Pick intent, why Im feeding ur lane.

Weasel Kensei··2 votes·683 views

So when my champ gets banned, and it was you who did it... I hope you can share in my frustration when I roam to your lane as AP Ashe and I "accidentally" die, not to mention the mess Il make of my lane goofing off.

Getting tired of people sticking their phone up there ass, then sticking their head up their ass to check their phone, and then mindlessly banning my champ when I had them in pick intent.

The number of times Brand or another one of my pick intent champs has been banned by my own team has exceeded my number of fingers, and Im not going to bother starting to count on toes.

Because people are so damn poor, they cant pay attention, I guess we need a warning for someone banning that they are banning a teammates pick intent champ. I shouldnt have to type out dont bad x, because if they cant look at pick intent, they wont notice that either.

Am I actually going to troll cause of zero attention span twits banning my champ? Probably not, but then Im not everyone. I have seen people feed cause their champ was banned. So think of this as a kind of PSA, pay a little attention. If you get to ban, just do a 2 second glance at what you team has picked. It isnt hard and if you cant do it, then your just dumb af.

Pick intent doesn't entitle you to that champion at all. Nor does it entitle you to act like a loser when your champ is banned. Get over it. If I see people like you in my games who whine about pick intent I purposely ban their intended champion.

Alright, aside from the last line being pretty damn dickish (I mean, you're wasting a perfectly good ban just to piss someone off, and a teammate no less. What the fuck?), I agree with you.

If an ally sees your pick intent and says ; "sorry, i dont want to deal with it if the enemy gets them" then you have no reason to be angry - they said it politely.

But when an ally doesnt say anything and just randomly bans your intended, then thats a reportable action because it is; A) Not communicating with the team B) Griefing C) Unsportsmanlike behavior

Banning an intended pick is not reportable behaviour.

Rioters have said as such in the past.

Without saying anything to your team, yes it is. By that kind of logic not respecting your lane placement is also not reportable.

A player can ban any champion at any time for any reason. If a player does not want a specific champion in the game (on my team or the enemy team), then that is reason enough to ban them.

Respecting lane placement is an entirely different matter as that is determined by the match-making system. Riot has decided that stealing a lane you were not assigned without your ally's agreement is punishable behaviour.

What a way to compare apples and oranges.

If something is ban worthy and you intended it as last pick I'm still banning it, it's not worth the risk of the enemy taking it.

Also, if you pick intent something FOTM or something questionable, I will look up your stats and ban that if you have bad performance.

Oh by the way victim blaming the person who gets trolled is pretty low.

If you pick intent any of the popular bans or picks then be prepared for me and many others to not give a fuck. We are talking about zed, ekko, malz and yes brand. You might want to play him but I'm not taking the chance that the enemy might get him first.

Pick intent doesn't mean you deserve shit. Don't waste a ban to just piss off the people you are trying to win with.

If you're last pick, or second to last pick, and are playing stuff like the reworked mages, Zed, Ekko, Kindred, etc. you'd better be prepared for everyone to not care that you have Brand as pick intent. I'd rather ban it than let the enemy team get their hands on it.

Well, just stop showing what you intend to pick. Sometimes it will be banned just because of that.

Zero people posting here acknowledge that people ban without paying attention to what pick intents are shown. Just excuses for whay they ban and dont have to look.

This was more about people not paying attention, not having a reason and going through with a ban anyway. Just plain not even paying attention.

Selective argument syndrome.
