End of Day 1


Well, I had a lot of fun playing Bard today. I tested a few builds and rune sets, and I think that I definitely prefer the Kleptomancy keystone, due to the sheer early game utility it gives you. I didn't get the opportunity to play in a role other than support though, so I think next time I will focus on solo mid/top Bard.

The last game that I played today I ended up getting an S+. I was playing with a premade 5 which made it a lot easier to maximize my effectiveness.

I only got to play a total of 4 games with Bard, but 3 of them were wins and 1 was a loss.


Game 1 - The Journey Begins

In all honesty, the first game was a bit overwhelming. I found it much more difficult than anticipated to hit his abilities. Also, I took the new keystone Kleptomancy and I found that having all the extra consumables, on top of gathering chimes, and laning turned out to be much more than I initially bargained on. 

Despite this, I had so much fun skating around (I got the Christmas skin in a chest) picking up chimes, ganking the other lanes, and leaving shrines for my team. I definitely feel like my vision score could have been better, since I have played support a lot before this, but that will come with time.

Overall, I had a very positive experience with my first game, despite my teammates being a little negative. It was a draft pick with all randoms, and I even got an S-.
