btw, I have under 100 wins and I'm in the top 1.5% of players by rating. Win count isn't a great predictor of performance in game.

and I found those in about 10 minutes of searching Zileas posts.
As for having a level 7 w/ 14 games, I think it has a slightly winning record (something like 8/6) with many of the wins getting FWotD bonus, which gives almost as much XP/IP as an additional win.
Finally, my gaming habits are not that of a hardcore gamer. If you consider a couple games a night a couple times during the week, with an afternoon on the weekends hardcore, then I guess i'll just have to disagree with you. Of course, since it doesn't support your position to admit that I am almost the definition of a casual gamer and was ab;e to unlock the game in short order, I don't expect you to agree with me.
Honestly, given your attitude, name, and general demeanor in your posts, i strongly suspect all I'm doing here is feeding the troll. Nothing I post will change your mind, you came in here with it made up and i suspect are only looking to either bash the game because you didn't faceroll in your first game like you expected or just looking to try to rile someone up and get a reaction. Hopefully someone else will get some use out of this conversation though. Regardless, i'm through. Best of luck to you ingame if you decide to stick around Lolyourangry.
