first time breaking 1000 AP, and that was with only 12 stacks. had to sell my boots at the end though :p

and yea you can do ranked solo with a 2 man team but that's the max.

Feel free to add Nikuru Buckwheat to your list.  I pretty much just run Warwick right now.

i got drunk one night and wasted ten bucks on riot points and bought shen. he rules. i havent played him in ranked yet but im gonna try to (if he doesn't get banned). im hoping my they'll just ban heimer and xin and shaco like the always do and i can get my shen. i want to get good with soraka and then also buy taric. i feel like if i own and am good with those three champs i will just sky rocket in solo queue, since its unlikely that they will all three get banned everytime.

vlad is stupidly fun to play

agreed. also whats up with all the champions being free right now?

Servers are being wonky.  Trying my hand at playing Pantheon (bought him last night).  All of the low level games I got put into through solo queues are abysmal.  Nobody on the team communicated, I did all of the pinging, and this Tryndamere complained that we were terrible.  I'm way too used to playing L20+ games with people who know what they're doing, lol.

At least I got a decent number of kills on Panth.

The store is currently down for whatever reason, so they made all champions free until the issue is fixed.
