"So what it's only preseason".

Why is this the answer for all these players that want to screw around in ranked right now? Like picking a champ they never played or not really caring as to how they play. Sure it is the preseason and yes our ranks will be erased but our MMR wont be so a lot of people are busy building it up to help with placements next season right? Not every one is of course. I know players that pick a champ they never played is nothing new in ranked but I'm tired of people just blaming it on "preseason". Besides don't even get me started on picking a first time champ in ranked.

Of course this comes from my last game I had played with a Xin Shao who apparently was first time jungle Xin. I asked why and he said "Calm down it's preseason" as if I wasn't calm. But I tried to express exactly what I wrote here and he just said "Don't worry" and proceeded to go 2/12.

It may be preseason but that's not an excuse to do stupid things in ranked. Anyone else dealing with this?
