[2019] I, a trash player, have finally achieved Gold IV with no solo queue partner.

Ive played League far longer than I care to admit but I didnt start going hard into ranked until this year. My friends were Gold/Plat and would steal my farm, kills and just treat me like an infection.

So I cast them aside, (actually no we all just got responsibilities) and threw myself into ranked.

In Bronze I learned your ADC is always trash so pick a Support Carry, like Karthus. If I felt lucky, Glacial Veigar.

In Silver I felt trapped, I would get the filth from bronze and the 500K mastery points players trapped in silver. They hated my offmeta despite winning. I climbed to Silver III and promptly stopped caring.

Then came these silly Arcade quests. ARAM too slow and Bot games too ick, I figured Id throw myself back into ranked. This time Jungle/Mid.

Ap Shaco did carry me from Silver IV to Silver III promos but I decided we needed some girth. I embraced an old friend, Mordekaiser. Now I know what you are thinking, Morde isnt a good jungler, hes low mobility.

Well, my less than imaginative friend have not learned the glory of ripping the back line rushers into the shadow realm and beating their ass like they were in catholic school

However Morde is often banned, and while Kayn/Yi/Udyr are all nice..we need GIRTH.

Enter Urgot. Urgot I dabbled with in the jungle before it became an actual thing. Same concept as Morde, low mobility but damn...he can slam dick. I load my ultimate kill steal gun and farm like my name is shyvana.

My mates didnt think I could get gold, and now Im on the horizon of being better than them. I have a lot to learn (trying to help teammates is a support main curse I need to shake off) but one day I'll become Hokage and save the world.

Thank you and have an excellent 4th my dudes.
