Riot beats MMOLife in League of Legends

The smoke has settled, my pride has regenerated, and it’s time to admit the results: Team Riot soundly beat Team MMO Life at our “League of Legends” PAX challenge.

It didn’t really come as a big surprise, considering the best player on the MMO Life staff (our Nunu rockin’, Zilean clockin’, Kyle Stallock) couldn’t attend PAX, and two of our five had a combined summoner level of 6. Then, when the remaining two had to leave PAX early and we had to find last-minute subs…

Oh well. We lost, and Riot’s Jeff and Marc will forever be able to rub it in. Just don’t expect me to stop trash talking, Jeff; I DID technically get half of our team’s very few kills, after all! And, being the only Teemo in the match, I’d like to think we at least won in Awesomeness, even if we completely lost in every statistical and mathematical category (other than most deaths, which we dominated like a Williams sister).

All joking aside, I would like to extend a big thanks to beta testers PIMP and urquan, who filled in at literally the last minute for the match. We were a ragtag team replete with newbies who had never even met before, but damn if we didn’t at least entertain the crowd with our glorious slaughter!

(PS – Jeff, expect to see my awesome drawing of Teemo fighting Amumu that I owe you from our bet sometime this week when PAX fever dies down. I can’t guarantee it will look even remotely like them, so I’ll go ahead and put a caption pointing out which is which.)
