Dodging is the cowardly way. Learn to put up with trolls and you will do a lot better.

For what it is worth most of the "someone please dodge" games I've have I end up winning. Why? Because that person taking Braum jungle or Alistar mid a lot of times actually know what they are doing. And many of the times they don't win it isn't because they took Braum Jungle or Alistar mid. It is because someone called them retarded and decided to troll the game and sabotage them because "it's a loss anyway."

Or they actually are just trolling. I just got out of a game with lastpick 'support' azir. fed relentlessly, stole as much farm as he could, never bought a SS or even upgraded his trinket.

Besides, what about the lobbies where kids are screaming at each other before the bans are finished?

I'd even go so far as to say "dodge if you think last pick didn't get a role they know how to play" aka they ask to not adc and then pick Cait, or they ask for jungle and take WW top.

I saw a video by a challenger player saying to dodge if your team picks champions you dislike playing with. I think that's a bit much, but I'll dodge if they pick a champion I never see do well these days (idk what it is about anivia, but every time someone picks her in my games she's oom level 2, dead level 3, turret gone soon after).

You gotta remember that dodging, for all intents and purposes, costs nothing. So any time you see a game that looks like you've got a suboptimal chance of winning it's the sensible thing to do.

I like you. For having faith in players like me (rest in pepperoni's Akali Support).

i actually tend to do well in the evenings. the down side is relatively lower skilled players. the up side (at least if you are a support or mid-carry) is relatively lower skilled players. lol is life, except for yours, that is on fire.

Evenings really favor a carry playstyle, because the kids tend to shut up when you go 25/0 and the enemy team tilts a lot harder. People that play as more of a team-enabler are just gonna hate their life when their team refuses to be enabled.

I should actually break out the support for that. The more egoistical adcs will never admit to themselves that a 'mere support' can burst them down.
