Jihn has been in every ranked game I've played today.

Stopped banning him because the other team always picks him and loses

Straley4 votes

Gotta ban him cause you might be on that team that picks him.

My exact thought. I wouldn't even bother banning, at least for jhinother week or two when people start to learn him.

that is also the reason why teambuilder takes 50 years to find a match, because everyone wants to play that champ.

A Liberal32 votes

Well see, teambuilder would only take 50 years if you wanted to play Jhin or ADC. If you went, say, Janna support, you would find a match quickly. Instead, you now have to play for literally 3 hours (3-4 games) to play him once, were before you could have waited 5 minutes and gotten into a match as Jhin.

I agree. Even if it took me an hour to get into a match, I'd rather know for a fact I'm getting the champ I want. And I know the risks of choosing a new champ. It will take a while. I may get kicked. That's the price I pay, but not at all the price I would pay for "dodging" or "watching/playing against" a Jhin. Well, we still have bots. :,(

So....

-teambuilder would take just as long to play a popular champion like Jhin, but

-teambuilder doesn't take as long to play less popular roles, so

-teambuilder doesn't take as long to play a popular champion like Jhin...

wha?

Westonbirt5 votes

No, teambuilder does take longer. But it ensures you get what you want, even if it takes half an hour. Out of 3 games, you might reasonably get your secondary once, get it banned and then get it chosen ahead of you by either team.

For once I agree. I was on the anti team builder train but I didn't realize how useful it is when you want to practice a spe ific champ

LOL.

What did you think we did with it? Moreover, why were you against it?

It takes ages to load and to a degree promotes only playing one champ and role. With that being said I didn't see any reason to get rid of it. I mostly just used it to play a champ I recently got.

Most people I know used it to learn a champ, a position, or both. I don't understand where you get the idea that everyone is going into TB to play the same champ all day every day. That doesn't even sound fun.

I'm too quick for you :)

Of the 5 Blind Pick lobbies I've been in I've gotten Jhin 4 times, typing my preferred role first. In contrast, Team Builder would have had me waiting several extra minutes to get a game together, reducing in less games played.

Some people, including me and probably the OP, get really laggy and end up showing up in the lobby later. Hopefully this will be fixed in the new client, whenever it comes out, because I want to be able to instalock.

Exactly this. Which is weird since my internet is super fine and I get like 20 ping so I don't get why it takes 3s+ to show up.

Also, for those people that are saying teambuilder takes forever, dynamic doesn't? At least with teambuilder, you could make a premade of 2-3 people and get guaranteed your champ and only have to wait like 10m for a supp or something. With dynamic, I literally timed it and it was half an hour before we got into a game with a jhin. Triple the time of team builder. So no, team builder doesn' t take less time if you are duo or trio. Even if you're duo or trio in dynamic, its still a gamble where half the time, you lose it.

As for blind, I shouldn't have to have 0 ping and the processor the size of everest just so I can get in lobby an extra 3s to autolock my fav champ, which, is also bad anyways.

I guess it has to do with the client itself. My pc might not be the best, but I can load stuff like Borderlands 2, Dark Souls, AoEII HD and other games without any delay or weird waiting times. The LoL client just takes years for every single step with my pc's workload only going up a small bit. I know people with really good pc's who instaload everything that has to do with LoL and I know people with just as good pc's where it still takes years compared to alot more "challenging" games that load in a few seconds. Once in the loading screen they load the game in like 5seconds, but the steps prior to that take way longer than they ever should. The client is just weird as hell.

yeah, I don't think consistency was ever riot's strong point...

Well maybe it was, I only joined in season 4 but currently, its def not lol.

Just be happy you've never experienced the early client, during beta and most of Season 1 the client was insanely buggy. Seriously, be happy you've never experienced that!

This is actually the time when I love having a pbe account because nobody is playing him on the pbe because he already hit live.

Another bad thing is ever since his release, I haven't gotten primary bot once so far. It always goes to my secondary no matter what I pick. Even mid.

MetalGearTeemu2 votes

He's a Xerath with a better kit. If you've played Xerath you're ready for ranked.

Ariel the Cruel8 votes

Xerath has land mines!?

Drake Xi Onyx1 votes

It's just Xerath's slow (W): it has the exact same effect if you cast it directly on the champ you're aiming at AND stays on the ground waiting for someone to step into it after cast if you don't. i.e: A better version of the same spell that you can't 'miss' - it always waits for something to actually be hit by it (although can be destroyed a la Teemo 'shrooms should you not hit on cast).

Lumen Sage1 votes

You do realize that the mine does not apply any damage until it detonates and I have yet to see a champ who could not walk straight through the blast zone before detonation unless they got CC'ed in some way beyond the slow?

MetalGearTeemu2 votes

if only had had some skill that combined the mechanics of Xerath Q/E when he autos something then casts it, or when they step on the mine itself, which helpfully slows to make the said skill easier to hit.

oh wait!

VesperNadal2 votes

Bots isn't a bad option. Just memorize where Jhin falls on your selection screen and place your finger there. That's how I always got to locking in Kindred.

Zedex2 votes

Would have had a 25 minute Team Builder wait anyways considering whenever a new champ was released it was always like that.

Stars Shaper3 votes

I wouldn't mind the wait. Being forced to play with a character you don't want or get the dodge penalty is far worse.

Blodjägare2 votes

Those who bans new champions lose all my respect for them. Ranked? Okay, normal draft where you are supposed to try out new things? Common... I just want to play the new champ.
