Makes excuses for feeding lane Doesn't know how to play safe Only upgrades trinket and wards because he thinks he has to...while not really warding anything important either Makes terrible and delayed decisions, having no ability to self reflect he doesn't learn from his mistakes and does it again. Doesn't take on advice Attempt to force people to play the game in a way that fits his flawed perspective on how it should be played (jglers can deal with their own problems but must come and save him from his hurr durr) Sucks off better players then him for sympathy when he plays bad, because he thinks he is hot shit and deserves all of the "second" chances in the world to prove himself Doesn't focus farming or when he does he tunnel visions it and ignores his team Doesn't read the map, but wards his bush anyway Always pushes up lane, always. That or he is feeding too bad to even try Tells everyone he came back from a long break/ is drunk/ is stoned/ is tired/ is stressed/ is new to his champion in order to absolve himself of any blame for making the game hard for his team Doesn't completely understand the meaning of "teamcomp" Misclicks, a lot Doesn't know how to contest or prioritise objectives so to make something happen forces an all in Feeds in ranked with his "main" Has thin skin and likes to flame back at angry players After all this still thinks he is destined for greatness

This is me and it makes me an annoying shit to play with, however I want to just spend a little time explaining it if you want to bear with me. This game is interesting in the sense that there is no tried and testing one way ticket to learning the game properly, all there is is the guides from the few people who assume you know what you are doing to begin with and playing the game itself. That means without any tools for guidance to the basics people can play thousands of games and not learn anything.

Yet the biggest issue with this is figuring out the best course of action in any given situation is up to you and your judgement alone. This is half the game as many of you in the higher elos know (though there aren't as many of you as people would like to think) and it is achieved through learning how the game works... what a surprise!!! Yet what makes me such a douchebag like 80% of the people I play with (exaggeration but it feels like it) is that I am locked so deep in my ignorance that I don't see the importance of doing something other then the way I have been playing for my entire time in league, I just think I need to get better at it (with some people it's not even that, they blame everything else as to why it doesn't work).

Ignorance is a weapon like a child in possession of a hand-grenade, you are only going to harm yourself. There are many of you now who may recognise this in yourself, this is good it means you can see past it if you first pay attention to it!

Oh and AMA (it is 1 AM at the time of writing so I'll get to any questions in a few hours)
