Is this a new insult or something? "Wow you really mastered that champ. Press r more. So impressive." When did talking shit because someone successfully used their ult become a thing?

My personal big issue are champions that get free Immunity to everything off of one move that ends up being spammable within their regular buildpath. Fiora's ult, Yi's Q (Along with his Reset capabilities and innate base sustain mid-fight), Fizz's Playful/Trickster, and then the person tries to act like they're skilled, or they actually had to try to do that. No, no you really didn't. You dodged AOE and CC with one move, then exploded the backline with your innate hyper-mobility, Try and do that with a champion who isn't as blessed by the Rito Gods, like Yorick.

That said, goddamn was URF fun, it's always nice to remind people WHY exactly Yorick has to be managated so hard xD

Depends on the champ. Trynd karthus and fiora are pretty good examples. I mean trynd you literally press r and you cant die. Not a whole lot of skill their. Similar to fiora.

Earl EulrichApr 19, 20152 votes

though with tryn you still have to be active an avoid being kited for the time being to make that effect actually usefull.

SwollwonderApr 19, 20151 votes

Doesn't change the fact you can easily kill or duel in the scenario by pressing r

Tryndamere has far more depth than people realize. If you pop R at the wrong time or get cc'd at all during its duration, you are going to have a really hard time making any use of it. Unlike Fiora with Blade Waltz (I hate that ability so much), Tryndamere can actually be kited and dealt with during Undying Rage.

Even if you are level 16 Kassadin with a two second Riftwalk, there is absolutely nothing you can do to counter Blade Waltz if Fiora gets within 600-1200 range (Lunge). Her ult will follow you no matter how far you blink from the starting location, it's literally impossible to get her off you through conventional mechanics like kiting or crowd control. You can itemize against it, sure, but short of outranging Lunge or 100-0ing her she's going to land her ult and there is nothing you can do about it.

I say this alot. There is no such thing as a noob champion, just noobs to complain about champions. The person who said the title in game is a moron

Eh, theres WW. Which, to be fair, is his entire problem. Thats why he was up for a rework.

What champ were you playing?

Fiora

Are you shitting me...? Did anyone build item 3075 at all? Did anyone gank your lane due to your lack of escapes or cc? Did they blow one cooldown on you to stun and then blow you up for a free kill?

Look, Fiora is annoying, but has enough counterplay to make the doctor go "Damn, I could get health tips from her."

I feel no sympathy for your opponents. They were not worthy opponents for you, the ones you long for.

BetaDude40Apr 19, 20154 votes

My friends all rushed a thornmail in URF when we were against a Fiora, and one of us got Gromp buff.

I am fairly certain she ragequit after about the second or third ult.

IcyPepperApr 19, 20151 votes

That's how it's done, son.

BeatzBoyFTWApr 19, 20151 votes

Well there you have it. Press R to win teamfights indeed.

Da3awssApr 19, 20151 votes

lol its like when you play yi, people complain that you chose a champ that can gap close the backline and then Auto Attack to death.

Tribbles FoxfolkApr 19, 20151 votes

Ever since Katarina and Akali were things, really. Teams with no CC (AKA: all Bronze/Silver teams) are the main ones that bitch about "Press R more noob", ESPECIALLY full-squishy teams.

Because of the low elo's unholy obsession with trying to be the next Insec with #LC$B!GPL@Y$, very few teams in the low elo will be smart enough to buy GAs, MR, or make a comp with CC (Malz mid, Malph top, Sej jung, Leona supp, Varus ADC is a good team for chaining CC and teamfighting).

This is why I end up playing Morg support every game so we actually have a mage and CC. Sigh This hell that Riot traps us in ;_; (Btw, before you make any dumb remarks about "You're where you belong, retard", I get matched with high Silvers and low Golds CONSISTENTLY almost every game. That means my MMR is high enough to be playing with them. I win a decent amount of my games too, I'm going to put it around between 55-65%.)

SEKAIApr 19, 20151 votes

It's the very concept of champions really, it isn't like all champions have unpowerful or spammable ult so that "insult" is just a little bit too comical.

Not to mention getting rekt by Fiora is the very example of how someone should stay in the lower elo bracket.

PoisonedPeaceApr 19, 20153 votes

Ive been told you can pretty much fiora your way to plat

BetaDude40Apr 19, 20154 votes

I'm Bronze, I can indeed testify that Fiora is absolute hell for anyone in my division that goes top.

I tell them to build thornmail, but, ya know, my Mobafire build doesn't say so, so I shouldn't. I gotta get my 5th Doran's blade before I can even think about getting that

MohawkBirdApr 19, 20153 votes

I absolutely hate it when people just blindly follow mobafire expecting to get the best results. Just had a Lee Sin go against Fiora top and told him to start cloth 5 to mitigate her damage. He tells me "No I need my damage it's in my build" and proceeds to start longsword. Needless to say he completely fed the Fiora and she carried their team.

SirsirApr 19, 20151 votes

Fiora has an above average winrate all the way up to Plat. Even in Diamond it varies heavily from 55-45 so...

ThatzSoDravenApr 19, 20151 votes

Because people can be real jerks :c I main Draven so I've had practice with across the maps ults and what not, now that shit can be hard cause you gotta predict where the champ you wanna hit might move etc, i still get shit when i kill them across the map o . o and they be like "Fuck you! Just ult me like that! Pressing R isn't hard!" y'know all that bs, but uh....you gotta line that up too...Aha anyways, people just get mad because they died. I saw below you played Fiora. The thing is, with her ult it's not a matter of just pressing a button, it's about timing and if it's smart to use it and so on. It's like with Katarina, people be like "She's a piss easy champ." No. She may be a little easier to grasp in terms of her kit, but they're hard to master and really play well. In any case, just ignore them, they have no idea what they're talking about <3

EmbertineApr 19, 20151 votes

I've heard this insult too. To me though, an ult is meant to be a game changing ability, something that switches the fight into your favor and shouldn't be used whenever you happen to have it. So I tend to save my ults for the best time to use them, often enough getting kills with them. So I have also been insulted for "pressing r"

Oh Hai MarcApr 19, 20151 votes

I remember some people telling me that Kennen is press r to win. Needless to say i muted them right after.

SexyTaylorSwiftApr 19, 20151 votes

It isn't an insult...unless you're playing Zed.

The LexerApr 19, 20151 votes

I think people use it when the person who got the kills thinks they are totally the best in the world and say so in all chat (or something similar)

Potato DocApr 19, 20151 votes

Interestingly enough as people intend this to be an insult there are actually quite a few champions that you need to know good timing of pressing R that shows champion mastery

A perfect example is tryn. Im horrifically bad at timing his R meanwhile people who actually mastered this champion always seem to get their ults off right before I land a finishing blow.

Karthus is another one. A good karthus presses R after a fight and gets a kill, or atleast damages all enemies on the field. A great karthus knows his timing and can penta kill during a team fight using his R

SirsirApr 19, 20151 votes

It just depends on the champion. If a Cait starts gloating after securing a kill with her ult (no blockers) it makes sense. If a Yasuo starts gloating after Malphite sets him up, it makes sense.

Because people like to wave-dick for such silly things, our generation is seriously really fond of winning and having opinions of equality (even though these aren't un-biassed nor reasonable). That's why you see people raging to Yasuos R, undervalue any form of cheese.

Im not one to complain about thing like this but since this is the topic i feel like Syndra is this way because ive seen syndras that miss everything literally EVERYTHING but im still in r range and get hamblated by dark ball things item 3070

The Bíg TicketApr 20, 20151 votes

Malzahar and Warwick main here...back in S4 when I was climbing Silver I used to hear "press R WW..so skill" in atleast 50 percent of the games from the enemy.

DEmperor95Apr 20, 20151 votes

You have a point, because usually even easy ults have some form of counterplay like itemization etc. Except if you're playing Fiora . Then yes you should take this as an insult. A well-deserved one.
