I Cant play *insert lane here*

AgeOfTheMage··3 votes·690 views

This annoys me so much, whether its mid, support adc, etc. If i get a lane i don't like(which is adc) I'll still try unless a teammate wants adc. People need to spread out into other lanes cause Most of the time i saw lanes with them, but then they're like: "but i can't do that lane either! i can only insert lane here"

The only role I can't do is jg, idky I try to play jg but I'm really bad at it and ironically whenever I get filled 9/10 I get jg

AgeOfTheMage1 votes

odd, usually fill = support(not that I don't mind)

MatthewRT21 votes

i'm a support main so when i get filled i dunno what to expect

All the lanes are pretty similar just with different champions, but Jungle's an entirely different beast. I completely understand people who have a hard time with Jungle.

I can't play Jungle because I always feel that I'm in the wrong place.

for some i guess some lanes are more fun to them, but People need to branch out more

Like other replies, I can't jungle. And the problem is toxic league community isn't conducive to LEARNING. Basically if you're playing a game in a role you suck at (ANY game, even normals) and you suck you will get berated to the point that you just don't want to do it. And learning jungle in Ranked is a recipe for disaster, may as well just dodge because you WILL lose, especially in the current jg focused meta.

Good that you try, but you could just say, "hey can I have [any other] lane? I'm not a good adc.", and maybe you get a lane you're better at and don't have to be dead weight for the next 30 minutes. It's just basic team communication skills - nothing to be annoyed at.

yeah, sometimes people get denied trading lanes and feed. but its just annoying to have people say that they cannot do it, that and most of the time i'll be the one trading with them since no one else will.

To be fair, if someone gets ADC or something and their straight up tell you "Hey, I'm not good at this role, can I swap?" and they're forced to play it and feed, that's out of their hands at that point. That's completely the team's fault for not being able to pick up the slack. The team was informed that they had a weak ADC and didn't bother to trade with him, so now it's the team's responsibility to deal with them forcing a player into a role they're not comfortable with.

if they aren't good with it then i'll gladly trade them for a role, if they just don't want it.. ehhhhh, sometimes i'll trade.

I think it's just that most people don't have a meta champion they're comfortable with in all roles. My biggest boon is top lane and while I have champs that are good top lane, I don't play anything meta well. Maybe some Ekko, Vlad, Ryze or Gnar, but that's about it.

true, that happens, i'm a terrible adc and i dont have many adc's

I can play everything But support. Its not that I'm not WILLING buy a sightstone, or support, but I am just terrible I restraining myself. I guess as an ADC main I'm a bit of a glory hog. Every time I play support I always manage to go way too aggressive and end up taking farm, taking kills, etc. I'm not used to having no damage.

AgeOfTheMage1 votes

yeah, after maining a lane you're in that mentality and i understand that, I tend to play super aggressive as support

Honestly, I agree to a point. If I'm playing ranked and I get mid (my worst lane) then 9/10 times I will lose lane and the game and screw my team over. It's not fair to the team, it's not fair to me, and it's just not fun.

But, in normals then yes, I do my best and try to learn that one lane I'm horrible at. I got a lot better than I used to be. I won as Azir vs his hard counter, I dominated as Karma (20+ kills less than 4 deaths), and I'm working on getting there.

Point is, it's ok in some games not others. I can understand people not wanting a certain lane and I'm willing to switch with them if they tell me why they don't want it. As a supp main I'll often take supp if someone asks to switch, but if they're an ass and say supp sucks I won't switch. But if they're like "I'm horrible at it" I'll happily switch and go on to dominate lol

ADC is the only lane I really can't do and that is for one reason and one reason only: squishiness.

Every other role I can pick a relatively beefy Champion into.

I just can't stand playing a Champion that either one-shots the enemy, or gets one-shot themselves.

It is not my jam.

AgeOfTheMage1 votes

yeah, champs like those are just unfun, i play for fun, not to win.

I can't play ADC though. That's not me not liking the lane, its that I rarely play it, and I rarely, if ever, do well in it.

AgeOfTheMage1 votes

yeah same

Because two tricking two lanes with two champions in each is the best way to win games.

No but seriously, when I play ADC or supp, I'm not gonna do great unless I get carried by my other laner, and I play mid it's just for fun or I wanna play some Riven mid. Although if I got autofilled, I'm probably gonna play Morgana or some other relatively safe laner.
