Just won two games with no tanks

SnugglePuggle94·Feb 4, 2017·5 votes·1,303 views

Moral of the story: you can win even if your team comp looks like it will be a loss.

It's all about the teamwork. Look at my match history.

1st game, my team- (me) against .

Think their team was oppressive and tanky? So did I. But we had the better teamwork.

Lee ganked often and got fed fearly
Key early game point was Ziggs roaming bot to help us a lot and pick up stragglers
With teamwork and focusing the ones who were being difficult ( got a quadra for instance), and Cass who was strong, we over came them.

Second game, my team- (me) versus .

Cait and I won bot lane
Kha got fed (most early game kills he stole from kat though)
Riven got behind early but came on strong late and really helped
Their team started to rage and troll, from what a couple were saying so that gave us more of an advantage
We saved our nexus multiple times by feverishly fighting for every second we had.
Last team fight, Malphite missed his ult plus me and my shield and Locket shield covered the team, we were able to kill them all and win.

So even if you don't get a tanky strong team comp, doesn't mean it's an insta loss. If you have great teammates who work with you and don't flame, you can win! Keep up the fight and don't let others get to you!

Edit: Why the downvotes? I'm trying to help lift others spirits and let them know they can still win! This isn't a bad post :(

Bronze/low silver tends to be that way

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20173 votes

Not all the time, and I'm not bronze :p

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20175 votes

You are low silver and last season bronze :P

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20174 votes

So? Why are you using the rank card? That's not nice.

I've improved and am still improving, and thought I could help lift others spirits if they are having a bad time by giving them a positive outlook that they can win even with a bad team comp.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20175 votes

I am "pulling the rank card" because if you were a masters/challenger player (maybe even diamond) and your team had no tank you would get DESTROYED. Bronze and low silver ranks TEND (remember when I said tend in the first comment) to play stupidly. So if you don't have a tank it really does not matter. MOST OF THE TIME

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20173 votes

But you didn't have to use it. And not all play stupidly. Still, I'm speaking out to all the other lower elo players on here and you downvoting it is not nice. Also, stop signing onto your smurfs to upvote your own comments and downvote mine to oblivion. Not cool at all.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20174 votes

LOL! I love it when people say I make "smurfs" because they have a stupid post that gets downvoted...

And yes compared to high gold+ they play BAD. Check what you type on the boards before you say stupid garbage like "stop smurfing"

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20173 votes

I never said you made any. I said stop signing into YOUR smurfs, meaning ones you already have because all my comments are getting downvoted within seconds of yours getting upvoted so it seems like you are doing it yourself with smurfs.

My post is not stupid, and no not all are bad. Some others are just better than them.

And reported. My post isn't garbage, I didn't say any garbage and I never said "stop smurfing."

Learn to read.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20174 votes

LOL report me if you want bud!

I would not waste my time even if I DID have smurfs on YOUR post.

You really are trying too hard to prove a point that does not exist here buddy.

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20173 votes

Nope I am not, and I have reported you.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20174 votes

Yeah you really are, and I could NOT care less :)

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20172 votes

Nope, I'm not.

I'm done with you and your rude attacks. Good bye.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20173 votes

"Rude attacks"

Assumes someone is smurfing because nobody likes their dumb comments

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20172 votes

That wasn't a rude attack. All of your comments are.

Reported.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20173 votes

In what way did I "attack" you? Did my words hurt your childish heart?

zacktootallFeb 4, 20176 votes

you have wasted a lot of time on this post even tho you claim that you wouldn't

i thought that i was a negative poster yikes you make me look like a cute little kitten.......

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20173 votes

Yeah I find that pretty interesting...this guy ACCUSES ME OF SMURFING XD

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20172 votes

Dude there's a difference.....he called you out for USING your smurfs to downvote his comments. Actual SMURFING is in the game. Maybe you should learn that

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20173 votes

I don't think you understand....

I said he accuses me of smurfing (meaning on the boards)

Where is the proof? YOU my friend should learn

zacktootallFeb 4, 20173 votes

well the only person who knows the fact that you have smurfs or not would be you so i don't blame him for not trusting a stranger.

also you did pull the low blow first talking about ranked and all so fair is fair

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20172 votes

I understand quite well. You apparently don't. And the proof is in what he thought he saw- within seconds he was getting downvoted constantly, which means he thinks you keep signing into other accounts to do it. He called you out on it, but didn't attack you like you have by saying he's a child and that he needs to grow up.

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20172 votes

^^

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20172 votes

By the time the downvotes came in there was over 50 views on the post

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20172 votes

I think you misread what I was trying to say in the first comment.

I was saying that tanks matter more in HIGH ELO than they do in bronze/low silver

Hope that clears it up for you.

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20173 votes

Also, you're wrong. Last season I was silver too. Look up your information from a correct site please before spitting incorrect stuff out.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20174 votes

Pretty ironic that the guy that just accused me of "smurfing" is telling me to not state incorrect facts.

(By the way the post is at -4 so that means i would have to have 5 smurfs...yeah no)

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20174 votes

I never said any incorrect facts.

Anyhow, even if others are downvoting, that's being mean. My post isn't a bad one. It's here to help others.

Mean? Maybe you don't belong on the internet friend because there is a LOT worse than this. Some people might ACTUALLY USE SMURFS! Maybe you need to grow up just a tad bit before you start up the internet or League again.

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20172 votes

Wow. What a person you are. Telling me to grow up, how childish of you. I know others use smurfs good fucking Lord. You don't belong on the internet at all if you bash others to make yourself feel better.

You aren't worth talking to anymore.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20173 votes

UH OH YOU SAID "fucking" REPORTED

That shows your childish mentality bud. When you get butthurt over a VIRTUAL NUMBER that shows how many VOTES YOU HAVE you need to grow up.

I'm not one of his smurfs. I downvoted you, too.

If you had to save your nexus multiple times, then odds are that your game should have been a loss and the enemy team played it badly. You're saying they were trolling and raging, so they probably didn't work together.

That's not a "you don't need tanks to win" argument. That's a "you shouldn't surrender in low elo because the other team is probably bad and possibly raging" argument.

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20171 votes

Wow. For the record, we were winning that game but had some bad fights. It is still a no tank argument because we fucking fought them to win.

And no you should not have downvoted. This is a helpful post.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20171 votes

Told you I was not smurfing :D

Quoting xXRaichopXx, you've basically won matches in Bronze/Silver matches. Typically speaking, anything works at low elo, so all these "we don't need tank" talk won't work at the upper elo since tanks are one of the prime positions/role to fill.

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20172 votes

That's why he said he's catering to the lower elo players- trying to help them. He just didn't like how the other guy is being rude to him.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20172 votes

Well, "Miss Mikasa"

How was I rude by stating that in bronze and low silver tanks don't matter as much as they do in high elo?

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20173 votes

If you are any kind of anime fan you would recognize my name.

Anyhow, you were rude because you started out by saying he was in lower elo, and basically attacking him for it. You said lower elo players tend to be bad, and he could have taken it to mean that you were calling him bad too. Anyhow he was trying to say that in lower elo you can still win without tanks, even if they don't matter.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20171 votes

I watched the entire first season of Attack On Titan :)

I am also silver so i'm not sure what hes getting all upset about...

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20171 votes

Maybe he is just easily hurt by others words, I don't know. But honestly some of it was pretty rude :/

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20171 votes

Maybe he should have read my original post closer? I am not sure but i'm kinda tired of typing with random people I might never see again xP

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20172 votes

Well yeah who knows what could have happened if he had. We don't know what goes on in everyone's head.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20171 votes

Well don't stay here, you have titans to kill bud!

BeatzBoyFTWFeb 4, 20172 votes

He did not stated that at all in the main thread before responding this to Raichuchop. If he'd mentioned earlier, there wouldn't be this fiasco going on.

SnugglePuggle94Feb 4, 20172 votes

I thought more people would read my post and comment more positively, and see I was kinda stating it in the background. Oh well.

xXRaichopXxFeb 4, 20171 votes

Maybe...

Honestly I see a lot of fight on the forums so I am used to it xP

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was what I said at the beginning but he got upset when I said it...

MissMikasaFeb 4, 20172 votes

Because you were using the rank card against him. BeatzBoy didn't.

ErockandrollFeb 4, 20173 votes

My biggest problem with the lower ELO is, they don't even know why we need a tank. I mean, it's nice to have someone who doesn't insta give in 2 seconds, but the team really doesn't know, what that tank is suppose to do for the team comp, probably because no one plays the comp, they only thing of their own champions strengths.

I could pick a Juggernaut, and the team would be happy, but still screw up, because I might not have enough CC to actually peel. Or if I engage as a tank, and get no follow up, because the enemy was able to dive the back line.

That's my problem with Tanks is I can't really Engage and peel at the same time. If you need both in your comp, you may want multiple tanks. (If you leave it to the last pick support to be the teams sole tank, go sit in the corner, and think about why your top lane riven (or what ever) pick was worth not picking a tank)
