Raises Hand Ahem, yes. I am the one who fills the enemy team or allied team in on everything about the champion. I like my matches fair, and my builds spicy. I also enjoy my "Helpful" honors.

The Aqualious32 votes

Allies, that is fine, go ahead, they are the only ones who can give you HELPFUL honours

But enemies... That's Treason

i agree with that mentality.

but i would also add this. How is it fun if your going against someone who doesnt even know how the champion your playing works? ya you faceroll them, but there wasnt even a challenge in beating them.

hell, i helped someone learn anivia while playing against them in the same lane, 2 games after i got stomped by an anivia while i was playing the same champ.

In normals, sure. If you're in ranked, you take the win. You already proved to be better than that person by knowing the enemy champion, you deserve the win.

Treason why it's just a sportsman like thing to do its not like they tell them your playstyle and habits

The Aqualious2 votes

Because you're betraying your team

ForgottenLuck2 votes

being a good sportsman is not betraying the team, when a soccer player falls it's not betraying the team to help him up, when a nation goes to war it's not betraying the team to befriend someone from the opposing nation and when you help someone learn something new even if you are vs them it's not betraying the team, heck if it was betrayal report everyone that starts the game saying "good luck and have fun" for wishing the enemy team luck, you being a kind person does not mean he betrays the team it just means he has a moral that he is willing to keep and as his teammates don't you think we should understand it.

But if you tell the enemy "look our tanks can hit from this far and they have really strong armor in the front but their back is really vulnerable lol"

That's fucking treason.

ForgottenLuck1 votes

it ain't treason it's just being a bit of a blabbermouth. It's true that a teammate should not give tip's on how to defeat a champ on your team, but telling one what they do isn't different since one should enter the game thinking the enemy they already know how to counter it or at least know how to fight vs it, if they only ask for what a spell does it is good sportmanship to say but if they start to ask "what is the perfect form of beating it" then to that one can remain quiet. Remember it ain't a weakness to just describe what an enemy does but it is to tell them what to counter build or even how to dodge it

In the army, it's considered treason. Do you think people did not get executed if they (accidentally) spilled military secrets? They did and they were publicly humiliated as a traitor.

The point is... Should we compare a League game to war? My opinion is: in rankeds, yes. In normals, no.

If I feel like my opponent is not building their core item or is building the wrong source of resistance in a normal game, I tell them, because a close game is the best game. But in a ranked, you play to win, close or not, you will take the safest path to victory. That's also why I don't kill an obviously dc'ed enemy in normals, but I definitely will in ranked. If your opponent's gun stutters, you don't wait till he's fixed it, you just shoot him and move on.

ForgottenLuck2 votes

but one is not giving military secret's to the enemy they are human having to fight a battle to what their nation believes to be a threat to their people but does that make all woman, child and elderly an enemy just if they are from the opposing nation, does that give a right to kill them on the spot since they had zero say on where they were born or if they even wanted to go to war, and it's not giving military secrets to say "this gun once you pull the trigger it fires", which is what we are talking about here (describing what a spell does), if we were to say the team mate said "we are doing baron" then yes it is treason but it's just "the Q stuns when it hits two people" then that's just describing the spell something that the very own community has wanted to be said by asking for a better death recap. And though it is usually said that one should take every advantage life gives there is another in that a community as a whole can't really grow without a good example, why not be that example, this community always complains about how toxic we are yet no one wants to do anything to change it, we would rather yell and blame each other when we can try to make a better community with some good sport's manship and yes it might cost the game but at the end its just that a game where no one can win 100% (that's impossible) you are bound to lose some that's life. “We but mirror the world.

I once told an enemy jungle Kled how to do the first clear properly, he gave me an awkward thanks and then ganked me two minutes later. I didn't die, and then I asked how it was clearing and he said that it was good before thanking me again.

I got 4 honors from the enemy team that game, I honestly want everyone to have fun when playing. That being said, there's a difference between helping someone have fun and helping someone beat you.

The Aqualious4 votes

It's fine to be helpful, like that, I just think it's silly for someone to be explaining to the enemy how a champion on your team works and fights

That's just nice tips

Jet Sett3 votes

Indeed, don't tell Zed how to play against TF, he beats me so easy naturally that it's the player's fault if they can't win.

Astôlfo7 votes

I'd help them. It's more enjoyable to have a fun game. But then again, I mostly play Normals.

In Ranked, I'd probably wait until after the game. But I don't really play Ranked since I'm not good at the game in execution (as opposed to just knowledge).

one time I told an enemy yasuo how to counter my team's veigar because he said first time yasuo.

thankfully he ended up as basically a salty troll and sucked even though I told him the surefire

"every time veigar tries to stun you just windwall him and you can't die"

strat, he still lost lane.

I think it was that game though at least.

I love helping people! I've never been able to tell if someone just doesn't know what my champion does, but I've had people make unintelligent decisions against me. For example, I was playing Karthus, and the opposing Lux was having difficulty dodging Lay Waste. I go for an all in, and she doesn't back off despite being slightly lower than I. I take her down in a close trade with sustained damage. I tell her, "Close one Lux! Next time, don't let me get so close. Abuse your range". I don't tell her to dodge my skillshots beforehand because that's something she knows to do already; she's just bad at it. She said nothing, but she took in the advice, for she stood further back and took much less harass from me.

Another time I was playing Shyvana top against a Yasuo. He was Summoner level 18, but his cs was very good and he played the champion pretty well, so at first I thought he might be a silver smurf or something. He didn't trade well though, and he let me get auto attacks off on him and chase him off of the minion wave. He also pushed hard and opened himself up for ganks. I decided that he was in fact a level 18 Summoner, and that while his mechanics were all right, he didn't have good knowledge of the game. So I started teaching him. "Hey Yasuo, your cs is really good. you're pushing too far though." "That opens you up to ganks." "Also don't let me attack you without attacking me back" "also just don't let me run up to you in the first place" "you have longer range than me so you can harass and back off when I run at you". I spent about twenty seconds at tower typing this, gradually forgoing grammar conventions because I was losing minions at tower, but I still soaked up exp, and I definitely think I helped the guy. He did not act angrily at me for giving him advice. He thanked me. Later when I told him that he was doing a great job keeping his creep score up but still needed to play safer because Lee Sin saw him as an easy lane to gank, one of the other opponents, Nocturne, spoke up, "youre too nice shyvana. i cant gank you". This was in spite of me being an autopushing champion at Yasuo's tower most of the time. (I still felt like I had an obligation to my team to try my best. Not playing at my best would also deprive Yasuo of his learning experience.) The Anivia support then said, "Thanks for teaching our new friend, we really appreciate it". As the game transitioned to middle game and I started being more directly involved in my team they started targeting me, but that was just because they wanted to win as much as we did.

I had a good time in both games, and I'm glad I was able to make some people's days better.

I never see anyone use Kayle support anymore and when I do and proceed to do at least moderately well until the jungler, he had been busy getting his mid laner fed, finally decides to come bot and decimate the adc cause I was the only one warding.

Iivaitte1 votes

I have this struggle any time I choose a utility support.

As Zilean: "That's my speed up is not my ult" "My ult doesn't last that long" "Just because I ult you, does not mean you have to turn to the enemy to proc it." "I gotta share my passive with other players too." "Speed up does not mean engage" "No, I will not pick up a deathcap on support, I cant even afford it"

As Thresh: "I'm only trying to put a shield on you, you don't need to grab it." "I'm just trying to absorb gromps souls, this is not the time for a gank" "I'm throwing my lantern in to get vision, not to say its ok to go there" "I will not get black cleaver on thresh" (seriously where do these adcs come from?)

Luckily it gets more and more rare the more I rank up.

The Aqualious1 votes

But... AP Zilean is Busted...

Iivaitte1 votes

the burst is acceptable, but over time the dps becomes less and less compared to almost any other mid-laner. Not saying its bad, its just unreliable late game.

DorkunedAuras2 votes

1.8 AP ratio + 600 base. Even if you manage to get 1000 AP somehow, that's a total of 2400 damage. Without any MR, tank ekko will live. With MR, he's fine.

add baron buff blue bluff and item 2139

DorkunedAuras1 votes

So, the pot adds 40 true damage to the combo, big whoop

As for those other buffs, those will just be things that help zil reach the 1k AP which he absolutely cannot reach without.

I'm not sure why you bring this up

cyberchade1 votes

i hit about 1.3k with that and two fire drakes did forget to bring that up. I have seen some people just take ap runes Just ap runes no Mr no pagic pen etc etc etc just ap

DorkunedAuras1 votes

(Going to assume you meant 1.3k, not 13k)

What champ, what build got you 1.3k AP.
