Just a reminder about Blind Pick

Yes, sometimes people suck, it's Blind; they go there first to try new champions against actual players because it's commonly associated with less consequences and a more chill atmosphere.

So if you're playing blind and someone says it's their first time trying a champion or role- don't flame them. If they seem to be under-performing and losing- don't flame them. If they're building wrong or not playing the champion to the best potential- don't flame them. Blind is considered the prime testing ground to learn how to play something- especially Junglers.

I just had a game with someone trying to learn Xin jungle and two other players just constantly harassed him the entire game. Don't be those guys. Even if you can't bring yourself to be helpful enough to explain via chat what they should be doing- at least just be quiet and don't bitch them out. Edit: This might actually belong in Player Behavior but I don't know how to move it...

Okay, but please try a champ out in the Training Mode, then Custom vs Bots, then Co-op vs AI before coming into a PVP game.

I understand you're really eager to try a new champ against actual players, but studying the champ's movement and builds is also good.

As long as it's not ranked who cares, blind pick is just to try new stuff out or have fun, hate when people get mad during blind pick. I always tell them "play ranked if you want a serious game" there's no consequences to losing so stop being mad

I don't even see the reason to flame in draft either under the same circumstances so long as it's normal mode.

But then again, ideally there shouldn't be any flame in any mode, but I can tolerate/understand it a little more in ranked.

This is why I don't play blind anymore, I only play rank, the only time I play normal is with friends.
