I didn't know that tahm kench was an evil river god in lore, I always thought he was a goofy cartoon like character(fat, swallows teammtes, spins around, comically long tongue)
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.

and also how somehow his winrate isnt good

same questions here.

Also why even bother playing ryze? You'll FINALLY get good at him then they'll change him again and you will no longer be good at ryze

All I know is how his shield works and that's because that didn't change. So i just try to stay out of his move and make him choose between hitting me and hitting the french foreign legion

His big move being invisible also doesn't help.

I try to treat morde as "that guy I will always choose to either kite or run away from unless he's CCed to hell."

I don't really understand your point, ank? A silver 1 playing with a few gold 2s/1s isn't that unusual, surely?

It was a Janna/Malphite duoq.

Generally when I see duo queues roughly that far apart, it's either close to the middle or leaning a bit towards the bottom end. I rarely ever see the ELOs of everyone else being this close to the higher rated person of the two.

EDIT: It's fair to say too that the Janna had a 47% winrate, so her MMR can't have been around high-gold.

It depends on what happens with the duo queue on the other side.

Vel'koz and Kha'zix were premade on the enemy team, and that premade is spread a little from the elo your sitting on for the game.

The idea is that he looks like that to lull people into a false sense of security before he eats them

Wards placed / wards killed. Critically important stats in support ranks.

I feel like it's already been said half a dozen times, but: K/D/A has a lot less to do with ranking than people think it does.

And/or as others have said: he should've stolen more kills. :P
Not something I'd factor in for Support but that does seem to matter.
