Sidequests – Game 18 – Zyra

This game was dumb. It gives me mind cancer. It’s hurting my ideas.

Mid-lane wasn’t too bad to start off. Was a little down on CS when I had to retreat after a failed Flash-Tibbers gank attempt, but was still okay. And then Darius tries to gank Annie under her tower.

…Man, it’s nice of Darius to give *her* buffs, since I sure as hell wasn’t getting any. Top got counter-picked hard, and Vayne was apparently running Jungle runes instead of her normal ones.

All in all was a pretty “wat” game. Sort of wished I played Ziggs for it, but I figured Zyra went un-picked or banned, might as well try to get some games in with her until she gets nerfed like a Paladin.

Game 26 – Wat.

So there was a game before this one where I didn’t actually save the screenshot or replay due to it being just awful. I mean, having to lane as Taric with a Fiddlesticks as a partner, because the Fidds was throwing a temper tantrum and feeding because they banned the character he wanted to play?

Yeah, not subjecting anyone else to that except for the Tribunal.

So instead, we got this game. Kayle/Swain Bot was a… interesting… lane to go against. I think the Swain was AFK during character select and accidentally random’d. But, at least they played it out instead of just feeding or something stupid. I *will* say it was a freaking bloody match. Wonder if it was related to the fact they didn’t have a jungler, so they were playing more aggressive.

Sidequests – Game 13 – TURBO ON!

How to sum this game up in song:

Granted, I didn’t actually *grab* a Banshee, since I didn’t need the mana, but I front-loaded my tanky & MR items, and flipped the bird to Karthus.

Going 2/0/1 in the first three minutes from their “failed” invasion didn’t hurt, either. 😀 And dat triple kill. Might go back in with the replay and get a screenshot.

Sidequests – Game 6 – Starts with a Z…

I’m noticing a theme. Whenever I don’t have to play support in a ranked, it’s always mid that’s open. And why would I play a lesser AP mid when I could play Ziggs? 😀

Dear lord, those long-range bombs just *screw* other mids over. Especially when you get good with them and can bounce them from directions they’re not expecting. Was able to stay far enough away that Veigar couldn’t really get a stun-cage off.
