Wasn't Expecting That...

Really wasn't expecting a Xin Zhao top at all. Thought that was more of a Season 2 champion pick for top lane. Either way, it really caught me off guard. I ended up giving first blood because he flash, knocked up, and ignited me. Was able to counter act it by just slow pushing the lane. The first time I did it, he jumped me and the minions did more damage then he expected. After that, he just let me push to tower and I did the same for him... for a little while. Unfortunately for his team, they had a troll Nidalee. The Nid wanted mid but was last pick. I am sorry guys but Pick Order always goes before call. If you don't get the role you want, you need to know how to play other roles. That's the game. Communication is key though. If you really want mid and don't trust yourself in other roles, you need to specify that, like so:

- "Prefer (role).. can (other roles)"
- "(Role) (Plox/Plz/preferred/please/etc)
- "Can go anywhere but (role)"

My personal favorite is: "Prefer (role)... can (role) if needed... and for the love of god, you don't want me (role)". Not kidding. That's what I say because I can't ADC worth a damn.

And speaking of communication, this game was mainly won due to having two other people on Curse Voice. I can't stress it enough. Even though the timers for dragon and baron are gone, it is still important to have because communication is so important. Yes you can use pings and chat but in the middle of a team fight, pings and chat are fairly tough ways of communication. I suggest everyone that is going to attempt to climb the ranked ladder to get this program. It's free and in open beta. Here's a link if you want to look into it: http://beta.cursevoice.com/

Overall though, despite their troll Nidalee, this game was a tough one. Good game.

I was Hungry

Had a pretty impressive game tonight as Renekton. Didn't really look at the team stats during the game because I was fairly busy dealing with my own lane and being ganked quite a few times by Wukong. Only one of his ganks were successful out of the many, which my mid and jungle responded by coming up to my lane and killing their jungler (I had already killed Shyvana by stunning her under the turret and igniting her) and taking the tower. Once we started grouping up, we were able to take objectives easily. The enemy team needed Baron to stop us from pushing and that really didn't help much. The best moment in this game was right at the end when we had a 4v5 team fight and Jinx, who was at base, noticed top lane pushing the inhib turret. She teleported down there and took the tower, the inhib, and the last standing nexus turret. She died for it, but it was the game winning decision because the enemy team couldn't old off the super minions. Even though our ADC was 1/16/6, we did well as a group. Overall, good game.

I haven't been doing so great the past few games, if you haven't noticed my W/L record in the past posts. I've been slowly going down in ranks, which really upsets me and more than likely makes me play worse because I feel more is on the line. This last game, I was at 0 LP in Silver IV. If I lost, I would be at Silver V, which is something I would rather not have. Well, as you guys know, I really only post wins unless it's a special occasion so...

This time around, I got lucky. My team was really organized and most of the members had Curse Voice so communication was easy. This game was won basically over communication. Besides being able to win every lane single handed by the laners, we were able to group up and take objects or defend without any really big hassle. It was really all thanks to communication due to 3 members of our team (including myself) having Curse Voice. So if you haven't got the hint, if you plan on playing some ranked games, get this Program. It's in open beta right now so you don't have to wait for a key. Get it now. And as usual, good game.

Starting Anew

Despite my performance in ranked yesterday, I came to the conclusion that I shouldn't give up the climb just yet. I feel I have an opportunity at my door step that I can't just let go. So...

I went Kayle top lane against Nasus. All I needed to do was keep pressure while he was attempting to farm. Early to mid, he was able to farm without any issues which upset me but didn't get me down. Once I started to roam, also when I got my lichbane, I ended up getting a Triple kill, which brought me back into the game. After that, every time Warwick jumped onto Vayne, I just ulted and took down the surrounding enemy targets, mainly targeting Riven and Nasus. Ashe wasn't that big of an issue because my duo partner (blacklvlagiik) kept him down in farm. Overall, good game.

Not Really Happy With Today's Outcome

05/29/2014

Just overall bad plays on my part. It really shows in my history on how poorly I played the past few games. Obviously here I only show case my wins but if you ever looked at my LoLking, which is linked on the right hand side, you would see that I don't just win. I wish all I did was win. The climb would be so much easier. But from what I have learned today is that my lane mechanics in mid lane need a lot of work. Despite how some of my Ziggs games come out, they aren't because I am carrying or winning my lane. Same with other games. Seems the only champ I can really pull through and win games with right now is Renekton. And to me, that isn't a good thing. It shows that I know my top lane mechanics very well but the game isn't all about one lane... unless it's ARAM. I have to figure out at least one more lane (and jungle preferably) to continue to climb the ladder. It shows that mid, jungle, adc, and support are all lacking because of my full on attention of top lane. If I were Gold 1 or higher, that wouldn't be a big issue. At that time I can keep a role and possibly there is a small enough of a community there that would recognize my name and know I am a top lane main. Only then can I stick to that one lane and not really worry about the other lanes too much. Until then, I will be doing a lot of homework to get myself caught up in those lanes and hopefully that will bring me back to where I need/want to be this season.

Lane Bully Mechanics

Finally picked up a win while duo queuing with blacklvlagiik. One thing this game shows is that you have to learn how to bully in lane if you are going to play top. This Shyvana didn't know how and it shows big time in her CS, my CS, and my KDA. I was able to keep her away from her minions the majority of the lane phase without being punished by her or Nocturne. You could say that the lack of jungle ganks was the problem, but I didn't have a single gank from Vi. Was straight out 1v1 until Nocturne started to come top to attempt to save the lane but ended up just giving me more kills. Every lane won in this match up and the numbers easily show that. Overall, a easily won game. Hopefully the enemy team learned something from this match up. They weren't 'bad' players, they were just out picked and out played.

I Think I Out Scale

I wasn't really worried at all about this match up, which is a change compared to my past matches. In an Orianna vs Ziggs lane, as Ziggs, you can constantly harass her until she gets her shield. Luckily for me, she didn't get that until level 3, which meant I got an early CS lead in lane. Which I also got her to burn her heal around level 3 because she shielded as she engaged, which I just kited and waited for shield to go away before bursting her down. I wasn't worried about the all in attempt because she didn't have ignite. I knew she wasn't going to be able to burst me down at level 3 but I could do that to her easily. Ended up getting her flash and heal in one trade. At this time, she tried to roam to make up for loss of CS, which is when I took her tower. After that, it was just one tower after another for us. My mid tower never went down which I am fairly proud of. Overall, good game.

Ryzing In The Top Lane

Oh my puns. They hurt so good. And so do my stuns. Kept Renekton at bay in the top lane. Allowed him to push hard and then I slow pushed all day. Was able to make it so Renekton had to roam to get anything. As you can see, he didn't do it well. Once we started to group, we just rolled over them. Overall, great game.

Top Lane Of Brothers

Was originally scared in this match up, which is starting to be a trend in my lane match ups. Either way, was able to keep him at bay while my team won their lanes. Basically I needed to farm up and keep him from farming as much as possible while not losing my lane. Made the game pretty passive until he started hitting me with his Q. That shit hurts. Specially when he has Sheen. Either way, was able to keep him at bay and my team eventually came up and we took two towers in one push. Good game overall.

Go Ahead, Camp My Lane

Had Twitch in my lane for the first 10 minutes of the game. They got two kills on me out of the numerous attempts at ganking me. One in which I was able to kill Swain before dying. Really didn't help him carry at all since everyone on my team knew fairly well how to keep Swain and Twitch from getting fed. Also, when Twitch realized that Swain wasn't going to carry, he went to other lanes, which allowed me to bully Swain even more. Main reason they even got those kills was that I wasn't able to ward for the ganks early enough. Either way, ended with a win. Good game.
