Players, what mains do you respect the most or least?

For me, I hate the year 2077 nuclear waste Battle Bunny Riven Mains, if they're ahead; they flame the enemy team for being shit, and if they're behind, they flame their team. Non-toxic Crayon Redeemed Riven Mains are pretty cool doe.

I respect Aatrox mains the most though, must take a lot of dedication playing a controllable cannon minion with a sword.

I respect Aatrox mains the most though, must take a lot of dedication playing a controllable cannon minion with a sword.

I shouldn't have laughed at that, but it was a good one. I hope Riot does something with Aatrox soon. As for mains, I think it's fine for people to main whoever they enjoy playing most (even the Teemo mains out there). I just can't stand the meta whores or the one trick ponies in the higher elos who think they're good but are actually pretty bad.

What do you mean, exactly? Like, I pick what's strong in the meta (although my champ pool is large, so I counterpick if I can and feel it's my best option), so I guess I'm a meta whore by your definition?

But how is that such a bad thing? I took the time to learn every support for this express purpose, and additionally I expect my opponents to pick what they think is going to give them the best chance to win the game, so why should I not do that? And how does thinking like this mean that I'm actually bad (assuming that applies to meta whores, it's a little unclear).

I think what he meant were people who pick FotM champions. And that rant about OTPs is spot on. Yesterday i've played with a guy who mains Akali but when i picked her and didn't want to trade with him, he decided to troll our entire team that game.

Back in season 4 I had a 70% winrate on akali. I was bad at everyone else: thatms how much akali I played. (And then I proceeded to quit the game for close to two years). You picking akali and not giving me her at that time was tantamount to intentionally throwing the game. There's something about playing her over and over again that makes it basically impossible to adapt to playing any other champion.

Elikain3 votes

Gotta love how you shift the blame to me. He did not ask for Akali, he did not intend pick Akali. He did not communicate he wanted Akali at all. He just started his bs attitude once i already picked and locked her in. I did not intentionally pick her just to screw with him, i intended to play Akali that game. The whole point was that he though he owns Akali as a champion and that he alone has the right to play her and no one else.

The guy didn't lose his lane because i didn't give him Akali. He wasn't on his lane at all because he was making sure i lost mine. He followed me throughout the entire game in my jungle and taken CS just so that i lose as well. That was very deserved in your book and justified, right? I don't really care if your win rate is 200%, if you didn't communicate to your team what you wanted to play, i see no reason why my gameplay should suffer for your benefit. You're the one not paying attention, don't blame it on someone else.

You do not lay claim to champions just because you main them. I main Morgana too but i don't do this when she is picked by someone else. I either make an arrangement to trade or just play something else. In worst case scenarios, i might dodge a queue, if i particularly feel like playing Morgana and no one wants to indulge me.

Looking at his match history, he plays other champions mid and for that game, he obviously wanted to troll for no reason. Looking at his match history, this wasn't the first game he trolled in this manner and out of 20 recent games, he has at least 4 where he trolled. That's an astounding 20%. Doesn't really matter what his train of though was, i and everyone in the enemy team reported him.

I also just want to mention that was the same attitude with one Rengar main in my game, where he'd done the same shit to us and we reported him. Riot banned him. Except no one took his Rengar but he deliberately threw the game once our jungler Nidalee, did not give him Rift Herald buff. Because he was also a selfish jackass who think everything in the game has his name on it.

for me its not so much what main a person plays, its more so the attitude behind it. some of that seems to go hand and hand (see riven mains lol) but its more so the elitist attitudes that people have by playing a damage champ like a Fizz Katarina MasterYi Khazix Riven Rengar Yasuo Zed ok i get it you went 10-6-4 as a kat cleaning up kills after i as Nautilus Leona Malphite Maokai Morgana Sona Braum DrMundo Amumu Alistar dove in tanked all their damage and cool downs , made them burn their summoners and are about 2/3rds hp that you get to hide and dash in and kill what i started and died for as you abilities reset when you werent there to start the fight and you get your quadra or penta kill and spamming your mastery icon with bad manners thinking you are a god at this game. at least the Ashe Caitlyn Draven Ezreal Jinx Jhin MissFortune Lucian Sivir Tristana Varus Vayne had to right click and kite.

CaptnJakSparrow5 votes

If it's that easy for Kat to roffle, why aren't you playing her?

oSEXYPLATYPUSo8 votes

im not saying its easy, every champ has a skill set needed to be good at that champ. you missed my point. my point is champs like that dont do that on their own, for those who main those type of champs to have the elitist attitude that they are the best player on the team because they are able to clean up kills and get quadra's and penta kills. a kat isnt gonna go in 1 vs 5 and ace a team unless she is super fed and ahead by at least 3 lvls.

people need to stop thinking this game is a solo game, its not its a team game. it takes a team to lose and a team to win. kat needs her team do set up her penta kills and her team needs her to advantage of the situation and provide the penta kills. ying and yang. but dont act like you are god himself (FAKER) and do it all on your own. its teamwork. and even GOD (FAKER) knows that.

CaptnJakSparrow3 votes

Team work doesn't even exist until plat 2, and even then it's questionable.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo17 votes

right cuz a jungler ganking mid and the mid using his cc on the enemy to allow the jungler to successfully gank and both working to kill the enemy isnt teamwork?

leashing for a jungler isnt team work?

a support who wards lane and provides heals and protection to adc isnt teamwork?

grouping to secure a drake isnt team work?

pushing as 5 with a baron buff down mid to end game isnt teamwork?

damn this must be a 1 vs 1 game. ive been playing wrong all long.

CaptnJakSparrow1 votes

I literally don't ever see any of that in your mmr ever.

It's usually you silver baddies running down mid crying while I 1v5 carry, and then you guys say "LOL WE WON GET GUD BADDIES."

oSEXYPLATYPUSo10 votes

gotta play rank to be ranked, right? so to down talk me and all of us "silver baddies" is the elitist attitude i was referring to. i choose not to play rank and you can look me up and see that i dont, and if you look at last season where i played a total of 14 rank games (10 placement) and 4 others just to see if i could get any end of season rewards. and to say you dont see any teamwork at my mmr ? what is my mmr if im unranked? and to say team work dont exist where i would consider myself a support main would be talking out of your ass. as you sir have just insulted not only me and the majority of league.

its ok. i get it youre an assclown. but while you are gold 1 (which is still considerd low elo) you are just good enough to realize your not that good. for good play see diamond 2 and higher.

CaptnJakSparrow1 votes

I never play on this account. You'd know just by looking at the last match played lol. It literally ELO decayed from plat 1.

As for your mmr. It's bronze/very low silver because that's what you struggle against in your normal games. For example: You lost to a bronze 5 Sejuani. The fact a player that low on the mmr chain is even in your game should tell you something.

Also, you can't really call something your main if you have no actual idea how to properly play the role. If you did, you wouldn't have very very low normal game mmr.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo9 votes

if you are referring to the game where i was a top and only tank and only cc on team i had 2nd highest kda on team where my carries fed all game then yes. i went 1-0 in lane vs ap kennnen and never lost lane i also had 2nd highest cs on team where my yasou went 0-6-8 and draven went 5-11-4 with 3 item 3031 because the passives stack. but if you wanna pick that one game out of the others i have where i went 1-2-15 as sona, or 2-6-20 as leona or 1-2-6 as naut support or 0-0-8 naut support or 4-4-7 naut support 2-3-20 bard support 4-2-5 morg support, 6-3-6 malph top , 4-9-16 maokai , 1-2-4 malph 9--5-15 cait, 7-6-9 nausus. we all have bad and good games. just as my lissandra id admit im not good at her, learning her. but to say im bad at a role when i know how to play a role with zero evidence is wrong. take bard for example i have a 16-11 win rate on bard. one of the worst supports in game. and yes im struggling with a higher then 50% win rate over all and a 65% win rate in my last 20.

man you got me

[zombie-brand-clap]

CaptnJakSparrow3 votes

You have mediocre scores, and mediocre win rates. Against. Bronze. Players. So yes, either you blatantly don't understand your role, or you yourself have no idea what you are doing, or a mixture of the two.

If I jump on a smurf and climb out of bronze with ap vayne. Am I a ap vayne main? Or is bronze just that silly of a place? Pick one.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo10 votes

so 2-3-20 is medicore? or 9-5-15? 1-2-15? explain?

CaptnJakSparrow1 votes

The average support in diamond has an avg of 1 death per 25 assists. In bronze you pretty much shouldn't even die at all if you have a single semblance of an idea what you're doing. In fact as Nautilus you should pretty much be going legendary every game on top of having assists.

So yes. Your kda is pretty Blegh.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo9 votes

not true but ok . i have seen many diamond and higher supports not go 1 death per 25 asst. kda's arent that high in diamond. do you know who wingsofdeath is ? look up support stats from his games where he is diamond 1 and was challenger tier just as an example: he had a support sona on his team sona is broken right? she went 1-6-5 that same game the enemy support morgana went 4-3-19 both players being diamond 1. another game he had a lux support 2-6-12 rank diamond 1 enemy support morgana 4-3-14 diamond 2

i just showed two games of 4 different supports in diamond 2 or higher playing with master/challenger mmr not one of them have the insane kda you speak of. http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Wingsofdeathx

my last two games as sona i have a 4-3-19 with a 7.67 kda and a 1-2-15 for a 8.00 kda

now back to nautilus top has a win rate of 29.98% http://na.op.gg/champion/nautilus/statistics/top

to say i should be legendary as a nautilus top laner is kinda stupid considering his less then 30% win rate which is 31st among top laners out of 54.

I swear to god singed mains are the only players I feel comfortable with when they are 0/6 coming out of laning phase and then buying crazy shit like ohmwrecker and thornmail and 2 dark seals because somehow we're gonna win the game and that singed will have done the most damage

Critmaster Garen12 votes

i kinda dislike shaco and teemo mains.

not neccessarily because theyre bad mannered or rude. but theyre playing these champions literally just to be an anoying asshole. their whole enjoyment of playing this games comes entirely from trolling and fucking with you.

1000angrybees10 votes

I respect Karthus mains because i just don't see how that champ is fun. I feel like it takes a shitload of dedication to master a champ that's literally like

'QQQQQQQQQwQQQQQeQQQQQQdies SLAM THAT ULT BUTTON' oh, and one last q before i die'

Also i don't care who you are. If you play Blitzcrank youre not a good person

Irelia Bot9 votes

It really depends on what is meta.

Irelia mains actually got a fair amount of respect in season 3 when she was not doing well but once Irelia got strong in mid season 4 people started bitching about is.

Theiki Kayle9 votes

Respect: Draven mains, because they always seem to be chill. Plus, their champ is ACTUALLY hard.

Disrespect: Most assassin mains (except Diana, who isn't an assassin tbh, but her mains are always cool) and Sona mains (I've always found her mains to be toxic).

What kind of draven mains do you find? Most of the ones I've encountered try their fucking hardest to be tyler1

Spoofghoul8 votes

I respect Sion mains the most

What do i need to say, he is just an awesome champion

he also requires gameknowledge, ability timing both when to use yours and when the enemies is up. positioning & skill and he has many quirks like 90 degree turning on ult or using it to leap over walls stopping dashes with Q when adn where to die etc etc.

There is alot more to him then build tank and do stuff

there are many champions whom rely solely on rightclicking or point and click and otherwise low counterplay low interaction mechanics and abilities Then there are champions with excessive mobility which makes life easy let be honest here. And then theres also abunch of champions who pres qwer and someone dies which also isnt really all that difficult especially when untargetability and point and click is involved.

CrazedPorcupine7 votes

I have a lot of respect for people who play supports in general.

Playing a role that very few people play, and being dedicated enough to play that role 80% of the time is admirable. They get absolute shit if they leave their ADC and the ADC starts to feed. They get flamed for when they get ganked, even if they warded properly, pinged retreat and still ended up dying. They put up with the most absolute shit the community can throw at them, and they do it anyways.

StainlessTweedle7 votes

It's not about the mains really. I hate toxic people. If a guy playing Riven is toxic he won't become an angel next game when he plays Ziggs.

Suprising enough, I respect Shaco mains the most. While they do screw with my head, i can respect a man/woman who put that much time learning how to fuck with everyone with maximum efficiency.

As for disrespect, the typical Yasuo Riven Vayne mains.

Squidward Dab5 votes

I respect Nami mains because they usually are really chill in game and know how to engage and disengage from anyone.

I have no respect for Yasuo mains because they usually boss u around and think it's still so difficult to team fight when he has malphite and Alistar on his team. Sorry but it becomes 10X easier with those three on the same team

Samuel4445 votes

Gotta say, if you main a support, I appreciate you. Since I enjoy playing ADC on occasion I have to say that a good support makes the laning infinitely easier. A good Lulu will shield you and help keep you alive, a good Thresh can engage and pull you out of trouble, not to mention all the others.

I can't say that I really disrespect any mains too much, I mean I really dislike facing a Yasuo or Riven but I have played them, and sucked at them, so I can appreciate that they are pretty skill based at least. Fizz though if it's the champion I just dislike the most.

Kanzaki Ranko5 votes

i don't judge people on the champions they play; i've seen plenty of kind yasuo mains and plenty of toxic lulu/sona/janna players

Pikmints4 votes

I can't stand Udyr mains because they're the kind of person that will spam emotes every chance they get, flash their mastery every time a skirmish ends, and they'll tank multiple turret shots just to BM.

Funnily enough I was going to say Aatrox mains too. They turn one of League's joke champions into someone that actually is able to be a functioning member of the team.

Serika Zero4 votes

I respect Diana mains the most because there's only a few of us out there. I have the least respect for FOTM mains tho. By this I mean people that are "maining" a champion only when strong, the moving to the next "main". So basically, most LCS players (if not all)

Least respect towards people who main Blitzcrank because they are usually the people who spam emotes all lane phase and comment on every kill their team gets. Most respect towards Bard mains because they are usually really good and they know how to use their ult effectively plus they seem to always win lane

Blitz only does 1 thing. What else are you going to do between cooldowns; bake a pizza?
