I haven't heard of them changing the system for demoting out of a division. If it's the same as last year, then it's almost impossible to do and really only meant as a deterrent to keep the Elo Boosted from playing on their accounts after being raised up. Think it works like this: If you lose enough games as a Plat V to get you to a Gold V MMR, you'll get a warning. If you lose a couple more games after the warning then you get demoted. I went

[/quote] Had a last pick Vi who told us she was "taking a piss" during the entire champ select phase but didn't let that stopping from complaining and insulting us the whole game about forcing her into a role that she couldn't carry from. I won't quote her cause some of the things she said probably violate Stardock's rules involving hate speech and such. Had
[quote who="Krazikarl" reply="1120" id="3517748"] I WAS YELLING "DONT DO THAT BARON" AS I WAS WATCHING YOUR STREAM. [/quote] Yeah. Even with Panth's ult coming late it was still... yeah.
Yeah, Jungler + Support/Mid is the highest potential for advantage IMO. Thresh lanterns to Karl for free LP in Season 5?! I feel that Hedgie and I had some good communication and pick synergy at times in the past for bot lane, but for the most part I think people overestimate the advantage of having someone in TS3 pointing out how great it would have been if you had only hit that hook. Duos can be a bummer sometime but for the most part I think that allowing the people who
[quote who="pacov" reply="1084" id="3517363"] If I see someone list things the way you did, I'm going to try to put that guy in support [/quote] lol That list is my way of requesting to play Support if that wasn't clear. I like the role and know how to play more than one Support champ so I don't mind playing it quite often. I'm sure I'll get quite
1. I'd love to watch me some Cow streaming. Pretty sure you could enjoy some popularity if you worked at it, if you're willing to teach the game a little bit and talk about why you're doing this etc. Streamers seem to get viewers by either: trolling Kaceytron style, boobs, being really really really good, being funny/having a good personality. There aren't that many out there who are willing or able to teach the game while they play, so being a 'Diamond N
If it's at all like my first time playing fantasy football ten years ago, the hype will come naturally. I went from being that "So, who's winning the match?" guy to "Yeah, that 3-4 defense is going to be much better now that they have the personnel to pull it off." guy. So you have your roster of guys and decide who is going to be your guy at each position, and whose going to ride the bench. This is where overall skill vs matchups might come in because the best Mid
I don't mind Pacov having fun and experimenting with new items. I don't mind fed/free farming pantheons who have been laning against a Teemo who rushed MR jumping on me mid lane cause they're bored. I do mind when people who troll get salty with their team over how the game is going. If I enjoyed that, I'd start playing with Sydragon. So yeah, I'm fine with having Z Portal disabled.
Yeah, looks like routes aren't going to change unless the jungle AI change makes some sort of difference... but maybe it's a little better for the jungler who gets invaded. You'll get 2 smites to get back into the game when you're trying to recover after getting killed or sent back to base by Blitz shenanigans.
[quote who="pacov" reply="1018" id="3516258"] Quoting Krazikarl, 1) Most of this stuff isn't going to work that well as of 5.1 since junglers will have a second early smite, which greatly eases 1st buff pains I believe (not sure of exact mechanics). I don't even know about this... anyone else know what karl's on about?
I'll be on tonight and tomorrow if anyone wants to play. Re: Blitz Invades Sounds fun but it has some risks. Let's make a deal? If you pull it off (hahaha!) then we will praise you appropriately. If bad things happen, then you don't get to complain about how the rest of the game goes if you give up FB or your ADC get's zoned and loses bot lane because of the invade.
Was bored at work and spectating that game. When Cow called 'scripter' I checked out a slo-mo replay of her using some pretty fast combos of all her abilities. Could have been scripting, could have been just good button mashing. The 'fight' at Baron was perhaps a bad example to reference. Baron's MR/Armor shred made it easy to erase three non-fed players, though I'm not sure she would have needed it with some of your team being at extremely low heal
^ Totally not me posting on Cow's account to cover up the fact that I accidentally got him killed in a lava tube. Edit: Ah, and Cow left his FB account open so that should make it easier to keep up the charade that he's still alive. JK Cow, signing out right now so I can cyberstalk my ex GF's.
Re: Taking Camps As Bot Yeah, was reading a Reddit post a month ago talking about how the side who can take Rock Snails has a huge advantage. It was funny cause Krepo chimed in as "someone who knows a little about supporting" to talk about how the opponents should be taking Gromp to get a bigger lead. He mentioned specifics on how to tank/kite Gromp but I didn't pay much attention since it will be fixed before the season starts like Karl said. Re
It might be a little better with Pete nowadays. Exhaust over TP when he supports is really nice, kudos for convincing him of that. But the reason I bailed on you guys to go play with Bainick and Marsh the other day was because he was ranting about how he didn't do any damage on the Alistar and wouldn't admit that possibly maybe perhaps an Ali with his ult up wasn't the best target for his full combo. It's hard for me to queue up again with him after I have
Or... The Peter Whisperer? I was going to say The Peter Pleaser cause you'd always say "Peter please!" but it sounds kinda... yeah, I think The Peter Whisperer should be your new handle. Edit: If you can get Pete to start with a support item when he plays support AND buy a Sightstone within 20 minutes, we might upgrade you to The Dumptruck Messiah, but you're not there yet.
I'm not even close. Bought too many "on sale" skins that never saw play, not even in an ARAM. So I kinda downgraded my spending a bit. But damn if Riot hasn't gone and made Bloodmoon Elise and Thresh! I try and get out... but they pull me back in!
Re: Support Feel good about my solo laning skills currently. Smurfing with my Bronze buddies was a good way to learn Top and Mid cause they progressed eventually so I got to gradually build up to playing against Silvers and Golds I'm feeling in a good place on playing solo, so playing Support right now ain't no chore for me. I'm stoked to fill in whenever. Re: Playing What We're Best At Hedgie, Karl, and I are pretty mel
Silly Cow. Pacov's Vlog will be about how he plans on duoing with Peter to get to Diamond this upcoming season. Him, Karl, and Brad have been getting carried pretty hard by Pete's Malz recently... I'll be playing on a good connection tonight and tomorrow Cow, so get me the times you're going to be on Maui and your phone number and shit. Oh, and is Pete gonna make it over here too? I need to know how many releases I need to print for the Lava Cav
