I had a shower thought today after swimming.

Rather than having a Leaver Buster queue thingie where you just walk away from your computer for however many minutes your penalty queue lasts, or getting temporary banned for a few hours or days or whatever, why not make all punishments band that work exactly like SA bans where you can lift your ban instantly for :10bux: but otherwise it's permanent. In fact, make it cost an additional :10bux: every time you get banned so that toxic whales make Riot hundreds of dollars per login. This also encourages people who are unwilling to spend real money on League of Legends to just not be toxic assholes.

And then I farted, and it smelled like soap.

Sky is now having his second round table in as many years about how he secretly respects women and all the misogynist things he says are just you misunderstanding him.
I don't play league but if it's anything like last time it's going to be four hours of amazingly sad and pathetic drama.

Wait, all I remember of this guy is making a lot of obnoxious youtube videos with janky jump cut all over the place. When did he start spouting misogynist poo poo? Is it because he started hanging out with Thorin or something?

you can make bushes -- and then walk into the bushes to hide. brilliant. the enemy will just think there is a random bush growing in the middle of the lane, and that the melee minions are doing a poo poo job in yard maintenance. that is when you hop out of the bushes for the gank surprise.

Nah man it's way less about the brushes, way more about shielding and healing every 3 seconds and then landing a root that enables horrible death. Best thing I've found for brushes is hiding a dragon kill and that's about it

There's still a bunch of ambiance and fluff audio that comes off characters that I'd like to get rid of as well. I already have voices off, I'm not crazy.

if you overextend as malz mid vs a 5-0 shaco do you automagically win the game when you flame your jungler in the chat?????

I would argue that as a Malz against a 5-0 Shaco, existing on the map is overextending.

Jungle has been my best found method at rising through the ranks. Is it just that there's so much more money in it now that they dropped the smite buffs?

Jungle is absolutely the highest impact role currently, the amount of gold/exp in the jungle this season is the highest it's been in ages (ever?).

3 o'clock in the morning. i looked out the lane, and there was a fuckin baby in the jungle. and the baby didn't even look scared, he was just standing there. i just cranked the window open a little bit. "hey baby! baby, go home, man! it's 3 o'clock in the morning man, what the gently caress are you doing up?" the baby says, "i'm farming golems, nigga!"

if you're low elo you wont enjoy playing support because you're loving bad and will just die on damage supports and wont make the proper map moves on normal ones, but you're probably bad at everything so just find a thing you can enjoy

I've just checked Lolalytics. Shaco's first winrate-wise among all junglers with a pretty respectable play rate. So now I have a bit more free time than I thought I would have. gently caress playing this game until they knock him down a peg or two or twenty.

LeBlanc has a 50.1% win rate

Why do people waste a ban on a champ that most people can't even play well

that's a very high winrate for leblanc historically, she was closer to 45% last time she was drawing heavy bans

if you actually think you are better than the people in bronze just pick like pantheon support or something and dump on people.

who are you banning? the only non-jungle ban I usually even consider is yasuo and that's just to stop a teammate from picking him

I'd rather knock out vi/shaco/hec/lee (lee just because he's annoying to play against)

If I was better than my team mates I'd probably be out of bronze by now. Support is so thankless in B5, though. I spend too much time pissed off.
