(Catch up to the news from other threads.)

So, it turns out this guy is the highest master Signed of all time. The person talking in the video is not the singed main who got banned. He is an already famous youtuber (90.000 subs) who has been covering the playstyle of the most experienced players in the world on each champion.

Riot, one of the reasons you were afraid of introducing this whole "pick your role before you get into the game" thing was because it may enforce the meta, am I wrong?

And yet, today you are enforcing the meta through bans.

If he had a positive win-rate, why was it bad?

Yes, a roaming support Singed may cause frustration to his team, but so did Eve back in season 1 I believe, so does having a bad game, being outplayed and feeding.

Lastly, this video claims this guy did communicate with his team. Even if he didn't, then the support specialist should have replied "tell them you're going to do it" not "don't do it".

I think you should talk it out with each other and discuss what you should do about this support roaming Singed; and tell us.

I didn't know I could report people for not buyin sightstone or not wardin. First, ward items are not mandatory for support, nor jungle. It was prolly introduced cus ppl in general are lazy fucks and can't ward themselves (you'd have 15 wards at once if they did, you know?!). But regardless. I doubt I can get anyone banned for not placing wards hahaha cus then the majority would just fall into oblivion. I'm sick and tired of asking people to ward, regardless of my role.

My guess was lack of communication which lead to frustration on behalf of every1 on their team. If I saw my support solo the enemy jungle at level 1 I would be pissed too, successful or not, the stress begins and it will add up when they do a bunch of other shit along the way. I personally hate Bard's meeps because he can literally go off leaving you 1v2 90% of the time, thinking that's what they're supposed to do :| All the way to the freakin top lane :| Enemy jungle, too :| So yea, a bit of communication can go a long way, but if they've not become a pro yet or major streamer so everyone knows that style and can rest assured is not a troll, they honestly cannot continue without learning some magically calming words.

EDIT: Off meta is for playing with friends til you're world renowned.
