PSA: @ALL RANKED PEOPLE: USE PICK INTENT

Nothing irritates me more then people who don't use pick intent. It's there to strategize, to use synergy. To work around comps. You're not forcing yourself to play said champion, you're just letting your team know who you're thinking on going. That way you don't end up with an accidental all AD comp or all AP comp. Or if 3 of you are planning on going teemo. It might not do anything, or it'll decide who wins or loses.

Use it, it takes one click. It helps the whole team plan.

Too bad people troll like no tomorrow with pick intent, so people never use it anymore.

Though at least pick something close to what you're going to play...

Whenever I use pick intent they just ban my champion.

So I've been putting champions that I don't want to play, like Urgot.

Urgot has been banned in nearly 20% of my games now.

funny I only put my pick intent as urgot and I've gotten whole teams to put their pick intent as Urgot.

I did the same and everyone started chanting "one of us" until all 5 picked Urgot

It's useful, I think it's good for the support or jungler to hover a couple champs, so that his allies can see a bit of his champion pool.

Ive never once gone into a game being like, imma play this one. I pick my champion when it comes time to pick thats it. I either get to counter pick who i belive to be the enemy laner, or i pick something i dont think i can get counter with. Pick intent is useless imo, but people who use it or like it can keep doin what they want. So no, no pick intent here. Or ill just pick the first thing i see every time to keep people like you quiet
