Bring back Vaynespotting.

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

The fact that you posted it this week is perfect

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

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

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

WinTheWarOnPants3/31/2017, 7:24:17 PM2 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.

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

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.

lol a transVayne Graves hes too sexy to be a transvayne can this work with the jungler and Riven dynamic?

The first Vayne I saw had a score of 52 until she blamed mid lane, then it shot up to 156 at the end game lobby.

This is hilarious. +1.

You are going to need a REALLY good calculator since mine only goes up to 9.9x10^99

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!
