Before the Boards disappears, I want this to happen:

Shit like Vayne top dies. Talking changes that kill the viability of it and makes it unable to return. If toplane champs cant be played in the adc position, then why should adcs that are not tuned around top be able to top? Before anyone goes, "but the pickrate is low" No shit its low, because you have two different vayne playerbases: The one that actually toughs it out botlane, and the one that seeks freelo in top. Its also a pick that usually is picked once the toplane pick on the other side is shown. Thats the only other counterplay to it beside cheese, which requires the vayne pick to be out before your pick. You would have to camp it, which would mean other lanes are free to be camped by the enemy jg, which would be botlane, which then causes you to lose control of drake pit. Not only that, but she scales into late, so good luck having your camp matter.

This isn't a case of the "Hashinshin Effect", its a case of a high elo toplaner thats tired of having their lane being plagued with shit that shouldnt be there while other lanes dont have that problem. The only reason why I ask this before Boards disappears is because Reddit will likely sandbag toplane opinions long as Hashinshin breathes.

Ah, yes, classic G&B.

The Vayne circlejerk going strong to the bitter end.

And this is why the boards are being killed.

Vayne top is unviable. Simple as that. It has never been viable except when Vayne was busted as shit in other lanes. The only people who think it's actually viable are either deliberately ignoring facts or cannot actually read them.

Congrats, you are the reason why the boards are being kiled off. Perpetual dumpsterfire threads comlaining about trash tier picks like Vayne top in endless circles with no thought or reason. But sure, there is no problem with S tier picks you play like Sett and Ornn. Those get a different set of standards.

If it's so Freelo then why don't you just play it to Challenger?

The playrate is low. It would be incredibly rare for them to touch it. It isn't being banned, it isn't being played and for how little it does get played it isn't even winning all that often. Please tell me how would you nerf top vayne without affecting her ADC role?

Yeah people that are on boards are usually silver so they don't play top at all or don't face good vayne top players. Absolutley agree with the statements but you will get downvotes because "no bro vayne is balanced you need to learn to play against her im good i reached silver 2 you need to bully her in the lane".

lmao to all the people saying this is why the boards are being killed, its because riot doesnt like the fact that people are criticizing them and that they have no more excuses to give us as to why nothing is going on. When in doubt, if you dont like what people are saying, kill their platform of speech and send them to gulag. Thats exactly whats happening to the boards, "if we cant see people discussing our failures, then it doesnt exist"

It has under a 1% pick rate. :/

You’re also one of those people who say “adcs need to stop crying about mages in their lane cause they aren’t high pick rate” yet here you are.
