FTFY

That's the issue of wanting to play the best role in the game, I always put ADC and Mid second since that's the best way to get ADC all the games, I dont remember the last time that I got my second role.

^ This. I actually do this as well. Because if I play ADC/SUPPORT(my actual secondary role) I'm probably gonna get support 9 times out of 10; I hate playing support in ranked though. .-. Watching other people ADC tilts me.

Mid is the best role?

No , it's just full of Zed Yasuo Ahri Katarina Lux Mains Which are extremely popular Mid has always been like that except season 7 and early season 8

But mid being, well, in the middle of the map, means the midlaner can roam very effectively and have an impact on every other position. Only jungle is better in that regard, but jungle in its current state has the disadvantage of pretty much requiring you to pick an early game champion, so you fall off later on in the game, while mid champions remain relevant throughout all of it. Maybe it's not outright the best role, but it certainly comes close.

ye , saying so

Ayzev1 votes

Nah, what you said was that the role was popular because it has popular champions rather than because it's a strong role. Not saying that those champions' popularity isn't a factor, but it isn't the only factor.

Soooo... What's your point? Every lane has cancer champ mains. That has nothing to do with the inherent impact each role has.

Again, what's your point by bringing champions up? I could do the same argument by saying Top is not the best role because it's filled with Aatrox Irelia etc, jg LeeSin JarvanIV, bot Ezreal Kaisa and support Thresh Morgana etc. They have nothing to do with a role being good or not, what makes the role impactful is the way the role works, Mid can roam to any lane easily and helps the jungler, Jungle is in charge of the global pressure and objectives. That's why those 2 roles are the best in the game, not because of the champions that are played there.

All those champions aren't popular as Lux or Zed or Yasuo My point doesn't change , except Lee , he is at the same level of popularity as them , but only 1 jungler

Here's the thing, you have no point, all you're doing is complaining about champions being popular in a discussion about what roles are strong. also all of the champions I mentioned have the same if not higher pick rate than what you mentioned. so there's also that :)

You can do the research yourself, I'm basing my info off op.gg, where ezreal has a pick rate in bot lane of 50%, Aatrox and Irelia have 14% and 11% Pick rate in the top lane, to name a few. Take a look for yourself and you'll see. Also for the record, Lux has a 10% pick rate as support and 3% in the mid lane, so even that you got wrong. I don't need to prove anything to you as you have the right to have your opinion, as factually wrong and biased as it may be, so yeah.

that's ranked stats in plat elo + which are 10% of player base and only ranked solo duo , which doesn't even cover 5% of matches in the game Popularity is about how popular the champion is in all game modes.

"Mid can roam to any lane easily and helps the jungler, Jungle is in charge of the global pressure and objectives. " THIS THIS THIS. How people do not understand this, I'll never know. The games where I get even tiny assists from mid are the easiest games I ever play. Conversely the games where mid is a potato are the absolute worst.

Whether you think the champs you mentioned are cancer or not (I can tell your an ahri main from username lol), its undeniable that they are all generally disliked and hated by the community

"Not all the mentioned champions are cancer" is what you said

I was just pointing out the majority of the community finds Yasuo Ahri Lux Zed Katarina to be cancerous

Surprisingly, I put ADC/JG here and always get ADC.

Like 1 out of the last 15 games gave me jungle. Still a popular role, it seems

As a support main the only real times I don't get support and get mid instead is when there's an ADC/Support duo

Definitely works 99.99% of the time

I generally pick Mid/Top and quite commonly get mid lane. When I am auto-filled it is to horrible JG though.

Well I queue Mid|Sup yet I rarely get Sup.

RavenMagus3 votes

I put Mid/Support and the last time I got support was about 40 games ago.

The thigh guy2 votes

Most popular role by almost 2x causes that.

MessyStuff2 votes

Well that depends on what your secondary is. If it's jg/supp then of course. If you want to get mid more, just put top second, it's the second most wanted role.

Kenneky2 votes

It's funny that I put mid as primary role ans support second and still get autofilled jungle more than support. I hate being autofilled jungle, I literally have no problem with any other role but jungle.

I get mid pretty consitently. For reference I go Mid then ADC

Yes because only adc is probably more played than. If i go mid/adc i basically never get adc maybe once in 10-15 games.

Mid/anything else is only anything else lmao.

Trist mid opop1 votes

Pick supp secondary. They made it so u can only get supp 35% of the time. I always get mid now (if i queue for it as primary)

Sathelight1 votes

They did? When? That's some great news! I lost hope to ever play mid again.

Meanwhile I watched Rekkles queing supp/adc which resulted in him playing support 8/10 games then getting support main the other two. But it was 2 months ago and he queued supp as primary so it's a different story.

I see posts like this all the time. It must be worse in the EU servers or something.

Personally I run Mid/Fill or Mid/Supp quite often on my main account and get mid a solid 80%+

On this account I run Mid/Top and get mid a solid 70%+.

Interesting how varied the results are across multiple players. I honestly can't remember the last time I didn't get mid on my main account. Other than the occasional autofill after a dodge or something.

Then again, if I get Jungle/either botlane role I usually just say "Any chance Mid/top would be willing to swap with me?" And I almost always end up in the role I wanted to get.

I have no EUW accounts though.

This one's a new side account, I used to have a ranked account I haven't touched in a lot of time, used to be gold and got autofilled mid more often than I would like there. Put in adc/sup or adc/jungle.

Come back when you hit 11 games without your main role ( 2 in which you were auto filled)
