Moon throws Cardinal, Chu, and JoshP in the Dumpster all in One Night

It’s 30 min long. bear with me.

LoL nerds reaching for the excuse book after Chu big bury

After this big bury, the fat sons are little piling over here by the thousands and crashing our crap web hosting.

Just look at some of these small son whimpers over at their forums:

“he was #1 for like 20 minites”

“Didnt Chu play when all of the top players were at dream hack……. If so i dont see much here to warrant any attention nor call him a good player.”

“no one cares about solo queue so he shouldn’t think he’s mastered the game”

Bro chu is insane at gaming.  Just accept it.  Only took till page 2 of the thread for one of their own to sort this one out.

Guys He topped the ladder with Maokai No one does that. No one tops the ladder with Maokai

There is merit to what he is saying. Him climbing the ladder in 1 month just proved his own point. Try climbing the Hawn ladder in a month, see how far you get.

The next 20 pages of the thread boiled down to kids admitting LoL has terrible gameplay because of the flash ability ruining everything and then calling DRD trash HoN fanboys.  Funny thing, you can’t even say HoN over there — it’s actually censored — so Lolnerds have to call us Hawners.

Kids lets set this one straight though, since we ain’t no S2 fanboys.  LoL is trash game supported by a solid company that takes care of their shit.  HoN is a solid game supported by a trash company that has no idea what’s going on.  So take your pick.

You’ll probably have more fun playing HoN, but at the same time you’ll get a headache from random server lag, games not recording, massive regular downtime due to DDOS attacks having their way with the servers, TMM games failing to load, Valkyrie model disappearing at random mid game, random flickers of hidden wards/heroes in fog you’re not supposed to see, bugs in new heroes that take weeks to fix, a buddy list that is full of blank names that it doesnt let you remove to add new friends since there’s now a cap, a vote kick system that doesn’t work since it requires the other team’s approval to get rid of a griefer on your own team, and countless other glaring mishaps that boggle the mind and frustrate the loyal player.  This type of shit wouldn’t last two seconds at Riot where each issue would be tossed in the dumpster one by one until people were getting a quality product again, even if it was a hopelessly boring quality product that feels like you’re playing Gunbound with 12 year olds.

Just this week S2 managed to break games from recording and couldn’t figure out how to fix it for 2 days.  When [S2]Idejder works on code he literally just slams his keyboard like the cookie monster until the problem fixes itself.  No wonder shit takes so long.  It’s a fucking disaster over there, people.

Recap and Highlights

Chu took an initial lead in creep score only to be harassed back by tabako early in the game. From this point, tabako took over the lead and steadily built a creep score advantage with an advanced stance in the lane. Both players battled for creeps and harassed but neither made any serious attempts on a hero kill until late in 15 minute match. At 14:30, chu took advantage of tabako’s advanced position on chu’s ramp and drove for a kill as tabako retreated. Tabako barely escaped chu’s barrage of attacks on his Voodoo Puppet to survive and win the match. The kill would have brought chu within 5 points of tabako’s match score (based on 1 point for each creep kill or deny, 15 points for a hero kill and 10 for a tower), and likely won him the match. In the end, tabako wins over chu by a combined creep score of 103-85.
Below: the final encounter between tabako (Blue) and chu (Pink) at 14:32.
