Current Rank: Silver V - 62 TP
OK, last time out I had 3 straight did-not-select-in-lobby that wasted 30 minutes of my precious time. Please god, let me just get into a game that actually happens. And I'm top pick. Sigh. Baron, Freya, Cherno, He Bo. I take Sylvanus first, the enemy takes Ao Kuang. I feel like I'm about to get stomped. I get Rama as my partner. We've got an Athena/Ullr pair playing into us. Let's do this.
I had a hard time starting out with this Rama. He doesn't press when I expect, and he wants to push when I want to retreat. Also, he's kind of toxic. Not radioactive, but not a healthy bit, either. I end up 0-5 and down a few levels. I get BM-ed. I BM back, but I don't press it. Luckily, it ends up being one of those one-time affairs. The Rama makes it clear he wants lane to himself, so I start rotating way earlier than I normally would.
This game is full of early-and-often rotations. I have to start farming jungle because I am waaaay behind. I build out CD Boots, Lotus crown, and Stone of Binding to start. I finish with Rod of Aescelpius, Pythag's Piece, and Heartward because Agni is bombing us all.
I actually learn a lot of things this game: how to ignore trash talk, how to focus and catch up, how to coordinate with a team showing different calls. I finish 0-6-14, just north of 0 KDA and feel good about getting a win for the Bronze Bastard.
