What do you think when you see a specific champion selected in champion select?

For example:

When i see an instalocked "Me jungle" or i generally think: "Ok, i guess i'll play with no jungle assistance for the next 20 mins and the guy probably will start to flame the whole team because they lost their lanes"

When i see an pick im really pleasant and think the guy is a team spirit kind of guy/girl and wants us to pick somekind of wombo combo kind of champs.

When i see that a bot premade picks / or i tend to think : "Damn it's just normals, but i guess these guys are in it to win!"

When is picked im like: "K either this guy is really good and we can expect a 20th minute win or this guy will suck really bad, feed 5 kills in 10 minutes and gonna flame the rest of the team for not letting him get fed."

Heimerdinger I'm going to be useless for 20 min. This lane is lost if I picked a champ who can't wave-clear and my jungle won't gank. Nasus This is going to suck. I don't think I can shut him down. TahmKench Oh great, this fat bastard. LeeSin We're going to lose hard. (If Lee is on my team or on the other) Khazix He's going to get executed by his own camps and be useless for the next 10 min. Shaco Oh shit! Why did it have to be Shaco? Varus He's going to lose lane hard. Oh no. He's going to get stupidly fed.

Riven I should gank her a few times to make her rage at her team and/or ragequit. Yasuo He's going to be aggressive and overextended. I'll the take the free kill(s) and set him behind. Katarina Well, I'd better hold onto one CC at all times since no one else on my team will.

This is not a "Jungler never ganks thread" it's a first impressions thread you clearly did not get the purpose of this thread in the first place.

its not a first impresson thread, its a "being full of prejudice when i see specific champions in champselect"-thread and since i dont really care what prejudice you have about specific champions but i see this "OMG JUNGLER FARMS 20 MINUTES"-shit all the time, i felt like only replying to that explicitly.

for example, i mostly dodge when i have a kassadin or yasuo on my team because of how useless these champions are and because of how stupid people must be to play these champions IN MY EYES. im biased there myself and i just dodge the games but i dont make threads about it and complain about an entire role doing their job.

It's not prejudice exactly, but you know people tend to remember the worst from the selected champions they specifically did not like. Those that i mentioned tend to bring really bad memories in my mind. Kassadin pick? if he give a kill til 6 it's basically 4v5. It's an ugly way of thinking but that is the purpose of this thread.

thats exactly what prejudice is. but all right, lets have a prejudice thread.

It is weird I do see some Champs played those players TEND to have similar qualities. certain jungle champs are more likely to troll a bit more than others like the ones you mentioned even Warwick often! Like Yi is notorious of going solo vs 5. I not really a jungle player so I don't know if they have reason to do so (some never leave the jung even late game).

That being said some champs I do love to see like rammus they always seem like decent players. Lux and leona are also two champs I love to see, again often very friendly team players.

Perhaps in a weird way (might get negative comments of this) but it really depends on role, say assassin mid really needs kills and they tend to get angry when they don't someone like akali or katarina I always here 'omg ks You took my quadra etc' whereas a sup tends to go with the flow bit more so I do love all the sup champs.

Riven : I'm either going to be silent or toxic.

It's a generalization obviously.

Nidalee This is going to sound terrible of me, but any time I see her I instantly think "God damned pussy!"

It's two fold really. I think that cause my experience with nidalees hasn't exactly been pleasant (chuck spears, split push, do nothing to contribute to team fights, runs away. RUNS AWAY ALL THE TIME.) And because she becomes a cat.

It's true from my experience, Nidalees often change into cougar form the moment things go south.
