"reported for KS"

Why do people still get pissed if you just accidently steal 1 kill? I just had this Vi that afk'ed the whole game because I ks'ed 2 kills. Later she said something like "SEE GO LOSE FUCKING %%%%%%, THINK TWICE BEFORE STEALING A KILL FROM ME"

I main support (just saying that to get it out of the way) and sometimes I'll get the kill from autoattacks, and the adc will flip out at me, all I can think is "bish, I sit in lane and babysit you 24/7 in early game, and follow you around mid game, I take no farm, rarely recall, and always heal you and give you buffs." Whining about being "behind" now because of that and I'm sitting here like "You have never been on a support's gold budget then." ._.

shoulda reported them for not working as a team. In a team based game there is no such thing as a ks.

This never made sense to me, but it falls into the realm of the guys who have been saying that KDA needs to be used to determine promotions in ranked. Too many people think of this game as 5 individual fighters who just happen to be pushing toward a common victory condition and if we work together that's nice too.

My attitude to having a kill stolen has always been, "I'll get the next one." I'm more interested in objectives so a kill that helps the team push for an objective is something I like. I really don't worry about who got it.

(of course, I also have become quite good at farming so one kill doesn't have a huge effect on my gold stockpile. And I do still have good games for kills like a recent one on Sona where I went 6/0/8 including a triple kill without really paying attention - none stolen from my ADC as all occurred after laning was over.)

It's not "Stealing a Kill". People need to unlearn this thought. If everyone worked on the kill, and someone other than the adc gets it, kills are not labled "ADC [Role] Only".

I've been seeing KS complaints in ARAM recently too, even though its a constant 5v5 situation and gold is not a problem. KDA is not that special, guys. x'D

Sounds like that individual has to concentrate to breathe, I'm sorry you had to put up with that.

the KS whiners are the ones who will never leave bronze, its a team game not a you game. my favorite thing to reply with after KS if the guy is being an asshat is "ok next time ill let them get away"

I had a similar situation before. My My ADC died (which he blamed on me... in allchat), then I took the kill... which really wasn't a KS (no ignite, he would have gotten away... so why not kill him?). But he raged and cursed me out. I tried to talk with him and reason, but he wouldn't have any of it. Then I... well, see for yourself

You win the game by destroying the nexus, not killing the enemy.

The nexus gives you 50 gold by last-hitting it.

Wish people would afk only if you stole nexus from them.
