I put so much effort into the game. I put my money, time, emotion into this game. And seriously every ranked game is like this. no matter how good I do. no matter how hard I try to climb rank. I get things like ashe support to make games impossible. sure ill have my bad games, but never do I troll in ranked. This game is seriously making me reconsider playing this game any longer. Like wtf is the point of putting effort into shit that someone retarded is just gonna come along and ruin. That is 46 minutes of my life i can never get back. I chose to play a game I want to love and support. But honestly I dont. This isnt some flame post. This is genuine sadness toward all the people who like me, want to enjoy a game, play with good people who equally give their all.

This game definitely made me have no desire to play another match tonight, and sadly it was my first of the night. I got on feelin good. wanted to play some ranked, get some LP. but that was crushed. and to be honest, this is becoming more common. Ill log on, play 1 or 2 matches. Get a toxic troll, or a diamond 1 smurf who reks my entire team. League just doesnt seem worth the time anymore.

If you ask me, this is a side effect of modern gaming being turned into something far too serious. Toxicity and smurfs aside, here in Japan, we can usually enjoy any kind of setup in a game unless you literally can't succeed with it because we don't tend to consider games to be anything more than games. (Unless you're talking about a video game otaku, obviously.)

I think in places like America and Korea, there's a tendency to take games really seriously that's making things seem less fun. It's not that I'm saying your way of thinking is wrong. More that your way of thinking is colored by a gaming climate I believe is wrong. I understand why people are so driven to win that they abide by a strict meta, I simply think the game would be more fun for everyone if that mentality weren't so prevalent.

I remember back when I first found out about League, when people would experiment to no end with new champions and builds. Every game was fun back then. Now days you basically know what to expect every game, and the one guy who changes things a little gets pushed out. No one tries to win those games anymore, so it's a loss from the beginning.

Then you look at Velkoz with Athenes. Vayne feeding out the ass, you probably not using your teleport properly to press R on Yi to swing the game in your favor.

But you know.

Support Ashe is apparently the only problem. LOL. If anything she was the best/second best player on your team. But you wouldn't know that, because you're where you belong.

what exactly is the problem with that match? obviously i wasn't in it but from the screenshot the post game lobby was people joking around.

other than that do you mean the Yi is a smurf? where is the basis for this? you guys have CC, you could blow him up. money wise (except yi) it really looked pretty even.

Um . . . lol?

Alright.

"garens ult does execute damage..... so it wont just kill yi unless hes lost a decent amount of health. dumbass."

^ Is true damage on Villain. Master Yi is squishy, and with villain on him, you basically delete him. You can also R for around 1300-1500 true damage. If Yi reaches half life, he is dead with your R button. Which isn't even hard to do.

Just in case you try to pull the "durr durr you don't know anything at all about Garen." This should basically show that half your post is null and void.

" katarina can be stopped by all that sure. if we focus only her. and then she can just zhonya. look at their team. Yi, Panth, and Katarina had insane damage. very easy for any of them to burst our adc, and squisy support ASHE."

Only takes one good CC. Honestly, Naut can just press R on her the second she runs up and she dies lol. Or you can Q her which makes it impossible to zhonya. So. If she's not dead, it's because of you and Naut. Not really her.

"not to mention kat has a GA incase she dies."

you mean the passive she didn't get until much later in the game lol? Also has a 5 min cd. Woo.

"matter of kat getting her resets, taric ulting, "

Taric's ult has a cast time.You can realistically kill the majority of them before it even pops.

"it seriously doesnt sound like you understand the game at all, and are making false claims to make yourself sound smart."

This account actually has plat 1 mmr. It decayed into gold because I stopped playing on it. Feel free to check the match history. Regardless, I have two platinum accounts, one diamond account, a gold account, and an unranked account. That Garen game was done in upper gold btw :O. So yeah, I think I know what I'm talking about.

I also just got done coaching someone for two hours and she went from a silver baddy to gold 4 tonight alone.

Conclusion: Not only are you rekt. But you can't even acknowledge that you got rekt. So, I foresee you remaining in silver for . . . honestly, your entire LoL career at this point.

Actually, the stuff of your Ashe Support seems well thought. A funny fact to underline is that The Black Cleaver/Runaan's Hurricane was a very interesting (but too expensive for a support) combo. I still think that the new Talisman of Ascension would have been better for an Ashe support. And she should have taken Locket of Iron Solari. Her pick didn't lose you the game.
