Speaking of terrible games, had an ARAM match as Ezreal. We had no supports, they had a Sona and Nami. In spite of the sustain advantage and our Mundo constantly feeding them by charging in 1v5, I managed to keep picking up kills with my QW poke when they got cocky, and the only thing that I couldn't really deal with was their Gangplank, who was pretty much singlehandedly carrying (he was something like 9/0/12 by the time I killed him). Meanwhile our Malzahar joined our Mundo in feeding repeatedly as we were ground down. Damned near every time it happened I would ping and follow them in, getting off as much damage as I could, even blowing ults just to try and push the enemy team back, which actually worked somewhat, because I had already finished TF/IE/PD/Zerks, so I could dish out a lot of hurt.

The point where I just plain gave up and started headdesking was when I watched our ~1/5 health Mundo chasing the entire enemy team, most of whom were still at ~1/2 health, with no one but me a decent distance behind him, frantically pinging at him and asking him to stop chasing. Naturally they turned and gobbled him. Then the Mal did the same thing. I mean, I could kill all of them save Gangplank reliably, but with two people feeding (though Mal didn't feed as much because he spent half the game lagging out), one guy not doing much, and only the Kat being helpful, it was only a matter of time. The only bright side is that the feeders weren't blaming us for not helping them suicide rush.

Possibly got reported for something silly

You can't report based on after-game chat, unless they buffed the Tribunal. Even if its copy-pasted, the Tribunal is reviewed by players, and there's no way that Kat will be able to communicate that after-game chat to all of them (or even know which ones are reviewing the case). If you didn't do anything bad in-game, just don't worry about that report. You also don't get sent to the Tribunal on one offense (to my knowledge), so its no big deal. If Kat reported you for that then she was being dumb.

[Sindain]

Yeah, you need a history of reports before you show up on the tribunal.

I don't recall any new spellvamp items being added (his main one is still Will of the Ancients)

I meant Spectral Wraith, which seems to be the big thing on Vlads now, 10% cdr is awesome.

And I still think my thing is worse.  My lane got hideously shut down and our support didn't rotate up top until they were pushing my second tower and it was too late D: D: D:

ARAM

Enemy Team: Graves, Poppy, Singed, Nidalee, and Twisted Fate
My Team:  Evelyn, Heimerdinger (me), Leona, Shaco, and Kayle

Team comps are kinda unbalanced.  Kayle quits immediately.  We hold out for almost 40 minutes.  Damn that Kayle... but it was still pretty epic and fun.  We aced them like 10 times at our Nexus.  We also end with significantly higher score than the enemy.

My favorite part -- the last team fight of the game that we won, everyone was saying their ggs, because our Nexus had only a sliver of health left and they had Poppy.  Poppy ults and goes for the nexus, and it's over.  Poppy ults me.  I have turrets ready to go with an ult, and the blind bomb.  Poppy never hits the nexus.

Toxic toxic toxic toxic

Just had the worst (most toxic?) game ever.  Went solo top Trundle which is already a high-risk move in blind pick because he destroys most melee tops but can't do anything against ranged tops (And I don't do normal draft because I'd rather get accidentally outpicked than watch my teammates deliberately pick Veigar into Kayle)

Anyway, the enemy has a weird comp, Garen, Jungle Lee Sin, Jayce, Gragas, Jinx.  I figure Gragas is going support and Jayce mid, which leaves Garen to get owned top by the Troll.

I get up there and it turns out the Garen and Jayce are a duo-queue, both top.  Meanwhile our Volibear has decided to do a full clear of the jungle, and when he finally gets up to me he waits until I'm dead to head up and feed them another kill.

Worst.

Honestly, if the enemy team has no jungler, and you're Trundle top against two people, I'd say screw it, too. I'd clear out as much jungle as I could, while stopping by to make sure your tower doesn't get pushed too hard. Your lane is pretty much unwinnable unless the enemies make mistakes. I can gank other lanes no problem, or shove them down, since there is no jungler to help them, but you're pretty much on your own.

It doesn't really matter what our team was.

Yes, that TF build Runaan's and a Hydra. Yes, he took Teleport on Twisted Treeline. (And yes, our Fizz was a monster. Not that it was particularly hard with the people who were opposite us.)

i wish they could revamp kassadin, be it a mage or asassin its really complicated to play with him, mostly due to its melee status, with that so low health is hard to get on an enemy without loosing half of your life, the ultimate doesnt make it easier. -_-

... What.

Kassadin IS an assassin. If you're dying, then it's not the character's fault. And, on top of that, most assassins are melee. So, I'm not entirely sure what you're doing wrong, but try to look at how you're playing. Are you porting right on top of them expecting to kill them? Because that can work if you're fed enough. If you're not fed, you could try poking the enemy down with Qs.

In fact, you might want to consider watching this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8W5GAFxHOI&feature=c4-overview&list=UUeGtVfZD9LVttCJzjIJLY1g

There's a lot on mid lane mechanics, but there's stuff about melee vs. ranged you might want to consider watching.

[xaritscin]

is the only asassin i have right now, but kassadin doesnt have enough speed and power compared to other asassins like master yi or katarina, they're annoying as hell, the only thing i can do is keep the enemy silenced or slow it down but i dont have the power to make a good kill with that, i've played with zed and akali and while all asassins have the same way of play (hit and run or stealth attacks), kassadin doesnt have a fast combo, maybe extent its 3rd powers with a longer cone so you can slow the enemy, teleport and hit it in the front. but he needs a good combo. also is very complicated to keep a lane with him at the start, teleport only serves as a platform to escape the enemy for a short time but i would leave the lane vulnerable...

im a new in LoL but i have had more victories with tanks, supports, shooters and warriors than with this guy, and is disappointing cause i think its a champ with potential....

[Bormok, God of Mud]

Kassadin is actually quite strong, you might want to check out some guides on him for tips on how to play him.

I'd give some advice if I had any, but I've only gotten Kass a few times in ARAMs and I did not do so well, heh.

the problem is that he doesnt have enough speed to get out of the action, i can use the Q to annoy the enemy but he'll come eventually, the W only helps when i have other powers, as for the E it's only helpfull when the enemy is near enough, but the cone is too short, the ideal thing would be to slow the enemy at enough distance so you can use R. it doesnt make sense to have so much mana when you cannot keep a good pace with the enemy, you get stunned and you're done.....some other asassins can escape that. kassadin cannot. not enough health...

[frostshotgg]

Actually, that's not the idea for E. The idea is you R in and the QE so they can't run away while you wait for R to come back up and nuek them again.

how im supposed to do that if the enemy can stun me, jax or xin zhao for example......master yi can practically KO you with crits, i cannot just jump to the enemy and kill it swiftly, he doesnt have that power......

[Frumple]

... why would you be jumping jax or yi instead of the support, AP, or ADC carry? Squish the squishies.
