All I want is to get practice as Ashe, but every game

Instalock Trist
Instalock Cait
"Squid can i plx hav ashe"

And that's when I queue-dodge.

I can second what Umi said.

I took Rene, told our Blitz to bugger off and do something (instead of making mid or bot a living hell he jungled) while i soloed against Mao on top.Killed him twice then proceeded to rape the rest of the map without dying a single time.Luckily (or not) the enemy team wasn't as DERP as Umi's was.

I still can't figure out if these people are trolling or are seriously that bad, it's baffling how someone can be worse than at level one and a few hundered games under their belt, even if they are playing a new champ, you should atleast have a tinge of common sense that would allow you to play decently.

[umiman]

Indeed. My smurfs at level 1 play better than 1200 elo ranked.

[Knirisk]

Speaking of which... What ARE some good 1v5 characters? I don't want to keep losing so much.

[umiman]

Basically any characters that are way too strong. It also depends on your skill with them.

For example, for me a 1v5 champion is like Irelia (never loses her lane ever) who once fed is unstoppable. Or Gangplank, who when jungling will become super fed with his ridiculous ganks. And we all know what happens when Gangplank gets fed. Depending on my team and the enemy, I might also use Mordekaiser... n1 hue hue hue hue.

Some people might be able to do it with Cho Gath or Urgot. Or even Tryndamere or Yorick. Warwick too. Singed as well.

I think the qualities required are:
1. Good CC / Chasing ability.
2. Awesome damage.
3. Hard to kill.

So if you play a champion that meets those roles, you'll probably be able to do it fine. A good measure is if you've managed to literally 1v5 enemies with that champion before.

So recent game, I'm lagging like a mofo (and I picked akali a pretty twitch reaction char, go figure) anyways the lag was screwing me over, but I manage to play safe and get 22 kills -5 deaths at game end, my team was 20-45 and I single handily won us the game.  Everyone said I sucked in the after game....

[Cthulhu]

I just had a game that made me ask difficult questions.

"Do I really want to play a game that basically amounts to "Will I be on the team with the competent people or the fucktards today?"

"How did these people live long enough to own a computer?"

"Has society counteracted Darwinism too much?  Do I really want to live in a world where people this fucking criminally stupid live an entire century?"

Fuckin' deep shit man. 

[Knirisk]

Hmmmm. Only Veigar really fits those specifications, umiman, and he doesn't have a good chasing ability without flash/ghost. I don't have Gangplank nor really all that many of those characters. I should get Singed, though.

[Cthulhu]

Veigar can't 1v5 (Very squishy, very bursty) but he can carry bad teams if you get a good feed going.  One combo is enough to vaporize just about any non-tank in the game with the proper build.

EDIT:  Fucking fuckfuck, all I want to do is get some Ashe practice but sure enough, everyone instalocks carries.

[Dakk]

Veigar's one of the few mages that still can carry. Kass, Brand, Veigar, Malzahar, Karthus and Annie can snowball pretty hard if you don't stop them, all other mages assume a more supportive role in the endgame. Vlad used to be able to carry but now he barely does anything and his early game is really weak.

Also, if anyone wanna know were Kayle's new dance is from

[Cthulhu]

Just tried out Twisted Fate in a custom game.  Holy shit I love this guy.  Bouncing around the map ganking people and giving zero fucks, plus hours of farming the casino in pokemon means picking the right card is trivial.

[Bordellimies]

I'm few games from 6300 IP, and I'm thinking of buying Galio. Thoughts on him? Yes, I know he is underpowered, but he is gonna receive buffs and I like his playstyle. Plus, I'm not one of those Galios who stack MR all the way because of my passive when I have Trynd + GP + Yi against me.

[umiman]

Galio only does one thing in a teamfight. His ult. Granted it's pretty amazing but you need a good team to work with it. It's basically what Ashe has... on a shorter range...

What I'm worried about is the fact that outside of a lane... Galio doesn't really do any damage. Even tank Janna does more damage than Galio. I literally saw a 20 hp Nocturne with just a vampiric scepter kill a 100% hp Galio. And in the patch preview they said they were going to NERF his damage... So... err.... doesn't sound very promising.

I dunno though. I don't have much experience with him so I could be wrong but that's just what I think.

[Journier]

AP heavy teams hate galio :/

As morde i hate that stupid bastard.

I don't mind him losing dmg. He is a tank, after all.

Building some aura items would help my team even if enemies ignore me, no? Soul Shroud & Frozen Heart, those even give me mana+regen so I can cast shit more, Abyssal Scepter for more dmg and -resists to enemies,Aegis for obvious reasons..
