Why would I willingly mix in with other internet swedes? Pretty sure ritual suicide would be less painful D:
Maybe I should just go to bed, or look to Dota 2, because LoL is dark and full of terrors.

In a nutshell: irl friend invited me to play LoL on EUNE, left for west at level 20. I then invited some of my other friends to come play here, and now I'd feel bad if I went to west now. And I realised it's not so bad here as long as you just play ranked. [Last time I heard Kurwa in ranked was back in Gold I lol].
Isn't that just as scary?
Yeah it sucks when you can't play with your friends.
It doesn't really matter for me either way because the person who left me for EUW has dropped on my friend ranking list (not that I have one), and the people I actually want to play with are on EUNE.
Only sad thing is that I won't be able to play with the people of MMO-C unless I smurf or something. And playing without runes is terrible...
On the upside, it does make your last hitting better when you then do play with Runes.
After about 1500 matches or so, i thought i have seen it all.
But no, i had the chance to meet up with an AP Irelia on my team.
Best part is, this AP Irelia gave up first blood, which i thought was deserving of a troll. No surprises there, but ends up with a very good score, even going legendary at one stage.
Whenever people talk about the meta, they usually refer about the current meta. Considering that I started somewhere during the middle of S2, I've never know something other than the current ADC/supp bot, AP mid, Bruiserish top, and then jungle (although, I do suppose that jungle was more supporty tanks in S2 and play more of a carry role now). That makes me wonder, what was/were the previous meta(s)? Tried to do a google search, but really just got a ton of random answers.
AD carry solo top/mid. Double bruiser bottom. Then you had roamers which were champions like Taric/Alistar/Pre-change Eve whose job was to just continually gank the enemy lanes (still had junglers) so you had 3 solo lanes.
P.s. Fuck you. Just opened the repressed memories of pre-change eve Roam. God the terror.
There was also a moment in s2 where double AP was considered pretty much the only way to go, buying two WotAs. Popular combos were something like Kennen/Vlad, Cassio/Vlad, etc.
Now, it's still used, but not considered as dominant as it used to.
It was highlighted as being strong by Fnatic at Dreamhack 2011. They'd run double AP with Alistar/Gragas middle. Wasn't really a change in the meta though, I'd argue it's still the same meta, as you still have the same components - 2 solo lanes with a jungler + ADC/Support, maybe a twist to the current standard. It's still played and gaining momentum, with Ryze emerging as a good top laner, as well as Kennen getting popular again

Ohh good Ol' pre-change eve.
I remember smurfs trolling newbies (me) who were just learning the game. 1x Boots of your choice + 5 Sunfires. Then you just stalked people in stealth slowly killing them. We didnt think of pinks/oracles so we had to either just put a tent under turrets and camp there or die Q_Q
I also remember taking people from 100% to 0% in a combo. Fuckin' owned any squishy
