About me

 * I prefer to play normal games because ranked games feel like too much is riding on them and people take them too seriously. This inevitably leads to trash talking and a complete lack of actual communication, which lessens the fun factor for me.
 * I like to play all champions in practice games each time they are available during a new champion rotation. In this way I can better understand the abilities of other champions that may be my allies or my opponents, even if the champion isn't my particular playing style for normal games. The addition of Coop vs AI mode has been a great new game mode for that purpose.

Proving Grounds Post
I have a post one the official League of Legends forums in which I am advocating for the Proving Grounds tutorial map to be made available for players in custom games. The post can be found here: Proving Grounds Post. I know that other similar posts exist, but I believe that the one I have going is currently the most veiwed and upvoted. I am just trying to get enough views and upvotes that Riot finally takes notice and comments on the subject. As such, any upvotes or bumps to the post would be helpful.

Here is my reasoning for why the Proving Grounds should be added as a playable custom games map: Yes, I realize that Morello has expressed that adding the map could prove difficult, but since that time Riot has also stated that due to increased financial resources from supporting companies, they will have more staff and time to work on projects. I also find Morello's comments to be fairly ambiguous given that they are responses on a post about making All Random All Mid (ARAM) an official game mode, and not a post that is specifically about the Proving Grounds. As such, when he writes "Sadly, I found there is a big snag in this. I can't really reveal details on the reasoning, but I wouldn't expect this anytime soon - it's not going to happen." it is unclear if he is refering to ARAM or the Proving Grounds.
 * 1) The map already exists and only needs minor tweaks, like turrets and inhibitors.
 * 2) If Riot can produce three different Summoner's Rift "skins" in addition to the original, they can spend some time adding an existing map to custom games.
 * 3) There is a large community of players who enjoy "All Mid" type game modes, and the Proving Grounds is the perfect map for such styles of play.
 * 4) The Proving Grounds would be an incredible map for 1v1 and 2v2 custom games.
 * 5) The Proving Grounds has an awesome location (crumbling bridge over a bottomless pit) that shouldn't go to waste.
 * 6) BryonicHero has stated "We get more requests for maps than we do just about anything else in League of Legends" and this map is almost ready to play on.
 * 7) Adding the map to custom games is not impossible by any means and seems like a good use of Riot's time.

Favorite Champions
''My main champion is first, and foremost, Rammus. Galio is another personal favorite of mine although, as of patch V1.0.0.113, he is an underwhelming champion to play. The other two champions I play most are Dr. Mundo (mainly on Twisted Treeline) and Veigar (mainly in Summoner's Rift solo queue). I also enjoy playing Zilean on occasion. I also like Maokai but he is fairly underwhelming since his release.''

Favorite Skins
My favorite skins are Chrome, Freljord, and Molten Rammus, Toxic Dr. Mundo, Enchanted and Hextech Galio, Leprechaun Veigar, and Shurima Desert Zilean.
