I'm not sure if the inability to play League is a blessing or a curse. I like it to some extent but the players are really starting to get to me. There's always 1 feeder, 1 map awareness lacker, or 1 support who insta-locks an 'acceptable' carry and proceeds to build complete carry regardless of how the game progresses. Losing games because people don't understand objectives or because your ADC has full AP runes (even if it was an accident) is stupid as heck. And then you have the any-rank mentality of bruiser's being complete carries because they get 10+ kills from free roaming thanks to your team practically suiciding, thus making the role of ADC seem so insignificant even though they can completely turn a game around with just one item.
... I need a team.

densuo Ehhhhh, there are better starts across the board. Ancient Coin provides enough sustain and you really need a gold item in general.

dotsdfeI am inclined to disagree. It only allows one ward. I need my vision.

With the +40 starting gold mastery, you can start Gold item + 2 wards + trinket, which is pretty decent vision to start.
I'm always kind of conflicted on which trinket to start with on supports, though. Sweeper is nice, but I also like the warding one for extra vision early then upgrade it to the pink ward one at 9 which provides pretty great vision when combined with a ruby SS.

Eh. I am usually up front for my scared to take point team. I have been seen to grab the Blue trinket if I am losing to avoid face checking.
I 1v1's Lee Sin with Nami. I am the best support

Welp, it's now way harder to actually see when a target has been Exhausted.

God I wish I could draw like that. Then I could make some really super awesome fight screen art.

I successfully won a game with 20CDR off the bat using Soraka. All I had to get was talisman of Ascension and that right there was 20CDR, Utility and sustain, leaving me free to gain power

I'm going to be so glad when the novelty of Twitch's VU wears off and he stops being FotM. I've always held that he's an insanely good ADC, and fighting him every few games is just blegh.
Getting him to 10 health when he hits invisibility and your skillshots are on cooldown or hearing I WAS HIDING before getting burst to death by a fed Twitch is pretty frustrating.

according to reddit.
"There was an OddOne stream where Regi called a meeting, but TOO forgot to mute his TS so the stream could hear it all. Regi called XPecial out for not playing enough league and playing too many other games. XPecial basically just said "I get tired of League, so I play other things" and Regi basically told him to man up cuz its his job."

I can see both sides of the argument there really. On one hand, it's always nice to have variety, but on the other, if you're getting paid obscene amounts of money for playing, you should be practicing.

Well. Just won my first Provisional.
I used Brand and was matched up against a Nidalee. because of this I decided against my Burst Runes and went with my MR blues. Mostly even but then I blew her up when she got stupid at level 6.
My team listened to me when I pointed out the enemy Lux support went Heal and Clarity and told them to focus her for that mistake. We also were able to make the ADC chill out despite the annie support building AP and stealing kills constantly.
I think I found my Offensive Mid Laner. Brand fucking HURTS
for those interested:
My Burst runes are
magic pen reds armor yellow (will be replacing with HP yellows) Scaling AP Blue AP quints
Combat Caster (AA Mid laners like Ori and Lux)
Hybrid Pen Reds Armor Yellow (will replace with HP Yellows) Scaling MR Blue AP Quints
21/9/0 masteries.

New free rotation is:
Cassiopeia, Cho'Gath, Jinx, Leona, Lulu, Malphite, Nautilus, Orianna, Sona and Trundle.
A bunch of fun champs that aren't viable, and viable champs that aren't fun.

Glad to hear it. I figured you'd like her as an ADC since you play a bit more passively.

Thoughts about Cassiopeia? I'm a Cass main, so I'm probably not the best source for this, but she is really fun. If you have a solid grasp of kiting and positioning, you'll dish out more damage than pretty much any other mid-laner with her E spam. That said, she does struggle against assassins, and a lot of players do seem to find her difficult to pick up. Just dragging people on kites with your Q and W is tons of fun, all the same. This isn't even a good clip, it's just a silly one.
