Riot I got to ask

ForgottenLuck··2 votes·670 views

Why is Brand (Brand)allowed to be both a Mid Mage and a great Sup while other champs if you even try to play in other lanes are constantly threaten to be reported (ex: Soraka MID or Janna Top) I don't understand why you allow some champs to go to multiple lanes while others you keep as just as sup?

Easy, you are "theatened" to be reported. Those reports will mean nothing, and you can play who you want where you want. Carry on.

Hard to have fun in a game that I have an afk for thinking I am trolling while the rest of my team rages on me for choosing it, and heavens forbid I get a bad game as them and they call me as inting... It's not worth it most of the time

To each their own. You're more than welcome to go off and play single player games. There you have complete control of the situation. But hey, alternatives are just an idea to most, never something to act upon.

But what I am saying is that if this is the format that Riot games wants to take with champs like Raka and Janna (who though can be played in other roles are much weaker) why does riot allow some champions to get a free pass?

I would chalk it up to intended game design. It's their game so they can choose how they want to implement each champion.

Were you around when Soraka was viable mid/top lane with the old starcall? It was one of those instances where players realized that soraka was actually a abusive mage, could heal herself permanently, could give mana and more. It was unhealthy, and not what they envisioned as a healing support. You had fed sorakas running around getting pentas by just button smashing.

If you give someone like Soraka (because I talked above) the power to go in to other lanes and spar 1v1 with champions that are intended to be in those other lanes (mages/assassins/bruisers) while still leaving her utility across the map and in team fights that wouldn't create a healthy game. Imagine a soraka being able to duel a syndra, while at the same time providing massive heals, point click silence (snare given the chance) with continued health sustain. It would create once again another abusive champion.

Riot wants there to be champions for each role, so they design champions with that in mind. On top of that they design items for those specific roles to utilize to make them excel even more at their role.

Riot doesnt control your teammates. Riot keeps those champions as support because unlike brand mid soraka mid was cancer and janna mid was boring cancer. Were you here for soraka mid? I got the pleasure of that and trust me you would rather have your eyes scrapped out than have to face that even twice.

I can tell you that Brand sup is just as disgusting, but that's beside the point my question is why does RIOT allow this? If they can't balance the game completely, at least they should define the roles better.
