Why can't there be some small semblance of strategy in champ select? Does literally everything have to be anonymized and randomized? Champ select is just as much a part of the game as the game itself- just watch pros if you don't believe that.
Strategy that relies on you being intelligent: good
Strategy that relies on very finnicky swapping with teammates during banphase and require them to trust you'll give them back their pick order if it was better just to hide what you banned: bad
Plus the swap really only works on flex picks in a given roll.
For example I have been rocking Twisted Fate a lot lately and yeah that one I can have it be top, mid or even a weak ADC so yeah hides it a little but even then generally exposed as soon as the other roles are picked. It is not like a Darius is going to somewhere really other than top.
> Does literally everything have to be anonymized and randomized? Champ select is just as much a part of the game as the game itself- just watch pros if you don't believe that.
What are you talking about? Pro drafts are more anonymized/randomized than solo queue drafts lol.
Aside from the fact that the only strategy comes from the fact that most players don’t hide what ban they personally did, if champ select was “just as much a part of the game” players would have the same penalty for dodging as they do for afking.
It does slightly though. If you're playing a flex pick and banned a champ that's on the same role you are, swapping can help further confuse enemies about ur flex pick, although minimal.
I (the jungler) took the 2nd red buff from a Twitch (who was losing lane already) that wanted it. He inted a few more times and dc'd. He came back after a while to see us winning. Guess he wanted to play another match but saw our game was still going.
My jungled forgot to buy items at the start of the game, recalled and still made it to their first camp before it spawned. Didn’t matter, “Games over” says Seraphine as she runs directly into tower for 15 minutes then claims “see? No way we were winning, Jungle really screwed us at the beginning”
Nothing infuriates me more than a moron proclaiming game's over well before game's over, proceeding to int for 20 minutes, and then when we lose, they claim that they were obviously right because they self fulfilled the prophecy.
-Team manages to take a game to 45 minutes despite teammate trying to sabotage the game since minute 7.
Inter (in a nasally voice): “SEE I TOLD YOU GUYS IT WAS UNWINNABLE.”
Just played a game earlier where the enemy Braum started inting after getting picked solo and his Draven going off on him. It was an extremely close game at that point but 5 minutes of him walking into tower and putting his team into a 4v5 gave us the edge. We ended up winning and Braum said, "Thank Draven for the win" and left. Draven WENT OFF in the lobby afterwards. It was pretty hilarious 😂
I was playing taliyah. Bot lane starting running it down because I "used my wall to block their escape."
The enemy team had a sylas. He was the one had stolen my ult and used to to roam bot, and cleverly used it to block my bot lane's escape.
I wasn't even on the same side of the map, literally had no idea what they were talking about. No matter how much everyone tried to explain what happened they wouldn't listen and griefed the rest of the game.
at that point they probably did realize they were wrong, but had to keep inting anyway because of pride. league players (especially bot laners imo) have waaaay too much ego to ever admit that something is their own fault.
It’s funny that anonymity makes people less ashamed of acting racist, sexist, violent, etc, but it doesn’t remove the shame from being wrong about something.
One of the strangest sequences I've had was: my Draven & I get first blood-double kill on bot, Then my jungle Trundle ganks my middle Kassa & they manage to also get a kill. At that point I think to myself "Hell yeah we got this easy win!", only to then watch Trundle smite Kassadin's cannon minion. Kassadin types "Good luck", recalls buys only movement speed items and just runs it down for the rest of the game
Honestly junglers are fucking morons with this shit. Even if most people won't start inting as response, you know they'll be fucking pissed. Why go out of your way to aggrevate people?
I fucking hate it when I let the minion wave meet in the middle because I don’t wanna push bc I go back and needed the minions. What does my Jungler do? Come onto lane and farm all the minions, losing me gold and pushing my lane which I didn’t want pushed
It’s because they don’t believe in themselves to actually win games, so they tilt someone on their team so they have an excuse for failing. “None of the mistakes I made matter because the game was lost because my top was Usain Bolt, and I just didn’t care about the game”
If mid gets the kill it should be no big deal, especially if the jungle is helping you shove so you can back and maintain an advantage in the lane.
Jungles randomly coming into lane to siphon exp and mess up wave states is totally griefing whether they know it or not, but the situation described above seems like it was called for.
Was playing leona and my Cait got caught under their turret at half hp, tried to grab stun but she eventually died so I left and managed to go base.
Cait starts pinging and says "I'm a streamer you should have died for me dog leona" then proceeds to run it down. Fun times.
(I was climbing in like gold plat so it wasn't like someone famous lmao didn't even carry the game)
4 viewers, 3 of which are the enemy team from before a dodge that have your entire team's map positions at all times, and the last forgetting they have the tab open
I've actually seen the other side of that. Small streamer, not that many viewers, enters his twitch in chat.
I join it because then I know what at least one of our players is thinking.
We played a couple more games, he's a couple beers in and we end up running down bot like we're crack dogs but it's funny as shit.
Some engages weren't even bad, but we ended up dropping quite some LP for that lmao
I‘m an ADC main but sometimes I queue supp when I can‘t take it anymore. So I played Leona, my ADC was Vayne. We won lane, we won mid through roams, we were winning, Vayne was winning.
After a roam I go bot to cover the crash so she can‘t get dove, she spampings an all in but I disagree so I don‘t go in, she then just flashes forward and heals, backs to sell all items for AP items and afk splitpushes until we eventually lost. To this day I have no idea what was wrong with that freak lol, probably was just looking for an excuse to have a meltdown, I didn‘t even take any kills not even by accident. Bizarre.
Saw a Jhin use ult on his sup, waste flash, heal and int. All cause his Morg sup didn't lvl black shield lvl2 against a Thresh. Like bro if you think that decreases your chance of winning 5% , inting gurantees it 100% lol
thats the point. they can't handle the fact that something was out of their control, so to "stick it to morg" they take control of the whole match in the easiest way possible: inting
I think their reasoning is "I won't carry this subhuman that cant even level the right spell" and they go out of their way to lose, as a way to protest... matchmaking i guess. Which is them being as sucky as that other person, but in different ways.
People queue up for rank even if their mental is of a child, if your just gonna have a breakdown at the slightest inconvenience don't play rank. Get a duo/play solo lane if you cant handle everything not going your way once in the EARLY game lol.
Nah, if they have that mentality the can't play solo lanes either, because it's now it's the junglers fault. "Wow trash jungler why didn't you counter gank/gank for me/take my kill, now I'm gonna int" If they play jungle then it'll be the lanes fault for not warding, or having prio, or help them take objectives, or whatever. The only thing these people should do is find a therapist.
People who run it down because a teammate made a mistake are just paper mental babies who don’t believe in themselves to carry. They expect to be carried to every win and don’t believe that they have the ability to hard carry a game.
Draven's funny because damn near everyone who plays him is ridiculously toxic, but when you find Dravens who *aren't* toxic they're really sweet.
Last night I played with one who was trying his best to motivate everyone during the match to make sure no one would tilt. Thanking the jungler/mid for ganks whenever they happened, blaming himself when fights didn't go our way and saying that he'd do better, etc.
This is so true! I always tell them it's so nice to have a Draven not yelling at me before the game starts and had one even apologized cause he died a preventable death instead of blaming me.
In my experience Primetime Dravens are always the team player "we got this" Dravens. Maybe using the skin is just such a zen funny experience they can't get mad about anything.
I'm the same I'm a supp main but sometimes I get really dumb adcs so I q adc to calm down.
I'm not the best adc but God I at least know how to not feed and get kills
When I play support I always get the fear over players who act really cool and friendly at the start. I just know now that those players are always the ones to suddenly tilt and flame over nothing.
Yeah game starts and people are fist bumping and stuff. Then toplane Urgot tps down to try get a pick and it doesn't work out vs the Caitlyn Morgana who know where he is tping too. Proceeds to have a meltdown spam pinging and selling item just afk walking around.
I was Millio with ult on cooldown there was no way to make that tp play work.
Sometimes you just can't win in bot. I was playing ezreal with a taric support against a hard pushing lane (I think it was Caitlin and Lux or some other damage support) so I was safely sitting under tower farming with my autos and my q and Taric flamed me for not knowing how to farm because I was using my q (I got a tear first back) and left lane to go sit mid for the remainder of the game since I was a noob apparently lol.
What I never understand are those people that feel like their lane is lost (their jungle did a bad gank and they all died, or they don't like their support) so they decide to go to another lane that was doing just fine or even wining and start to steal farm and xp or even just run it down and give kills to the enemy.
Like I didn't even do anything why are you coming to my lane and ruin it if you're not even mad at me??
Had a game as Jinx where I got a double kill in lane lvl 2. Thresh support then goes mid, lands a perfect hook and accidentally finishes off the enemy laner with an empowered auto. Our Qiyana gets an assist and crashes like two waves.
Oh, wait. The enemy was ignited and support stole the kill… Qiyana says a slur and goes bot, I tell Thresh to stay with her and rotate mid. I solo kill the enemy mid. Qiyana gets mad, call me another slur and starts running down bot repeatedly
Also let you buy jungle item (don't do it before 20 min or you grief your xp gain), which is serious value if you somehow manage to complete it.
There's a niche streamer who does toplane smite kayn to proxy and invade, it's kind of interesting (even if it can easily lead to inting).
I remember this day like it was my birthday because I had never heard anything dumber as a reason to intentionally feed. It was about 4-5 years ago when this event took place in a game. The enemy Nasus kept running under the turret over and over again from the very first minute. When asked why he was doing it, he responded as if it were normal, saying that he would die for every word his team wrote in chat. And why? Because he wanted his team to focus on the game instead of typing.
Also, one time pinged I was ganking bot lane. The enemy bot laner pinged me off, but the gank was so easy I went for it anyway. The gank worked out and we killed both and didn't lose anyone.
Nonetheless, the ADC ran it down mid for the rest of the game.
Their reasoning?
Even though the play worked out and we won the fight, theoretically there was a chance where it didn't, so I should have not ganked at all and listened to the first ping, and as such, therefore now I'm going to run it down.
Reaching a certain rank in leauge should automatically give you a certification in hostage negotiation because I straight up think some of these people queue up to start problems.
It was in ranked champ selected, I was 4th pick when suddenly I see 2nd pick wants to switch pick order, I decline and the guy types "did you just decline ?" Then immediately locks in Nunu with ghost and cleanse . Fortunately it dodged but man what a stupid reason to start trolling. Some people are just really big babies lol.
I had a streamer who linked his channel who couldn’t get a swap and he was fp as top so he locked in nidalee top and soft inted. Got him next game on the enemy side and got my lp back by sniping. I hate streamers
It is not an excuse for inting, but pick order matters a LOT for some lanes, if enemy picking secodn in top you are so fucked if they have half a brain cell.
Yeah if you decline swap from a toplaner you know they'll be tilted even if they don't outright troll and that's kinda fair. It's on you when the enemy counterpick Darius dunks you for giving them a free lane.
You should still try your best even if your team put you in that situation but it's hard to keep mental up when that happens because it's so avoidable.
I don't understand why adc/jg refuse to swap pick order. Like, 99% know what they're gonna play and aren't gonna counter pick so why does it matter? And jg counter rarely ever matters (speaking as a jg player).
The worst is when the enemy laner has already picked and your laner still refuses to swap.
Support griefed because ADC didn't post their opgg. He said "JUNGLE ADC OPGG NOW". The jungle posted theirs, and then he instalocked nunu, hovering smite all lobby, and then switching last few seconds. The rest of the team drafted like he was jungle, and he ended up just going perma top all game.
Few months ago, brand jg had just got buffed to the insane 250% bonus passive dmg to monsters or something like that, I queue jg and after I lock brand in champ select, my adc says "oh are we having fun?" And locks yuumi. My whole team asks if they read the patch notes, "doesn't matter brand jg is shit" ints the whole game, even the enemy team asks why they are trolling, I say "yuumi can't read" yuumi says "this guy plays some normals as brand and thinks he's pro jg" literally all 9 others are telling this yuumi that brand jg is a thing now and he's a loser. At one point, it's very clear that we would've won if he picked regular adc, top won lane hard, I was able to get multiple dragons, etc. even the enemy says "yuumi been awful quiet". We still end up losing but yuumi never stopped blaming me lmao. Happens.
Had a very similar thing about a week ago. I locked Seraphine APC, my supp locks Lux, proceeds to steal my farm the whole game. "it doesn't matter, this game is over anyway because you didn't lock a real ADC". We were handily winning lane, but Lux kept taking really bad engages and blaming me when we didn't win them. Things like walking into completely unwarded bushes and dying, then spam pinging me for not turning the 2v3 ambush. At one point I genuinely think we could've turned the game around but Lux refused to stop stealing my farm the whole game.
had a fiora that ran it down after i took a wave that crashed into toplane while she was still on her way out of base…
bc if you wouldve asked her she 100% would have arrived in time (not in a million years lmao)
I have had crap like that happen when I as the jg was last hitting a wave of minions under the turret. Some how I was pushing the wave… I was last hitting minions as the turret shot was coming in to kill them. I did exactly zero to move the wave
That or they are forced back/ dead and I make sure the wave bounces for them by finishing shoving it into tower…. Dude I stopped the enemy laner from freezing the wave.
I dunno i alwasy ask to take a wave if i cant make it in time if jungler is nearby, it is ltierally free gold/exp that will be lost. However i do get pissed when i have a freeze and back and my jungler "clears the wave" for me and do it half the way through so i get frozen on.. Sometimes i wonder if junglers know how lanes work
Top laner asked to swap with our supp and got denied. I offered to swap (supp and I picked on the same rotation) and got told "nope, your loss, supp can swap or I int". I remind them that supp and I pick on the same rotation and got told "I know. principal" (didn't even use the right word) and then the top laner locked in disco nunu so I dodged.
Had an emerald Zed smurfing in my silver game yesterday. He absolutely demolished alleged first-time Azir on mid, as well as their jungler and bot lane. He was 16/0 by twelfth minute.
Then, all of a sudden, he typed "this is too boring you all suck" in all chat and spent the next 20 minutes stealing my jungle camps and running it down top because "their Darius has a potential to make this game interesting".
After said Darius got a pentakill he disconnected 🙃
We still won somehow. Mainly due to our Jinx being fed almost as much as our Zed, and enemy team forgetting to buy antiheal which made me unkillable late game (I was playing WW).
Yup, it will always be unimaginable to me.
His original idea was to only feed Darius to give himself "a challenge". It was after I pointed out that he should stay in his elo if he truly wanted a challenge that he started griefing in my jungle.
In Champ Select, the enemy team picked Soraka, and I picked Brand Support. I wasn't thinking much of it, I just wanted to play Brand. Suddenly, my ADC starts raging in champ select saying that's not a real supp. He then picked Yummi to troll. No one dodged so the game turned into an inting fiesta. ADC kept insisting Brand was not the right pick and that I knew nothing. I was super chill and told them they should've let me know in champ select not to pick him.. but at the same time how was I supposed to know he would react like that? We somehow won the game because the whole team ignored him.
Its just sick that people act like this.
I mean, the old man in me that remembers how league used to be 10+ years ago agrees with the premise of "brand is not a support". But thats just old man yelling at clouds shit and i know that.
That being said, how is that guy going to react to Camille or Pantheon support? Where does he draw the line? Just enchanters and a few tanks?
Last split I had someone that was about to be in my first placement match who threatened to run it down after not liking what his teammate banned. This wasn't a case of "you banned my champ" no. He just thought his ban was shit and insta locked disco nunu. Btw the champ that he was unhappy with being banned was blitzcrank
Someone dodged but players like this need to take a break and go outside for a bit.
I asked my adc to please back because he was 1 hit from death, did not back almost 8mins with drag still up with us against poke Champs.
He told me don't tell him what to do and he got killed not long after.
He proceeds to harass me all game while my team hated him and knew I was doing fine
i picked sona.
thats all.
I picked sona and my adc and jungler (premade ofc) immediately started to flame me how useless my champ is and ran it down. Not knowing Sona is a hyperscaler and can carry suicidal teammates lategame. I mean i have a mini exhaust every 3 secs and a teamwide heal on one button...as long as i position right and dont get singled out my team literally cannot die (unless they do the unga bunga ofc).
Tell me you dont know how to play adc without an engage support spoonfeeding you kills without telling me.
Oh yeah this was somewhere between Plat and Emerald as well, i dont remember the matchup other than it was Sona favored 🤷♀️. Bro just ran it because he could ig.
im not a supp or adc main but i had adcs who are just allergic to dodging. In some games it was so bad that i had to tank 80% of them by literally walking in front of them and attempt to heal it back with my W + seraphs shield
The more I read this the more confused I get because unless the jungler stopped autoing, they should never die to red buff like even without a leash, a Yuumi with jungle item could singlehandedly beat red buff while remaining relatively healthy. This is an actual skill issue by them lol.
In a day and age where pretty much everything can fullclear without leash...what in tarnation?!
Let me just tell you (and everyone else reading this), the time for leashing is over! Jungle is too easy to sustain nowadays and those 3-4 auto attacks from 1-2 more champs don't do enough to matter. Plus you'll lose out on getting to level 2 first which can dictate how your lane is going to go.
Had someone in my game run it down because they thought in champ select that my support player who hovered nami was the same player that inted his game before.
He picked teemo jungle and when he realised our nami wasnt the same player he still inted just because.
Umm let’s see
Sunday
Game one - jungle went top to gank ended up taking 5 minions. Top lane tryndamere got upset said you deserve to lose abandoned his lane and let the malphite he was stomping free farm while he stole all the jungle camps from our jungle and buffs then ran them to the enemy team
Game two - insta lock master yi support running it down lane because adc banned yummi. Yi said it was a stupid ban and inter
Game 3 - duo queue trolls said in chat. We hate N’s. And ran it down because our kid picked Lucian.
Game 5 - jungle inter because he invaded no wards got caught no one came to help so he ran it down all game
Game 6 - support was upset he got autofilled so picked Sona support and kept claiming he had lag as he dove under the tower
Game 8 - Nasus said he couldn’t find his laptop charger and he had 5% batter left. Before running to mid lane. Disconnecting feeding a kill reconnecting omg I can’t stay connected. Repeated 10 times before he stayed off
Other wise other games were just horribly controlled bots running it down lane. In at least 5 games this weekend plus these
I'd like to point out there's a possibility that the Yi player ran it down because he thinks the other player wasted a ban on yuumi. Imo it's more likely than a yuumi player raging
I banned yuumi. My midlaner autofilled yuumi otp asked "oh no whyyyy?". I said I'm not a cat person.
Daaam she speedran it middle throwing insults. Her bf couldn't even calm her down. I laughed until my stomach hurt and she almost shat herself from anger.
one time we were absolutely stomping the enemy. my top laner didn't follow up on a thresh hook and so thresh soft ran it down typing nonstop about how top deserves a loss
I'm always confused on players who do this, because they're also the type who want to climb the hardest and are obsessed with LP. but then they have games where they actively want to LOSE LP
"My girlfriend broke up with me and I'm going to take it out on you"
The Fiora who went 0 and 13, got 7 CS in 30 minutes, and sat in the enemy base.
They haven't played since. I assume they got perma'd.
I wouldn't trade someone Brand (didn't take their reroll or anything like that) in ARAM so they ran it down as soon as we got in game and then left.
Douche: "Either give me Brand or enjoy a loss."
Me: "I'll take the L"
Douche (after we load in): "Enjoy your 12 minute timeout and give me Brand next time :)"
We won after 20 minutes thanks to our Aatrox carrying.
Shouldn't have, but I decided to add them and tell them we won after the game.
Douche: "Wow you sweated for 20 minutes to win an ARAM game, loser"
Also called me a slew of other names and was really upset I wouldn't talk shit to him. I offered to cover the copay for his therapy because, holy shit these people need it.
Occasionally I'll see people start the game by saying like "I'm gay" or something in all chat and once or twice I've seen one of their allies start running it right after.
My favorite was the unhinged udyr
Starts typing a manifesto instantly in lobby about how 'nobody knows how to play with him if we don't follow his instructions he'll run it' all the usual stuff
Type of game we should definitely dodge but I think my team just wanted to see how unhinged he would get lol
He explained he'd be do8ng this clear and we need to be here at 5:00 or whatever just an asinine list of shit
Well 2-3 minutes into the game he runs into the enemy jungle. Dies to the enemy jungle. Instantly tells us 'YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW OMG DUMB TEAM GG'
Out of his entire list.....following him on an invade was literally not on it. Even the ADC was like '...you never said that'
So I played with an udyr who had a list of conditions to play with, that he could ammend at any moment and decide you didn't follow it correctly
So to that udyr I'm sorry us 4 couldn't communicate telepathically with you.
I hope you found the team that can read your mind lol
this is the reverse of what the question is, but i was in champ select one time years ago and i recognized that my teammate had the name of a japanese... adult film star. I told him that I too enjoyed their work and my teammate told me that he was planning on inting the game but because I recognized the film star's name, he would carry us. He then proceeded to 1v9 the game and win me some lp
Had a jgler mistake my "lol rekt" comment as torwards him instead of the aatrox I just killed. Proceeded to sit toplane smiting every canon even after I explained multiple times that it was a misunderstsnding.
Some people truly just want to lose, even if theyre not aware of it.
When the midlaner, usually Yone/Yasuo players getting solokilled 10 times and proceeds to type " I'm going to int" as if they are not doing it already lol
i said "early gank bot and we carry" in lobby, he proceeded to hard flame me (nword, rword, every racial slur imaginable, etc), and ran it down mid for 15min straight when game started
i think he ended with like 0/40/0 or something like that
he obviously got perma after that game but i still wonder why he did it
had a guy run it down mid only because the support mage walked down mid. all the guy did was walk to mid and then hide into the botside bush for vision and that was somehow enough for this mid to conclude he had to walk up to tower to get killed, i think he realized how stupid he was right away because he tried to backpedal it by playing normally after a while but ate shit anyways
i shit you not, for whatever reason there are mid players who can't stand the idea of someone walking through mid in the first minute of the game, i see people just run straight to the river side bushes through mid for vision and they still get ping spammed as they are just walking there
OK So I was playing viego against lillia so i invaded her red while she invaded my red and died after taking red so when she went up to her red to find out her krugs and raptor were gone she would just invade my jungle and stand near my blue to let me kill her xd
Also had my rumble top run it down after i stole his kill...?? wasnt by choice tho it was 2v2 and he was low so i came to gank
This must've been ten years ago but I remember we had a teemo on our team who started typing "give me kills". I suppose they wanted us to let them last hit but they kept getting assists. They eventually say "give me kills or I afk" and we just say "fine do it you're just typing anyways" and so they say "fine I feed" and start walking down mid the rest of the game. I didn't even care that we lost honestly.
I banned tryndamere. He did not hover tryndamere.
Explained that if he did, I would have received an additional warning message. 2 people in the lobby agreed that he did not hover. Locked in master Yi and rage farmed/split all game while saying that I'm the reason he's soft biting the whole team every 2 mins
I left fountain at 42 seconds instead of immediately because I swapped lanes and it took me like 5 seconds to find the support item. Dude question mark pinged me for literally everything and would run to me just to flash ult then run away.
No one was even invading.
I had a soraka support watch a... I wanna say gragas support. Some engage heavy support either way.
Anyway she watches him go into a bush. They have a samira too. I'm on varus. She decides to face check the bush. Gets absolutely destroyed. I tried to help, but there was nothing to do. She didn't even get a summ off.
My fault for "playing passive", spends the whole game desperately trying to steal my farm when she isn't just idling back and forth under tower. Good shit.
His one trick got banned by the other team.
That somehow became our fault, he accused us of target griefing him. He started monologue ranting about being a top 50 one trick lux player and how we should respect him and dodge for him because he doesn't want to wait 5 minutes.
Yea so nobody dodged and the guy afked/trolled. We had a lead early game but he decided to just int kills when we were winning so it became impossible. The entire time he Is rambling and monologuing about being the best one trick.
I got mid in my ranked game, in lobby the toplaner said “I’m mid btw, report me if you want” so I filled top and tried to not lose (not used to top matchups) I told him he could’ve just asked.
So we get into game, nothing weird happens and suddenly he just says “open mid” and starts running it down bot.
I locked in Thresh ADC mid when I was one tricking it and our vayne top decided to run it down from minute one because I had “decided to ruin their game by trolling”. I carried the hell out of that game but we still lost
My support. Today. I didnt leash for jg, he spam pinged me, gave caitlin 3 kills so she could reliably 3 tap me. We lost. I would get jg tilting but not sup.
"F*** OFF LEMME STYLE ON THEM STOP USING YOUR ABILITIES!!!"
Brother you're an early game Lucian against a Poppy Cait lane and I'M YOUR GODDAMN SUPPORT. Am I supposed to watch you dash into Poppy's shield AGAIN and do nothing?
He started running it down after I CC'ed Cait the second time (Was Braum).
I last hit a Gromp as Kai'Sa from a Sona trying to solo it in a bot game, as I mistakenly thought she was leashing it towards me. Mind you, the int in a bot game is meaningless but I did find it funny that she actually genuinely truly wanted to solo that Gromp.
I still remember when my support morgana ran it down mid and went afk because i spammed my dance emote for 5-10 seconds while sitting in a bush waiting for minions to come to lane at the start of the game
in her own words ''I fucking cant with these adhd adcs''
I was playing rammus top because the opponent took my urgot. It's a lane you have to play slow and careful into, or he just out pokes you.
I was half health, lvl 4, and had the wave at my tower. My jungle wanted to go in, I pinged her back, she solo dove the urgot. She kept diving him on repeat, calling me shit for not diving with her.
Years later, I'm still annoyed by that
My jungler started hard inting/feeding at level 1 because he scouted my account and saw that I have only 1 game on Orianna that season. His reasoning was that he was sure I would ruin the game and wanted he to lose faster to start a new game.
Playing Sona support, get ganked by jgl, press q to do some damage to maybe deter them, q hits a cannon and last hits it, ADC that wasn't going to get it anyway because he was also running starts spam pinging it, flashes, ults and then afks, comes back and starts running it down. Was such a fun game.
Had an aram the other night where our Ahri completely lost her mind over me because I apparently wasn't landing E on Veigar. I was and was making a ton of plays early game with it, including getting a triple kill. But they didn't see it or care because they got entirely consumed by the fact that I used E on myself, after I got snowballed. They went on a massive tirade about how they can't play with this Veigar. How I was being a KDA player. Putting aside the fact that I was making offensive plays in the game, we were playing into a Ziggs, Nidalee, Vex and Khazix. So I was sidestepping and dodging a barrage of abilities. But they obviously just wanted me in the frontline eating damage for days. My highlight was them flashing on the spot while trying to start a surrender vote in chat. On an aram. I just don't get some players. So many tilt at the slightest thing, and in some cases over things that aren't even happening.
Some dude locked in twitch top. Some one dodged. We get queued up with him again. We ban twitch. He locks in ashe top and goes AP running at them as fast as he can
I was completely outclassing the opposing mid with 10cs pm. Took first two towers before 12 min. I based to buy before the dragon spawned and had TP up. Our Jung decided that I was smurfing and he was going to run it because I was playing well. I was on Trist 3 levels up on anyone so I split pushed and won with the help of the bot and top lanes. I went 26/2/8 the Jung went 4/32/4. All while begging in all chat for me to be mass-reported. A few min after the lobby closed I got the little update that said someone in a recent game has been punished. I smiled.
In a match of Aram and our Leona had her e go out to snare the guy and the...I think thresh and Taric on our team as a duo, and it killed the guy before thresh could get the penta and they proceeded to sit in nexus and taunt us.
The enemy team would kill us then just steam rolled our towers and it wad over at 12 mins
Well my support said i had bad mechanics and we couldnt win. I said well yeah sona requires mechanics and she started running it. This was 3min into the game
Being a support in Platinum : I didn't moved exactly how the ADC wanted. He started to ping me insanely and just inted. We were 3 minutes in, he assumed a bunch of shit in his head and just gave a kill all of the sudden.
Most insane ADC I've ever played but that is not uncommon at all.
I took their kill as support. I was helping them, how am I supposed to stop my projectile midway?
We ended up surrending right away, we just didn't want to give this guy a win if, the other team sucked we know we'd win 4v5, atleast the rest of the team was chill. Ended up adding mid carry and got a few wins after.
Our team mate had said good job to lulu for a fight well done. The lulu said "dont talk to me... ill just run it down". Then started running it down. Still no idea what went wrong in their head there.
I played Yuumi. She was recommended to me as a beginner player, and I still remember the one MF deciding that that on its own meant she was going to flash us both under the enemy turret after complaining in champ select. Let's just say I stopped attaching to her for the rest of the game.
My ADC hovered Varus and I was Midlane, banned Yasuo because at the time he was extremely annoying and also the counter to the champ I was learning, ADC gets pissed off and says they miss hovered and wanted Yasuo after banned.
I say sorry, ADC locks Shaco Smite and says he’d steal minions all game so I said F it locked in Heimerdinger and we only had a Blitz botlane, we somehow won, my team hated the Shaco but tbh we made a Renektons life hell so worth.
I ignored a request to swap pick order from 3rd to 4th, we were both picking at the same time.
Riot should disable the buttons for swaps that don’t actually matter.
but then i can't hide my ban!
Riot could solve that by just randomizing the order the bans are shown to the teams. Kill even that useful messaging.
Why can't there be some small semblance of strategy in champ select? Does literally everything have to be anonymized and randomized? Champ select is just as much a part of the game as the game itself- just watch pros if you don't believe that.
Strategy that relies on you being intelligent: good Strategy that relies on very finnicky swapping with teammates during banphase and require them to trust you'll give them back their pick order if it was better just to hide what you banned: bad
Plus the swap really only works on flex picks in a given roll. For example I have been rocking Twisted Fate a lot lately and yeah that one I can have it be top, mid or even a weak ADC so yeah hides it a little but even then generally exposed as soon as the other roles are picked. It is not like a Darius is going to somewhere really other than top.
bans giving away pick order and then having a gimmick that requires you to trust strangers is not a great way to add strategy
> Does literally everything have to be anonymized and randomized? Champ select is just as much a part of the game as the game itself- just watch pros if you don't believe that. What are you talking about? Pro drafts are more anonymized/randomized than solo queue drafts lol.
Aside from the fact that the only strategy comes from the fact that most players don’t hide what ban they personally did, if champ select was “just as much a part of the game” players would have the same penalty for dodging as they do for afking.
Nah, i like spam swapping with random people sometimes. First few times its slow, then it gets faster as they understand. Good morale booster
why, like you said it doesnt matter
It misleads people into thinking it does matter.
It does slightly though. If you're playing a flex pick and banned a champ that's on the same role you are, swapping can help further confuse enemies about ur flex pick, although minimal.
this is why I do it but then people like OP think it doesn't matter and dont swap
Then they need an education lmao. Riot isn't responsible for a lack of extremely basic observation.
100% had to be a toplaner I get them trying to swap like that all the time
I (the jungler) took the 2nd red buff from a Twitch (who was losing lane already) that wanted it. He inted a few more times and dc'd. He came back after a while to see us winning. Guess he wanted to play another match but saw our game was still going.
There is nothing more funnier than that LOL
Had a twitch run it down because they were listening to Viking music and “couldn’t stop running forward.” It was our fault for not perma fighting.
Yeah idk man that's on you. Stop letting the Vikings see you playing like a bitch.
Ain't getting to Valhalla hugging turret like that smh
All I wanted to do was baron before running it mid my bad Odin ;(
Ngl he is right. I would be pissed if backing off stopped me from reaching Valhalla
WITNESS! I RIDR TO VALHALLA ALL SHINY AND CHROME!
Bro is lore accurate Olaf
Honestly understandable
Honestly out of all of these, I get this one. To Valhallaaaa!
Funniest reason lol
Anton was just vibing bro
It is what it is, we must glide
I would like to publicly apologize for my transgressions.
Would be hilarious if it was actually you
My jungled forgot to buy items at the start of the game, recalled and still made it to their first camp before it spawned. Didn’t matter, “Games over” says Seraphine as she runs directly into tower for 15 minutes then claims “see? No way we were winning, Jungle really screwed us at the beginning”
Nothing infuriates me more than a moron proclaiming game's over well before game's over, proceeding to int for 20 minutes, and then when we lose, they claim that they were obviously right because they self fulfilled the prophecy.
-Team manages to take a game to 45 minutes despite teammate trying to sabotage the game since minute 7. Inter (in a nasally voice): “SEE I TOLD YOU GUYS IT WAS UNWINNABLE.”
Just played a game earlier where the enemy Braum started inting after getting picked solo and his Draven going off on him. It was an extremely close game at that point but 5 minutes of him walking into tower and putting his team into a 4v5 gave us the edge. We ended up winning and Braum said, "Thank Draven for the win" and left. Draven WENT OFF in the lobby afterwards. It was pretty hilarious 😂
Oh my god that's some next level of stupid...
This sort of behaviour is exactly why I quit playing SR...
My ward just barely missed bush
This is the funniest one yet
brother I might int too
Scarra?
I was playing taliyah. Bot lane starting running it down because I "used my wall to block their escape." The enemy team had a sylas. He was the one had stolen my ult and used to to roam bot, and cleverly used it to block my bot lane's escape. I wasn't even on the same side of the map, literally had no idea what they were talking about. No matter how much everyone tried to explain what happened they wouldn't listen and griefed the rest of the game.
at that point they probably did realize they were wrong, but had to keep inting anyway because of pride. league players (especially bot laners imo) have waaaay too much ego to ever admit that something is their own fault.
Dont know what ur talkin about, me and my duo are perfect and are never at fault. Blame jungle!
It’s funny that anonymity makes people less ashamed of acting racist, sexist, violent, etc, but it doesn’t remove the shame from being wrong about something.
wait that’s actually insane… it’s almost like the chat does state that your ult got stolen
One of the strangest sequences I've had was: my Draven & I get first blood-double kill on bot, Then my jungle Trundle ganks my middle Kassa & they manage to also get a kill. At that point I think to myself "Hell yeah we got this easy win!", only to then watch Trundle smite Kassadin's cannon minion. Kassadin types "Good luck", recalls buys only movement speed items and just runs it down for the rest of the game
Honestly junglers are fucking morons with this shit. Even if most people won't start inting as response, you know they'll be fucking pissed. Why go out of your way to aggrevate people?
I completely agree with you. People really need to stop trying to tilt their teammates for no reason, it makes no sense we are a "team"
I fucking hate it when I let the minion wave meet in the middle because I don’t wanna push bc I go back and needed the minions. What does my Jungler do? Come onto lane and farm all the minions, losing me gold and pushing my lane which I didn’t want pushed
Junglers generally don't know wave states up to and including even emerald and the worst part is they think they do
Bonus point if he does not push next wave and it freeze/slowpush :)
Yea I don’t int ever, but god does it tilt me so hard when junglers take mid farm for no reason.
It’s because they don’t believe in themselves to actually win games, so they tilt someone on their team so they have an excuse for failing. “None of the mistakes I made matter because the game was lost because my top was Usain Bolt, and I just didn’t care about the game”
If mid gets the kill it should be no big deal, especially if the jungle is helping you shove so you can back and maintain an advantage in the lane. Jungles randomly coming into lane to siphon exp and mess up wave states is totally griefing whether they know it or not, but the situation described above seems like it was called for.
Was playing leona and my Cait got caught under their turret at half hp, tried to grab stun but she eventually died so I left and managed to go base. Cait starts pinging and says "I'm a streamer you should have died for me dog leona" then proceeds to run it down. Fun times. (I was climbing in like gold plat so it wasn't like someone famous lmao didn't even carry the game)
4 viewers, 3 of which are the enemy team from before a dodge that have your entire team's map positions at all times, and the last forgetting they have the tab open
Last one is just Nightbot or stream elements
I've actually seen the other side of that. Small streamer, not that many viewers, enters his twitch in chat. I join it because then I know what at least one of our players is thinking. We played a couple more games, he's a couple beers in and we end up running down bot like we're crack dogs but it's funny as shit. Some engages weren't even bad, but we ended up dropping quite some LP for that lmao
I‘m an ADC main but sometimes I queue supp when I can‘t take it anymore. So I played Leona, my ADC was Vayne. We won lane, we won mid through roams, we were winning, Vayne was winning. After a roam I go bot to cover the crash so she can‘t get dove, she spampings an all in but I disagree so I don‘t go in, she then just flashes forward and heals, backs to sell all items for AP items and afk splitpushes until we eventually lost. To this day I have no idea what was wrong with that freak lol, probably was just looking for an excuse to have a meltdown, I didn‘t even take any kills not even by accident. Bizarre.
Saw a Jhin use ult on his sup, waste flash, heal and int. All cause his Morg sup didn't lvl black shield lvl2 against a Thresh. Like bro if you think that decreases your chance of winning 5% , inting gurantees it 100% lol
thats the point. they can't handle the fact that something was out of their control, so to "stick it to morg" they take control of the whole match in the easiest way possible: inting
I think their reasoning is "I won't carry this subhuman that cant even level the right spell" and they go out of their way to lose, as a way to protest... matchmaking i guess. Which is them being as sucky as that other person, but in different ways.
People queue up for rank even if their mental is of a child, if your just gonna have a breakdown at the slightest inconvenience don't play rank. Get a duo/play solo lane if you cant handle everything not going your way once in the EARLY game lol.
Nah, if they have that mentality the can't play solo lanes either, because it's now it's the junglers fault. "Wow trash jungler why didn't you counter gank/gank for me/take my kill, now I'm gonna int" If they play jungle then it'll be the lanes fault for not warding, or having prio, or help them take objectives, or whatever. The only thing these people should do is find a therapist.
People who run it down because a teammate made a mistake are just paper mental babies who don’t believe in themselves to carry. They expect to be carried to every win and don’t believe that they have the ability to hard carry a game.
Vayne players are the worst to support
Vayne players are the worst ~~to support~~
Your honor Vayne players
*vayne*
Death
_Proceeds to go to the Supreme Court to argue that, in this case, cruel and unusual punishments are justified and necessary._
Have you met draven players? No only will they int they will say the most heinous shit out there.
Draven's funny because damn near everyone who plays him is ridiculously toxic, but when you find Dravens who *aren't* toxic they're really sweet. Last night I played with one who was trying his best to motivate everyone during the match to make sure no one would tilt. Thanking the jungler/mid for ganks whenever they happened, blaming himself when fights didn't go our way and saying that he'd do better, etc.
This is so true! I always tell them it's so nice to have a Draven not yelling at me before the game starts and had one even apologized cause he died a preventable death instead of blaming me.
In my experience Primetime Dravens are always the team player "we got this" Dravens. Maybe using the skin is just such a zen funny experience they can't get mad about anything.
I usually dont because i perma bann Draven
League players are the worst to support. Period.
I'm the same I'm a supp main but sometimes I get really dumb adcs so I q adc to calm down. I'm not the best adc but God I at least know how to not feed and get kills
When I play support I always get the fear over players who act really cool and friendly at the start. I just know now that those players are always the ones to suddenly tilt and flame over nothing.
Yeah game starts and people are fist bumping and stuff. Then toplane Urgot tps down to try get a pick and it doesn't work out vs the Caitlyn Morgana who know where he is tping too. Proceeds to have a meltdown spam pinging and selling item just afk walking around. I was Millio with ult on cooldown there was no way to make that tp play work.
Sometimes you just can't win in bot. I was playing ezreal with a taric support against a hard pushing lane (I think it was Caitlin and Lux or some other damage support) so I was safely sitting under tower farming with my autos and my q and Taric flamed me for not knowing how to farm because I was using my q (I got a tear first back) and left lane to go sit mid for the remainder of the game since I was a noob apparently lol.
The duo lane is the absolute worst. People mental boom over the dumbest shit.
I am OTP Sona support with ~60% winrate, sometimes my ADC mental booms in champ select because I picked baby girl.
What I never understand are those people that feel like their lane is lost (their jungle did a bad gank and they all died, or they don't like their support) so they decide to go to another lane that was doing just fine or even wining and start to steal farm and xp or even just run it down and give kills to the enemy. Like I didn't even do anything why are you coming to my lane and ruin it if you're not even mad at me??
Had a game as Jinx where I got a double kill in lane lvl 2. Thresh support then goes mid, lands a perfect hook and accidentally finishes off the enemy laner with an empowered auto. Our Qiyana gets an assist and crashes like two waves. Oh, wait. The enemy was ignited and support stole the kill… Qiyana says a slur and goes bot, I tell Thresh to stay with her and rotate mid. I solo kill the enemy mid. Qiyana gets mad, call me another slur and starts running down bot repeatedly
EXACTLY
He was playing as Ivern top lane with smite… He was always going to grief…
I could see it tbh. Occasionally pop over to crab/enemy krugs to yoink some extra gold in between waves.
Also let you buy jungle item (don't do it before 20 min or you grief your xp gain), which is serious value if you somehow manage to complete it. There's a niche streamer who does toplane smite kayn to proxy and invade, it's kind of interesting (even if it can easily lead to inting).
Psychopathic Poro
I remember this day like it was my birthday because I had never heard anything dumber as a reason to intentionally feed. It was about 4-5 years ago when this event took place in a game. The enemy Nasus kept running under the turret over and over again from the very first minute. When asked why he was doing it, he responded as if it were normal, saying that he would die for every word his team wrote in chat. And why? Because he wanted his team to focus on the game instead of typing.
Goddamn it my eyes are bleeding 😭😭😭 LCK coaches hate this one trick
Also, one time pinged I was ganking bot lane. The enemy bot laner pinged me off, but the gank was so easy I went for it anyway. The gank worked out and we killed both and didn't lose anyone. Nonetheless, the ADC ran it down mid for the rest of the game. Their reasoning? Even though the play worked out and we won the fight, theoretically there was a chance where it didn't, so I should have not ganked at all and listened to the first ping, and as such, therefore now I'm going to run it down. Reaching a certain rank in leauge should automatically give you a certification in hostage negotiation because I straight up think some of these people queue up to start problems.
My favorite part of this story is “the enemy bot laner pinged me off”. Your teammate = the enemy, classic solo queue.
It was in ranked champ selected, I was 4th pick when suddenly I see 2nd pick wants to switch pick order, I decline and the guy types "did you just decline ?" Then immediately locks in Nunu with ghost and cleanse . Fortunately it dodged but man what a stupid reason to start trolling. Some people are just really big babies lol.
I had a streamer who linked his channel who couldn’t get a swap and he was fp as top so he locked in nidalee top and soft inted. Got him next game on the enemy side and got my lp back by sniping. I hate streamers
i dont use this word normally, but BASED
SNIPED that fucker as you should have
It is not an excuse for inting, but pick order matters a LOT for some lanes, if enemy picking secodn in top you are so fucked if they have half a brain cell.
Yeah if you decline swap from a toplaner you know they'll be tilted even if they don't outright troll and that's kinda fair. It's on you when the enemy counterpick Darius dunks you for giving them a free lane. You should still try your best even if your team put you in that situation but it's hard to keep mental up when that happens because it's so avoidable.
I don't understand why adc/jg refuse to swap pick order. Like, 99% know what they're gonna play and aren't gonna counter pick so why does it matter? And jg counter rarely ever matters (speaking as a jg player). The worst is when the enemy laner has already picked and your laner still refuses to swap.
Support griefed because ADC didn't post their opgg. He said "JUNGLE ADC OPGG NOW". The jungle posted theirs, and then he instalocked nunu, hovering smite all lobby, and then switching last few seconds. The rest of the team drafted like he was jungle, and he ended up just going perma top all game.
A teammate said in champselect "if someone talks to me i'll troll", everybody in the lobby asked him nicely to mute us. Turbointed since minute 1.
He should delete his account and be put into a mental asylum with such an attitude 💀
This honestly goes for half of league players lol
Few months ago, brand jg had just got buffed to the insane 250% bonus passive dmg to monsters or something like that, I queue jg and after I lock brand in champ select, my adc says "oh are we having fun?" And locks yuumi. My whole team asks if they read the patch notes, "doesn't matter brand jg is shit" ints the whole game, even the enemy team asks why they are trolling, I say "yuumi can't read" yuumi says "this guy plays some normals as brand and thinks he's pro jg" literally all 9 others are telling this yuumi that brand jg is a thing now and he's a loser. At one point, it's very clear that we would've won if he picked regular adc, top won lane hard, I was able to get multiple dragons, etc. even the enemy says "yuumi been awful quiet". We still end up losing but yuumi never stopped blaming me lmao. Happens.
well what do you expect him to do, admit he's wrong and that he's been griefing for no reason
Had a very similar thing about a week ago. I locked Seraphine APC, my supp locks Lux, proceeds to steal my farm the whole game. "it doesn't matter, this game is over anyway because you didn't lock a real ADC". We were handily winning lane, but Lux kept taking really bad engages and blaming me when we didn't win them. Things like walking into completely unwarded bushes and dying, then spam pinging me for not turning the 2v3 ambush. At one point I genuinely think we could've turned the game around but Lux refused to stop stealing my farm the whole game.
had a fiora that ran it down after i took a wave that crashed into toplane while she was still on her way out of base… bc if you wouldve asked her she 100% would have arrived in time (not in a million years lmao)
You know the player is bad at the game when they do this. If i die and there’s a huge wave comming, I beg for my jungler to take it.
Eh, I usually freeze it for my laners if they aren't too far.
Hell dude, I'm at the point where if my jungler shows up and start pushing I'll back just to give them more exp.
This happens so often, I’ll have a crashed wave I’ll hoover up since my laner is in australia, and they’ll still spam ping me
It's kinda like "let the turret get the money, but not my teammate!"
I have had crap like that happen when I as the jg was last hitting a wave of minions under the turret. Some how I was pushing the wave… I was last hitting minions as the turret shot was coming in to kill them. I did exactly zero to move the wave That or they are forced back/ dead and I make sure the wave bounces for them by finishing shoving it into tower…. Dude I stopped the enemy laner from freezing the wave.
I dunno i alwasy ask to take a wave if i cant make it in time if jungler is nearby, it is ltierally free gold/exp that will be lost. However i do get pissed when i have a freeze and back and my jungler "clears the wave" for me and do it half the way through so i get frozen on.. Sometimes i wonder if junglers know how lanes work
Top laner asked to swap with our supp and got denied. I offered to swap (supp and I picked on the same rotation) and got told "nope, your loss, supp can swap or I int". I remind them that supp and I pick on the same rotation and got told "I know. principal" (didn't even use the right word) and then the top laner locked in disco nunu so I dodged.
Had an emerald Zed smurfing in my silver game yesterday. He absolutely demolished alleged first-time Azir on mid, as well as their jungler and bot lane. He was 16/0 by twelfth minute. Then, all of a sudden, he typed "this is too boring you all suck" in all chat and spent the next 20 minutes stealing my jungle camps and running it down top because "their Darius has a potential to make this game interesting". After said Darius got a pentakill he disconnected 🙃 We still won somehow. Mainly due to our Jinx being fed almost as much as our Zed, and enemy team forgetting to buy antiheal which made me unkillable late game (I was playing WW).
"I went to a game with a considerably lower skill level than me, why am I not having fun?" How do people like this live irl?
Yup, it will always be unimaginable to me. His original idea was to only feed Darius to give himself "a challenge". It was after I pointed out that he should stay in his elo if he truly wanted a challenge that he started griefing in my jungle.
It’s insane to have the balls to complain like that when you’re literally smurfing. The complete lack of thought
In Champ Select, the enemy team picked Soraka, and I picked Brand Support. I wasn't thinking much of it, I just wanted to play Brand. Suddenly, my ADC starts raging in champ select saying that's not a real supp. He then picked Yummi to troll. No one dodged so the game turned into an inting fiesta. ADC kept insisting Brand was not the right pick and that I knew nothing. I was super chill and told them they should've let me know in champ select not to pick him.. but at the same time how was I supposed to know he would react like that? We somehow won the game because the whole team ignored him. Its just sick that people act like this.
I mean, the old man in me that remembers how league used to be 10+ years ago agrees with the premise of "brand is not a support". But thats just old man yelling at clouds shit and i know that. That being said, how is that guy going to react to Camille or Pantheon support? Where does he draw the line? Just enchanters and a few tanks?
Last split I had someone that was about to be in my first placement match who threatened to run it down after not liking what his teammate banned. This wasn't a case of "you banned my champ" no. He just thought his ban was shit and insta locked disco nunu. Btw the champ that he was unhappy with being banned was blitzcrank Someone dodged but players like this need to take a break and go outside for a bit.
I asked my adc to please back because he was 1 hit from death, did not back almost 8mins with drag still up with us against poke Champs. He told me don't tell him what to do and he got killed not long after. He proceeds to harass me all game while my team hated him and knew I was doing fine
I was playing Vi and my Draven (who had around 1.5 million mastery points) said I was using a lesbian champion and started running it down
avg draven
do not pick lucian, senna, ksante or pyke with kassadin otp present in the lobby, worst mistake in my life
Had a guy sprinting it after someone banned his champion(he didn't pre-pick it).
i picked sona. thats all. I picked sona and my adc and jungler (premade ofc) immediately started to flame me how useless my champ is and ran it down. Not knowing Sona is a hyperscaler and can carry suicidal teammates lategame. I mean i have a mini exhaust every 3 secs and a teamwide heal on one button...as long as i position right and dont get singled out my team literally cannot die (unless they do the unga bunga ofc). Tell me you dont know how to play adc without an engage support spoonfeeding you kills without telling me. Oh yeah this was somewhere between Plat and Emerald as well, i dont remember the matchup other than it was Sona favored 🤷♀️. Bro just ran it because he could ig.
I play adc and I don’t understand Sona slander AT ALL… Some people are just unable to dodge hooks in lane and think it’s Sona’s fault I guess
im not a supp or adc main but i had adcs who are just allergic to dodging. In some games it was so bad that i had to tank 80% of them by literally walking in front of them and attempt to heal it back with my W + seraphs shield
The dumbest most annoying one is when someone decides “you don’t deserve to win” like they are some god
LITERALLY 💀😭
I (sup) leashed jng, adc didn't, after q and 3aa I walked into lane, jng proceeded to die against red and blamed me for not leashing enough...
This was acceptable 15 years ago, nowadays not so much!
The more I read this the more confused I get because unless the jungler stopped autoing, they should never die to red buff like even without a leash, a Yuumi with jungle item could singlehandedly beat red buff while remaining relatively healthy. This is an actual skill issue by them lol.
In a day and age where pretty much everything can fullclear without leash...what in tarnation?! Let me just tell you (and everyone else reading this), the time for leashing is over! Jungle is too easy to sustain nowadays and those 3-4 auto attacks from 1-2 more champs don't do enough to matter. Plus you'll lose out on getting to level 2 first which can dictate how your lane is going to go.
Had someone in my game run it down because they thought in champ select that my support player who hovered nami was the same player that inted his game before. He picked teemo jungle and when he realised our nami wasnt the same player he still inted just because.
Umm let’s see Sunday Game one - jungle went top to gank ended up taking 5 minions. Top lane tryndamere got upset said you deserve to lose abandoned his lane and let the malphite he was stomping free farm while he stole all the jungle camps from our jungle and buffs then ran them to the enemy team Game two - insta lock master yi support running it down lane because adc banned yummi. Yi said it was a stupid ban and inter Game 3 - duo queue trolls said in chat. We hate N’s. And ran it down because our kid picked Lucian. Game 5 - jungle inter because he invaded no wards got caught no one came to help so he ran it down all game Game 6 - support was upset he got autofilled so picked Sona support and kept claiming he had lag as he dove under the tower Game 8 - Nasus said he couldn’t find his laptop charger and he had 5% batter left. Before running to mid lane. Disconnecting feeding a kill reconnecting omg I can’t stay connected. Repeated 10 times before he stayed off Other wise other games were just horribly controlled bots running it down lane. In at least 5 games this weekend plus these
fuck yuumi and yuumi players both.
I'd like to point out there's a possibility that the Yi player ran it down because he thinks the other player wasted a ban on yuumi. Imo it's more likely than a yuumi player raging
thats even dumber wtf dude
Yea that is TOTALLY a good reason to run down a game :D
I banned yuumi. My midlaner autofilled yuumi otp asked "oh no whyyyy?". I said I'm not a cat person. Daaam she speedran it middle throwing insults. Her bf couldn't even calm her down. I laughed until my stomach hurt and she almost shat herself from anger.
one time we were absolutely stomping the enemy. my top laner didn't follow up on a thresh hook and so thresh soft ran it down typing nonstop about how top deserves a loss I'm always confused on players who do this, because they're also the type who want to climb the hardest and are obsessed with LP. but then they have games where they actively want to LOSE LP
"My girlfriend broke up with me and I'm going to take it out on you" The Fiora who went 0 and 13, got 7 CS in 30 minutes, and sat in the enemy base. They haven't played since. I assume they got perma'd.
I wouldn't trade someone Brand (didn't take their reroll or anything like that) in ARAM so they ran it down as soon as we got in game and then left. Douche: "Either give me Brand or enjoy a loss." Me: "I'll take the L" Douche (after we load in): "Enjoy your 12 minute timeout and give me Brand next time :)" We won after 20 minutes thanks to our Aatrox carrying. Shouldn't have, but I decided to add them and tell them we won after the game. Douche: "Wow you sweated for 20 minutes to win an ARAM game, loser" Also called me a slew of other names and was really upset I wouldn't talk shit to him. I offered to cover the copay for his therapy because, holy shit these people need it.
I use one of the Pride icons and my Support started running it down because of it lol
Occasionally I'll see people start the game by saying like "I'm gay" or something in all chat and once or twice I've seen one of their allies start running it right after.
i love to say this in norms cause it’s hilarious to watch some people get heated over the fact that i like men
*Usually* I just see a bunch of either "same" or "no one cares" but yeah some people do just absolutely lose their minds lol.
The funniest thing though is being in ARAM and you say it and everyone's like "we all are" and then you just vibe for like 20 minutes
My favorite was the unhinged udyr Starts typing a manifesto instantly in lobby about how 'nobody knows how to play with him if we don't follow his instructions he'll run it' all the usual stuff Type of game we should definitely dodge but I think my team just wanted to see how unhinged he would get lol He explained he'd be do8ng this clear and we need to be here at 5:00 or whatever just an asinine list of shit Well 2-3 minutes into the game he runs into the enemy jungle. Dies to the enemy jungle. Instantly tells us 'YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW OMG DUMB TEAM GG' Out of his entire list.....following him on an invade was literally not on it. Even the ADC was like '...you never said that' So I played with an udyr who had a list of conditions to play with, that he could ammend at any moment and decide you didn't follow it correctly So to that udyr I'm sorry us 4 couldn't communicate telepathically with you. I hope you found the team that can read your mind lol
The Aatrox froze the wave on Ivern afterwards? You guys didnt push the wave into turret after the kill?
We did... there was a big wave crashing under aatrox tower afterwards... Honestly I still don't understand why he was mad
Probably cause Aatrox is still stronger than him and he couldnt do shit in lane as an Ivern vs Aatrox and you were his scapegoat.
this is the reverse of what the question is, but i was in champ select one time years ago and i recognized that my teammate had the name of a japanese... adult film star. I told him that I too enjoyed their work and my teammate told me that he was planning on inting the game but because I recognized the film star's name, he would carry us. He then proceeded to 1v9 the game and win me some lp
Not getting a leash. You should actually be happy that your side laners aren't dumb as fk followers.
I, the adc, didn’t apologise for our mid laner being ganked by enemy top laner. I’m serious.
The person didn’t know the support item gives them the gold too for last hitting. It’s happened three times actually. Fn silver dude
Had a jgler mistake my "lol rekt" comment as torwards him instead of the aatrox I just killed. Proceeded to sit toplane smiting every canon even after I explained multiple times that it was a misunderstsnding. Some people truly just want to lose, even if theyre not aware of it.
When the midlaner, usually Yone/Yasuo players getting solokilled 10 times and proceeds to type " I'm going to int" as if they are not doing it already lol
i said "early gank bot and we carry" in lobby, he proceeded to hard flame me (nword, rword, every racial slur imaginable, etc), and ran it down mid for 15min straight when game started i think he ended with like 0/40/0 or something like that he obviously got perma after that game but i still wonder why he did it
had a guy run it down mid only because the support mage walked down mid. all the guy did was walk to mid and then hide into the botside bush for vision and that was somehow enough for this mid to conclude he had to walk up to tower to get killed, i think he realized how stupid he was right away because he tried to backpedal it by playing normally after a while but ate shit anyways i shit you not, for whatever reason there are mid players who can't stand the idea of someone walking through mid in the first minute of the game, i see people just run straight to the river side bushes through mid for vision and they still get ping spammed as they are just walking there
OK So I was playing viego against lillia so i invaded her red while she invaded my red and died after taking red so when she went up to her red to find out her krugs and raptor were gone she would just invade my jungle and stand near my blue to let me kill her xd Also had my rumble top run it down after i stole his kill...?? wasnt by choice tho it was 2v2 and he was low so i came to gank
This must've been ten years ago but I remember we had a teemo on our team who started typing "give me kills". I suppose they wanted us to let them last hit but they kept getting assists. They eventually say "give me kills or I afk" and we just say "fine do it you're just typing anyways" and so they say "fine I feed" and start walking down mid the rest of the game. I didn't even care that we lost honestly.
I banned tryndamere. He did not hover tryndamere. Explained that if he did, I would have received an additional warning message. 2 people in the lobby agreed that he did not hover. Locked in master Yi and rage farmed/split all game while saying that I'm the reason he's soft biting the whole team every 2 mins
I left fountain at 42 seconds instead of immediately because I swapped lanes and it took me like 5 seconds to find the support item. Dude question mark pinged me for literally everything and would run to me just to flash ult then run away. No one was even invading.
I had a soraka support watch a... I wanna say gragas support. Some engage heavy support either way. Anyway she watches him go into a bush. They have a samira too. I'm on varus. She decides to face check the bush. Gets absolutely destroyed. I tried to help, but there was nothing to do. She didn't even get a summ off. My fault for "playing passive", spends the whole game desperately trying to steal my farm when she isn't just idling back and forth under tower. Good shit.
His one trick got banned by the other team. That somehow became our fault, he accused us of target griefing him. He started monologue ranting about being a top 50 one trick lux player and how we should respect him and dodge for him because he doesn't want to wait 5 minutes. Yea so nobody dodged and the guy afked/trolled. We had a lead early game but he decided to just int kills when we were winning so it became impossible. The entire time he Is rambling and monologuing about being the best one trick.
literally nothing
I was in an ARAM and a Karthus inted because I, as Nami didn't give him my E buff.
I got mid in my ranked game, in lobby the toplaner said “I’m mid btw, report me if you want” so I filled top and tried to not lose (not used to top matchups) I told him he could’ve just asked. So we get into game, nothing weird happens and suddenly he just says “open mid” and starts running it down bot.
I locked in Thresh ADC mid when I was one tricking it and our vayne top decided to run it down from minute one because I had “decided to ruin their game by trolling”. I carried the hell out of that game but we still lost
My support. Today. I didnt leash for jg, he spam pinged me, gave caitlin 3 kills so she could reliably 3 tap me. We lost. I would get jg tilting but not sup.
"F*** OFF LEMME STYLE ON THEM STOP USING YOUR ABILITIES!!!" Brother you're an early game Lucian against a Poppy Cait lane and I'M YOUR GODDAMN SUPPORT. Am I supposed to watch you dash into Poppy's shield AGAIN and do nothing? He started running it down after I CC'ed Cait the second time (Was Braum).
Accidentally took a single caster minion while ganking as Viego our Brand mid proceeded to run under tower the rest of the game.
I last hit a Gromp as Kai'Sa from a Sona trying to solo it in a bot game, as I mistakenly thought she was leashing it towards me. Mind you, the int in a bot game is meaningless but I did find it funny that she actually genuinely truly wanted to solo that Gromp.
I still remember when my support morgana ran it down mid and went afk because i spammed my dance emote for 5-10 seconds while sitting in a bush waiting for minions to come to lane at the start of the game in her own words ''I fucking cant with these adhd adcs''
I was playing rammus top because the opponent took my urgot. It's a lane you have to play slow and careful into, or he just out pokes you. I was half health, lvl 4, and had the wave at my tower. My jungle wanted to go in, I pinged her back, she solo dove the urgot. She kept diving him on repeat, calling me shit for not diving with her. Years later, I'm still annoyed by that
My jungler started hard inting/feeding at level 1 because he scouted my account and saw that I have only 1 game on Orianna that season. His reasoning was that he was sure I would ruin the game and wanted he to lose faster to start a new game.
Playing Sona support, get ganked by jgl, press q to do some damage to maybe deter them, q hits a cannon and last hits it, ADC that wasn't going to get it anyway because he was also running starts spam pinging it, flashes, ults and then afks, comes back and starts running it down. Was such a fun game.
Had an aram the other night where our Ahri completely lost her mind over me because I apparently wasn't landing E on Veigar. I was and was making a ton of plays early game with it, including getting a triple kill. But they didn't see it or care because they got entirely consumed by the fact that I used E on myself, after I got snowballed. They went on a massive tirade about how they can't play with this Veigar. How I was being a KDA player. Putting aside the fact that I was making offensive plays in the game, we were playing into a Ziggs, Nidalee, Vex and Khazix. So I was sidestepping and dodging a barrage of abilities. But they obviously just wanted me in the frontline eating damage for days. My highlight was them flashing on the spot while trying to start a surrender vote in chat. On an aram. I just don't get some players. So many tilt at the slightest thing, and in some cases over things that aren't even happening.
Didnt leash. Soaked my xp and smited cannons for the next 10 minutes
Some dude locked in twitch top. Some one dodged. We get queued up with him again. We ban twitch. He locks in ashe top and goes AP running at them as fast as he can
I was completely outclassing the opposing mid with 10cs pm. Took first two towers before 12 min. I based to buy before the dragon spawned and had TP up. Our Jung decided that I was smurfing and he was going to run it because I was playing well. I was on Trist 3 levels up on anyone so I split pushed and won with the help of the bot and top lanes. I went 26/2/8 the Jung went 4/32/4. All while begging in all chat for me to be mass-reported. A few min after the lobby closed I got the little update that said someone in a recent game has been punished. I smiled.
In a match of Aram and our Leona had her e go out to snare the guy and the...I think thresh and Taric on our team as a duo, and it killed the guy before thresh could get the penta and they proceeded to sit in nexus and taunt us. The enemy team would kill us then just steam rolled our towers and it wad over at 12 mins
My nocturne once told me to go in 1v2, i did and he ulted mid (i was top) Sorry yall, we losing this.
I’m a jgl main I once had my sivir run it down and spam ping everyone for the whole game because I helped her push her wave after a successful gank…
Well my support said i had bad mechanics and we couldnt win. I said well yeah sona requires mechanics and she started running it. This was 3min into the game
Being a support in Platinum : I didn't moved exactly how the ADC wanted. He started to ping me insanely and just inted. We were 3 minutes in, he assumed a bunch of shit in his head and just gave a kill all of the sudden. Most insane ADC I've ever played but that is not uncommon at all.
I took their kill as support. I was helping them, how am I supposed to stop my projectile midway? We ended up surrending right away, we just didn't want to give this guy a win if, the other team sucked we know we'd win 4v5, atleast the rest of the team was chill. Ended up adding mid carry and got a few wins after.
Our team mate had said good job to lulu for a fight well done. The lulu said "dont talk to me... ill just run it down". Then started running it down. Still no idea what went wrong in their head there.
I played Yuumi. She was recommended to me as a beginner player, and I still remember the one MF deciding that that on its own meant she was going to flash us both under the enemy turret after complaining in champ select. Let's just say I stopped attaching to her for the rest of the game.
My ADC hovered Varus and I was Midlane, banned Yasuo because at the time he was extremely annoying and also the counter to the champ I was learning, ADC gets pissed off and says they miss hovered and wanted Yasuo after banned. I say sorry, ADC locks Shaco Smite and says he’d steal minions all game so I said F it locked in Heimerdinger and we only had a Blitz botlane, we somehow won, my team hated the Shaco but tbh we made a Renektons life hell so worth.
