I should have learned to just jump queue whenever I see an evelynn on my team. Two eves in a row, two losses in a row, both left too.

Die 4 times in lane, leave.
/90% of Evelynn players.

Last time I had a pub Eve on my team, I lucked out.  They actually did pretty well.  It happens.  Rarely.

Yea, I give up on LoL for today.

Several leavers, mid laners that rage and lose lane, useless evelynn, ryze and yi failing hard against nocturne and xin zhao.

It baffles me that it's possible to suck as Ryze against people of anywhere close to the same level of skill.

I lost 7 games in a row. So in typical, I don't care anymore fashion, 8th game I went rally smite Soraka in a team of all squishies (Gangplank, Kennen, Shaco, Ryze) and told my team to go screw themselves for instalocking and asking for tank.

Guess what?

We won. Again. Every single time I freaking troll build Soraka we somehow win. Fate has a really messed up sense of humour.

The only thing I used rally for was to tank towers... it's such a useless ability.

Sigh.... I guess in a messed up way, Soraka does technically count as a tank.

I just tried Ryze for the first time since his re-make in a coop game.  I still hate him so much.  I spent the first 3/4 of the game building Tear, Frozen Heart, and Banshee's... nothing but mana and tank items... and felt so crazy overpowered.  Anybody who came close got hit with r-q-w-q and was either instantly dead or forced to run away.  Bots are easy to beat because they're easy to manipulate.  This was the first time I didn't even try to manipulate them.  I just built pure tank items, walked up to the nearest enemy I could find at any given time, and nuked the shit out of them.  I didn't even need to employ any tactics or finesse.  Gah.  I have so little respect for Riot.

What do you guys think is the best ryze combo? If at full health, I go Q,E,W,Q,R,Q, whatever is up next. When missing health, I go Q,R,E,Q,W,Q, whatever is up next.

You should probably start with R.

Why? All it does is add AoE and spell vamp. Not useful for burst. And if you start with Q, the next ability will reduce the cd to almost nothing, allowing you to cast it again.

QRQ tends to be the most frequent opening I see.

I would like to do QRQ, but my cdr isn't high enough do do it instantly, I have to wait a little while and that gives them time to flash away.

I open with W a lot, particularly if I can't rely on someone else to snare/root for me. At the very least, it gives me a Q, and with an R or an E I can get off another Q before the root ends. It doesn't necessarily kill people (except for at a particular part of the game when I have mana and other people don't have MR yet), but it will win you positioning.

Caitlyn's laning is pretty ridiculous. Her kiting and harass are so crazy. By herself it's not that big of a deal since she's so squishy, but when she's in a duo lane with someone. Man, it ALMOST makes me want to lane against Urgot instead.

I feel like her skills are completely worthless in a teamfight though. For example, with the amount of time I spend in the animations of Q, W, or E, I would have done more damage with my regular autoattacks. Especially after IE. So my presence in a teamfight is very.... non-flashy so to speak. In fact, in the games I play with her... it's like I'm some sort of ghost in the middle of the teamfight that no one sees until I do something like say... use my ultimate.

Take Ashe or Miss Fortune. They use their skills so much that it's so easy to locate them in as big, hectic skirmish. MF practically broadcasts her location in every single teamfight with a giant arrow pointing at her. But Caitlyn and Tristana only autoattack. You have to actively and cognitively tell yourself to search for them, and it takes just a little bit longer than it would take to find say.... Mordekaiser. It's weird, but also kinda boring in a way.
