Vel'koz and Rakan

Radiant Wukong··1 votes·741 views

Were both in my last RANKED match. Rakan mid. Vel'koz support.

Why isn't this stupid shit reportable in champ select? Why isn't this behavior accepted as griefing?

Edit: Vel'koz was supposed to be mid, but Rakan forced him into support because he wouldn't leave mid.

Rakan mid was all in the rage in korea for the past few months as a top tier pick. And also Vel'koz support is viable for more than 3 years. The only problem I see is your intolerance to stuff you never seen before.

You should not be able to ban people for their picks. Being off meta is perfectly fine. That time they banned a 60% winrate(?) singed because he wasnt playing meta is a big reason why I stopped playing this game.

As a Vel'Koz main, Vel'Koz can be a very powerful support. Though i don't like the Vel'Koz Support idea that much, but hey, it works, so be it. Rakan mid is already a thing, and though rarely i see that, so far it's working pretty well. So no, it's not reportable, and it's acceptable. They both still have their strength and weaknesses. I've seen Lulu ADC on ranked, with Blitz, and we got 1st turret in like 10 minutes (i was Vel'Koz support, of course at first i was concerned). So just chill man and give it a chance from time to time. Don't judge a book by its cover.

? Both of those are acceptable, in either role. I get that you might not be comfortable with Rakan mid, but he can be a strong, if not niche, mid lane option.

Those two on a single team have a strong engage.

Edit: you also have the added benefit of flexing where either champ go, leaving for potentially advantageous mismatches.

Because those are both normal picks for those champions, currently.

Please, you guys go add the fucking 0/9 mid lane Rakan to your friends list and duo with him since you accept that bullshit!

Then that is the person feeding. and not about the pick. Lets be honest here, that person can pick Lux, Zed, Yasuo, even Nunu mid with predator and run it down mid and still have the same exact results.

forcing someone to take over your role is reportable. "Unsportsmanlike conduct" and even "Helping the enemy team" are option. Though you have to explain how forcing vel'koz out of mid set your botlane behind and made this player tilt to get that through

Bot lane did well. There was no tilt because he moved positions. The tilt came from me, jungler and bot lane because the fucking enemy roaming mid started crapping on all of us after Rakan went 0/4 in lane before 10 minutes.
