I dodge for the following reasons

I will dodge the champ select and lose the 3lp if:

-Someone's summoner name is "josh123456" or similar. Or even worse, a modified famous player's name like "trick3g", nightblue4 or Hi I'm gosuuu -1 or more people are obnoxious and talk too much in champ select; for example overusing "xD" or spamming non funny jokes. -Someone says they're a girl and others start freaking out and talk even more -someone is on a losing streak

This saved me so much lp since I lost 3 instead of 15.

Your first two O.O

Especially because a number of people have names that they picked when they didn't care about League and haven't bothered to change them since. (For example I was breaker1523 for a long time and only switched a little while back, that didn't mean I lost more than other people)

I usually only dodge if someone is going to clearly be a jerk or troll during game.

What about "1st time _____"? i know that would be enough for me

You forgot the "Imma lock in Malz after we already have a mid and then just call all of you fuckboys"

and "1st time X champion don't h8, appreci8"

I don't dodge games. I often wish I did but I don't. I just try to maintain my sanity while also serving as the teams cheerleader. You'd be surprised how many losing games can be salvaged. If all else fails, throughout the match I make sure to let the players thrashing on other teammates or breaking the summoners code that they will be reported accordingly. I mean there's no reason for that kind of behavior or comments. It don't help the team and it definitely don't help the person who's having a bad game or what ever the case may be. And now that we get those little messages when someone we reported has been punished. It gives me a nice little warm fuzzy feeling after having to deal with that kind of stuff. Even if it's like once in every 75 matches I play. Lol

I dodge if I don't get to play Akali because she's either picked or banned.

I dodge if someone's already salty and the game hasn't even started yet. Or if I should just so happen to look my team up and see someone is very bad. I lost last night because I had a veigar go mid who is 5 and 35 in ranked matches and feeds EVERY game. I wish I had looked them up. I've got over 450 wins and 900 matches. Me and that guy shouldn't even be playing together, bronze or not.

I've never dodged a ranked game. Only time I ever came close to it was when last pick didn't realize top was already picked and went Shen. When the game started he had to go mid. About 15 minutes in his score was something like 7-0-2. Enemy team surrendered around 25 minutes.

Never dodge boys, or else you won't get glorious games like that.

I never dodge because the only fucking time I get a slightly competent team is when I have a troll doing something retarded like Bard mid. We'll actually make it past 20 minutes before losing then. All the rest we get blown out.

I only ever need to dodge when im in promos, fml

I find the talk too much thing is a big indicator of a loss. So many times.

Krigjer10/21/2015, 10:42:11 PM1 votes

The first one, lol. My friend used to be Josh12x before he changed his username to fit the ranked team.

I don't know how people have time to look up their fellow teammates in champion select. I'm too busy discussing team compositions, trying to figure out if I need to fill or not and adjusting rune pages.

I don't really dodge games myself. Only time I've ever done it has been because a duo asked me to, and I don't usually play with them again after that. (I've been pressured into dodging games before. )

meh, I only dodge if some asshole takes JG after I've locked it in or we get bad picks, so many people don't pick based on team comps and don't even know how to counter pick. It happens a lot in Bronze.

Best to save your dodge for something that really matters.
