Well nothing in the final SS looks paticularly trollish. Just... suboptimal. (Soraka getting a weird second gold/5 item. Her gold after a 32 min game indicating that she isn't sporting gold/5 runes or masteries so she probably didn't ward much. Teemo in bot lane going AP instead of AD is a bit weird, but Teemos gonna tee. Rammus/renek getting some armor is fine seeing as you guys wer emostly AD. It's only really nocturne that seems to be about as useful as a paperweight).

[edit]

Wait... Laning nocturne.
Well, it explains the AP teemo but laning noc. WTF?

Janna was dead four times by the end of the laning phase by my count - 2 from derp fights around dragons. 8 by the end of the game. I'm not passing blame around neither though - we lost the game to three team-fights, two of which we all had responsibility for and one of which David has taken the blame for (as he should, derp).

Player: Qunsk

His win-rate with Gangplank is quite convincing, which was why I thought it would be a good idea. And indeed, he caught herostratus twice. That he threw the game had nothing to do with the plank, could've done that with any champ.

Although I get a rep in this thread for having blinders on regarding the meta, this is almost solely because I call out some people on their retardation and instead of arguing points with me they shout "lol only follow what pros say fotm-slave sheep". I believe Gangplank is a very strong choice at our ELO, but more importantly I think what's important at our ELO is how well people play champs. Qunsk's Gangplank is much better than his Lee Sin for example, and in a battle with noobs like us that's going to matter 5000000 times as much as the strength of the champion

I recently got my internet issues worked out. (that complaint I usually made on skype about my neighbour downloading donkey porn turned out to be true. ISP capped his download speed to 100k since we're all on a shared switch. Helped immensely). I immediately followed celebrating my low ping with a 14-win streak in ranked.

Stacking archangels

1) GP ganks much better before 6. Like, much, much better. Early ganks are meta, didn't you know?

2) As I said, in the context of this game it matters more how well people play champs than how good the champs are, unless we're talking severely underpowered champs. Qunsk plays a very, very good plank.

3) The great thing about GP is that he's pretty good through all phases of the game.

GP might not be a top tier jungler, but the minor differences in power doesn't matter that much in our level. And he did beat you pretty hard early game even though you were playing Lee Sin (basically his counter)

People just don't know why his Roger is so Jolly.

Gangplank is in a good place. A player who is proficient with him can do well both in jungle and in lane. Is he top tier? No. But top tier anything usually just means part of its kit is hideously broken at the moment. Unless you're 2k+ GRUNKERs chances are someone who's good at a tier 2-3 champion will consistently outperform someone who's merely average with a tier 1.

Ah, I don't pay attention to the order things appear in on the post-game screen. I frequently reorder my items (to get clickables into slot 1/2, placing items that will be sold later or combine into other items in slot 5/6, moving boots for better feng shuei etc). But if she built GA before anything else then it is indeed a lolwat moment.

(GA ES #1! ALWAYS RESPAWN NEVER DIE! HUEHUEHUEHUEHUE!)

But she deals true damage, man! TRUE DAMAGE!

NERF IRELIA!

If you don't consider him winning the early game we won't agree, I'm afraid, and I'm not just talking that one invade in the start. We commented quite intensely in Skype on how you started dragons at weird times and got caught in weird positions in this jungle. You almost single-handedly gave us a free drag at one point, but then we EXTREME DERPED and you ended up getting it because me and Qunsk made a retarded decision to chase you into your own jungle instead of just letting you go and take drag - this spawned the first team fight in which we got raped. Your team even commented on it in all "lol, first time a fight at dragon ended in our favour". I'm not saying this to anger you or sound arrogant (it was one game, anyone can play bad one early game), but because of this:

I don't think it's fair to blame either your top or your mid for the early jungle situation in that game, especially not Roxor since he allivated some of it by having pretty good presence all around.

I never claimed it was, I claimed it was because of Qunsk's awareness and the fact that he could afford to do it is because he had the health and the map control to do it, which he probably would not have had playing another champ.

My whole point was that GP is better than another champ because Qunsk is better GP. Saying this:

Is missing the point.
