Also Wes I'm not gonna deal with it so deal with me not dealing with it.

 

[bassem6]

[Raziek]

So last night, 5-man Lylo (The D-Games Ranked 5s team) played its first two games, as mentioned before.

I am proud to present, BSL's masterwork from last night.

Starring BSL (bsltiger) AS SKARNER!

Featuring:

Ryker (GSRyker) as Graves!
Armor (Romra) as Nunu!
Raziek (Raziek) as Jayce!
Washed Laundry (WashedLaundry) as Fizz!

and victimizing

Sponge Bobble as Ezreal!

We present to you the following gif, made entirely by BSL.

 

[BSL]

'Twas a good day.

 

[Turazrok]

Lol you almost look good.

 

[#HBC | Ryker]

I forgot his name was Sponge Bobble.

 

[Asdioh]

Spoiler

Is it possible to get any more FotM than that? Serious question.

Amumu, Zyra, Rengar all in top 4 highest winrates. Taric's up there too, more usage than Sona. Only reason Ezreal wasn't picked, I assume, is because he was banned.

Been on loading screen for like 10 minutes. Everyone is at 100%, but Graves still hasn't connected. I'm hoping my game didn't crash without telling me >_<

 

[#HBC | Ryker]

Sona/Graves, methinks.

 

[JTB]

Substitute zyra for morg

 

[Asdioh]

Oh hey, turns out my game DID "crash." There was NO SIGN of it crashing, it just had everyone at 100% except for Graves, figured he had a toaster.
I figured it had been long enough, Alt F4ed, restarted, game was 14 minutes in.

Riot and pvpnet #1

yea, I've been having this happen a lot recently, it's pretty annoying.

 

[Asdioh]

and of course you get reported by your entire team (who of course got ***** without you)

because it's totally your fault

 

[Espy Rose]

Had the same problem once before. Luckily I realized VERY fast that it was my computer. I was only behind by 2 minutes.

I can play today and tomorrow after 3. I'm kinda meh though, buuuuu~t I can use someone screaming at me what I'm doing wrong.

 

[Omni]

Does anyone have an issue with the server randomly bringing up the "Attempting to Reconnect" message over and over even though your internet is working fine?

Happens to me randomly once every 5-6 games.

Your patience to wait that long.... lol

 

[ToferTheHuman]

That has happened many times, but for me League will just close itself and completely lock out.
I have to go into task manager close it and reopen it.

 

[Geoberos]

*Is in Skype with LoL groups*
"Beros what are you doing at fountain? The game already started."
"What? I'm still at the loading screen-- I'm loaded but this guy's been at 80% for forever. ... ****, reopening League."
Having friends that give you hints that League loading screen has crashed, somewhat better.

And no, no reconnection problems with good internet, but hard to say when my internet is prone to occasional lag spikes which do give me a reconnect bar for 3 seconds every so minutes.

I occasionally get crazy ping spikes, like 800 ping, but it's pretty rare. Saw attempting to reconnect like one time.

Your patience to wait that long.... lol

I just turned firefox back on for part of the time. I've seen the occasional toaster/calculator computer before so that's what I thought it was, figured the game would GIVE A SIGN that it crashed >=(


Immediately after that game, I had another 4v5. YEEEEE
The best part was that the other team had the same Zyra, so that guy got two free 5v4 wins in a row. Then he and my mid taunted each other in broken English in the postgame lobby.


I had to go top (ugh) and was laning against a Jayce (ugh.) Didn't know who to pick so I went Kayle. Lane was going alright until he got THE MIGHTY PHAGE and outtraded THE **** out of me even though I had Doran's Blade and Ninja Tabi.

No idea what to do/who to pick against Jayce in lane. I've won the lane before as Voli, but I assume it was against a bad one.

 

[Ussi]

Jayce walked into a bar

There were no counters


Also my last 3 queues have not been able to get the role i want (support) had to dodge the last two cause my adc ability will not carry

 

[ShroudedOne]

I like walking through Jayce's Acceleration Gate. It's so much fun.

Interestingly enough, I don't see him that much (I'm assuming it's because he's kinda complex).

 

[Espy Rose]

Oh my god that joke.

 

[Asdioh]

As Jayce:
you don't want to trade anymore? knock them away.
you want to harass? use your poke ability
gotta go fast? use R or acceleration gate.
you DO want to trade? %health move, knock away move, poke with ranged autoattacks.

I don't play Jayce, but I assume that's how it works. His only weakness seems to be mana, and the one I was against didn't run out of mana. Just checked my opponent's profile, he had a strong AD/armor pen runepage, and 9/10 of his last matches were jayce, with one being rengar. Guess he knows what he's doing :[

I've heard Rengar beats Jayce, but I don't know how credible that is.

 

[Ussi]

"Jayce" and "mana issues" aren't in the same sentence without "does not have"

Mana creep after all

 

[ShroudedOne]

Frozen Heart is a thing on Jayce anyways, I assume, so his non-existent mana issues wouldn't be an issue.

 

[Asdioh]

Aww... but one of his mana costs was increased just last patch! ;_;

 

[Z'zgashi]

Unless youre throwing out your whole combo between both forms constantly without ever attacking in hammer form, you shouldnt have mana problems lol.

 

[Asdioh]

So is there any consensus on who does well against him? Nunu maybe? o.o

 

[Ussi]

Yorick at low levels but if you don't take over lane he passes you

 

[Skadorski]

Can anyone log on?
It says "server is busy" for me, but it says the server is fine.

 

[Espy Rose]

I got on just fine.

 

[Ussi]

Spectator Mode

You may now spectate any game being spectated by a player on your friends list

BEST CHANGE IN COMING PATCH! Been wanting this so long

Xin got nerfed, Q no longer crits the bonus damage.

 

[PhantomX]

Why would they nerf Xin again? WHY RIOT, WHY!?
