gollark: ```javascriptasync whateverParameters => { const summoner = await api.get('euw1', 'summoner.getBySummonerName', result) const data = await api.get('euw1', 'league.getLeagueEntriesForSummoner', 'MLR_5XD45pduq2iducsga00c4qi5sWqpaRkadd_E0fFhKXU') await msg.reply("Found league info for " + args[0] + "\nName:" + result + "\nRank:"+ data.tier + " " + data.rank)}```or something.
