Game 1, support picks lee sin, tells everyone how he is going to "try" an attack speed build he has never tried before in a ranked game. I dodge, 5 minute ban.
game 2, I show a zed pick. My teammate bans my pick. I dodge, 30 minute ban.
Why do I get punished for other player's poor behavior? I don't want to take losses in ranked because I was paired with trolls and newbs in solo que. Why do I get punished? It's a crappy system!
Gigglingdeath1 votesTo be fair, I'll ban someones hover if their winrate in ranked is low. (Not saying yours is.) Some people also automatically ban a specific champ without really looking at their team hovers. You didn't have to dodge the second time, you could have played another champion. The first game I understand, the second one was to your discretion.
sphinxthelion71 votesI disagree this game is full of trolls who like to ruin people's experiences for some reason I will never understand. When I questioned him he said basically he did it on purpose soo.... I'm sick of being trolled in this game. Riot needs to start getting really strict on this stuff in ranked games. It ruins the competitiveness of the the sport and really makes me not want to play at all.
Gigglingdeath1 votesI mean, it's also end of season. This literally happens every year. Don't play ranked the last 3 weeks of the season. Trolls, boosters, smurfs all come out of the woodwork to either hinder the ones trying to climb or get the accounts they are on to a rank they don't deserve (or don't need). While I agree it sucks, this is also part of playing the game, knowing when to queue and when not to queue.
HalcyonDweller1 votesThis is why I never show my hover until after ban phase. No way for them to be trolling me if they never saw what I want to play until after ban phase.
If they ban it then its because they didn't want to play against it. If not then I'm free to play it. Problem solved.
Alex h87211 votesSadly this is about the worst time in the season to play, folks who have already gotten gold or whatever rank they are aiming for jump on smurfs and just troll. Yesterday i went up against a team w/ nasus adc and soraka jg (unbelievable that no one on their team dodged that game). I wish i had actual advice, but all i can say is it'll be better once the new season starts and everyone's rank is reset.
