Game 23 – Xin/Darius: Carry Hards

I’ve harped on before about how it sucks to be stuck in a 4v5, and how there’s usually little you can do.

Well, this is honestly a 4v5 where, as the 5, we probably could’ve lost. I mean, look at the teams. Darius (Mr. Bullshit Ult Quadra-Kill) & Xin could carry extremely hard, and let’s not forget Akali or Ashe in there too.

And then look at our team. Ez was AP. Amumu was apparently trolling or something. Zyra had… double Archangel’s? Really?

No wonder it almost took 50 minutes.

(There actually was another Sidequest game before this, but didn’t really feel like talking about a 3v5.)

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 9 – Sona

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.
