Forgot to Farm

Sometimes I really suck at this game.  The picture below shows some evidence of that.  The mistake that I made was one that I’ve seen becoming more and more prevalent among Ezreal players; I thought that because I was Ezreal and had a couple kills in bottom lane that I was king.  It turns out that if you forget to farm your items you don’t do any damage.

I was down to 5 kills and 6 deaths, a negative record, but I was getting behind on farm, so I dropped the chasing, the team fighting, the scouting and went to work.  I shoved top until I had 5 people from the other team coming after me.  Then I ran bottom and did the same.  I took a tower, then continued to shove and the whole other team showed up to fight.  I would just kite and run.  I’m Ezreal, I have two blinks and Trinity Force.  If I can just get out of the Ashe permaslow I’ll be fine.

Once I had items the whole game changed.  I had enough lifesteal to fight the fed Riven from top lane.  Luckily, I also had enough mobility to keep her from getting away.  I fought my way back into this game and it felt great.  I can’t blame Forrest because he was rusty and Riven is a joke.  I’m just glad that we turned it around and won it.  The enemy team actually surrendered but not before my old lady-friend yelled “Legendary!”
