I really hate it when I have to jungle. Never been my thing. Got forced into it this game since I was last pick, and the enemy team already grabbed Taric.
Woo. Never really had a good opportunity to gank. I think most of my kills were from me ulting through the enemy team and picking off the enemy Taric when he was low. (I’m *guessing* people were focusing him instead of the people who were doing damage?)
Oh, hey, someone else wants to play Taric this game. I’m okay with that.
Okay, game starts… and he’s disconnected. And so is Morde.
Awesome.
At least Morde came back, but there’s not much you can do.
Do not like Udyr, no sir.
Sucks that they had their jungler DC. Hate that.
Oh, yeah, this is why.
Had to get a game in with him before the flamethrower nerf goes in. And man, gotta love just bullying a Riven around.
Especially when Pants shows up to gank, and I turn it around with his ult to turn it into a double kill. 😀
I’m… confused. Taric got banned?
…I guess that’s fair. Sona it is, then.
A little historical perspective: Sona, before I went on this Taric streak, was my most-played champion in Ranked. (Something like 24 games.) Figured after her buffs last patch, might as well take her out for a spin. And dear lord, I forgot that she can hit like a truck with those power chords. Playing her aggressive with those is definitely a nice change of pace from stun/shatter all the time.
And that ultimate. Music to my earholes.
Of course, someone else beat me to Taric.
The old adage about the side who has the most Tarics wins was definitely true this one. The more I play/see him played, the more I think he really is the best support out of all of them.
True story: This was the first time I’ve ever played Twitch in a game against humans. And yes, it was a ranked. Oh dear lord, is he fun. Especially with a Blitz grabbing the opposing team all the time and dragging him to me, so I could set up the attack speed buff from Ambush to just moiderize things.
Huh, apparently I’m having a good streak where I win with everything except Taric lately.
Havn’t played him in a while, so getting used to the blight stack mechanic took some time. Also gotta remember to not get into a duel versus Caitlyn in the brush, since you *will* lose it due to her passive. Dem headshots.
Playing cautiously definitely paid off that game. Only two deaths!
Oh, look, a 800-ish ELO game where someone DC’d. Look at my surprised face. At least it worked in my favor this time.
I *am* surprised, however, that the game even started. Surely looked like the Jax was a forced random from being AFK.
MF mid was actually pretty painful during laning. Didn’t know that building her with AP was a thing, though. Was pretty proud of the blind-fire kill where she was recalling under her tower at 11:37.
Extremely tired from being out in the rain all evening at work? Check.
Team-mate in solo-queue ranked wants to play Sej bot? Check.
BOOM, BABY, BOOM! YEAH, BABY, I WANNA BE BAD! I’M MAKING GRAVY WITHOUT THE LUMPS!
Okay, this game was less of a Ziggs game, and more of a “holy crap Darius is destroying everything he gets his hands on, who ever let this ult go live?” kind of game.
Also love it when I mis-time a Satchel jump and just face-plant into a wall instead.
