I'd say single handedly carrying the game is worthy of an S whatever you are playing.

And it's not just kill stealing either, I can show the timestamps of the deaths.

no, its not worthy of an S or you'd have an S.

Maybe you wouldn't be singlehandedly carrying if they had a support who'd ward lol

How is winning the game solely because you played the way they did not S worthy? They couldnt ward because theyd get caught by me. I did the best thing a player can do, winning a game by carrying so hard and that isn't S worthy to you?

OR maybe you only won because you were being cheesy as shit and better players would have taken advantage of this, shut you down, and won the game which it looks like they had at least 6 chances to do.

getting a bounty and dying feeds even harder btw

link to stats btw I wanna see your ward count

Also no, they never had a chance to shut me down. Over half of those deaths were from 'teamfights' where I was the one focused and my team would whipe. Other lanes did poorly until me and jinx started to roam.

soooo if they teamfight you and focus they can get your bounty?

but nevermind that

your entire team warded 4 times collectively? Holy shit that's terrible

Those stats are wrong, I looked on op.gg at the game and it's actually quite different. Their Blitz warded the fewest times out of anyone on his team (tied with Sion, and all of Blitz's appear to be pink wards), compared to the enemy support with 25. That's a pretty big red flag right there.

@Hebiki: your grade is not simply weighted on your combat performance, but how well you did in all areas of the game. For supports, warding is a huge part of that, and you didn't ward once with your trinket throughout the entire game. That's quite disturbing from a support, to say the least. Also, to a thing you said earlier, it doesn't really matter if you were KSing or not because for supports kills and assists are weighted the same, although it's good that you weren't KSing.

I didn't ward with a trinket, because I was the only one with red trinket. There's a reason I took red instead of yellow.

See, that's the problem.

You started out with a red trinket.

What wards are you actually going to find and sweep before your could buy a sightstone (which, by the way, you didn't buy, nor did any members of your team). Pretty much none. I can't really think of a situation where it'd be worth it to start with a red trinket and then never get a warding item. A large part of the reason supports get sightstone is so that they can get red trinket and still participate in warding. All the pink wards in the world aren't going to do you much good when you can only have one active at a time per player.

But more to the point, that's why you didn't get an S. You didn't ward worth crap, and that's why you didn't get a higher grade.
