Won my first series game of 3 with the help of Chingyi3 (I would link his profile but I can't get on LoLking). Had fourth pick and I know that Chingyi3 is a better jungler than I am, so I went support. Lucky for us, we had a decent Draven on our team. Actually had a talk with the Morgana on the after-game results page and tried to help her understand that it wasn't just one person who threw the game for them but their lack of team work. She had none of what I had to say and bitched me out. Anyways, one down and one more to go!

Congratulations to Darahas on making his promotional series to Silver 1. Now, he gets to help me with my promotional games to Silver 4. Not as exciting but still just as important. Although, this game was rather weird. In mid was their Jayce. In top lane was Riven. Lee Sin was jungling. That seems kind of normal up until Brand and Taric were bot lane. Had no clue what they were expecting to do but it was working until we pulled together to force several fights for Baron and getting towers instead, than repeating the process. Worked out for us. Great game and again, congratulations Darahas!
~Enaio~ So, just got out of this game. I actually lost a game before this due to a summoner named wiggily. I am not even gonna link his LoLking because he is that bad. If you didn't notice, he is actually on the opposite team this time around. Let's just say, I got my revenge on him this time around. Great game overall and so happy I was able to carry so hard this game. Almost had a penta too... damn that Janna.
~Enaio~ Doing some duo queue ranked games with Darahas. Getting last pick means I have to support. Lovely... Lucky enough for us the enemy team was getting trolled by someone who wanted to play the new champion. He wasn't very good. Although, when it came to team fights, our Miss Fortune kept leaving right before the fight and then they would engage when we were down a person. She blamed the team but it was truly her fault. Either way, the last team fight I hit my Ult perfectly onto Quinn and that caused a chain of stuns on her which allowed us to Ace them for the final push to their Nexus. Great game.
~Enaio~ Out of four games, 2 being normal draft games, 1 a custom bot game, and the last being a Co-op Vs. AI, I think I have finally figured him out. That doesn't mean I am a master of him but I can play him confidently enough to take him into a ranked game... I believe. I do want to practice more with him before I take him into ranked but that is just personally preference.
~Enaio~ Yet another great game as Leona. I will say that she is, without any doubt, my best support by far. I am a decent Taric and Sona, but my Leona is just a whole different tier. This game was awesome. Duo queuing with Chingyi3. Had a great first blood on Twitch. Right as I hit level 2, I threw out my E and snagged him. Just overall, great game play from both teams. Oh and by the way.... Yeah... Another... for Silver VI. Hope to god this time when I get to the series for Silver III, I don't get trolled like last time.
~Enaio~ After getting trolled really hard by people in normals, I figured I would have better luck in ranked. I was really lucky because I got a team that had great communication. Early on in the game, I gave Orianna a kill, trying to bait her into a gank that went sour. I got her really low but Trundle got intercepted by Lee Sin and died chasing. After that, I ended up counter jungling Lee Sin as much as possible and that helped take his exp/gold lead away. I was really lucky and killed Orianna after she got her blue buff. Once I got blue buff, the game turned around and I was able to win my lane. Amazing plays through out the whole game. Good game.
~Enaio~ Still kind of tired after pulling an all night-er on Saturday night so that I knew I was up to admin the MOBAfire EUW Community Cup on Sunday. Since I was tired, I felt that playing a ranked game would be a bad idea. Ended up going into a normal draft. Early on I had 3 kills and 4 assists... because Leona had the same issue I use to have, kept last hitting targets with her spells right as I would get an auto attack out to kill the target. That wasn't that big of a deal. Our biggest issue this game was that our first pick was our top laner, Trynadmere. He ended up getting counter picked hard by Teemo. Luckily for him, Leona and I over ran bot lane, even when their jungler ganked. Although, I will say, once they started to roam, we couldn't handle them at first because we kept spread out. After we grouped up, we over ran them. My favorite part was after a team fight, I went bot lane to clear and Teemo followed me. I used my E and Blade of the Ruined King active to cut him down to half health, at this time he used his blind on me. I went into the bush so he couldn't get any damage out on me while I was blind and I used my Q to get a little bit more damage on him. That was just enough for me to take him out. In all chat, he stated, "Can't carry this hard". Rather good game, although, the enemy team blamed Orianna because she went afk for less than a minute. That was annoying...
~Enaio~ So I haven't done much for MOBAfireTV. I loved doing what I did for them but it took away time from everything I wanted to do and I really didn't get much from it. When I left, the team wasn't really that strong and I didn't expect for them to get much further off the ground. I don't mean that in a bad way, I just didn't see much strength within the team and no strong ideas being created.
What did I do for MOBAfireTV? Well, I have all the videos I was a part of in the MOBAfireTV tab. I started out as a voice over person for their videos and than was asked to create a 'video series', which was the MOBAfireTV champion guides. I even suggested that we needed to sponsor streamers or do some sort of streaming through Twitch. After getting the videos off the ground, I was 'promoted' to Assistant Video Manager. Now... I did everything without any pay. Why? I was expecting it to be a great place to get my name out there into the LoL/MOBA community. After being promoted, I still didn't get any form of payment. I didn't expect it. Basically the 'job title' was like getting a supervisor position at a fastfood chain - Pretty Title for no 'extra' pay. So be it. I stopped doing the videos because I needed to focus on my actual job, the one that did pay the bills. After I left, everything they started to do I was completely against. Now to the main point of what this post is about. According to what I have heard, and this might be old news to everyone, but they apparently created some sort of 'scam' with their new stream. From what I have researched, they embedded their stream onto every page of their website at 1x1 resolution and muted so that they could stack up viewers and ads. That might not be the 'exact' thing that they are being 'accused' of doing. I truly have no clue if this is the truth. If it is, I don't even want to put the videos that I was a part of on my website. I am 100% proud with my videos but trash 'moves' like that make those videos look like nothing. What they are being accused for is completely against everything I am about and it is against the agreement you make with Twitch to even start streaming. But again, I can't find any conclusive evidence besides that the stream isn't up anymore. Would I work with MOBAfireTV again? I am not sure. Again, I loved participating in making the videos and I would love to do something like that agian, but with MOBAfire, I am not sure. Maybe if I was paid, but truly, why would they pay me? I'm just another Joe in Silver League (as of right now). I don't want to completely say no to that question, but I don't want to have anyone think that I would definitely jump on the wagon again. To the people who are still a part of the MOBAfireTV team that are reading this. Don't take offense from this post. This is all from my prospective and not being an active member of the team makes my vision a little blurred. I think that you all do a great job and should stick to it. ~Enaio~ Some more duo queue games with Chingyi3. For some odd reason, during pick, we had some confusion on who was going ADC. Andorin and Wrogen had 1st and 2nd pick, and they both went with ADCs. Both of us were hating this game because we just got done with a game that had the worst players you could imagine, but that's not the point. Luckily, this Draven actually knew what he was doing and said he would go top lane. We still doubted him but whatever. I give that kid credit, he did good against Vladimir. What's even better is that I pulled some of the best stuns ever on Leona. And Chingyi3 was playing the new champion, Aatrox, which we already know that he plays amazing as him. Overall, horrible picks turned into a good game.
