High Noon Lucian quotes really reflect the quality of some skill-levels

"Don't take your time ending this! Never liked long fights." -A quote specifically given when Lucian's team is ahead

This one specifically represents one of my top complaints about everything below Gold rank, maybe even included considering the times I play with Gold or higher players. Whenever teams are ahead, they outright refuse to push the win which typically leads to the other team coming back and securing the victory. They either leave a free turret and even inhibitor to farm the jungle or run off split-push another lane, or end up chasing fleeing enemies who in no way could defend against the team pushing the objectives. It's frustrating, and no amount of Assist Me pings will change their minds. People need to learn early on that if you WANT to win, you PUSH the advantage. When you're ahead, you play like you're ahead, not like you're losing.

I'm not saying people who do this are specifically Good or Bad, just that they don't know how to win games. You don't win by wasting time, you win by taking objectives.

I've seen that, and man it's frustrating to look at. I wonder who has been telling people that splitting is the only way to win.

This... is why I’m leveling up this smurf account. Plat+ games are so fucking boring. Just stupid short snowball fests where you see the same 20 champions in every game and it’s generally reliably decided by 10 minutes.

I honestly believe the depths of bronze, where people still play whatever champions they want and the games drag on forever, may be the only way to enjoy this game anymore. If any of you bronzies want a boost out of bronze, once this account hits level 30 imma drop myself into bronze, win up to B1, and then drop again ad Infinitum until the game actually becomes fun again. You can even learn new champs and play troll shit like Sona mid in low elo it’s great.

I'd believe it. Still, it's a good sign if Riot address that people draw out games.

I usually goof arround like this in normals... cause well.. yeah, normals, thats why i also complain about early enemys surrenders in normals, however in a ranked i would just do everything i call ''Scummy'' or ''Tryharding'' in normals, under one of those things, finishing early.

Edit : (im only playing premade of 5 so pls don't come saying ''well stop ruining experience for normal game randoms'' k thx)

WELL STOP RUINING EXPERIENCE FOR NORMAL GAME RANDOMS

No but seriously, normals is fine as long as you're at least trying to play and win. But what I'm talking about is a common issue in Ranked, at least in the lower brackets.
