Had the most soul crushing fuck by RNG today

Hibeki··2 votes·495 views

Morde vs Fiora top. Terrible matchup, but I'll do my best!

Lose first blood, it happens. But what's this? The minions are pushing? That sucks!

Fiora freezes the wave right in front of her turret, minions continue to push itself for five straight minutes

Fiora has 3 level advantage on me, finally the wave resets to the turret after I cleared a few jungle camps. Whats this? Kindred has a mark on our gromp, making her go top and tower dive me

Kindred stays top because it marks me over and over again giving her a reason to camp

They push together to my inhibitor, literally nothing I can do. Wasn't until they started to attack the inhibitor itself that I actually got someone to finally come fucking top (I was a solo with a four man premade, no surprise my lane had no attention)

Eventually lost from a massive lead. Ultimately, there was no right decision to make. Walking to lane would get me killed ultimately trying to get exp, and leaving lane for exp in jungle camps was too slow.

Honestly I tried my best and there was really nothing I could do. This probably could have been helped if the jungler had just babysat top for a while, or someone had come top before the inhibitor was being attacked.

RNG is a cruel mistress sometimes...

I even asked everyone in the game what the 'right thing to do' was, and they told me to 'play safe'

So my options were: A) continue what I was doing and not die in lane, playing safe. Outcome: reported for troll (which was what happened

or B) walk to lane in a desperate attempt for exp, die several times. Outcome: Reported for feed

Literally no winning there.

The minion AI trying to push and the repetitive marks on the Gromp and Me from kindred giving them an incentive to be top

You realize that the Kindred player marks champions, not RNG

Can't select the several marks on gromp though

Actually your junle can to some extent. The first two marks pretty much alwasy go to the scout crab but from there on it would mark one of the 4 small camps on your jungle. Realistically any jungler can take at most 3 out of 4 so there is always one that you can't farm at all. Normally that is krugs or gromp since they are the farthest (wolfs and chickens are on mid lane so you have more opportunity to take them while you rotate). Since your jungler wasn't going top at all the left out camp was froggie...hence why it continue to get marked.

The minion AI trying to push

That's not RNG. Minions will always try to push 100% of the time.

and the repetitive marks on the Gromp

Gromp can only be marked between 3-4 stacks of Mark of the Kindred. If gromp were marked and kindred killed it, then they killed you, Gromp could never be marked again.

and Me

Kindred chooses their mark on players. And after completing a hunt, kindred can't mark the same player for 4 minutes.

Having a look at the game on op.gg, I'm really trying to figure out what you were building. You rushed a zhonya's first item, then built 2 long swords. You bought a pink ward, but never placed it, and placed a total of 3 wards in a 22 minute game. I'm sorry, that wasn't the RNG gods ruining your game, it appears you just weren't playing that well.

Minion AI isn't intelligent, it doesn't rush the cannon creep because they know thats the way to push, no, they attack whatever is in front of them. They unfortunately for me repeatedly attacked targets that advanced their wave

Need zhonyas for 'defense' because people say to 'build defense when behind' (which they are wrong) and longswords build into gunblade.

There was no real point for me to put down vision because im literally sitting in the turret behind the one they were attacking, since no one ever came top and I cant go and fight them

Yes, it was in fact RNG gods ruining my game.

It sounds to me like Fiora knew how to freeze her wave, which isn't RNG at all. You could have warded the river brush and sat within xp range. While you wouldn't have been able to CS, you would have atleast gotten experience and not fallen as far behind.

Building defense when you're behind isn't wrong, you just didn't do it right.

RNG didn't ruin anything. Rather than blame the game for screwing you over, think about what you could have done better.

Uhh, no. Yes fiora froze the wave, but the fact that my cs continuosly pushed to allow that was in fact RNG

Go ask anyone, Bjergson even says in videos you build offense when behind

Do you know how small exp range is? Having their creeps outside their turret means my exp range is right in the center of the lane, giving her and the jungler free reign to kill me over and over again.

It is 100% the games fault for the first half, the second half is the teammates half for not paying attention until the bare inhib is being attacked.

That's not RNG at all. That's knowing how to freeze a wave. If you freeze a wave right, you can keep it frozen pretty much indefinitely. It's a useful skill, and one everyone should learn. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEX7JxeKCxg

That's why you ward the river brush so the jungler can't come and gank you. Clearly hugging turret wasn't working, as even doing that you died 9 times.

It's not. Take some responsibility and learn from your mistakes. Neither the game nor your teammates killed you or forced you to get behind. There are always ways you could have played something better.

All I'm going to say is you really don't know unless you were in the game or watched it. If you have any way to watch the replay, by all means do so.

Kindred marks top lane, enemy fiora(if it was blind pick)
