    My league doesn't make my points any more or less valid.

    An argument from a higher position of authority is not necessarily absolute, but they often carry more weight than an argument from a person without expertise. This applies in the case of league for example, because your league ranking directly relates to the legitimacy of your argument.

    I haven't played much in Season 3 so i can't formulate an opinion on the current state of the game. In both season 1 and 2, the game environment varies greatly from 1300s to 1500s to 1800s and then 2000+ elo. Everything from popular picks to ban list and item build changes greatly at each stage of elo. If you were making your argument at the perspective of someone at 1400s (or w/e silver is now) it wouldn't be true for someone at playing at 1700~.

    For reference: I was around 1600 in Season 1 and got close to 1800~ in Season 2 and now i'm like Silver or something.

    You're right, I should respect the validity of your position when you make it a point to mock my win/loss ratio :P

    Edit: Anyway, I'd have to say my current favorite champs at this point are Ezreal, Lulu, Thresh, and Blitz. I just wish I had more chances to play with Blitz, though. He's pretty much an auto-ban, and when he's not, he gets firstpicked by the enemy team, even though usually that person doesn't even know how to play him properly. When the latter happens, I just go Ezreal and violate him ruthlessly for his sins.

    You can always do some blind pick to play blitz. Once you rise in elo he stops being banned quite so much i think, in which league are you right now?
