    Build the on-use ghosts thingy item. Free ward, and quite effective + it has AP.

    Twin Shadows? Has MR, not Armor, and as soon as I burned my Q in team fights they focussed me just in case my Flash was down, so I needed the Armor.

    But if the entire enemy team is diving you (a support) and is that hellbent on killing you, what in the world is the rest of your team doing? Normally, if an entire enemy team were to try to zerg down a squishy in the backline, that gives your team the chance to wail on them because they're out of position.

    I don't ban him because he is strong. I ban him because people aren't smart enough to not pick an AD mid/top when they see a Malphite and even the dumbest team mates know what to do when Malphite ults. While it's good on your team, I don't want it on the other team. It's the same reason Amumu has gotten traction as an insta-ban.

    Yeah, this is pretty much the only reason I still ban him if the opposing banner doesn't ban these sort of champions.

    Not much of a choice, really.

    Then again, it was a bad game, hence why I mentioned it here, and in response to someone who complains about no-one ever picking Support.

    The team mates were clearly bad. That's exactly why you shouldn't have listened to them. Just stay back until your team initiated, and then land the ulti as good as possible.

    I'd've gone GA if they weren't harassing me about my AP. One of them thought I was building AD because I had my level 5 Q aura up and had 20 bonus AD.

    EDIT: Maybe Frozen Heart if I could remember if anyone else had taken it. I remember there being at least 3 Runic Bulwarks...

    Meh...every single advancement game to date...trolls and leavers....without fail. Every. Single. Fucking. One. No, 3 mid is not going to work. No, 3v5 is not winnable. There is such a thing as "Elo hell", in the fact that it only takes 1 person to completely fuck your last 7 games more or less. Just 1. And it happens every damn time without fail.

    I feel you, bro. With old system thing such as "elo hell" did not exist, but with how division advancement works? Fuck the world, it takes 2 Teemos and a Karma mid to erase the progress I made in last week. (I don't play a lot.)

    Build a chalice, then build it into Mikaels Crucible - decent on use, and an early chalice will enable you to spam your abilities and change auras on the fly with very little mana problems. I build at least a chalice most games fairly early.

    I feel like now it's a visible leaderboard, and divisions, the effect is that losses feel very punishing, as you can see yourself drop down the ladder, and possibly even out of a division.

    On the plus side, i feel I now have a tangible goal to work towards in manageable chunks.

    Gimme one of them. The one I got went 1/4 within 10 minutes, blamed the jungler and raged at everyone.

    But your job is to ult and then harass them and or die in the process, so your team can kill them all.

    Also i prefer AD Sona and building Zekes or Shurelia's

    IKR, flamed for no wards, flamed for buying wards slowing my build, flamed for taking Clarity on Sona, flamed for running out of mana, flamed for no AP items when I have Athene's, flamed for building AD whilst I only have my Q aura up...

    If it's the alternate universe where whatever I do in Normals is wrong, then yes, I live there.

    EDIT: Why do you think I stay in bot games... at least there I only get flamed by my team-mates for trying to jungle.

    You just gotta learn to ignore those people. If all they do is yell at you, press that Ignore-button, 'cause they're not gonna say anything of value anyway.

    What's the worst they can do after that?
