I just argued with a Diamond Player...

Melledoneus··6 votes·710 views

...about the nature of Lee Sin's ultimate. He claimed that the counterplay was to "flash while he's channeling the kick."

I argued that no, Lee has a fraction of a second of a stun before he kicks to keep his target in place, making flashing out of it impossible on its own. He also called everyone in the game who died boosted or retarded, as a side note, so there's that...

I thought Diamond players were supposed to be knowledgeable about the game? Any Diamond players, help me with this one.

just because one diamond player is not knowledgeable doesn't mean every other diamond player is the same

I know, but how do people like that even get to Diamond?

Obviously by being kind of ok at the game.

U can flash though

Uh...

you CAN flash while he's channeling the kick.

It's an ungodly short window and after that you get rooted, but it's still part of the channel. I can attest because I've flashed it before on a number of occasions.

You can't. You're rooted the moment he presses R. You probably flashed his R-Flash or Flash-R. Both give a window to allow u to not fly into the enemy team, but it'll still hit you But if it's just a straight up R you won't be able to flash.

You've probably predicted the kick instead of reacting to it. Prediction =/= reaction.

it isnt a stun, its a root and no you cant flash during said root however you can Flash his R > Flash so you don't go flying into the enemy team.

Not really, I was genuinely curious.

If he was D5 it is like Silver 1 or Gold 5. Most Diamonds are fine imo at least compering to most of plat players. Maybe this one was also boosted, that often happens. It also depends on champion that this person gained Diamond, if he reached that with champ like vayne he can be mentally Silver.

He played Darius.

Chalizard1 votes

But is that his main champion?

It's a fucking root, not a stun. Please, everyone, stop confusing the two terms. They're very different things.
