As great as the idea sounds, it's a digital only contest.
But then again... I could draw something with the crayon tool and use the same explanation.
I'm finding out that I really hate the "stfu noob I'm level 30 with 2349874 wins so I can say and do whatever I want and don't you dare question me" teammates.
The Graves in my last Lux game, for instance, was faring somewhat poorly in bottom early on so I ended up switching with him after a fairly successful gank. Since the enemy Fizz that was at mid came bottom, it gave Graves a chance to farm up a bit and Nunu and I were able to deter bottom from making any particularly determined pushes in the meantime.
After the laning phase we see Graves pushing top...all alone...right next to their inner turret. Wasn't more than a few seconds between us pinging him to get out of there and him just disintegrating from the 4/5 person gank. When we pointed out that he probably shouldn't be overextending that much by himself he responded with "im pushing to win you guys don't push. and i know im level 30 with 500 wins." A reply of "Really? You don't play like it" received a long pause followed by "im just tierd." He then went on to insult Nunu because of his score of 1/6 (and 25 final assists...as the tank) and me for "having to take over my lane because Fizz was handing my booty to me." Graves' final score after our win: 11/12/6. Jayce and Jax both put up better kills with half the deaths.

This was a fun one. Our top was kinda derpy but their Taric had internet issues for a fair amount of the game. Vayne went beast mode and I got to see what a fully loaded Lux felt like. What the other team lacked in kills they made up for in pure offense so they really kept us on our toes. We had to chase them off the Nexus once. Also found out that Lux has a pretty crazy poke game keeping them out of the base while teammates handled creep waves. Didn't gain much if any kills during but it sure as hell made them think twice about pushing in.
Also: thoughts on keeping boots around after a game's gone on this long as opposed to picking up...I dunno, a GA or some additional AP stacking? Reasoning being that since Lux has no escape mechanism aside from Flash I figured I really needed the movement speed if I got chased.

If your an AD Carry and reach full build, sell boots and buy a phantom dancer.
Concerning boots: now that the boot enchantments are around, it really depends on how the game is going to decide whether or not to sell them, I think. For AD carries, Furor boots are really really nice for positioning in engagements, and Homeguard is crazy good for when you're pinned to the nexus. Plus, I think selling boots for PD only works well when you already have at least one or two other PDs or movement speed items.
Sort of relevant, I've found that I really need to work on my positioning as AD carry lately. It's hard to strike a balance between being too skittish and not doing any damage and being too ballsy and dying instantly.
Doesn't help when your team's Olaf is yelling at you to get in the fight as he runs into a 2v5....

depends what you're doing, if you're supporting,get rejuvination bead and wards. Top lane your enemy wil probably take advantage of the fact you have no sustain.
