Daily reminder that being carried is an actual skill.

It's actually true: some people are incapable of being carried.

Nearly every game has a Mumen Rider.

He knows he can't win, but he has to solo that fed Marksmen anyway.

Being a Support Main, in nearly every team/party/roleplaying game I've every played, I think I've had this skill mastered, for some time now.

It's a skill I wish everyone had. When someone on your team is fed while you're doing bad the best possible thing for you to do is farm up, play safe, and let them carry you to victory. If all goes well you'll still be useful when it reaches late game. Last game I got my ass handed to me in lane but after dying twice I just farmed at tower and waited for my fed Evelynn to gank. Easy win for us because the enemy laner was not able to get fed and carry, and because i could CS better I even managed to catch up on gold and then win lane after 2 ganks from my Eve.

Play safe guys, farm up. You don't need to be the hero.

This perfectly explains a lot of my response to a particular complaint I had in a ranked a few days back, even if I couldn't be arsed to voice it.

"Mid useless." "How do you even win any games?" "Worse than our Support Teemo" "Can't do anything" "Anivia's roamed 10 times already" Our Vi Jungle

"Its because I don't feed. I went even in lane. Just because our Support Teemo managed to make our bot lose lane so hard that despite the support janna roaming mid to 3 man gank me with the jungler, the bot still goes 0-3 before lvl 6. Creating such a disastrous dysfunction in power that despite Anivia getting her self pincered at our blue I'm basically 1v1ing her.

I win my games because my worst is barely-worse-than-even, and that's when Jungle is hyper pressuring my lane. I don't go 0-4 by 15 minutes like every other top laner. I don't tilt and dive 1v5 into the enemy team in some bloodlust attempt to kill, like you. Do not blame me for us losing this game when we're 18 minutes in, I haven't died once, and y'all've died a collective 15+ times."

Also, FYI, none of those Vi statements are true, she's just doing the thing most tilters do where they get mad and try to negatively cons true every possible thing based on the weakest evidence (Ex: Sees you miss a single skillshot in the early game "Omg, trash, haven't seen you land a single skillshot").

Couldn't agree more, there are people who literally refuse to get carried. I am talking about the classic Riven """"""""""""""main"""""""""" toplane that goes 0/7 in 10 minutes and starts calling FF and reports everywhere. Meanwhile our jungler won mid/bot and destroyed enemy jungler. Meanwhile bot took down a second tier turret. Meanwhile mid oneshots on sight.

But hey i lost my lane so i guess the game is lost too right?

Shout out to the newly lvl 30 garen who waited patiently under his tower and rushed a spirit visage while swain was dicking him while i snowballed all other lanes.

Should we also throw in "not take kills", too?

Because to a lot of people it's very hard to pull off, and then they begin to wonder why their carries "do no damage".

There is NO issue with going " My top laner is abs dominating im just gna farm make damn SURE i dont feed and just push" You dont have to be the hero. Let sht be what it is.

You'd be surprised how many people can't do this.

10000% true.

Some people cannot play safe regardless. But you can guess the age group easily when this happens.

am i the only one getting mad when i get a free win when i do not deserve it cuz i played bad or some other shiet .. i prefer to win knowing that im doing good not just winning cuz i got lucky to be playing with better players than me

is it just me or do supports always bitch the most out of everyone nearly all the time? I want to say it's salty autofill players like me that do this (I personally don't) but the support player bitching everyone out has been a recurring theme since before autofill at least in my experience.

A lot of players also just don't understand how to build and adapt their playstyle to the current game's events.

I've seen so many ADCs for example that continue to die instantly in fights to a fed enemy assassin, their team already does a lot of damage (and fights are close by the end), yet their next buy for their 3rd item is a Zeal. At this point literally all you need to do is buy an armor item like Deadman's plate, and it's GG

Just because there are a lot of idiots who can't do it, that doesn't mean it's a skill. It just means there are lots of idiots who can't do it.

Everybody wants to be the 1v5 solo hypercarry to rise through the ranks on their own willpower. Sometimes this wins them games and they carry. A lot of times they don't get fed or even start losing lane, and just have absolutely zero trust in their team, so they continually throw themselves at the enemy team in a futile attempt to get fed, causing their team to lose the game.

Basically either they win the game for their team, or they lose the game for their team, but they refuse to get carried. It's so aggravating. Not to stereotype but it's mostly Yasuos and Vaynes from my experience, which just adds even more hate to them and makes me groan when my team hovers them.
