Trynd, Yas, Riven mains, you are NOT good players

Darkinlegend·12/15/2016, 8:35:15 PM·14 votes·2,309 views

Just because you can dash around all crazy without having to worry about building mana or cool down reduction doesn't make you good.

Just because you can focus your build like a laser on AD because you have a build in shield that scales off of AD or you defy death for 4 seconds, doesn't make you good.

I literally have no respect for people who main those cheese ball champions. They are all annoying and wrong for the game. Their build path is so easy they never have to think about doing anything differently in any match.

They are free from

1)having to use different builds for different matches 2)having to worry about incorporating mana into their build 3)having to worry about building cool down reduction into their build 4)Having to worry about incorporating tankiness into their build

How much longer to we have to endure their existence?

I'm annoyed by them to man. But calling them out is just salt.

Riven and Yasuo, believe it or not, have very obvious lines between being a beginner and a great player. Not all of their mains are going to be like "oh lemme go 1v5 and get a penta" All ADCs do is just right click and kill people from a distance. Mages just land their long range skillshots, both of them have an easy time farming. Meanwhile, these two are close ranged melee fighters that have a much harder time farming and actually killing someone in the first place.

idk about trynd

As a Riven main I am offend.

Also Aatrox doesn't have mana either!

I'm a support Tryndamere main. Come at me, OP.

Someone's salty... (Hint: it's you)

I'm not even going to try to argue with you because your argument is so dumb.

The irony that this is coming from an Aatrox and Nasus main is too funny.

True, none of these champions build mana.

or cool down reduction doesn't make you good.

Riven and even Tryndamere should run cooldown reduction for max effectiveness. In fact, it is Riven's most important stat, maybe more than raw AD.

Just because you can focus your build like a laser on AD because you have a build in shield that scales off of AD or you defy death for 4 seconds, doesn't make you good.

Tryndamere has to build AD, CDR, attack speed, crit, and lifesteal.

Yasuo has to build all of that save CDR, but actually has to buy resistances and some HP, whereas Tryndamere can go full damage (Riven gets a little more defense than Tryndamere but not much).

I literally have no respect for people who main those cheese ball champions.

And no one has any respect for you my friend.

They are all annoying and wrong for the game.

Nah, that would be Aatrox, who is deliberately kept undertuned for this very reason.

Their build path is so easy they never have to think about doing anything differently in any match.

What do you know about their different build paths? They all can build differently depending on the match.

item 3046 item 3006 item 3022 item 3031 item 3072 item 3026

This is the standard Yasuo top lane build.

item 3046 item 3153 item 3047 item 3031 item 3143 item 3102

This is a build focused on splitpushing and dueling.

item 3087 item 3078 item 3111 item 3031 item 3072 item 3053

This is an assassin Yasuo build.

All are viable, all depending on the game.

They are free from

1)having to use different builds for different matches

Already addressed, this is bullshit.

2)having to worry about incorporating mana into their build

Granted.

3)having to worry about building cool down reduction into their build

So how stupid does someone need to be to believe this?

Cooldown reduction is Riven's core stat, alongside AD. 40% CDR is not an option on her, it is MANDATORY. Most Rivens take 10% CDR in their blues already, then build Black Cleaver and Ionians for 40%.

This is such a monumentally stupid statement I am left wondering if your post was trolling. Was it?

Even Tryndamere often gets CDR. On top of 10% from his runes, he can build this:

item 3087 item 3158 item 3071 item 3153 item 3031 item 3046

4)Having to worry about incorporating tankiness into their build

Usually true for Tryndamere, not true for Riven and Yasuo. They are expected to build mostly damage, but they still usually need to devote some gold to durability.

How much longer to we have to endure their existence?

How much longer will we have to endure your shitposting?

Im not gonna say they cant be good a good player but you dont have to be good with any of those champions to beat other people on most other champions.

Agreed! Playing these champs and winning games by carrying with them makes you good. Pointing out their abilities and arbitrarily stating that playing those champs doesn't make someone "good" is no argument at all.

Oh what ever will we do.

They are all annoying and wrong for the game. Their build path is so easy they never have to think about doing anything differently in any match.

False. If this were true why are there several different skill tiers for these champions and what makes their build paths "easier" than any other champion? Last I checked these champions don't build exclusive items.

They are free from

1)having to use different builds for different matches

False

2)having to worry about incorporating mana into their build

True, even though many champions (even mana users) also don't need to incorporate mana directly in their build.. so...

3)having to worry about building cool down reduction into their build

So what? CDR, like any stat, is situational depending on the champion, role, and needs for your team.

4)Having to worry about incorporating tankiness into their build False. They can choose to build zero tank items and be squish squish, which would be a vulnerability you and your team can exploit, with some coordination and/or the right tools in your team comp.

How much longer to we have to endure their existence? As long as it takes you to realize these champions are not immune to bans, and in the event they make it into your game you can actually counter-play them.
