Can I Have A Choice!?

SuicideJ··1 votes·690 views

Let's say I wanna play a game of league..

But I just wanna play Jungle..

So I pop open a play Draft screen..

I'm asked to pick two positions I want..

I do not want two positions..

I want one position, Jungle..

The first position I pick is the one I want the most..

I pick Jungle..

The second position is the backup position..

I do not want a backup position..

I cannot continue til I select a backup position..

So I pick my worst lane because there is no way Riot would give me my worst lane because I picked Jungle as my lane..

I start the match and proceed to champ select..

I get my worst lane..

How does this happen..

I do not want my worst lane..

I want Jungle..

I pick random champion because I suck at that lane and I do not want to play it..

I get punished if I leave..

So I spend the next hour in a losing match where the enemy team destroys my team but toys with us..

We do not get the surrender to pass..

I die 30 times since I have no idea what I'm doing, because I am not in Jungle..

I do not have masteries or an item set built on this champ..

I get sad and don't want to play anymore..

Can I just choose the lane I want..

Like If I have to choose..

I'd choose the lane I want..

So.. If I am good at only one lane.. And I don't get that lane.. Then what exactly do you propose I do? Teambuilder let me play what I wanted so I could get better at what I wanted to play.. Now odds are I'll end up where I am not good at playing it's my fault?

Learn the other lanes? It's essential to learn every role or a minimum of 3. If you can't play at least 2 roles I also have no sympathy for you, it's just riot pushing you to get better by becoming a more versatile player. Pick the role your favorite jungler can do other than jungle and learn that, it'll be easier to learn a new role with a champ you know.

That's fucking stupid. You messed up, face the consequences.

Pray tell, How did I mess up? If Jungle is the only lane I'm good at then every other lane is my worst.. How exactly did "I" mess up? I don't recall telling Riot to give me everything but what I want..

You out your worst lane instead of second worst lane. Primary and secondary have pretty much the same value, except primary weighs a bit more. So just out you're second best role for secondary.

Pick a lane as primary in normals and jungle as secondary, find out what you like, spam it as much as you can, get good at it with the occasional jungle from your secondary pick so you retain what you're good at, and then when you feel like you're good enough, get back to Ranked.

I hope everyone noticed the clear Satirical essence of this page, but with the downvotes I'm assuming not. I know how to play all but 1 lane with multiple champs. However, If I want to play a certain champion in a certain lane, it is not up to Riot to tell me what I can or cannot play and who I can or cannot play. That was the point of this entire post. Sure, I COULD play another lane, but if I always get the lane I don't want I'll get sick of that lane. So the original Teambuilder made this possible and it was great. Freedom of choice. Currently Riot doesn't want you to have a choice, and that doesn't sit well with me.
