Sweet! I was selected to join the PBE to test the new Sion! Now, to wait for the client to update...

PBE?

Heh, I already got an account for PBE ages ago when it was easy to get on, but thanks for the tip on something new for me to see there.

Generalpie: PBE = Public Beta Environment

Oh, I think I got an invite to join the PBE a while ago... If I play LoL again, I'll be sure to dig up that email.

I need help guys! I wrote a guide for the new Sion:

If you have a Mobafire account, comment, rate my guide, and tell me what you think. Trying to grow the Sion fan base. I think no one knows how to play him well. Currently feels like I'm the only one building him that way with Magic Pen and playing him mid.

I started a League of Legends stream where I play Sion.

I play on those two accounts:

I wish, but then Agar.io happened.....

I recently went on a 20 game losing streak and went from gold 2 to gold 5. Needless to say I am not happy right now.

Try getting good.

That sucks. But it's also a sign that you overshot your skill ceiling.

It's actually really hard to carry games in gold, I was gold 4 last season and placed gold 2 this season. Came very close to getting demoted because, while I would wind up with a positive KDA, I was never impactful enough to get to my victory condition. Sometimes that's because of champ select, where our comp isn't good enough to beat theirs, and sometimes that's because of other individuals on the team that aren't playing as well as they could/should be. I'm well past the point that I get upset at the game though, so I just keep playing. I find it's easier to carry from mid on champs like Twisted Fate and LeBlanc than it is from my main role, which is jungle, since the shift in the meta.

This summs up what happened to me quite well. I wouldn't always do the greatest but a lot of the time it just came down to the team comp not working well together. I cant count how many games I had where we would be winning our games and as soon as temfights break out we get decimated because they wreck our carries/we can't reach theirs. There are also those games where we get 3 adc mains and then they have to adapt to a role they are mediocre at.

People not being able to play all roles of the game at an at least average skill level is really detrimental to the overall health of the game. I pine for diamond 2 and above where there are less trolls, but hey, what can you do?

Just do like me and play Sion only no matter where you're forced to go. I can feed 4 or even 5 kills in lane and I'll still end up winning the game. Currently Plat 2 with 65% win rate. My second highest account is plat 4 with 72% win rate.

I was just randomly browsing my match history and found this little gem that I hadn't mentioned here: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1792632011/31976753?tab=overview

AP Fiora (only AP ratio is Riposte - the single-hit damage reflect) in URF against a team that 4/5 rely on basic attacks or ones that count as such. They took massive damage if they attacked me, but had to attack me to fight back; it was hilarious (cooldown was low enough that I could at least reflect every other hit against high attack speed). For example, Jinx almost killed herself attacking me sometimes while I was fighting someone else and ignoring her.

Nashor's would have worked well with Gunblade/Lich Bane.

AP Sivir was actually pretty retarded in URF too, because of her Spellshield and her AP ratio on her Q.

The point of the build was for them to kill themselves attacking me (or run when they realize they will kill themselves if they try to fight), so other than gunblade for survival, I was trying to max out that Riposte burst damage. It only worked because of the team I was against; Eve was the only threat, but even then I ended up getting far enough ahead to duel her anyway (I think that's actually what the gunblade was for).

I just played a game with Redmercy: http://matchhistory.pbe.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/PBE1/53252375/2200137495?tab=overview

Apparently, being transformed by Lulu changes your champion name for anything that appears in chat during that time.
