Stacking magic resistance early helped negate most of the problems from fighting Ryze and Teemo. Getting the sash proved invaluable in single and group fights. First time I've ever used sheen with Gragas. Will investigate this further...

Tehk and I work well together. We should. We're brothers, and have played together since I placed a controller in his hand and he thought he was playing A Link to the Past cooperatively with me.

Overconfidence killed me. Thrice. Oh well. We won anyway, thanks to tehk and thecpt and their extraordinarily fast ganks.

How've I faired against the competition? Take a look at the screenshots below.

Until I get more organized again, here's a bunch of stats screens I've had sitting in my folders. Please note the switch to Fiddlesticks.

I feel embarrassed putting this picture up. The team we faced only won due to the stacking of crowd control effects and status debuffs. In high level play, this SEEMS like a necessity. Not cool, yo.

Also, many not-so-nice comments were tossed my way when I backdoored the other team's base. I don't understand why. It's a legitimate tactic. QQ? Probably.

ANNND...I realized I should start placing NON League of Legends content in this section of the site. Next time I play something different I will. So...stay tuned until the weekend...

What a match. I hope many more of these lie in my future.

Streamed this match at my Justin.tv account. In case you weren't watching, I was criticized heavily by a teammate for "backdooring." If that's a foreign term to you, imagine a castle with its walls in shambles and its king sitting at the throne, just waiting to be kidnapped, maimed, hugged, or whatever. Now imagine all of his troops are a day's away fighting in a nearby town. If you're a rival king or general, wouldn't you sneak around the troops and go for the kingdom's jugular? 

That's what I did. I ripped into his jugular like a starved fat kid disregarding the wrapping on a Hershey's bar. Om nom nom...

I'm starting to really like Nidalee, and it feels dirty. She's the druid of LoL, right? SinceEwwww.

Despite the bad stats, I had a blast playing this match. I somehow leveled exponentially faster than most of the enemies and tried ganking them 1v3. Sometimes I'd win, sometimes I'd lose horribly. Also, poor poor Sokyl. He (or she?) was actually pretty good. Too bad the rest of his (her?) team didn't know what the hell they were doing.

Brendon and I chatted about the game afterwards and here's a bit of the conversation:

ME: like I said, I wish I was recording that match
Brendon: Might get sued for taking advantage of the mentally disabled
