Play whomever you wanna play, I'm not gonna tell you to be a meta slave, but for the love of all that's holy some of ya'll might be reading ability descriptions and how to guides while you wait for minions...
Bring your A game to ranked, not the latest fad you watched a "10,000 damage ult?!?!" video on youtube about. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

HalcyonDweller2 votesI agree with the OP. People who say "First time ___ btw" are the worst.
JustMonika131 votesI first timed Morg in ranked.
Won that game.
Zhugan1 votesGoing all the way back to Season 2 several of my standout performances on champions were the first time I played them.
I still have happy dreams about the first time I played J4 (shortly after his release ages ago), and went 14/4/16 in a ranked game and carried my team to victory.
Now, I don't really play ranked anymore (too toxic for my blood), but I don't see how that would be any less true now than it was then.
xelaker1 votesOh, well since you have done well with some first time stuff I guess everything I said was wrong. Pack it up people! This is guy did well with a firstie!
ViciousSummoner1 votesRanked play? You mean Casual Queue?
Jokes aside that's literally what 90% of people that play ranked treat it as.
