Tryharding in normal

mc4life·Apr 29, 2019·1 votes·1,555 views

Recently it seems to more and more players are tryharding normal games. Whats the point of that? Precisely what i meet commonly:

More less every game + grasp, bone plat, revetialize, playing under tower/stacking.
Enemy midlaners camping everything.
Supports running over map and helping people(usually with janna since her skillset is perfect for that) as well as giving their best to save them (like flash barrier heal first item redemption and that stuff)
Literally every tank/fighter building spear of shojin.
Red kayn withat conqueror and full healing stuff aka undying kayn.
And many more examples

Since when fun isn't point of league? Before i was seeing ppl going ap varus, on hit khartus. ad lulu, even the brusier adc meta was more fun, jungle assasins, crit darius, nami top, even in ranked. Now ppl tryhard like against 10-20 lvl players, is there some reward for that or?

The point of playing a game is to win....

No. Games take 30 minutes, why the hell should I waste my time and troll build in a normal game? Winning is much more fun. I'll try hard red kayn every game.

I wouldnt call it "troll build" but if you would, then those "troll builds" are acutally fun, and no, i dont mean on 6 boots or 29 zeals, i mean on funky builds like lethality kha mid maxing w first, ap garen(ye that works), and that kind of stuff that bring excitement since you dont know will it work or not.

And if you really play game to win, then ill just ask you same thingn i ask those of your type. What did you achive in your life by winning that game?(Normal after all), by all this i can guess you are toxic player that tilts when his teammates are bad

You literally whine about others playing the game better than you and you losing because you want to try shenanigans . If we were playing fifa and i started saying i cant get 10 players in the offensive and win therefore the game isnt fun how stupid would i sound

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

Idc if im losing, that only matters in ranked, since it decides your division, what im trying to say is that there seems to normal games arent played for fun anymore, but for giving your best to win it, including doing unskilled stuff(like playing nasus and sitting undertower stacking 24/7) those stuff are freelo, but helllo, normal? Where did the fun in game go? im not complaining or anything, its just a simple question...

If you are bad you deserve to lose, if they are better they deserve to win.

If you want to win then get better. Asking to others to playing as bad as you because you want to have fun isn't what team games are for. Go back to singleplayer games in easy mode.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

Man i just said i dont care about wining or losing, im not asking anyone to play bad, i simply want to know what happend to league of legends since it isnt played for fun anymore? its question, not complainment...

Stars ShaperApr 30, 20192 votes

If your definition of fun is trollbuilds then find other ppl with the same mind asset and group up.

Playing in the best way possible, learning how to optimize stuff in order to win is my (and many others) kind of fun in this game.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

Man im not saying trollbuilds, just im pretty sure to noone enjoys doing 1 the same thing all over again...

Jimmy RustlesApr 29, 20193 votes

Dang, people trying to win

Maybe you just need to try harder on your meme builds

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

not meme builds mf, i take normal buiilds, just not those overpowered and "cancer" that include specific champion

And what would you like the "tryhards" that don't want to deal with ranked to play just so you can troll in norms? Bots? ARAM? Want them to quit? The game is about fun, sure, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try, no matter what game mode it is. No one is going to throw the game for their team just so you can try weird shit, because the world doesn't revolve around you.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

Who says im not having fun when i lose? Point of funky builds isnt to win, its to have fun, like going full movespeed heca and managing to one shot something at least once is probably not going to win you the game but if you did acutally one shot something, or did whatever goal you had, that game sure for was fun for you, im not asking ppl not to tryhard, everyone is free to tryhard, i like destroyign tryhards, i have nothing against them, Im just ASKING what changed soo ppl stopped doing random stuff and trying something that they didint see on web, since that was happening a lot before, especially in season 1

4 Step CadenceApr 30, 20192 votes

What changed is people realized that's trolling and you can get banned for it if you do it enough.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

Trying new builds isnt forbbiden, especially not on normal games, of course that excludes those that acutally troll with intention to destroy others fun(taxing, inting, purposely stealing something from your allies) i tried shit load of new builds and i have never ever gotten a single ban for it, sorry if u think to its trolling, but on your behalf im afraid its not.

4 Step CadenceApr 30, 20191 votes

It is. You are intentionally doing something that you know has a chance to not work for your own enjoyment with 0 concern for the 9 other people that are trapped in the game with you. They might not be okay with you doing that, and you have to respect that, because again, the world doesn't revolve around you. Trolling is basically purposefully doing things to piss people off, which is what you're doing. You just want to have fun, and you don't give a fuck about your teammates or your enemies who have to watch you feed your ass off when it doesn't work. You are ruining their fun, and you deserve to be banned for it because you are ruining the game for others just as much as any flamer, inter, or afker.

If you just want to have fun, play bots or a game that doesn't involve working with others, because PvP League isn't the game for you.

Ad/crit mundo, Ap tristana, brusier bot meta, taric/yi, adc's and midlaners jungle, adc's top, that nasus movespeed build, and many of weird builds are working day today, and they were all tested by players that wanted to see will it work or not. You can even find video of Vandrili doing ad/crit mundo, is he banned? No! Doing new stuff that might, or might not work is how the new meta gets born, like after every balance patch, some good things get nerfed/destroyed, and some stuff gets buffed giving opportunities for new stuff to be tried, that stuff may work or not, if they dont, u simply fail, if they do, its new meta. Testing new stuff is allowed and it will forever be. You are NOT forced to play what others say its gonna work. If other 9 people are gonna tilt about me that just means they care about me soo not the world, but game does reslove around me.

Games are made in first place cuz of humans need for fun. Tetris definitly wasnt made for wining, people are just misunderstandig the point, cuz they wanna prove they are best.

"Trolling" - doing stuff to purposely piss people off - Yes! That is completly correct! If i wanna piss someone off i will tax his entire lane entire game and int his lane, i will not try new builds that may work or not.

Riot needs a game mode that is in between practice tool and Norms where you can play new champs and be bad without getting flamed. But they're too busy getting sued for being a shitty company to care about improving the gaming experience.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

I dont think they care do ppl think they are shitty or not tbh, since they still didnt implement things players are asking for since the game was made:P

Stars ShaperApr 30, 20192 votes

God forbids to be actually trying to win a PvP mode of a game which objective is to win against the enemy team.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

Thanks for such usefull comment, it totally answer my question :)

Stars ShaperApr 30, 20192 votes

If it didn't you should re-read what the game is and its rules.

mc4lifeApr 30, 20191 votes

or you could re-read post and realize the question

i dont really see any of the things you said as (tryharding) unless if those players play on their main champion, if i ever tried riven in normal i will still build spear ,if i wanted to try red kayn i would still go with the better runes and items .

after all its better to test things in normals and not ranked (and for me its better to stay in support role if i ever went to ranked :P)

Cmon, unskilled picks are used for freelo, that undying stuff and playing way too safe and never taking any risks, where is excitement and fun in that? U can play some new picks that can win you game in 20 mins, after that u know does that pick work or not, or you can play same build, farm till 40 minute, and then even lose game sometimes.

hrooza dota Apr 30, 20191 votes

not really

i can pick nasus but i am sure i will feed my ass hard enough because i suck at all kind of right clickers, so i will tend to play hyper save because will im shit at that kind of champions and i know it, that nasus can be the same case as mine.
