i know, Talon in my team last night i kindly said ''mate, when you use your ultimate Q first then R mid air as you land your R, R again and you get instant 3 stacks then proc your passive and jump a wall to get out''
i got ''shut the fuck up man, go back to your hole''.......ok and i left it.
Jhin is another favourite of mine, i advised him to spell-weave to maximise his DPS and i got ''this isn't WoW bro that shit doesn't work here L2P''
- me thinking ''62% WR in ranked after 65 games with him but ok ill shut up, you know better bro, dont spell weave....
It happens.
(Me) (I'm an L7 Champ Mastery on Darius, just for clarification)
(Player I'm advising)
All I said was "My rule of thumb is AA, a few times, E them when they run away, W them once you pull them in, and Q as they try to back off after your W, R if it's available and the timing is right."
The response I got was, well, to quote Mr. Popo from DBZ Abridged, "**tch, Don't tell me what to do!"
Nobody ever plays Shen in my games.
Except one time in ranked somebody tried to pick Shen on the enemy team and I actually freaked out.
This was me on Old Yorick xD trying to tell someone advice cause they were trying him out. "If a ghoul is off CD, you are doing something wrong" Other person "But that wastes maaanaa" BRA THATS THE POINT,
Yeah you cannot tell people how to play a champ during game. Everyone's ego is super fragile during a game for some reason. It needs to be worded properly or you get lashed at.
I know I don't like getting people trying to tell me to build differently when I am on my main/ best champ. Half the time they are looking to place blame for a game that is on the road to defeat to make themselves feel better.
Even little things like trying to tell an ADC they should consider other options than warlords keystone since its nerf.....Yeah... i avoid questioning build paths until after game.
"advice to someone playing ur main" the dude might play this champion in a better way than you so yeah .. don't tell him what to do.
Though their language is usually a bit more colorful.
Colorful... good description. And I have to put up with it twice as much as the average player because I main two champs.
I once had someone try to explain the virtues of mana-gating, about a season too late for it back in 4 when mana was much easier to sustain (or I may be mixing up 4 with early 5 but it's getting hard to keep track of how much things change in league )
I've also had people tell me how to deal with an opponent when i'm the one NOT dying to them XD
I've been on the opposing end of this as well. I forget who they were playing, but I basically had to babysit them at the time because a fed jax was much more frightening at the time than marksmen or junglers. The opposing jungler capitalized on my absence and of course, the top lane pretty much cussed me out to leave. They would have died four times in five minutes if I hadn't been there to stop it...and less than 30 seconds after I leave, "an ally has been slain"
you don't try to duel a jax...especially when you are at 40% and the jax is full health XD
