Number of dragons aren't that important now. Particularly if they're of the cloud variety or ocean if you aren't playing with/against a poke comp. They did have to fight an elder, but that only lasts 2 minutes and I've played in a lot of mismanaged elder dragon games. Often people want to recall after taking elder and that's a good 20 seconds of effective elder dragon time.

Dragons have an important but often understated advantage - psychological warfare. I can't count the number of times we took two dragons, stole the third, then they just gave up or tilted and we cruised to victory.

I think this is a rare 100% wrong statement

I'm sorry but your aggressive mindgames aren't welcome.

Yas's only escape is his E which he needs to manage who it is on cooldown for. He really isn't as slippery if he isnt good

I wouldn't call a guy with a big refreshable shield, an sbility that is comparable to invincibility frames, and 1 second dash a squishy champion with trouble getting in and out. That's just me a guess

Going in is fine. Unless they have a stun in which case they use it on you and you die because they saw you coming from miles away and prepped it. Or even a lot of damage which they can throw at you. You have no escape unless someone behind you isn't on e cooldown. Even then it isn't a huge distance.
Not really seing as it has a very long cooldown. Massive window to abuse it. Or just walk through it. It really isn't that reliable and is on a 20+ sec cooldown.

He has CC once he gets in, and he gets out the same way he got in. dash dash. IDk man, I'm merely a mediocre player but I don't really see how much debate there is here.

its very reliable and its up for a long time. Good yasuo won't get stunned because he uses the windwall
i think panzer is right

A good yasuo know how far he can overextend with his dashes through minions.
Meanwhile, sup lulu/tahm is back boys

Well it blocks all ranged attacks, which is pretty much covers 80% of all mid Champs. Not to mention the shield he gets. Like I try and poke him but he wind walls and I hit him with a burst ability and he's like, nope lol fuck you.
Not unbeatable or broken, but it's still annoying as shit.

That's why you poke him to bait out the wind wall, then for the next 20 seconds he can miss cs or get bursted.

Final results of 7-3 placement, ended up in Bronze II! Can't complain about that at all!

Mostly because we got 5 on 4s without their Syndra present, and being heavy armor we were able to pull off some teamfight wins. Also somehow just Kog going bonkers in lategame because that's what Kog does.

Dude I feel boosted as hell, I went the same I placed Bronze I. Played with my friend, we lost, he got demoted, I didn't, despite being lower in our league. The ranked system loves me and I feel so dirty for it.

Probably means you were higher than me last season, I was only hovering around the Bronze II/III border last season, so you probably had a higher starting MMR.
