A tip for wannabe "pros"

CheftoniFTW··2 votes·442 views

This goes out to all the players that have "SKT" or "TSM" or "C9" or whatever in front of their names trying to be hot shit.

Don't.

I have encountered way too many of these wannabe pro players that use these names, but they tend to be the most toxic and horrible players I have ever encountered. Legit, you are giving these teams a bad name by sullying them.

Just dodged champ select because some kid "SKT Blankblankblank" or whatever decides to suddenly go Tristana duo jungle because I DARED to play something I wanted to play. I wanted to play support Jinx, something I've been playing for a few games and it's been working out in my favour, always learning, always increasing my pool of off-meta picks to throw off the enemy or to add more pushing power because (Being in Bronze) towers seem to no longer exist.

So I last pick Jinx Support clearly saying "I am playing an off-meta support" then after I select Jinx, kid goes mad takes smite and starts screaming that he's gonna feed and he doesn't care about the game. The fuck are you trying to prove?

Kid, legit. GTFO my internet.

I'm aware. I called my role from the get-go, no one said a thing.

I find it a bit presumptuous at times, but all they are really doing is declaring who they root for. It's no different from a football fan to wear a team jersey, or here someone changing their name to include their main. They aren't claiming they are the best at it, just sharing their passion. A troll like you describe is going to be a troll no matter what their name is, and C9 isn't going to care either way.

Also, no shaming players on the forums.

How am I the troll? I fully intend on playing the game seriously but with an uncommon pick. And he is the one who starts screaming in all CAPS that he is straight up going to feed regardless. My point with the name sharing is that so far, I haven't met a single pleasant player who has a team name on their username.

then dont troll? jinx support brings nothing to the table that a just about any toher support would? its your fault you dont play seriously

also because some guy is smart and doesnt wanna have to deal with your dumbass jinx support anyone with a name like that should stop using that name?

Just because you disagree with it, doesn't mean it doesn't work. Jinx support works just fine. Maybe it's your closed mindedness that is at fault?

By your logic, you agree with the guy: "Because he is going something uncommon, I must intentionally lose the game."

No problem.

Start ancient coin with 2 biscuits and a ward, ancient coin eventually turns into talisman of ascension, giving more pushing power. Star W for poke (Have lots of mana regen so you can spam) Then go E so your ADC can zone and farm safely without attackers. Go Q once but max last, this becomes useful on your first maxed item, Frozen Hammer, the slow splashes onto surrounding enemies, you have item 3092 all day, targetable. I have no idea how to finish up the build just yet, but my core is item 3069 item 3022 item 2049 . (Cooldown boots allows you to ult more often, helping the team on a global level.)

I buy usually a BF sword for extra push, but with this build, you focus on kiting and zoning out your enemies instead of being the major damage dealer.

So far, it works well with Ezreal and Vayne, assuming your ADC focuses on farm and less on going all in, seeing as Jinx has little all-in capabilities (At least, none that I can pull off.)

The reason I play her support is because I suck as ADC, I can barely last hit unless I play Caitlyn. I used to play Thresh, but he doesn't have much pushing power.

I have done my research. I don't go into these things blindly. :/ (Climbed out of Bronze 5, give me SOME credit.) :)

Sure, there are better, but Jinx is a champion I was comfortable with since she was released, I just suck at last-hitting. :/ Picking off-meta champs is a strategy as it is. You confuse the enemy. What do you do when you see in champ select 2 ADCs? You assume 2 dudes fighting over a role, I see two players understanding what's going on.

So it's okay for you to go Jinx support, but it's not okay for the others to go duo jungle.

You misunderstood, pre-finger-flipper. He called ADC, picked Tristana and locked in. But when he saw my champ when I selected, he flipped, typed in all chat "I am going duo jungle and feed, idgaf."

I have no problem with duo jungle, just don't go screaming in like a 12 year old child throwing a tantrum because you something doesn't please m'lord.
