League of Uncompromise

I've been writing these threads for upwards of three years now, and still nobody has yet to buy a clue.

If you go as an all assassin team composed of Master Yi, Yasuo, Talon, Vayne and Lee Sin, don't fucking complain when one enemy champion can counter all of you. I've seen this happen too many times to count, and nobody learns. EVER. Everyone thinks the next person needs to pick some other class; everyone thinks they're an island who will do all the damage and get all the kills and everybody else just needs to know their place and let them carry.

To make matters worse, when they overspecialize to this degree, they start doing every possible thing wrong to make their situation worse, refusing go for objectives or ward or do anything, instead letting the entire team take one objective after another and forcing themselves into a defensive position where assassins fare worst, and then try to force a teamfight when everyone is behind, even when the first twenty times have failed.

And nobody has yet to learn.

These concepts are so basic, bacteria can understand it, but when it comes to League players, it's lightyears beyond the moon. Instead they deflect the blame on a troll team or anything else they could desperately grasp at and bury themselves into an ever deeper delusional abyss. And every goddamn last one of them will just move on to the next game and repeat the exact same mistakes with the exact same team and the exact same champions, measured all the way down to the micrometer.

And I am something beyond tired of this; I would LOVE to be tired of this again. That's how bad it has gotten, and no matter what new champions come out, what new balance changes are made, what new incentives there are, people will refuse to learn, compromise, adapt, or even slightly change anything.

I'm rather thankful that I enjoy playing tanks, utility/siege mages and enchanters.

It is rare to find a game where they aren't needed in our team composition.

Honestly, I've been debating picking up Yorick to take down objectives.

He is a fantastic splitpusher who can decimate towers and is capable of solo-ing neutral objectives (i.e. Dragon, Rift Herald, Baron) with ease.

God knows people are usually too busy chasing kills to bother taking objectives and I can't affording waiting for them to group.

He is great for solo carry but a coordinated team will make you useless

And that's why I play Yorick and Kled so much. You don't need a team but if you have a half-decent one you can still function well.

I was going to post something very similar to this and I have to say Autofill has made this issue far worse. This community has a serious IQ issue.

and then try to force a teamfight when everyone is behind, even when the first twenty times have failed.

I thought this stuff was all false, that teamfighting and then getting an ace was the only way to win, but then I came back from a massive gold lead and won the game because I kept farming and stalling. Had the most cs in the game (like 60 more than everyone else) then continued to splitpush and apply pressure to every lane. Usually, I'm that one guy hard carrying and going for teamfights even though we're behind, but adapting is surely something I'm working on.

One game I ended up going 1-5 top lane because the jungler camped the hell out of me and flash tower dove me multiple times. Eventually he and the top laner abandoned the lane, and I ended up leading us to victory by pushing the hell out of both top and bot lanes with almost no resistance.

You may have been playing league for a long time, but not everyone has. Casual plebs just never catch on to this stuff.

Nice opinion, off to the trash bin it goes

Interestingly enough there isn't much of a compromise to be made for mostly AD teams because of how busted armor pen as a whole is.
