Team can't take mid tower because we need to get 2 turrets in 15 seconds for mission.

Can we stop with these unnecessary premade trolling missions?

When it's in premade everything is fine even tolling. So why not bring that "bad" mission 100 AD Lux but in 5 men prem. It won't be troll. This here is the main thing that bothers me - "if it's 5 prem it's not trolling". No. It's still trolling and it makes the game harder. Riot...

It's also inconsistent because 5 man premades that agreed to go afk for like 10 minutes and come back to fight from a deficit have been reported by the enemy team and punished by Riot for "ruining the competitive quality of the match"

Yeah... these missions belong in games vs AI and for players who are practicing or learning the game. They are sooooooooo bad to have in a competitive environment. RIOT should use missions to improve the new player experience.

Can you imagine playing basketball and someone says, "Sorry, I can't pass to you. I have to get X number of 3-point shots for my mission." Yeah. It's like that. It's sooooo bad to have in a competitive environment. Put this mission stuff in practice/fun modes.

You don't have to play ranked for missions...

What did they invite you without telling you the plan? Or did you not like how trying to complete the mission turned out?

Durzaka4 votes

You know, its much easier to just take the first towers and snowball out of control, and just take 2 second tier towers within 15 seconds instead, right?

Faceroll Tactics3 votes

Or the two nexus towers right next to each other

Edit: never mind.

If you are with 4 other friends it really doesn't matter what you do. Now if this were a mission that could be done with a pick up group? Ya, It would encourage MAD trolling!

That "EVERYONE NEEDS summoner 12 " quest for example... So many threats and fights before games even began... THAT one was a problem..

DuskDaUmbreon3 votes

Erm. That quest was also premade only.

? You do the mission when it makes sense to. You don't prep towers and then get stomped bc you refuse to take them. Lol. Nothing troll about this mission. It promotes smart play and good rotations. It's more on par with buying 5 control wards than it is everyone take tp. Nothing troll here. Only encouraging your team to play smart. Lol.

Quepha13 votes

If it was supposed to happen organically through the game's pacing then it wouldn't require a premade. This is a mission meant to make players troll in-game.

Flawless Fetus2 votes

I was very surprised it required a premade. I didn't see that until after multiple solo queue games of meeting the requirement I realized that I'd still yet to complete it. How is asking your team to take down multiple towers quickly 'asking to troll'? I guess people are trolling at worlds. [slayer-jinx-wink]

Quepha7 votes

Because to time it correctly as a team it means you are intentionally waiting to take down a tower until a teammate can do the same.

If Riot meant for this to happen organically as part of the pacing of the game, it wouldn't require a premade.

Flawless Fetus2 votes

Right. But it happens in like 25% of my solo games. It happens "organically" all the fucking tune. Lol. That's why it's so weird. It's akin to "take two barons in a game as a 5 man pre-made". No reason that should be pre-made. No reason this should be. Lol.

Mission designed to troll teammates... in a 5 person pre made?

It's not trolling your teammates. It's trolling the game/meta/strategy. Forcing a 5 man premade to be all melee, or all TP, is trolling. Forcing premades to abandon strategy (map rotation from one turret to the next) in order to set them up to fall within a certain window of each other, is trolling.

V The Support V1 votes

Apologies, I am not understanding what you are saying.

Who is "forcing" you to do the mission?

How is destroying turrets ever "abandoning meta/strategy"?

You can only "Troll" your teammates.

Lastly, this mission is very easy to accomplish.

Having Ziggs + Tristana on your team works well.

If not that, just grab summoner 12 and the Rift Herald.

It actually discourages rotations, because those take longer than 15 seconds. It encourages setting up a tower beforehand, and then splitting your potential 4 or 5-man push into 2 groups instead so you can get both turrets down in time (what my team did after we had a ridiculous lead, and it still required one group to wait for the other). Even with a rift herald, taking 2 turrets in the same lane is most likely going to exceed the 15-second limit.

Seems you were equally triggered by his post since you even bothered to comment.

IMO some of these worlds mission were asking us to troll and honestly brutal, but others like the control ward mission are welcome any time :) even tho they are a bit too easy to complete

Do people not read?

You can only do the mission in a 5-man premade.

Where did I say it wasn't a premade? Our team can't take the turret because we need to get 2 in 15 seconds and we had one prepped already.

wtf are you even thinking?

PB4UAME5 votes

It specifies those don't count.

Cowseed1 votes

Hmmm... I see. But even it that is the case you really shouldn't be holding outer turrets. The chances of actually pulling it off increase the further in you are into their base. You'd have to snowballl and splitpush I suppose.

ForFoxSakes1 votes

So then take mid turret and get double turret kill elsewhere

Solidair31 votes

I mean. I feel like THAT mission specifically is for when you're crushing the enemy so badly that you can just take two inhib turrets at the sameish time

The Yetii Rider1 votes

Not really. You get herald, summon her after you kill mid laner, then blow through two turrets with just two champs, herald and a wave. I did it my first try.
