The worst experience I have ever had with a game.

Swift2568 just went 12/5/4 as Fiddlesticks on Twisted Treeline

I have found the single most unfun game mechanic I have ever encountered. I'm shaking with rage over how that mechanic works. It hurt.

Playing 3v3. A Kalista player bound her ult to me. I was playing Fiddlesticks . This gave her the ability to interrupt my combo whenever she wanted.

There is nothing worse, as a player, than that split second when you press a key for an ability and it doesn't go. Then you press again, and it doesn't go. And there is a stupid circle on my curser and I really need my abilities to work and they don't.

And my teammate did this too me. I was never given an opportunity to say "no".

Dear Riot. Please give me the option to say "no". All I ask is that other players cannot take control from me without my consent.

if all 4 players decline she can pick whoever?

Last Kalista I saw was in an ARAM.

She decided to bind a teammate somewhat late, as our teams met in the middle. The resulting CC from the binding animation got him killed when our team jumped on him.

Teamwork OP.

It's stupid. The fact that they would implement a champion that can outright take control of another member's champion and they decided to make that something the other champion could at no point reject just boggles the mind. I can understand not wanting a Kalista to go an entire game without having a soulbound but it's so much more easily solved: Let the would-be Kalista player ask in champ select if anyone will bind to her and if nobody says yes, they don't need to lock her in. It's simple.

Bumping because Riot needs to resolve this.

Just afk from an aram. Please, report me for it. I was singed, and a kalista put her ult on me. Twice I was setup to toss a champion and she ulted, messing up my play.

Riot, wtf? I thought you swore never to give players the ability to troll their teammates back with Anivia's wall. How did this happen again?

I think you can opt to not click the spear. I've played a few ARAMs alongside Kalistas. I usually click it, but once last week I walked away and the spear was just lying there on the ground. I didn't see her ult anyone that entire game, so I don't think she bonded with anyone.

Yes, unfortunately I had a troll kallista decided to bond me during a fight. Couldn't move... Still won the lane and game but my god she ulted me every opportunity to mess with me. Unfortunately riot lied when they said mechanics like this would not exist. There was a big post about this back in 2009 and 2010 about how these mechanics would never make there way into league. Ofc like many lies I expected this to be a lie was well.

Absolutely. I'm unsure why Riot doesn't make it possible to decline. I get LilxPaprika comment, but then their should be a part of her kit thats like "if no soulbound is acquired, this ability does ABCD".

i agree, even dota has the option to switch off that kind of 'help' from your teammates

it should be in the options

Why doesn't it just function as so. .

Kalista throws down her spear. Any player can walk up to the spear to bind to Kalista. Hey, maybe you shouldn't bind someone at the summoning platform!
