I don't know that I'll be on Tuesday night. Only getting 3.5 hours of sleep tonight (thanks Leisher). If we don't have a full team on, I'm gonna take a night off.
Welcome to Thunderdome
RIP Gordon

i know it sounds kinda crazy, but what do you guys think of a Ashe support? She has lots of cc and vision, i would build her tanky with cooldown reduction to keep her ult up alot. Her ult is an awesome initiate, something that helps when you can get that out of a support. And it scales off of AP so i might even get some AP to do some extra damage.
It could be an agressive lane by having two ranged AD's on bot. Just a thought, and wanted to know what you guys think.

It's definitely an interesting concept. There's no doubt that she'd win the harass in lane.
Where you'd get into trouble is the multiple shot arrow, which would be a key harass tool. You'd need to make sure that you hit the enemy and as few minions as possible.
You'd also need to pull off enemies so your ADC can get that last hit.
Worth a try in normals.

plus with the way her passive works, the first auto attack would be a crit everytime. So hide in the bush, volly to slow, and first hit crit will do lots of damage to start a trade, AD should be able to handle the rest from there. and if it doesn't the perma slow Q or Ult assures they can't get away.

i tried the Ashe support in a solo q normal game last night. I wasn't totally impressed with it nor was i disappointed. Lane phase worked pretty good, it was me and Quinn vs. a Lucian and Soraka. The poke was good having two ranged AD's and the slows worked pretty well.
My problem was when it got to mid game. Maybe it was because the other team had two beefy tanks in Shen and Udyr that just couldn't be slowed down with my volly shots, but i figured the slows would be a little bit more effective. And building support items meant i was doing zero damage, like Shen just stood there and took down our tower while i put everything i had onto him and i swear his hp wasn't moving. I kinda expected this but it was pretty pitiful, Sona could do more damage easily at this point.
My idea with the build was to support tho, i built sightstone and philostone like any support should. I also built Black Cleaver so that when i volly shot i would armor shred enemies, and since i was at max cooldown of 40% i could spam that all day and put max stacks on them. So while i wasn't doing any damage our team could easily take down the Shen and Udyr without a problem when i got a couple of vollies on them.
I also built Zeke's Herald for the teamwide AD and lifesteal bonuses, this also had cooldown reduction on it. With these two items and the cooldown boots i was able to get the 40% cooldown cause i wanted the ult to be up as often as possible because this was the only ability that really felt effective as a support. Having my ult up every 40 seconds is pretty sweet and being able to initiate from the backline as a support is just plane awesome for teamfights.
The game lasted way too long, like 50 mins so i actually was able to build an IE towards the end and actually get to do some damage. If i was to do anything different i would prolly change my masteries, as the defence didn't seem to make a difference, if i got caught out i was dead, period. Not something that i will prolly bring to a ranked game yet, but with the proper team and some work it might be ok. Having an ult like that on support with such low cooldown is really good for team fights.

Stranger and I played an epic ARAM match last night. The match went on for 35 minutes, and by the end, both teams only had their nexus remaining. We ended up losing in the end, but it was the most fun I've had in a match in recent memory.
The game started with Stranger getting Ziggs, then trading me for Mundo. A random on our team wanted to trade me Pantheon for Ziggs, but I declined. We also had an Ahri and a Morganna. The enemy team was Fiora, Wukong, Darius, Janna, and Jayce. So we had the poke, in theory, but up close, they'd kick our ass.
Stranger did most of the ass kicking early on. He was carrying the team and ended at 18/17/39. Second most kills with Mundo!
Late game, I channeled my inner Platinum and honestly had one of the best games I've ever played. I finished at 31/13/26. I was frustrating the enemy team enough that Fiora had the primary goal of avoiding all my teammates and diving me every chance she got. I wish I had been recording it. As Rifle would say, "the plays".
Had our teammates been a touch better or had they been in voice so we could coordinate attacks, I think we would have won easily. As it was our Panth went 11/25/22, Ahri went 11/20/39, and our Morganna went 3/14/46.
I've really been digging ARAM lately. I just like playing with the different champs.
I've also been noticing that Fiora can probably be talked about as OP lately. She's a dominating force on TT and ARAM due to the small size of the maps, and the newer items like the Ravenous Hydra that makes her ult crazy good.
I should be on late tonight and later Sunday, but out for sure Saturday, and probably Monday.

Just dominated a solo queue ranked game as Singed. Their top Garen fed me 3-0 early, and an attempted gank up top got me a double kill. When the score was 6-0 I had 6 kills. 
Their Gallo was annoying, though. He was the best on their team.

My 2013 New Year resolution was to stop having sex for money... just like it is every year... so I don't even want in on this conversation.
