Is It That Hard To Understand Nexus Siege?
I personally loooooooove Nexus Siege as a game mode. All the cool summoner spells and no need to worry about gold or exp just makes the game mode fun. However, my hate for Nexus Siege is growing as I play it more and more.
The more I play Nexus Siege, the more players I see that don't have a sense of objective. I would see players go for kills when their Nexus is wide open for taking. Wtf??? If NS wasn't a timed game mode, honestly I wouldn't give a sh*t if they feed. But nah man, gotta go for the kill that doesn't reward you anything other than some crystals that you aren't even gonna put to proper use. I also really hate people who are like "wait how do you get the summoner spells?" or "oh wut? What are the crystals for?" or just any other dumb questions. PEOPLE, ITS NOT THAT HARD. I FIGURED IT OUT IN THE FIRST GAME I PLAYED. Now you may be like, "well some people are just kinda thick and it takes them a while to figure something out". Well let me tell you something, I am not the brightest guy either. I did mediocre at school, got a lot of B's and C's because it takes me a looooooong loooooong time to understand something. Why can't people ever hover over something and read what it says? Why can't people go to this site http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/featured/nexus-siege before playing?
Offense: Cheap strat 101: Stack a bunch of balistas and shield totems together = ez turrets. Counterplay? Almost NONE because people would just camp at the balistas and if you come close they just chunk your health away. Especially when your teammates are just chasing down people and ignore the balistas.
Defense: Cheap strat 101: By a bunch of Storm Bulwarks and just take turn placing them on Nexus Turrets when they are under siege, use the time to take out enemy balistas.
Easy right? No. On offense people just go hur dur dur I'm just gonna put this lone turret without protection in the middle of the lane and let it get destroyed two seconds after I placed it down. On defense people just go hur dur dur gonna keep buying the Beam of Ruination (laser thing) and then miss all 3 of the shots. Welp there goes 100 crystals (1/2 of the cost of Storm Bulwarks).
I see this every game and I'm tired of it. Please people. Learn the game. And thanks for reading this because I just wasted 10 minutes of your life. I give up and I don't care anymore.
