or so. Otherwise, it will kill us and find someone else. But since I don't like killing innocent women and children."

Thresh "I still can't believe you of all people became our leader. The one person who turns into a blood demon and doesn't turn evil. You are going to destroy us all."

Zilean "Hold on, I have a solution to our problem. A hunt, like an easter egg hunt. But instead of eggs, you hunt lost souls and each other. And at the end, whoever has collected the most tributes will win the grand prize. A lifetime supply of chili cheese fries."

TwistedFate "Sounds like a piece of cake. No one will stand a chance against me."

LeeSin "Yeah um, about that."

Zilean Oh, it slipped my mind. But I worked with Corporate Lee Sin to make this an official game mode."

LeeSin "And since players are making me nerf the best item I ever designed, Edge Of Night. I mean, the big plays potential on this thing. I am giving it one last hurrah by only letting assassins in. Here's a list."

TwistedFate "Really, this is the blood moon game mode and half of us can't even compete."

Jhin "I must make beautiful art with these demons. You cannot hold me back."

TwistedFate "And besides, why is Kennen allowed. He doesn't use Edge Of Night, and I'm more of an assassin than he will ever be."

Zilean "Frankly, he scares the hell out of me. I mean, it seemed like a good idea at the time, normal Kennan is so cute. But this thing keeps me up at night. I just don't want him to take that mask off."

Kalista "Eclipse Lord, I got her. We can finally make a Blood Moon Diana!"

Diana "I WILL NEVER BETRAY THE MOON LIKE THAT!"

Zilean "Blood Moon Kalista, you remember my new policy. No Blood Mooning without consent."

Kalista "Yes, I remember because you are the worst leader ever and I would literally take anyone else. Don't worry, she is going to do it willingly."

Diana "I would rather watch a marathon of all the divergent movies, twice. Then become a blood moon."

Zilean "She seems to disagree with you, Blood Moon Kalista."

Shen "That's enough, I have had enough of the direction you are taking this group. Time for me to do something about it. I will be organizing a protest on any day that has remotely anything to do with the moon. We will make a difference. NOT MY ECLIPSE LORD!"

Yasuo "Really, what difference do you think it's going to make."

Shen "Well, I was kinda hoping he would get upset at all the yelling and quit."

Yasuo "Dude, he's so old, he probably ain't got too many years left. You really think he would quit rather than die a blood moon. Yorick has a better chance at getting a new skin."

Kalista "Back to what I was saying. Diana will willingly become a blood moon. Because if she doesn't I will have Blood Moon Elise kill Leona."

Elise "Alright, I can uncover your face now. See, it's really her."

Leona "Ohh, you guys are the ones that stole me. Normal moon, blood moon, when will any form of moon stop causing me trouble."

Diana "Why would I care what happens to Leona. I should thank you for killing her."

Leona** "YEAH, WHY WOULD ME AND THIS HERETIC HAVE FEELING FOR EACHOTHER! I ONLY WANT HER DEAD!"** "Cries slightly."

Kalista "Oh, alright. I guess you won't mind if I just put this spear right through her throat."

Diana "WAIT! Okay, I'll become a blood moon. Just don't hurt her."

Kalista "I knew it, right over there please."

Diana "Wait, Blood Moon Zilean, this isn't consented. I don't want to do this."

Zilean "Eh, as long as you are walking onto the dais by your own will, it's allowed. Quite a loophole I know, but I never put anything in the rules about blackmail."

Diana "Just so you know Leona, I am only doing this so I can kill you myself."

Leona "Not if I get you first."

Diana "HAUHWRHAUAHUHR!!!!" "Turns into Blood Moon Diana."

Zilean "Alright, if you would just let Leona go, the games can begin."

Over in the hunt of the blood moon:

Akali "Alright, this game mode favors those who can hunt down single targets and rekt them before they get a chance to do anything."

Pantheon "Hahehahe! I have but two weakness's, late game and tanks. Neither of which are an issue here. So, good luck."

Talon "You're not so strong. I can just outplay you an-" "Dies."

Pantheon "Try outplaying my point and clicks son."

Ekko "Heads up!"

Pantheon "Stun, stabby stab, throw spear, guaranteed crit, and dead. Try rewinding that, coward." "Turns super spooky."

Akali "Where did he go, I lost him, I-" "Dies."

Pantheon "Gotta love that invisibility and bonus damage."

LeeSin "Ah, this is how League was meant to be played. So many big plays, so much action. I should make normal league much more like t-" "Dies."

Pantheon "All hail the blood god, me!"

Two weeks of death, salt, death, overpowered Pantheon and Rengar, and death later:

Zilean "That was so much fun. I mean, I enjoyed watching it. Not sure how it was to play. Anyway, our winner is Pantheon. Seriously, that guy is good. A lifetime supply of chili cheese fries for you good sir!"

excellent as usual

and when is the site up?

King Dellron6 votes

While I have had a myriad of delays in making it. From dental surgery to catching the flu to the laptop's hard drive taking a hike. I hope to have it up in the next week or two.

boo9102 votes

well then get better soon*[slayer-jinx-wink]*

Death and Doom1 votes

i believe kha zix is superior. building full lethality lets you aa q for a kill. pantheon is definitely strong, but kha zix with his evolved claws and ult is absolutely ridiculous.

King Dellron4 votes

Yeah, I wasn't sure if I shoulda gone with Rengar, Pantheon or Kha'zix. I personally felt Pantheon was the best, and he has the highest win rate in the game mode. So I went with him.

TreyIsCray2 votes

Jesus, someone else who notices that Yorick needs another skin. And I thought I was the only one.

Garbear1011 votes

Reéd1 votes

I wish they added a Blood Moon Zed I feel that would look awesome like a blood moon above there heads when he Ults (That was basically my only ability idea) But the skin for him would look so cool with the artist and game designers riot has BOY it'll look amazing.

How tanky can Yorick be? Haven't played him and I'm looking forward to giving him a try.

God of Ducks2 votes

LezbianLizard697 votes

Yorick is a juggernaut, so I'd say he's pretty tanky.

grarrrg2 votes

Yes. He was free shortly after they reworked him, and has apparently been deemed "OK" for free. (For now anyway...ominous music)

Kat was on free play for Blood Moon... why is she on free play ... AGAIN?

grarrrg1 votes

I maintain the theory that they plan the Free Rotations Weeks(months?) in advance. Then someone said "hey, we're doing Blood Moon, lets have EXTRA freebies", and...yeah...
