If you think the guides are bullshit you can always check out probuilds.net. It actually pulls their in game rune/mastery page they were using at the time as well as telling you what order they leveled their skills and built their items.
I love probuilds.net. It's like one of my favorite league sites to screw around on now. Although I am apparently in the minority of thinking Athene's is a terribly overrated item.

Magic Resist, CDR & Unlimited Mana? It's like the perfect mid lane item against other APs.

It's mainly best for the CDR. Either Grail, Morellos or DFG are the only good CDR items, and even DFG is kind of overpriced since you pay a ton for just the proc. I use to go tear > kages > morellos on most AP mids, but it's almost so much better just to go chalice into grail due to the early MR. That alone makes it almost impossible to die 1v1 in mid against another AP.

Should we try a few 5v5 matches to get some practice in? I know it is for fun, but if we work well as a team we could do pretty well. Worst comes to worst we lose our first match in the tourney or don't even get in and have a few practice matches we can apply to our soloq games.

If you can, practice. Team cohesion is a big deal and will win you matches against more solo queue oriented teams. My team in the AHGL learned that lesson the hard way early on.

Yes we should get in some practices but I was figuring we would wait to find out if we made it in first before planning anything since it's not easy to get everyone online at the same time. Also, we really only can do 5v5 Normals which probably won't test us much. Doing a 5v5 ranked team probably wouldn't work out since the roster isn't 100% certain.

If we make it in I will be hoping to schedule our match in the 2nd week sometime which would give us about ~10days to schedule a couple practices before we have to play the tourney game. Ideally we want to have practices as close to the scheduled Tourney match as possible so we go into it as fresh as possible without forgetting much.

Edit: Getting some Duo-Queues together would probably help too until we get some 5man practices. I would always be down to duo queue if anyone wants to help me finally get out of Silver tier... lol.

Fawe, my ign is Lythical. I am free after 6:30pm PST on most days. If I had to choose, I prefer to play top or mid (unless there's an Elise top).

Promotion series 3/5 games with 2 people leaving /never loading into game (always my team!). Best to realize its a marathon, not a race and just play it like unranked but sticking to my best heroes.

We'll see how long it takes for me to lose it again with ranked lol.

People say you shouldn't read a book to get to the ending, but to enjoy the whole book. That applies to playing ranked without losing your shit to the results - enjoy the higher level of competition and the challenges of being at the short end of the stick sometimes

There's limits though.

Like spending 3 hours of your night waiting for the 20 minute marker and not going afk before it so you don't get reported

ugh this game. Just played two matches in a row where a jungler died to red or blue. One of them died to red then died to blue back to back. Excuse? Lagggggggggg. Of course.
