Bring back Vaynespotting.

xxxDogmanxxx··102 votes·7,509 views

I found this thread again, and felt a huge wave of nostalgia. We should seriously bring back this amazing sport! Credit to kingcobweb for the original post on Reddit.

Are you a support main? Do you get frustrated trying to support Vayne players? Are all your friends sick of hearing your sob stories of what your last solo queue Vayne did?

Well, turn that negativity into something positive! This is an introduction to the brand-new sport of Vaynespotting!

Here's how it works: when your Vayne does something extremely Vayne-esque (or "Vaynes out,") you get a certain number of points based on what happens.

The scoring works like this: points for action your Vayne did, multiplied by... the number of enemies they did it into, multiplied by... what they gave up to do it, multiplied by... what they said in chat about it afterward.

Every action, cost, and chat statement has a different multiplier value!

For example: say your Vayne flashes under their tower 1v3, dies without getting the kill, and blames your team's jungler. Let's score it!

FLASHING IN: 2x TOWER DIVE: 2x THREE ENEMIES: 3x JUNGLE BLAME: 2x ...for a total of 2x2x3x2= 24 points! NICE VAYNESPOT!


FAQ

Q. What chat statements get multipliers? A. Not every possible Vayne statement has been said, so some are undetermined! Here's a quick table with some examples:

"I'm done": 2x "Gg": 2x "Afk": 3x "Bg": 4x Any statement blaming the toplaner: 4x Any statement blaming the midlaner: 3x Any statement blaming the jungler: 2x Any statement blaming the support: 1x (no multiplicative value, as this is assumed) Any statement taking personal responsibility: 0x (your Vaynespot is now worth zero points! Oh no!)

Q. What if I'm supporting a Graves, and they Vayne out? Does that count if it wasn't technically a Vayne? A. YES! You've encountered a Transvayne. There's nothing wrong with that, and we as a community need to be accepting of players with different champion identities from us. First, determine whether they were truly Vayneing out. Did your Karthus walk into the middle of their team to instantly die in a chokepoint, so that he could ult and kill four of them? Not a Vaynespot! Did your Lucian dash into the middle of their team, flash toward a low-health enemy, die without killing them, then say "gg no peel?" Vayne spotted!

Q. What about the Vayne on the opposing team? Can I Vaynespot them? A. Absolutely not. Their Vayne is really good.

I just tried this out, it was really fun! I got super lucky, my score was the same as the amount of years from the expected total heat death of the universe :D

We are talking about Vayne mains here. What the actual f*ck did you expect?

IGotScuttleCrabs14 votes

There should be a multiplier for mastery flashing Lv 5 x2 Lv 6 x2.5 Lv7 x3

HarIe6 votes

But should there be a modifier for flashing it postmortem versus being alive?

IGotScuttleCrabs2 votes

add .5 flash flashing it preflight like a taunt

I will never see vayne the same way again. Who am I kidding, they're still toxic as hell, I just now have a coping mechanism.

I get this is supposed be a joke but Vaynespotting is toxic.

Calling out Vaynespotting doesn't make anything better, it's just more negativity Vayne mains don't need.

We will be the first to know that we kited/dodged incorrectly

You're not supposed to tell them you're Vaynespotting them, fool. You're not supposed to say anything. Making them angrier would ruin the whole point of it. It's supposed to be natural.

It's like the control group in an experiment. You need to see how something reacts without additional stimuli.

Your first mistake is assuming that anyone calls it out in game.

I Vaynespot by myself and for myself, my aim is to win, not to tilt my own teammates into playing (in some cases) even more poorly.

######but that's just my $.02*[slayer-jinx-catface]*

Of course the Vayne main would complain about this and try to ruin the mood for everyone lmao

First of all - it is spelled Vayne Mayne. Second - they complaining actually make it funnier

Is it a reference to the old YouTube time limit?

FatedSaviour1 votes

no, but what, that exists, wtf that mustve been so short videos

PalPlays1 votes

Technically it still exists, but you can ask for special permissions to get it extended to 10 hours.

You are the opposite of Transvayne. Everyone knows you are lying because you did not spell it Vayne Mayne

Damn, now we get 0 points from you. Try Vayning again, really want to get some points here.

Come on man you know logic and politeness has no place online >:(

I feel bad for you tho so imma give you an upvote and you can rest in peace knowing i have your back bro :)

blueberrypancake1 votes

Thank you

I knew about Vaynespotting before this but IMO, the more people seek negativity in people (like vayne players) the more likely they are going to think negatively of them. (Obviously I could make a really big hyperbole to explain more but for this I don't wanna make a bigger shitstorm)

It just results in what Vaynespotting is trying to mock

SnakDatSmilesBak1 votes

Obviously in the grand scheme of things you're right and posts like yours shouldn't be downvoted imo bc it's important to remember this is a joke. But you do come off as a lil bit preachy and this is the memes and games forum and since you admitted you're a vayne player you're gonna get lots of hate sadly. But you shouldn't worry about it bc in the end you're right!

Although, you're wrong about how vaynespotting doesn't make anything better. I'm sure people, myself included, feel much better when their vayne fucks up and they laugh about it because of this meme as opposed to being salty. Do you see what I mean?

blueberrypancake2 votes

Yeah I know what you mean, but what initially starts out as a meme can end up being malicious. As long as people don't impose it on other people then I have no problem with it (it's the other circumstance I mean by that it doesn't help the Vayne player or the Vayne spotter). If I'm playing well anyways like I'm supposed to I shouldn't worry about it, rather than being another story people base their biases off of (I guess I failed that here).

SnakDatSmilesBak1 votes

Right but I don't think very many people here are actually doing this in their games and calling vaynes out.

(And if you think about it, if people are basing their ideas off of facts and statistics they're not really biases)

blueberrypancake2 votes

Whoops, I'll fix that last part that's not what i wanted it to come off as what I wanted it as

I'm not that insane to be a fact deny-er

SnakDatSmilesBak1 votes

Idk how to dm you but are you into chemistry? I'm a chem major (sort of) and I'm always looking for ways to learn more. Your name implies you've used a Bunsen burner before and that implies science.

blueberrypancake2 votes

My name is actually a joke that I made that everyone that personally now me is sick of. It describes my character very nicely. I actually I've only have used a bunsenburner once

Downvoting and then upvoting for a double upvote.

Standgrounding3 votes

Gonna actually one trick Vayne just for that :D Vayne summoner 4 into 5 of them uses level 7 mastery "GG no peel noob supp and noob jungle never gang and noob top" "retardd team" "RETAAAAAAAAARDS" "I'm done" starts trolling, executing into enemy turrets, baron and whatnot, buy tears and mobi, buy redemption and waste it on baron when team isn't doing, buy thornmail, go full ap, etc etc... "Afk" "BG nabs" actually disconnects

Baron of Bread2 votes

Worth mentioning is that you don't have to be the support to Vaynespot! It is fun for the whole team!

Ariel the Cruel3 votes

The Vayne is on your team. Therefore, it is only fun for 80% of your team.

ScarletSurgeon2 votes

The part about Transvaynes......earns you 3 upvotes. I'm gonna hit that button 3 times!

WinTheWarOnPants2 votes

I thought "vayne spotting" was seeing the enemy vayne and instantly ulting them. Specifically with a cc heavy ult burst combo like Vi MonkeyKing Warwick Malphite etc.

Finn Teh Human2 votes

Lol as if no one else says anything above. I've seen Thresh mains not only say this, but say it after they miss their Q but flash flay anyways.

SzGamer2271 votes

So if I spot a Vayne flashing under tower for a Pentakill causing the enemy team to surrender resulting in Vayne saying "gg" as good sportsmanship, does this net in 2x2x5x2=40 points? I think I've gotten the most amount of points possible from a non-toxic Vayne player... ^.^

EDIT: Just checked the replay and she did not actually Flash so I only get 20 ;-;

The prize for 40 points from a non-toxic Vayne is still up for grabs!

HAHAHAHAH The transvayne thing really got me to lol. Nice post im down to make this a thing. Featured game mode riot??
