Merry Christmas everyone, Hope you all had a great holiday, PS this was one of my favorite videos to make in recent months, hoping it a good one to watch!
Was a pretty cool vid, looking forward to more! Also, I get the feeling that you're actually stuck in elo hell, not just unlucky games. I don't get even near to the amount of experiences you've shown in videos with unintelligent neutered snot slobbering idiots playing Among Us as Impostors to do their best to sabotage their team in my games, and when I do it's usually "soft inting" at most (I'm the same elo as you, just in EUW)
My friends and I did this once. It was so hilarious because we can see him in a warded bush typing everytime my friend would bring him closer to tilt while our Rengar one shot him
Yeah one of the techniques i used to get out of bronze and into gold as an adc was making sure when ever the enemy support stole one minion i would step back tell enemy adc his support sucks and just let them self destruct into an ff 15, also played every 200 year champ in top and mid because adc is cursed
At least the nunu is consistent. If he dances, hes going in, so you have 2 seconds to determine if you wanna try something, or watch him ride into the elo sunset.
I played a game yesterday in which my support AFK'd after our jungler flamed her (I even defended her because it was a dumb flame but she left anyway). We ended up winning because the enemy jg and top both AFK'd as well. A very cursed 3v4.
and it doesnt help that as soon as your mmr tanks you cant even learn from those losses anymore because youll almost always get 2 players giga inting. So youll be stuck in the same elo till next season because match making is completely balanced with no problems at all with people trying off meta wondering why its not working when then die while they almost have a jungler who seems to always know what they're doing. Like the adc cant even do what theyre supposed to do anymore because almost everything else is better as a carry then the attack damage carry.
@@voli293 this I got really bad luck on placements and got stuck in bronze….every game even if I carry we lose because the team is just soooo bad but the enemy seems to always have a brain

I love this silly style that embraces the depressing situation and turns it into comedy gold (something something sigma gigachad). Overall my favourite Rav video in recent memory

Rav, the beginning section encapsulates what I felt on ranked games since season 1. Every game started with that epic ranked song and players felt they were playing a life or death game.
Yeah I remember painstakingly levelling up to 30. Back then it was somewhat harder to meet idiots as the time before levelling to 30 meant: 1. accounts took way too much time to level so there was less trading 2. if you played until you got to 30 you should at least have a basic grasp of the game Now accounts go for the same price as a pair of used socks and the matchmaking has to account for the fact that I can play at least half decent which means I have to get a lobotomized gremlin on my team.
let's not forget the relatively new up and down matchmaking algorithm. Where you get a 5 game win streak where you didn't do anything but your team just outclasses so hard the game is unwinnable for the opponent, followed by 5 games where you get 4 lobotomized dipshits on your team with no path to victory. A system designed to get you riding a winners high follwed by an shot off pure liquid rage, both off wich will keep you playing more. Until you burn out and quit ofcourse.
@@mayastic9570 while gaing +12 - 18 as well. I stopped playing ranked completely after an unlucky 2 days brought my MMR down to a level where it's impossible to climb unless you have a 70% winrate at all times. What a dumpster fire of a system. The account already started bad in placements (which are a complete coinflip) and a few more unlucky games just tanks your MMR. Why even bother playing 100 games trying to fix it in some pisslow elo when I can just buy another account and try again. The worst part is this account is stuck in silver 1, which is a rank I achieved when I started playing the game in S9 and I was 100x times worse at the game and barely understood it. When you get an account like that it's doomed. I've climbed to high gold multiple times with no problem on some accounts and on others it felt fucking impossible. Haven't grinded ranked since shortly after S11 started so hard to say how high I could go if I did. I definitely feel like a much better player than just half a year ago. But soloqueue is about grinding hundreds of games unless you are 4 ranks above your competition.
@@TheSilvantor just play wahts super broken, i feel like season after season there is less reason to play the favs or of meta when shit like yone and lethal vayn are alllowed in game, iam sorry i need to try hard to get 10 win streak on shaco, but then i can turn of my brain lock in yone and go 33/2 in my first game of him. play braindead broken shit. but yeah rank is shit and if a account gets stuck its rip
The way the game pushing for performance is what makes it not fun. All the grind excluded, playing at a high level makes the game frustrating and monotonous since you should only do what is optimal. Additionally paying attention to micro and macro at all times is tiresome and not relaxing whatsoever. Same reason why I can't play shit like StarCraft on any competitive level. I might get high apm and other game experience but winning in multiplayer usually happens very quickly with some concise and mostly cheesy strategies. It takes the joy out of seeing 2 huge armies battling it out because it almost never happens. So, if you want to win without paying attention you're insentivised to play broken stuff instead of what makes you have fun. Playing like a monkey and winning is fun for you and frustrating for the other person. And it mostly happens when you play stupid stuff like the windshitters ...
@@JJ-vp5ic Yeah Yuumi players are typically air head no skill players or women, like i hate saying it but its so fucking true. The amount of yuumi players i have had add me who end up to be female are insane. But the ones who aren't are ULTRA toxic fuck wits who will troll the game if their precious champion is banned. Normally i dont get this nunu level troll i get the troll who steals my CS and doesn't actually poke the enemy. Then tries to convince the rest of the team i am the one playing bad because my low CS because they nuke the wave constantly. This is why i auto ban yuumi now, like every time i get in the game, even if i am mid lane. Ban and hope they have a troll on their team, or ban and see how they react then dodge if i can tell it really is their main.
@@Septemberl4d In one of my recent matches a yuumi support main got auto'd into mid and yuumi got banned anyway so they decided to bitch about it to us then pick ekko since they have never played him before. As soon as they died once it instantly went to shit and for the next half an hour they just went on to complain about the matchmaking, and how broken champs are then decided to feed the whole enemy team by roaming to other lanes saying that we lost anyway so they might aswell end it faster. They went 0/15/3 and safe to say they got x9. Gotta love ranked sometimes.
@@Rabid_Ferret I don't get it, there's so many players that will troll if their pick is banned so why even play rankeds? why not dodge and lose 3 lp instead?
sad that a lot of other yuumi players do this shit. i think im one of the very few genuine yuumi players who builds her as a support, knows how to play other champs decently, doesnt get mad when she's banned, doesnt go afk, none of that. i only play norms and only do it for fun so its sad to see that even there people are so traumatized they ban her as soon as they see my hover pick. cant really blame em tho to be honest
The holidays are slow, and meeting people from my home town makes me nostalgic. I'm considering downloading League for a quickie, just for the holidays, I'll delete it in january... Luckily I'm subscribed to Rav and he can demotivate me in less than 5 minutes. I won't play League. Another full year addiction free. Thanks Rav. Have a wonderful holiday season.
@Mafī Sadly it isn't that easy... I've played on and off since the end of Season One. The game was truly different then, it felt so innovative and unique to play back then! I have LONG quit ranked, you would have to pay me enough to retire just to play Summoners Rift... Now-a-days, due to playing for sooo many years league has become an "Itch that needs to be scratched" so when this erg to play pops up I log in and play ARAMS. Sadly this is slowly slipping down hill... The longer you do things, the more you see, discover, and master. After so long I've acknowledged a competitive side of ARAM that I never knew was there... Strats, tricks, ways to out play, and etc etc. Sometimes a feel that Riot captured lightning in a bottle with this game(hence why people can resonate SO WELL with it), they just couldn't keep the integrity in line as more and more zeros started to appear on the profits margins at the end of the year. Truly makes me wonder what will happen to the people like me when "All good things must come to an end"...
This is called "Disco Nunu Syndrome" If you see Nunu on other lane than JG, leave. It's a nunu, who's just running it down while spamming Alt+3. And picking cleanse + ghost In worst case, he'll go mid only and dance.
I got hard carried by a ghost cleanse nunu mid in ranked once.. Thought they were gonna troll since they said they'd swap me for supp since I was filled mid
We were once hard stomped by an OTP Mid Nunu. It was funny, I was on botlane and suddenly see the midlane just frantically pinging us fall back right at the start. I go away, not really knowing what they are on about when suddenly Nunu comes out of the river with a level 1 gank.
Noone seems to acknowledge just how much responsibility pro players and content creaters had in transforming League into what it is now. If League TH-cam hadn't fed for years on "fresh account to challenger" content I think we'd have way less "fresh account but skill-wise challenged" encounters. Being able to register multiple accounts with the same email adress doesn't help either.
A few days ago I had a similar game to this. I was playing Hecarim jg and my mid was Ahri vs Galio. Ahri kept dying to their Galio- and Shaco and spam pinged me every time she died. I kept cleaning up kills after her deaths + snowballing the other lanes. When she was 0/7 and wasn't worth gold anymore, she decided to try steal my camps. After failing 4 times in a row, she just ragequitted. At that time, I was hyper fed, we had 3 dragons and the other 3 monkeys on my team were ahead. I was convinced we were winning that, especially once we were 4v5. Then my bot lane decided to die 4 times in a row without using any summoner spells. So we lost Baron twice and 3 dragons off that. I started getting tilted, I was literally winning 1v3 in their backline with only gp ult as a "help", while my team died to Shaco because their summoner spells keys were celebrating a birthday party. Then Ahri came back. It was 35 minutes, and she decided to start giving more kills. She mistimed one death and we sneaked dragon off it. We now had soul. After that, I charged in the 4v5. I catch Shaco off guard, he blinks and tried to kill my adc. I ult him, he gets feared, and then my adc uses flash and my supp used exhaust, which they were saving since season 4. We kill him. I run in the other 4 members, gp ults behind them. I kill their supp and top while my team deals with Galio. We run mid and end the game. The enemy team congratulated us for winning with that 0/12 inting Ahri. Ahri was so upset in the post game lobby, flaming everyone, both allies and enemies. She didn't get lp because she got the afk penalty. We still won and she ended up with some ban (got the notification like 20 minutes after that game). It never felt so good to win a game
@@flyingcactus1953 nah its quite annoying as a jungler to get laners who dont understand what the enemy junglechamp does then constantly overextend and cry after
My first every ranked game was on Leblanc. I was vs Annie mid, and this was my first time learning about runes and runepages as I got summarily dunked on by somebody who had Full AP Full MR to my nothing. She was chunking me with every spell and I couldn't do any damage back when I tried to trade. Needless to say we got shit on.
I just wanna say shout out to one of my favorite content creators on this platform. This man may not edit crazy like a .ExE video, but sure as hell makes up for it with the most 200 years lines yo. And don't forget how he doesn't sit here and make us watch through 25min of farming minions and 4.24 min of fighting. 10/10 Creator.
First time I've heard the Space Groove Nunu theme. Will only associate good things with it from here on out, I'm sure. Merry christmas and a happy new year, Rav!
I started playing around 2014/2015 too, and the amount of changes that have happened to the game have never felt so drastic until recently. I guess it's cause new players have joined but WOW. On top of so much damage in the game, it seems like people are more determined now than ever to make the game infinitely harder for you. And it's so annoying when higher elo players are like "bUt yOu cAN cARRy" when they mean you can carry ONLY if you play perfectly or dang near it.
THIS is soo fucking true, i get in ranked and the people playing are like 5yrs olds after a lobotomy and its fucking insane the level of feeding going on
6:17 "he is indeed playing ranked league of legends... *on a track pad* the very defined pause there was actually the funniest shit i've heard all week. you can actually *feel* the disbelief in the tts lmaooo
Rav you're hitting the nail on the head! I've recently quit League of Legends because I realized that they do not care about players like us , they love the players like Nunu who have 5 accounts, and purchase skins on each account. I personally believe Riot is so out of touch with the game's community it's a loss cause continuing to play this game. I love the excitement that a game of League gives you, however it's not worth the toxicity and countless games where you get individuals like Nunu and Irelia. And God forbid you say anything to these people, because the wonderful report system will ban you for being mean, and typing things not "conducive to the game or strategy". The frustration is not worth it, and uninstalling the game has made me happier, while teaching me that no one really gives a shit about what rank you are, so why should I?
14:00 made me start shouting lmfao On a side note, as a long-time player I regret the "good old times" are gone, I feel like people were understanding the game better back in 2015-ish... Starting from the fact that it is a damn game. Toxicity was there, but right now we are at an all-time high.
I remember when i first played a rank match with my ex boyfriend. Our heimer killed himself all the time because he was agaist a Jax and our jungle was blind as a bat even being a Kayn and only ganked lv 7 or 8. We won the botlane only to see a feed Jax coming for our asses every time, and them there was our mid who was actually someone cool, even if is pick was a little off, he destroyed a Veigar using a Yorick, what i have to say, i dint know that it was possible util that momment. At the end we lose because Kayn never made any objective, if we go to the drag, he stop to do gromp, even if theres a teamfight over drag, he was there, making is jg, only to end up dead by the enemy Karthus jg.
I remember my first ranked game on season 4, I played kayle against zed. It was awesome. Nashor + Runaan melted their team. Now ranked is just suffering, the playerbase did their best at drinking chlorine instead of orange juice for breakfast and the result is what we can see on this nunu/irelia. Riots balance + these kind of players actually made the game awful. It's sad because there was a time where it was a great game.
I absolutely guarantee you that this Nunu thought he was being a complete chad lord that entire game. He watched some videos on TH-cam featuring talented streamers that warned players they were going to gank, then ganked and killed them, amazing everyone. Then he thought "that could be me, but I'll be dancing before I snowball in as a show of dominance". In his mind it was your fault for not comprehending the stupendous brilliance of his mind games or going all in with him and his clever psychological warfare is the only reason Irelia didn't 200 years your entire team 10 minutes into the game.
Reminds me of the time our twisted fate tried to build ADC and called it meta. Edit: I somehow managed to run into the same fella again, and he built noonquiver into tiamat into runann's, never upgraded tiamat or noonquiver.
@@hedge248 runann's and tiamat on tf's w and e... 2 effects that are single target and don't proc off of additional hits. Gee, i wonder where he went wrong. My condolences for dealing with that.
The intro with how ranked once felt hit hard. I remember the old champion select soundtrack, the drama when you was lastpick and had to fill... and ingame it was such a thrill. I went 0/10 in my very first placements as Leona otp and ended up starting my climb from bronze 5, true OG elo. I remember when hitting Silver felt like getting to heaven and that one dude in your group who was a Gold was treated like he was Faker
I agree that ranked has become some abomination of a game mode and I am in the process of breaking up with League after 10 years. It is one of the hardest decisions I made, because I really love the concept of the game, but the community went downhill fast since 3-4 years ago and there is not a single hint that things will improve. Thanks for the vids, Rav.
Problem is they have removed the tribunal. Where if you did good you were able to judge players who did crappy stuff. Right know it's just an automatic system helping paying customers, and not punishing but enouraging trolls.
Problem with the Tribunal was that people just kept hitting punish on everything no matter what, so every report that got in had huge punish ratios. At the start it was somewhat even, but as your vote counted for more if it aligned with the majority of votes on a report all of it just got 80%+ punish votes. Riot needs to actually dish out some punishment with the current report system because even if people are throwing around deathwishes left and right they still wont get banned unless you reach out to customer support directly
@@ragganmore6113 and that is something riot told us, but in reality the tribunal worked pretty nice. I mean I knew some feeders who got punished pretty bad, and has cases of being reported by premades and didn't got anything. The tribunal provided too little info on the game, but otherwise were still better than the current system. The system right know ranks your account based on how much you buy, and defend you multiple ways. You can this bullshit, but you know that is the truth, the tribunal had to go because they had to push inclusivity and defend paying customers. They don't care about game health, they care about money. The algorithm is working to push you down if you don't pay, and defends you if you do.
I was getting tilted just watching the nunu. I feel for the brand. "The cure for humanitarianism and philanthropy is to play ranked League of Legends" - Sun Tzu
Today I was like "let's try a new role for the new season! Adc sounds cool." And then the first game I'm playing mf vs Cait swain with a kayle support. Kayle is just sitting 2 screens away using w every 30 seconds while I'm getting solo killed by swain. After a while she starts flaming and stealing farm. And then stealing jungle camps as well. This is in plat.
as someone who played ranked seriously back in season 7-8, you wouldnt believe the frustration of havinga coinflip botlane feel like as a top laner. I'd win streak to plat 1 then lose streak back to plat 2 just because my teammates wouldn't or could play safe and feed the enemy 6 kills before i even got 2. Eventually I did get to diamond but it killed all of my motivation to play ranked games. Elo hell 100% exists and i believe it when someone says it's worse now because almost nobody wants to play high elo now. people target banning your champs and dodging games because they looked you up in OP.GG leading to queue times for 15-25 minutes so instead they just play low elo.
This right here. I remember getting platinum in my first ever ranked season playing jungle and top I think. Now I never gotten past silver/gold because I simply get loss streak teams or trolls. Some games are even decided in the lobby nowadays where people pick troll champs because they saw it in a youtube video somewhere. People look at meta sites and think they can just pick up the most op champs and get wins all day. I do not play ranked seriously anymore it is no use unless you are really good at the game and can carry 1v9 otherwise you are just stuck in silver/gold unless you no life and play ranked all day and hope you get lucky with promo's.
Dude that speech at the beggining brought up so many memories. I felt exactly the same way except i started playing 2013 then quit 2017 and for some unholy goddamn reason I started playing 2 months ago again and maaan,. have I not missed this hellhole of adolescent morons. Every game even a very closeone chat is full of "EZ" and I possibly cannot count how many times death was wished upon my mom,gradma and nonexistent GF (jk these virgins never think about girls in their life). Possibly most toxic experience I've seen in my life. I dont recall the game being this crazy back in 2013 to 2015,sure here and there was a moron who said that but not every damn game. I wish you all who read this long boomer comment to end happy holidays and luck in personal life and even this devils creation called League of Legends!
I don’t even like league and I don’t play it yet I just watched that whole video because i basically have the same experience on Smite. Fucking hilarious and relatable video. Nice job man
Yeah he wasn’t on a track pad he’s saying that to “avoid” being banned for inting, his elo terrorist comment at the beginning showed his true intentions but what is funny is that he’s so bad that his attempt to hide how bad he is by inting games is so bad that he can’t even lose games properly 😂
reminds me of the petty irelia i had when our mid laner took 1 top wave then started inting tf out of their 200yrs gween Edit: luckily we won thanks to our lethal tempo trundle
I tend to play a lot of Disco Nunu... I never thought it was possible or that I would ever see a "Freezing Temp IQ" version of Nunu... I don't think I can ever hear this song again without losing IQ points...
bloddy hell, I've never laughed so hard for the last 3 years than watching your video. Something about the robot voice and your jokes just tickles my funny bone

The way the game pushing for performance is what makes it not fun. All the grind excluded, playing at a high level makes the game frustrating and monotonous since you should only do what is optimal. Additionally paying attention to micro and macro at all times is tiresome and not relaxing whatsoever.
Same reason why I can't play shit like StarCraft on any competitive level. I might get high apm and other game experience but winning in multiplayer usually happens very quickly with some concise and mostly cheesy strategies. It takes the joy out of seeing 2 huge armies battling it out because it almost never happens.
So, if you want to win without paying attention you're insentivised to play broken stuff instead of what makes you have fun. Playing like a monkey and winning is fun for you and frustrating for the other person. And it mostly happens when you play stupid stuff like the windshitters ...
I just want you to narrate an actual esport match live doing this lol
without us knowing, only revealing it at the end too!
It would have to be a Vaevictis game, lol
I don't think he can do it live though.
He probably can't I mean it must take a LOT of time writing a script for these videos, but that's why this channel has the best commentary
@@adamion1993 just realised the OP said live lol. I just want to see that but not live, even a few months later so we don't suspect anything lol.
This might be your funniest video in a long while! Laughed my ass off whenever Nunu's theme song kicked in
This has to be one of your best videos. Holy dang, I'll be humming that Space Groove theme every time I see a Nunu turbo-inting like this one.
I agree, didn't laugh this much in a long time. A long time.

you better not have me in that game otherwise ill int your lane so hard youll cry yourself to sleep
This is 100% what yuumi mains do when their main is banned... at least this time their feeder outweighed yours.
@@JJ-vp5ic Yeah Yuumi players are typically air head no skill players or women, like i hate saying it but its so fucking true. The amount of yuumi players i have had add me who end up to be female are insane. But the ones who aren't are ULTRA toxic fuck wits who will troll the game if their precious champion is banned. Normally i dont get this nunu level troll i get the troll who steals my CS and doesn't actually poke the enemy. Then tries to convince the rest of the team i am the one playing bad because my low CS because they nuke the wave constantly.
This is why i auto ban yuumi now, like every time i get in the game, even if i am mid lane. Ban and hope they have a troll on their team, or ban and see how they react then dodge if i can tell it really is their main.
@@Septemberl4d In one of my recent matches a yuumi support main got auto'd into mid and yuumi got banned anyway so they decided to bitch about it to us then pick ekko since they have never played him before. As soon as they died once it instantly went to shit and for the next half an hour they just went on to complain about the matchmaking, and how broken champs are then decided to feed the whole enemy team by roaming to other lanes saying that we lost anyway so they might aswell end it faster. They went 0/15/3 and safe to say they got x9. Gotta love ranked sometimes.
@@Rabid_Ferret I don't get it, there's so many players that will troll if their pick is banned so why even play rankeds? why not dodge and lose 3 lp instead?
sad that a lot of other yuumi players do this shit. i think im one of the very few genuine yuumi players who builds her as a support, knows how to play other champs decently, doesnt get mad when she's banned, doesnt go afk, none of that. i only play norms and only do it for fun so its sad to see that even there people are so traumatized they ban her as soon as they see my hover pick. cant really blame em tho to be honest
I play only yummi as support if she gets banned i go ap lux
The CIA really should utilize ranked league of legends as a form of enhanced interrogation
The holidays are slow, and meeting people from my home town makes me nostalgic. I'm considering downloading League for a quickie, just for the holidays, I'll delete it in january...
Luckily I'm subscribed to Rav and he can demotivate me in less than 5 minutes. I won't play League. Another full year addiction free.
Thanks Rav. Have a wonderful holiday season.
Well done mate, it seems your life has become much better since you quit!
@Mafī league is fun, it’s also awful and toxic
@Mafī Sadly it isn't that easy... I've played on and off since the end of Season One. The game was truly different then, it felt so innovative and unique to play back then! I have LONG quit ranked, you would have to pay me enough to retire just to play Summoners Rift... Now-a-days, due to playing for sooo many years league has become an "Itch that needs to be scratched" so when this erg to play pops up I log in and play ARAMS. Sadly this is slowly slipping down hill... The longer you do things, the more you see, discover, and master. After so long I've acknowledged a competitive side of ARAM that I never knew was there... Strats, tricks, ways to out play, and etc etc. Sometimes a feel that Riot captured lightning in a bottle with this game(hence why people can resonate SO WELL with it), they just couldn't keep the integrity in line as more and more zeros started to appear on the profits margins at the end of the year. Truly makes me wonder what will happen to the people like me when "All good things must come to an end"...
@@underlvlmagikarp7247 competitive aram? That's just sad
Truly inspiring
This is called "Disco Nunu Syndrome"
If you see Nunu on other lane than JG, leave.
It's a nunu, who's just running it down while spamming Alt+3. And picking cleanse + ghost
In worst case, he'll go mid only and dance.
I got hard carried by a ghost cleanse nunu mid in ranked once.. Thought they were gonna troll since they said they'd swap me for supp since I was filled mid
@@breerae2226 You were lucky this time i guess o_O
We were once hard stomped by an OTP Mid Nunu.
It was funny, I was on botlane and suddenly see the midlane just frantically pinging us fall back right at the start.
I go away, not really knowing what they are on about when suddenly Nunu comes out of the river with a level 1 gank.
my most played champion on midlane is nunu and i have a 63% winrate diamond IV so I think I'm doing just fine :D
this better not be a thing are you deadass???? can riot remove the leave penalty timer? id rather 50 dodges than have to deal with that once
Noone seems to acknowledge just how much responsibility pro players and content creaters had in transforming League into what it is now. If League TH-cam hadn't fed for years on "fresh account to challenger" content I think we'd have way less "fresh account but skill-wise challenged" encounters. Being able to register multiple accounts with the same email adress doesn't help either.
the nunu int theme over the course of the video went from slight snickers and giggles to just breaking me by the end well done
Thank you for suffering for the rest of us that managed to leave this game behind them xD
Your videos keep inspiring me to never go back :)
I check in every so often to see how things are going. Every time I log in its worse than before.
A few days ago I had a similar game to this. I was playing Hecarim jg and my mid was Ahri vs Galio. Ahri kept dying to their Galio- and Shaco and spam pinged me every time she died. I kept cleaning up kills after her deaths + snowballing the other lanes. When she was 0/7 and wasn't worth gold anymore, she decided to try steal my camps. After failing 4 times in a row, she just ragequitted. At that time, I was hyper fed, we had 3 dragons and the other 3 monkeys on my team were ahead. I was convinced we were winning that, especially once we were 4v5. Then my bot lane decided to die 4 times in a row without using any summoner spells. So we lost Baron twice and 3 dragons off that. I started getting tilted, I was literally winning 1v3 in their backline with only gp ult as a "help", while my team died to Shaco because their summoner spells keys were celebrating a birthday party. Then Ahri came back. It was 35 minutes, and she decided to start giving more kills. She mistimed one death and we sneaked dragon off it. We now had soul. After that, I charged in the 4v5. I catch Shaco off guard, he blinks and tried to kill my adc. I ult him, he gets feared, and then my adc uses flash and my supp used exhaust, which they were saving since season 4. We kill him. I run in the other 4 members, gp ults behind them. I kill their supp and top while my team deals with Galio. We run mid and end the game. The enemy team congratulated us for winning with that 0/12 inting Ahri. Ahri was so upset in the post game lobby, flaming everyone, both allies and enemies. She didn't get lp because she got the afk penalty. We still won and she ended up with some ban (got the notification like 20 minutes after that game). It never felt so good to win a game
To be fair, it quite annoying to be camped and jungle doesn't come to help
@@flyingcactus1953 nah its quite annoying as a jungler to get laners who dont understand what the enemy junglechamp does then constantly overextend and cry after
@@N3207H05 a shaco and galio combo can quite easily dive turret and 100-0 a squishy.
@@flyingcactus1953 i always start the game with an invade. Puts all of us ahead.
Jesus that was one sad and cathartic story.
Just found this channel and I gotta say. Commentary - 11/10. Cried laughing almost the entire 14 minutes. Love this, definitely subbing. Thank you
My first every ranked game was on Leblanc. I was vs Annie mid, and this was my first time learning about runes and runepages as I got summarily dunked on by somebody who had Full AP Full MR to my nothing. She was chunking me with every spell and I couldn't do any damage back when I tried to trade. Needless to say we got shit on.
Well the old rune system was really shit indeed
I just wanna say shout out to one of my favorite content creators on this platform. This man may not edit crazy like a .ExE video, but sure as hell makes up for it with the most 200 years lines yo. And don't forget how he doesn't sit here and make us watch through 25min of farming minions and 4.24 min of fighting. 10/10 Creator.
He honestly made such a good point about ranked games, I feel like people actually used to care now every game you got kids screaming “ff go next”
"In the depths of Elo Hell nobody can hear you scream" - RossBoomsocks
First time I've heard the Space Groove Nunu theme. Will only associate good things with it from here on out, I'm sure. Merry christmas and a happy new year, Rav!
It's so good to see league content that shows the bullshit that is the league community. Instead of clickbait titles and normal high elo gameplay.
I started playing around 2014/2015 too, and the amount of changes that have happened to the game have never felt so drastic until recently. I guess it's cause new players have joined but WOW. On top of so much damage in the game, it seems like people are more determined now than ever to make the game infinitely harder for you. And it's so annoying when higher elo players are like "bUt yOu cAN cARRy" when they mean you can carry ONLY if you play perfectly or dang near it.
Bruhhhh the fact that rav was still able of pulling this game through without flamming is 10/10
Pd if I hear that song again I'll rip my ears off and eat them like lays
THIS is soo fucking true, i get in ranked and the people playing are like 5yrs olds after a lobotomy and its fucking insane the level of feeding going on
I really hope you make the occasional montage of stupidity that loops the nunu music 🤣 Thanks for the laughs!
*OH and NICE ults, Rav!
Wombo!
This is my favourite Rav video ever. 14 minutes of pure laughter. I'm glad I subbed. Keep up the good work.
ikr i aways come back to it
If I need to pick a Rav video to convince someone to watch his content I think I'm gonna pick this one. Really good stuff here man.
I like that you bring the toxicity to TH-cam where it is actually appreciated, instead of dropping it in chat.
holy crap this legit had me crying. This is my life in league.
I can't stop thinking of that Nunu charging with the epic music
This is by far the best video ever. Combined with the music and wambo😂😂😂 thanks for this masterpiece
6:17
"he is indeed playing ranked league of legends... *on a track pad*
the very defined pause there was actually the funniest shit i've heard all week. you can actually *feel* the disbelief in the tts lmaooo
And in typicall league fashion this Nunu will never get banned. Also this is a psa to not play ranked lol😂
This nunu was the most tilting and the funniest thing to watch at the same time . The music really is everything.
Rav you're hitting the nail on the head! I've recently quit League of Legends because I realized that they do not care about players like us , they love the players like Nunu who have 5 accounts, and purchase skins on each account. I personally believe Riot is so out of touch with the game's community it's a loss cause continuing to play this game. I love the excitement that a game of League gives you, however it's not worth the toxicity and countless games where you get individuals like Nunu and Irelia. And God forbid you say anything to these people, because the wonderful report system will ban you for being mean, and typing things not "conducive to the game or strategy". The frustration is not worth it, and uninstalling the game has made me happier, while teaching me that no one really gives a shit about what rank you are, so why should I?
Man, Rav, I love all your videos. They have just the perfect amount of snarky wit. However, that song has me absolutely ROLLING. Great stuff.
14:00 made me start shouting lmfao
On a side note, as a long-time player I regret the "good old times" are gone, I feel like people were understanding the game better back in 2015-ish... Starting from the fact that it is a damn game. Toxicity was there, but right now we are at an all-time high.
"He's donated his brain to science before he was done using it"😂😂😂
I remember when i first played a rank match with my ex boyfriend.
Our heimer killed himself all the time because he was agaist a Jax and our jungle was blind as a bat even being a Kayn and only ganked lv 7 or 8. We won the botlane only to see a feed Jax coming for our asses every time, and them there was our mid who was actually someone cool, even if is pick was a little off, he destroyed a Veigar using a Yorick, what i have to say, i dint know that it was possible util that momment.
At the end we lose because Kayn never made any objective, if we go to the drag, he stop to do gromp, even if theres a teamfight over drag, he was there, making is jg, only to end up dead by the enemy Karthus jg.
6:25 That whole segment is just comedy gold!
“Elo Hell”
As if LoL itself isn’t already hellish
"If I wanted to hear from an asshole, I'd fart." I'm SOOOOOOOOOOO stealing that XDDDDDDDDDD
Reminds me of a Quiyana main (with 1.5 kda) banning my Ezreal (declared) and taking Quiyana as support while stealing farm from me

I'm still cracking up at that 5 mins later.
I keep coming back to this video; it's hands down the best Rav video out there, ramming this Nunu. I audibly laugh every time. Excellent work sir 😂
I have a new new vid on nunu in the works
@@Ravlol my man. Can't wait to see it with the updated POV's. God damn disco bear.
Revisiting this a year later, and still smiling as big, potentially bigger. Love it. SPAAAACE GROOOOOOVE NUUUNUUUUUUUU ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is so hilariously accurate that I'm literally crying. Well done!
I remember my first ranked game on season 4, I played kayle against zed. It was awesome. Nashor + Runaan melted their team.
Now ranked is just suffering, the playerbase did their best at drinking chlorine instead of orange juice for breakfast and the result is what we can see on this nunu/irelia.
Riots balance + these kind of players actually made the game awful. It's sad because there was a time where it was a great game.
Bruh. The fucking music every time he went in had me sent to Heaven. This brand of commentary was very fun to watch.
Nunu's trackpad only tracked a train back to his base
13:54 had me in tears 😭
I absolutely guarantee you that this Nunu thought he was being a complete chad lord that entire game. He watched some videos on TH-cam featuring talented streamers that warned players they were going to gank, then ganked and killed them, amazing everyone.
Then he thought "that could be me, but I'll be dancing before I snowball in as a show of dominance".
In his mind it was your fault for not comprehending the stupendous brilliance of his mind games or going all in with him and his clever psychological warfare is the only reason Irelia didn't 200 years your entire team 10 minutes into the game.
2:30 in and i remember why i dont play ranked anymore
Reminds me of the time our twisted fate tried to build ADC and called it meta.
Edit: I somehow managed to run into the same fella again, and he built noonquiver into tiamat into runann's, never upgraded tiamat or noonquiver.
ad twisted fate is not that bad, its not the meta tho
@@koyomiararagi3893 it's pretty bad when he goes runann's into tiamat building 0 ap and feeding.
@@hedge248 ok thats a different case HAHAHAHAHAHAH
@@hedge248 runann's and tiamat on tf's w and e... 2 effects that are single target and don't proc off of additional hits. Gee, i wonder where he went wrong. My condolences for dealing with that.
The intro with how ranked once felt hit hard. I remember the old champion select soundtrack, the drama when you was lastpick and had to fill... and ingame it was such a thrill. I went 0/10 in my very first placements as Leona otp and ended up starting my climb from bronze 5, true OG elo. I remember when hitting Silver felt like getting to heaven and that one dude in your group who was a Gold was treated like he was Faker
I just want to know what did these players think in that moment. It must be, at least, fascinating.
Rav. You've done it.
Now I actually want this skin solely to play that Dance before every snowball on AP Nunu.
I know this is pre season but damn with competition like this I think I can reach plat
Not when you have them as teammates.
Hitting plat is mostly just a mental check. If you dont tilt and focus on your self its pretty easy imo
Plat is a dog shit elo. Especially mid plat.
Rav won't, he still hasn't.
Okay him acting like he's stunned after Brands Q was hilarious.
I agree that ranked has become some abomination of a game mode and I am in the process of breaking up with League after 10 years. It is one of the hardest decisions I made, because I really love the concept of the game, but the community went downhill fast since 3-4 years ago and there is not a single hint that things will improve. Thanks for the vids, Rav.
8 months later.
Nothing has improved
" you know what happens when he starts dancing"
lmao
Problem is they have removed the tribunal. Where if you did good you were able to judge players who did crappy stuff. Right know it's just an automatic system helping paying customers, and not punishing but enouraging trolls.
Problem with the Tribunal was that people just kept hitting punish on everything no matter what, so every report that got in had huge punish ratios. At the start it was somewhat even, but as your vote counted for more if it aligned with the majority of votes on a report all of it just got 80%+ punish votes.
Riot needs to actually dish out some punishment with the current report system because even if people are throwing around deathwishes left and right they still wont get banned unless you reach out to customer support directly
@@ragganmore6113 and that is something riot told us, but in reality the tribunal worked pretty nice. I mean I knew some feeders who got punished pretty bad, and has cases of being reported by premades and didn't got anything. The tribunal provided too little info on the game, but otherwise were still better than the current system. The system right know ranks your account based on how much you buy, and defend you multiple ways. You can this bullshit, but you know that is the truth, the tribunal had to go because they had to push inclusivity and defend paying customers. They don't care about game health, they care about money. The algorithm is working to push you down if you don't pay, and defends you if you do.
This is the best content on TH-cam I've seen in awhile. Damn, I was in tears.
The biggest cap of 2022. Well said Rav
Literally said to myself how the sound was gonna give me PTSD, when Rav finally admits that was his master plan all along
I'm guessing this Nunu got banned for at least 2 weeks, right? Right riot?
I was getting tilted just watching the nunu. I feel for the brand.
"The cure for humanitarianism and philanthropy is to play ranked League of Legends" - Sun Tzu

Today I was like "let's try a new role for the new season! Adc sounds cool."
And then the first game I'm playing mf vs Cait swain with a kayle support. Kayle is just sitting 2 screens away using w every 30 seconds while I'm getting solo killed by swain.
After a while she starts flaming and stealing farm. And then stealing jungle camps as well. This is in plat.
Moonstaff Ardent Kayle is pretty good.
omg I cant stop laughing at that Nunu. I would have been so mad in that game, but watching it is so funny.
Of course it was a yuumi main that was playing on trackpad. It makes too much sense
I appreciate the Articuno reference especially since that nunu song sounds like something straight out of Pokemon.
Had a friend that played on trackpad instead of mouse. He actually got to platinum at one point in season 6
"Our jungle is still in bumblefuck's kalamazoo" had me dying as someone who lived in kalamazoo lololol
If he's on trackpad and yuumi gets banned just pick lulu or a support more about healing instead of an aggressive support?? Literally braindead supp
"If I wanted to hear from an asshole - I'd fart" I love it
as someone who played ranked seriously back in season 7-8, you wouldnt believe the frustration of havinga coinflip botlane feel like as a top laner. I'd win streak to plat 1 then lose streak back to plat 2 just because my teammates wouldn't or could play safe and feed the enemy 6 kills before i even got 2. Eventually I did get to diamond but it killed all of my motivation to play ranked games. Elo hell 100% exists and i believe it when someone says it's worse now because almost nobody wants to play high elo now. people target banning your champs and dodging games because they looked you up in OP.GG leading to queue times for 15-25 minutes so instead they just play low elo.
This right here. I remember getting platinum in my first ever ranked season playing jungle and top I think. Now I never gotten past silver/gold because I simply get loss streak teams or trolls. Some games are even decided in the lobby nowadays where people pick troll champs because they saw it in a youtube video somewhere. People look at meta sites and think they can just pick up the most op champs and get wins all day. I do not play ranked seriously anymore it is no use unless you are really good at the game and can carry 1v9 otherwise you are just stuck in silver/gold unless you no life and play ranked all day and hope you get lucky with promo's.
“Is playing on an etchasketch” is genuinely the most hysterical joke about trackpad players.
Dude that speech at the beggining brought up so many memories. I felt exactly the same way except i started playing 2013 then quit 2017 and for some unholy goddamn reason I started playing 2 months ago again and maaan,. have I not missed this hellhole of adolescent morons. Every game even a very closeone chat is full of "EZ" and I possibly cannot count how many times death was wished upon my mom,gradma and nonexistent GF (jk these virgins never think about girls in their life). Possibly most toxic experience I've seen in my life. I dont recall the game being this crazy back in 2013 to 2015,sure here and there was a moron who said that but not every damn game. I wish you all who read this long boomer comment to end happy holidays and luck in personal life and even this devils creation called League of Legends!
I don’t even like league and I don’t play it yet I just watched that whole video because i basically have the same experience on Smite. Fucking hilarious and relatable video. Nice job man
Yeah he wasn’t on a track pad he’s saying that to “avoid” being banned for inting, his elo terrorist comment at the beginning showed his true intentions but what is funny is that he’s so bad that his attempt to hide how bad he is by inting games is so bad that he can’t even lose games properly 😂
The wana build a snow man coming in hotter then a spoon in a heroin attic house killed me lmao 😂😂😂
All really funny and that stuff, until we get an actual nunu like that, it might not be that good for us
All the jokes are funny, but I swear the basic line at the end cracked me up. Great videos
reminds me of the petty irelia i had when our mid laner took 1 top wave then started inting tf out of their 200yrs gween
Edit: luckily we won thanks to our lethal tempo trundle
Giga-chad Trundle for the win
I laughed so hard when nunu went back in the 3rd time during that gank lmaooooo
Yuumi main on an Etch a Sketch playing Nunu in support, it's obvious it was doomed as soon as the guy said "Trackpad".
"Nunu is doing another no-no" I exploded in silent laughter, my throat hurts.
I've heard of running it down but groovin' it down is a bit of a surprise.
Every time Nunu's song started I just couldn't stop laughing. Thank you, Rav. Hilarious vid :D
Ive just been going from your video to another one, finally subscribed, you gotta be the funniest league vid maker out there.
how you described ranked @ the beginning was so accurate
I tend to play a lot of Disco Nunu... I never thought it was possible or that I would ever see a "Freezing Temp IQ" version of Nunu... I don't think I can ever hear this song again without losing IQ points...
bloddy hell, I've never laughed so hard for the last 3 years than watching your video. Something about the robot voice and your jokes just tickles my funny bone
