Why Do People Not Dodge?

Your team: Picks all AD

Enemy Team: Rammus, Malphite, Alistar, Twitch, Orianna

Timer counts down to zero, you realize nobody is dodging, youre forced to dodge.

You have a 10% change of winning that game, why bother playing it? "Because people play this game for fun". Fun is winning, not playing against 600 armor champions that take no damage making it impossible to win.

Few games ago we got a Yasuo and Orianna bot lane, Soraka Jungler and nobody dodged. Rip LP.

Fun is winning

Basically you're a spoiled kid.

How is he spoiled? Because he was raised to succeed and not fail or to do instead of try? I imagine he learned alot of life lessons being raised that way. The spoiled ones are the ones who get shit handed to them with little to no effort and anyone involved in their little world have to deal with their spoiled asses. Sounds to me like he makes an effort and has to listen to the true spoiled kids who say things like you did.

You don't succeed without failing and you're sure as hell not succeeding by quitting. If you never fail in those games, you never learn anything-- just how to perform as long as the game is totally in your favour. Failing that isn't anything but 'fucking up,' so good job on avoiding fucking up. I guess.

Dodging is demanding four (nine, really) other people be beholden to your will or won't on playing the game. That seems pretty fucking rude to me; But you know what, you're right; they're the spoiled ones, and OP is the Dayman, a master of karate, and friendship.

For everyone.

If it was high elo, then id stay because people would know how to counter build against tanks. But even in plat you still find people that dont know when to build Grevious wounds or Black cleaver. They just build the same build every game instead of itemizing based off of enemy builds/comp.

That's a given and is pretty much common sense. Thing is though, todays generation quits before they even fail and get a pat on the back for trying which is BS and they learn nothing because they already received praise for trying and think that's good enough. It's most evident in real life and they bring that BS here and do the same damn things.

Spoiled? I rarely get to win, the one time I do get to win it feels good. A spoiled kid wouldnt even realize that winning is fun because all they do is win.

The most important life lesson you can ever learn from anything, across video games, career, health, love and loss-- everything.

The only consistent element in all of your failures is you.

Dodging is for the cowardly and weak.

Jayce Top1 votes

Even if it means the game is unfair or your team is trolling? If you have a soraka jungle you wouldnt want to dodge because its coward and weak of you?

SSmotzer1 votes

Funny you mention Soraka jungle, because she's my go to jungler in regular matches, and how is having a jungler that keeps every lane at full health bad for my team?

Sir Fuzzi1 votes

Yeah. I'll give Soraka a shot at being good JG because I'm asking Raka to trust that I'm not a total fuckup dipshit myself. I haven't asked them about it; we haven't theorycrafted about it; we haven't even spoken most likely. He could do Soraka top, okay, and I'd be fine. I stop being fine with shitheads who feed and AFK because their game is 'lost' or 'they're done :P' or shit like this. Straight up, fuck you: I'm not here for your amusement. Better you dodge than tilt in-game, sure, but why even play if you're just going to dodge comps you don't like? That's like people who try to switch lanes during a traffic jam. You did it, dipshit. Now you're going to magically escape the hundreds of backed-up cars in front of and behind you.

I don't have time to talk with Soraka, though. By my admission of joining and thus asserting I'm equal enough to play with them, I'll give them the same judgement. Even if proven otherwise, being a petulant piece of garbage about the way someone plays a game when they're not trolling sounds like a fantastic way to end up with your whole team flaming you, which might explain your aversion to being in-game. You seem like the kind who tells their teammates that they're fucking up a lot-- I've seen the kind in norms, they usually lose their lane (mid/top) and then blame bot or something.

Now then, dodging, and why it's selfish twat behavior.

The good news is you're removing all reasonable doubts about that and dodging a game instead of playing it, which is either your altruism knowing you'd just tilt or your idiocy for playing a game you despise actually playing. Both are amusing but for different reasons; the former because you're just another raindrop in the flood who picked AD, and the latter because you keep coming back like some sort of bouncy toy. (In fairness, a lot of us are probably as masochistic as the latter, the way League is going.) In this way, it's nice that you're not bringing attitude to play.

But brass tacks, now that I've gotten my roasting in. Dodging is never the right answer. Sorry. That's just how it works-- if everyone has to stay, everyone has to stay-- just because I don't like fighting Viktor, Kled or Azir, doesn't mean I'm going to fuck over nine other people. It's not like there isn't a losing team in every single game; should they all dodge the moment it looks like they could lose? Should they all AFK when they fall behind in overall KDA or lose an objective? The thing is, where do we stop? We let you kids start dodging and then what? Games at 15 minutes get remade because some people didn't want to see a lose screen? Do we abolish 'losing' altogether and just show one side a win screen and the other side just exits the game automatically? It's like those surrenders; I've turned around plenty of games just because I didn't want to throw in the towel on some weakass hackneyed push my enemies managed because we were spread out in jungle or something ridiculous. I've won plenty of games I've refused to surrender. So what then? Who was right, me or the one who wanted to surrender? Boards is always saying nobody ever surrenders. Well no shit; I win games I don't surrender.

There's just no accounting for attitude is the problem. The likelihood of that game isn't five players who want to formulate a plan, it's two player who want to formulate and the rest of the team is you. Sitting there, bitching up a storm about how people won't dodge the game for you. Shit, do you want cookies and tea with that, young master?

Well too fuckin' bad, kid, welcome to the real world. I threw it on the ground. Maaan.

You want the dodge so bad, do it yourself. Otherwise, shut the fuck up and just play like everyone else does. Nobody likes losing, but somebody has to do it if there's going to be a winner.

Why should we dodged if you will for us?

Jayce Top1 votes

I only dodge once a day so i lose 3 lp and only have to wait 6 minutes. Otherwise im stuck playing a game that is a 100% loss. But id rather play and lose than have to wait 30 minutes and lose 10 LP.
