Elo decays over time, is my understanding. So he can’t just wait it out.
Not over a 2 week period.

The improved UI is very slick. Much more streamlined without extraneous info… feels almost FPS-y.

Yeah, the new UI is much improved.
Except the forum posts say that you have two weeks until it decays. My last ranked game was over the weekend. So if I wait, it’s gone.
I’m not actually worried, but being dramatic is fun. I would like that Jarvan skin, granted.
In b4 you go on a horrendous losing streak and never get back to 1500.

Your words hurt me. Please stop hurting me :(
Patching and it’s damn slow, gah.
A real possibility when looking at his ranked games as he’s played a grand total of 18! How the hell do you get to gold with only 13 wins, that just doesn’t seem right.

Yeah. It took far longer to patch the game than it did to install it in the first place.

Um, by winning. Is this a trick question?
The rating just seems high for 13/5. I mean I just won a game and got 13 Elo…
You can see the new Dominions items in the store but they are X’d out.
I played a single match yesterday and it seemed like there were some glitches, but I did like the new UI. There is a retreat ping now (V, it makes a different sound).
Saw the new guy in my game. He wasn’t the biggest issue but he did give our two squishies fits (well, mostly just our Nidalee, whow wasn’t very good). The biggest issue was Skarner beating the ever loving shit out of Nidalee top. To the point where Nidalee just showed up bottom and said “go top irelia”. Nah, I’m not at all worried about going into a lane where my opponent has 3 levels on me and he killed you 4 times (I was 1/0/1 at the time).
I really wasn’t, though. We wound up winning the game but it took a long time. Nidalee insisted we go gank their blue at level 1, so our jungle Shen took taunt. We did get a kill (we missed a couple; Shen botched a taunt and that actually became a thing. . .) but it probably wasn’t worth it. Shen fell way behind and finished something like 1/14/17. And was not super useful. Skarner fell off in late game because he’s skarner (I didn’t look too closely at his build; he was hard to kill but not very scary).
you had irelia duo laning and post-nerf Nidalee by herself top?
I mean, I’m not good, so maybe I’m missing something but damn…
Your first few games are worth more then games after that point. To allow people who are genuinely good to get out of the shitty bracket rather quickly.
And your point is? Do you think I didn’t broach the subject? Should I have discovered where the Nidalee player lived, gone to his house, and had a face to face discussion about it? I can’t control pubbies, alas.
I rarely get to take Irelia solo top, strangely enough (as Jarvan, OTOH, people usually leave top to me).
You get like +50 elo per win when you start playing ranked, you also lose like -50 if you lose tho.

The ui looks nice but I have not idea what all the icons mean when you die/kill someone.
Played around a bit with the new guy, he’s pretty much exactly my style.
I think its…
Normal sword, killed by autoattack.
Moving Sword, killed by ability.
Sword stuck on ground, killed by ultimate.
don’t get me wrong, I know how pubbies go all too well. Wasn’t a knock on you, just a generic cringe
