Say what you will about shit like AP poppy, at least it kept the game fresh and interesting. The game has 141 champs, which, to any reasonable person, would mean there's more variety now and yet people only ever pick from 20 or so. So boring. Riot has sacrificed the FUN in the game to chase meta fairies. Way to go.
Jamaree5 votesPicks don't mean shit until high Diamond.

Not what I was talking about, but thanks.
MagicFlyingLlama7 votesActually it was exactly what you are talking about.
MagicFlyingLlama4 votesThen you should learn to write what you mean, because that is what you said.

Or maybe you should learn to read and stop putting words into other people's mouths. At no point in my original post did I ever bring up ranked or "high diamond." The only thing similar to my post and his is the word "picks." Not all of us play the game because we're desperate to boost our ego. There is a normal mode in case you're blind.
MagicFlyingLlama3 votesSo option B: shit reading and writing comprehension.
Picks dont matter below pro play, everything is viable, to the point of absurdity at really low ELO.
If that is too hard, the person you responded to was specifically saying that picks dont matter below high-elo play. Which is exactly what you are talking about.
Just back out instead of making a further ass of yourself. Nobody cares about ego, but you seem to have an unhealthy amount of 'care' about backpedaling and starting moronic arguments over your own statements.

Speak for yourself. Like I said, I never mentioned ranked. That's something you care about. Since when was I obligated to cater my post to you?
MagicFlyingLlama3 votesTL;DR trash comprehesion. Just go away.
I never mentioned ranked.
Well, first, neither did i. Normal games have matchmaking levels just like ranked do.
Option A: you implicitly implied it and meant that there are only 20 picks in high ELO play - which means ranked.
Option B: you meant there are only 20 picks in any ELO, which is provably bullshit.

The first poster did and you agreed with him. Therefore, you think this is about ranked. You trying to shoehorn normals in now isn't helpful. Sorry about the whole logic thing. Must be frustrating for you.
MagicFlyingLlama2 votesBelow/Above Diamond is a very commonly used way of denoting pro play vs casual play, take the semantics to the trash where they belong. It means skill level and meta.
There is no difference between ranked and normals outside of one not having LP or visible ranks. The game, meta and skill levels are identical.
Nobody mentioned ranked. Dont try to twist words when there is a clear, obvious meaning already. You just make yourself look like an idiot.
TL;DR nothing but semantics and ad hominem. I can play this game better than you if you want to go down that road. Just save some face and get the fuck out, kid.

Actually, there is a difference, one is for the purposes of displaying your rank. The other one doesn't. Attitude and behavior of players change as well. How you don't know this is beyond me.
You say no one mentioned ranked and yet there is a post that you quoted from the first guy talking about ranks. I guess it's hard for you to remember things you wrote, so you gotta push that responsibility onto others whether they want to or not.
MagicFlyingLlama2 votesActually, i do know it. It just has absolutely nothing to do with metagame, nor this discussion. The massed downvotes you are getting are also unrelated, but still funny.
I know exactly what i wrote and explained exactly what it means, yet you continue to spew meaningless semantics. Cant beat bloody stupid on its home turf.
Oh well, time to ignore.

I think it's funny you think downvotes mean anything at all when the gameplay boards are known for being a massive circlejerk. And you saying you "know what you wrote" doesn't really mean much when you can't express yourself properly to others. It might be time for you to practice what you preach. It'll make you seem like less of a hypocrite.
Anatera1 votes<Removed by Moderation>
You mean like you? Telling me that the guy was talking about ranked even though I wasn't?
I knew you were a hypocrite.
ModPeriscope1 votesClearly, the OP never brought up rank, but what has been ineloquently put forward is that this issue is inevitably tied to rank. Maybe take a step back and try to see something from someone else's view point, instead of calling their reading and writing comprehension shit.
Just back out
Wise advice if you're arguing with someone and neither of you are getting anywhere.
