The most annoying thing about ranked.

I hate when you're in champ select, and everyone calls what they'd prefer to play, and some genius who has "pick order" picks away someones preference, then completely loses the game with that role. :@ I know pick order is there for a reason but I hate it. I always let people have what they want and try to fill. In this instance I was duoing with a friend who mains ADC, so I wanted to support him. Some genius took support away from me and ended up doing so poorly there was nothing any of us could do. I was getting /msg messages from my buddy saying this support didn't ult during fights, and wouldn't even use his spells properly. Grr >:

He may have been a support main, everyone has bad games even at their best role.

I think a lot of times people view others as worse than they are because they only see the game through their own experiences. When people think of what is good and bad usually what they are thinking about is what has worked for them vs what hasn't, but that is going to be different for different people. Sometimes peoples strategies just don't mesh well. This is going to be especially true for bot lane. If one is aggressive and the other is more passive they are likely going to view each other as bad. The passive one is going to view the aggressive one as reckless and the aggressive one is going to think the passive one isn't doing anything.

I always be as accommodating as I can. Although I rarely run into any issues with my role. I start every champ select with "top please" and I get it about 90% of the time.

I do understand the annoyance with this but really its pointless. If someone was bad with the role they wanted then they would have been even worse with w/e role they didn't want.

Mixed be fixed for next season - which has rumors of lane selection (team builderish style).

Also, Pick Order Is Only Order!
