Duelman Wrote:ESL tourney on the horizon, anyone looking to form a team and compete? I know bob and I would be game. If not that's fine I'll just get my normal premade together (but I like SP'ers better).

 Had a nub Gangplank for a feeder, but we managed to pull out a victory...

Note: Had to stack FoN for additional MR. The other team was heavily made up of casters. >_>

I find it funny that sometimes Despair sometimes does some funny things. Yesterday on one of my losing games, there was this one Kass that kept running/teleporting around our mid 3rd row turret, and I had Despair on as I tried to counter him. He got killed (I got the credit for the kill) but it was funny as hell about how I did it (I was just turret hugging and just waiting for that Kass to stop running around like a mofo)

Unleashing Wrote:Honestly with merc shoes and banshees and a FoN you should rather have gotten HP, that'd have given you more surviveability :/
Yet another FoN seems kind of stupid to me.
You also got the staff x.x you lack HP items tbh.

Quote:Summoners,

You asked for organized weekly tournaments and we’re here to deliver!

We saw how the ESL Go4LoL & Master Series provided an awesome experience for our European competitors, so now we want to bring all of you the same experience on this side of the pond.

The ESL will be running two competitions for North Americans:

1.The Go4LoL Tournament Series starts with weekly $100 one day tournaments that culminate in $1,000 finals for the teams that earn the most placement points during the month.
2.The National ESL Premier League will be an invite division where the best of North Amerca compete for $5,000. The top teams will be invited to compete against their European counter-parts in the ESL Major Series. Stay tuned for more details on this division.
All of these events will also be a part of the Season One Circuit, which means that the top eight teams in each event will earn Circuit Points that advance them ever so closer to being invited to the $100,000 tournament at the end of Season One. You can find the North American standings here.

Duelman Wrote:Well basically if we did form a tourney team it'd be more for the daily/weekly $100 tourneys not so much for the major part of it.

We would need to practice together in normal/ranked 5's to gain synergy together and use vent/TS.
It would be a fun experience I think for some of the more seasoned players here.

So we start out, and Nasus dcs, he was gonna take mid and I'm like "uhh... ok I'll take it since no one else wants to"... the mid enemy: Karth, I had never even seen one playing, so I ask "anything I should be aware of?" and all I get is "His ult hits everyone".... Well point is I go there, and he has this annoying huge ranged little aoe sort of mine that is the mother of harrasing, seriously I just hated it, I had to b like twice per level, he killed me once only though.... Then when he got to 6, he started using his ult to kill karma everytime, bot guys got her weak and he'd take care of her.
Anyway, at some point I say "I give up, this guy is too OP" and the friend I joined the game with tells me not to leave because w had lost nasus already, I wasn't gonna leave anyway, it was just frustration speaking. After that we lost several team fights, but they only liked to push mid which didn't work quite well, we always had someone alive there saving our last turret.
Finally, I don't know what the hell got into us, but we had them scared, I killed the death guy once or twice and Heim was all over their team with the rocket, we decide to Baron and push, we kill baron, and then we get ganked and only our Yi survives ( he escaped full health ). Next thing we notice when the 3 of us are dead is that Yi is done with their top inhib turret and the enemy sion gets to him, after some resistance he dies. Anyway, I don't even know what happened anymore but we won I'm happy.

Edit: oh yeah nasus relogged at some point late in game and started jungling. Also I remembered that being aggressive as balls is what got us the game, I just went all over the mob of champions with tibbers + w, then died and my team took care of them.

TL;DR: The deathguy champion is OP in early stages but then he became annie's peach.

KajitiSouls Wrote:RoA would have been fine, and at that point, I would recommend Sunfire Cape actually.

\/\/ Stacking MR would have destroyed them.

WillDaSnail Wrote:I'm not sure if Sunfire would be the appropriate choice. Sure the HP is fine, but I'm not dealing with any Physcial-hitting champs most of the time. Though the Sunfire Aura would be nice....

@ Bolded: What do you mean? :f6:

 Great Game!

Notice the assist scores. Bottom team was AoE comp, top team was kill-someone-really-fast comp.

The other team has 5x Ignite. That's overkill, but nevertheless very annoying.

No one had a kill streak higher than 4. Double kills all over the place.

Malphite and me were top solo lanes. Scales were slightly tipped against him when you factor in the ganking.

Kills were even across the team lines. What sealed the deal was Baron Nashor. Half of late game was spent going back and forth fighting for control.
