PSA: Don't complain about a champ who's kit you don't know.

Arakadia·Jul 28, 2016·28 votes·1,309 views

If you don't even know their kit you shouldn't judge it.

Yesterday I was playing Ryze. I ulted after their Caitlyn who was real low and got collapsed upon. VelKoz didn't leave the radius in time and also got pulled along. He blamed me for his death. I told him he coulda walked out of the radius. He said "I didn't have enough time, you double tapped R." Ryze can't double tap R in case you didn't know.

Another: A post on the boards complaining about Yasuo's survibility. They said his E made him untargetable.

A bunch of people said Kled would be broken, because he could heal 50% of his total hp in 6 hits to bring Skaarl back. It's 6 hits against champions. And he heals back only a portion of %of Skaarls max health.

All his zaps zap you, three zaps and you get super zapped and can't move. His ultimate is a bug zapper that zaps people inside 3 times. It has a total 5/10/15 zaps at level 6/11/16.

I'm pretty sure a large majority of even high elo players have no fucking clue how the math of his passive really works out.

I don't know why anyone would disagree with you, you're absolutely right. I guess ignorant kids just want to stay ignorant.

All the posts I've seen about Yasuo say that he can spam his wind wall so projectiles are basically useless.

looks at 26/24/22/20/18 second cool down

Surrounds Yasou and pelt him from all sides with projectiles.

Windwall this!

zlumpyJul 28, 20162 votes

And then somehow he does >.>

I hate when I walk through the wall to chase cast and it still somehow blocks my shot when I'm on the other side casting AWAY from it. So many screwed up Leona E casts.

TyrekGoldenspearJul 28, 20161 votes

Yasuo: Face the Wind! Windwalls I can see you're from the ocean. Becuase when my fresh wind flows through you and comes back to me, it burns my eyes with how salty it is.

Meep ManJul 29, 20161 votes

It's mainly the Windwall plus his Passive plus his E dodging that just makes anything that isn't targeted against him just an ass to hit.

Squidward DabJul 28, 20164 votes

I once had someone tell me that Katarina deals %Missing health damage on her ult and another telling me that she goes INVULNERABLE while CHANNELING her ult like what??¿¿??¿?¿?

Vanic998Jul 28, 20163 votes

I'm not saying that yasuo is op (I think he's balanced) but when people say that yasuo's e makes him Untargetable, they don't really mean it. They say it anyway because It's almost as good as Untargetable if he's spamming his dash on a minion wave against a skill shot reliant champion. It's more like an exaggeration rather than ignorance.

ArakadiaJul 28, 20163 votes

DoT, skillshots, targeted abilities, and auto's can still hit him.

Vanic998Jul 28, 20163 votes

I said it feels almost that way if he dashes a lot against skill shot reliant champions.

RabblerouserJul 28, 20163 votes

Just be cautious of the frame freeze Ryze's ult causes to players. I'm trying to put the message out about this since a lot of the new "Ryze mains" try to be douches about it. I often can't get out of his ult because the damn freeze PREVENTS ME from doing so.

Ryze's ult actually takes some coordination and skill to pull off correctly. As such, soloQ Ryze? With an ult that requires coordination? HA! That's funny. You're better off trying to pull off sick ult plays with friends who you can better coordinate with.

Fox ByteJul 28, 20163 votes

Is that what happens?

I was playing Syndra with a Ryze in aram the other day and I kept getting tugged along in his ult. I'd try to move out of it, but I'd never seem to be able to get out of it even when I was on the very edge of it. It was like it tugged me along anyway, and then my screen would get whipped back and forth almost it was really strange.

Someone once said that Vlad's Sanguine Pool did %max health damage to enemies.

This, coupled with people who never employ standing behind your fucking minions to dodge Tides of Blood casts make up a good amount of my salt.

AckelopeJul 29, 20161 votes

I feel like half the problem with any champion who has been semi-recently changed having a high or low winrate is just a bunch of people who jump into games without reading patch notes or giving any effort to understand things, then blaming it on aforementioned updated champion being 'overpowered'...

Photos of GhostsJul 28, 20162 votes

Yesterday I had a Jax be extremely surprised at how much Vlad healed. I am SOOO certain he didn't dodge the empowered Q once.

Over InnsmouthJul 28, 20162 votes

Do you mean dodge as in Jax's E? Cause it doesnt dodge single-target spells at all.

Of course if you mean dodge as in move out of the remarkably short range, then yes, I'm with you.

CubíxJul 28, 20162 votes

I've been harassed as kha'zix because I'd jump in and kill someone then flash away. They'd say "wow you flashed? why not just jump after you got a kill?"

In case no one knows, the jump resets on kha'zix only if he has evolved his E, if he doesn't have the wings yet he can't jump in kill jump out

GrReaper96Jul 28, 20162 votes

I once had a teammates said he died because my Azir wall blocked him.....

I always have people complain about Galio when they try to tower dive me and it's annoying.

DeathBurstJul 28, 20162 votes

he could heal 50% of his total hp in 6 hits to bring Skaarl back. It's a lot more then 6 hits.

It's not 50% of his total HP, but it is 6 hits, or even less if you use your pistol properly in the middle. You gain 15 courage every time you hit a champion, and you need 100 to get Skaarl back.

That being said, I agree with the general idea of your post.

MordepoolJul 28, 20161 votes

Shaco called my Morde OP. Morde with the Worst: Atkspeed, Movement Speed, and Health at 18 in the game. Shit Mordes barely a champion Now

zlumpyJul 28, 20161 votes

You probably killed him with a ghost dragon :P

MordepoolJul 28, 20161 votes

Very rarely can a Morde solo Dragon. So that Cant be it. His Complaint was about 3rd Q

zlumpyJul 29, 20161 votes

I was thinking those rare times when you take drag as a team and they forget just how friggen strong the dragon ghost actually is.

MordepoolJul 29, 20161 votes

As a team? What game are you playing?

TyrekGoldenspearJul 28, 20161 votes

Someone once told me to build full CDR as Azir becuase it would "Help me attack faster."

They also wondered why I didn't take down a turret in ten seconds and kept telling me to shred it with my soldiers.

zlumpyJul 28, 20161 votes

I love the people that rage at Taric for not ulting. Turns out predicting an enemies play and using a heavily telegraphed 2.5second delay invuln is pretty tough to use. Especially when allies don't take advantage of the breathing room it gives or position so badly that it just wouldn't matter.

Plus they all seem to think it has like a 45second cooldown early game. Which is weird because you can definitely see when my ult is up or not just by looking at the global indicator.

TyrekGoldenspearJul 28, 20161 votes

Their expectations are completely OUTRAGEOUS.

Truely truely outrageous.

EndlessSorcererJul 28, 20161 votes

But how else can I complain about Lux's OP stun?

TyrekGoldenspearJul 28, 20161 votes

Well you wouldn't complain if you know it's a root. Not a stun.

A root just means you can't move. You can still unload all your spells in her face.

I do it all the time as Brand. Run right up to her and E. In the time it takes her root to get to me my stun (Q) already hit and my W is brewing beneath her while she can't do a thing.

I usually blow her squishy self up with my passive explosion.

EndlessSorcererJul 28, 20162 votes

I get the distinct feeling that you completely missed the joke...

TyrekGoldenspearJul 28, 20162 votes

Oh Derp. Sorry lol. It came from my early days of maining Lux and constantly telling my salty opponents that it isn't a stun.

"It's a root. And it only lasts a second. You want to talk OP? Look at Morgana!"

I don't play her as much anymore so I don't have to deal with it lol.

EndlessSorcererJul 28, 20161 votes

Funnily enough, I made the joke for the exact same reason.

And I prepare to explain their mistake.

Then I realize its a joke. xD

Meep ManJul 29, 20161 votes

Worst case of this happening to me was when I was playing Yorick (who?) and my team mate kept telling me to stop reviving him from the dead, that I was just double feeding the enemy team with their dead body that was in a bad place to begin with. So, I explained to them that it didn't give the enemy gold. Ok, good right? Nope. Now that he knew what was going on, he began to make better use of the ultimate, which led to him living in the Yorick ultimate state for the full duration. Now he keeps telling me to stop reactivating the ability? Excuse me? I asked what he was talking about and he began to tell me how I was reactivating the ability to end the effect. I begin to wonder who this guy is while I explain to him that effect has a limited duration and wasn't permanent revival. Now that we got that sorted out, it's the end? Yep... it was a lie, no. It wasn't over. Now he kept telling me to stop making ghouls at the wrong times and that they were dying in 5 seconds, getting nothing done. He said 5 seconds, the exact duration of Yorick's ghouls. I was tired of explaining at the end of that match.
