I'm level 14, and I own about a dozen now but the two I do best with are Sivir and Nassus.
Typically the game will end and I'll be something like 1/8/1 but with six towers killed and two or three inhibitors. And all the minions. We rarely lose a game now, although we're often way way behind on champion kills. But champion kills are not the winning condition for LoL.

Also i was curious as to what champs all of us own right now and what lane you feel most comfortable playing with them in. I think we should list who we have and maybe talk about what champs we could try and practice with.
I currently own the following champs and feel im best at the following lanes with them:
Ahri- Mid
Alistar- Jungle, or Support
Amumu- Jungle, or maybe Support (never tried it)
Brand- Mid
Garen- Top
Heimerdinger- Mid
Kog-maw- Bottom, can be played AP mid but ive never done it.
Leona- Support
Nautilus- Top, Support or Jungle
Olaf- Top
Shen- Top or Support
Shyvana- Top or Jungle
Skarner- Jungle
Soraka- Support
Taric- Support
Tristana- Bottom
Udyr- Jungle
Vayne- Bottom
Xerath- Mid
Ziggs- Mid
I've owned some of these champs for a while cause of some drunken IP or RP spending, and i obviously haven't played some of them at all other than in bot games. But i'm open to trying something new or purchasing a new champ that you guys might think i should try out.
So lets see what you guys got and discuss possible team comps that could work.

WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
Sometimes. But typically the idiots we play against just keep trying to gank champions and never push. No amount of feeding can overcome complete strategic ignorance.GORDON wrote:No, but feeding too much can absolutely cost you the game.

We should do a 5v5 game.

I think you should focus tanks and support. Doesn't matter if your tanks come out of the jungle or are in lane.
I own:
Alistar ?
Amumu
Annie ?
Ashe
Caitlyn
Cho'Gath
Dr. Mundo
Draven
Evelynn ?
Fiora
Gangplank
Heimdinger
Jax
Katarina
Kayle
Master Yi
Miss Fortune
Nasus
Nunu
Poppy
Ryze
Shaco
Singed
Sivir
Soraka
Teemo
Tristana
Tryndamere
Twisted Fate
Twitch
Varus
Warwick
Xin Zhao
I could run down what lane and all that, but honestly, just give me an AD carry and tell me where to go. If it's ranged, top and mid will be easier. If not, bot or jungle.
Oh, and I'm starting to think I want to roll Teemo out on SR a bit more.

Anyone still playing?
I used your vacation as an LoL vacation. Played other games, watched a few flicks, spent time with family, etc. I'm ready to return to LoL.
For what it's worth, I sucked and we lost.
So, same old, same old...

Not sure if I'll be on tonight.
But here's my run down of last night:
I watched Leisher, Stranger and Gordon play and they suuuuuucked. Not being in the game and just observing, you guys kept doing dumb stuff over and over and over. I couldn't believe how poorly you were playing and what bad decisions you were making. It was crazy. It wasn't just that I could see the gank waiting for you in the bushes, or that help was coming and you were screwed. It was the turret diving and the over extending and the chasing into an out numbered fight, etc. You guys wanted kills, no. matter. what. And it happened over and over again. One thing that shocked me was all the 1v1 fighting Leisher was doing KNOWING he had no chance to win. And it wasn't that you got caught and couldn't get away. You'd chase the person down with both of you at full health and they would then destroy you. That happened ALOT. Stranger's favorite move was the turret dive. And Gordon was the over extender. He'd run way out, into all three of them, then get stunned and bursted down, over and over. Being a silent observer REALLY put some things into perspective. It's one thing to watch two teams who know what they are doing play the game. It's something completely different watching us play against a good team.
Playing the 5v5 after that, I saw a lot of the same stuff happening. Although, Leisher 1v1's better with Fiora than he does MF. We as a team. .. poor decision after poor decision.
Both games, no wards. The enemy teams were highly mobile and wandering and ganking all over the place. Yet, we had so few wards on the board. In the 3v3, there were so many times a ward would have saved you, or gotten you a kill. The enemy had them scattered about, you guys had none. Our 5v5, I was buying wards 3 at a time trying to keep us safe from Talon. Yes, we ended up winning, but I almost wonder if it wasn't because the enemy was getting bored and started doing stupid stuff. Our late game abilities helped as well, obviously. But we didn't deserve to win that game. Not by a long shot.
Our team work suuuuuuuuuuuuucks and people need to start playing to NOT DIE again.

I was not in a good mood that first game. Just didn't care. Second game I cared and knew what Fiora could do. Avoided Talon as he was fed but hunted MF. Late game Fiora is a bitch. Kinda like Trynd but with less escapability.

First game was the first I had played in about 2 weeks. Rusty as hell.
Second game I was still a little rusty but I had the least deaths of everyone on both teams, except for one guy on their side. I disagree that my "overextending" problem is high on the list of things to fix when I get killed the fewest times of anyone else in the game.
