Wukong locks in without a word. Waits until after I lock in Kat to tell us he's going mid.

PubgamerAU··54 votes·3,505 views

Doesn't talk to the team for the rest of the ban/pick phase. We ask him politely to go top instead as he's a better matchup vs Darius than a Kat with mid runes. He doesn't reply.

We get into the game. I obviously fall way behind because fucking Kat vs Darius. Wukong starts calmly insulting my skill at the game.

Please tell me this is grounds for either trolling or refusing to communicate?

Edit: I should say, I didn't even "lock in" kat, I let the timer expire while I had kat selected. He could have said something the entire time I had her selected, but he waited until after the timer expired.

Yes this behavior is reportable. Though you are going to write out exactly what is happening instead of just leaving the box empty.

Though him jumping on you for skill is easy to see. His sneaky troll pattern is something riot may look closer for if you describe what is happening.

No, this is league of legends- let me explain your mistake and why everything is your fault.

You describe him as calm yet you seem flustered- clearly "you are mad bro" and "it's just a game who cares", "chill get a life", and obviously "you should have asked man" not his fault

But more importantly, you said something to him about "your mistake" in the chat when you got upset didnt you? That makes you automatically guilty of verbal abuse by this games standards.

And then you guys lost hard because you weren't able to adapt and argued a lot- "you made them lose" So the rest of your team got mad at you too because you didn't "just farm kat" and "kat top sucks"

Suddenly, through the glory of league logic, you are now the bad guy. No, you're not crazy. Most LoL players just have no concept of cause and effect.

Darius confirmed viable in mid lane.

Darius+item 3074 item 3071 item 3142 item 3035 item 3156 item 3264= Scary Darius; your ult deals over 1k true damage at max, and your bleed deals up to ~120 damage per second.

Darius is hard counter to pretty much every melee

junglerboy162 votes

Trundle is pretty much the only melee in the game who can really lane against Darius effectively, because he can out-sustain Darius' bleed, steal his AD when he all ins, and his ult's self heal means it is very hard for Darius to get him low enough for a kill. Additionally, since Darius has no mobility, Trundle can drop pillar on him and usually get several hits off before Darius can get out of the way.

Hecarim Chogath can both deal with him imo.

Teh Epic Taco 551 votes

Yeah, I've played against plenty of Darius and through my experience as a level 24 toplane Chogath, Darius doesn't stand a chance against me in any of my match ups.

If you play Chogath againstDarius, you are Garenteed to win lane, unless you suck really bad, or are getting camped by their jungler.

Ive seen a Garen murder Darius. To this day, Im still not sure who counters who because of that one game.

At least Wukong can lane against him at all. Kat already has a sucky lane phase so going against one of the biggest lane bullies in the game is a suicide mission.

Kat's laning phase is strong wtf. Unlimited harass and farm potential. Her damage might not be insane, but she whittles you down like no one else.

junglerboy162 votes

That may be true for you, but I have never run up against a Kat I couldn't bully very hard, especially considering she has 0 sustain unless she gets a WotA or a Gunblade, and the general view is that she has a weak lane and suffers against ranged champions (And Darius counters melees specifically, usually better than virtually any other melee and some ranged champs in the game). She has poke if you stand around and take it, but if you play smart against her, her harass is negligible.

Because taking a q to the face everytime u cs is totally preventable.

"If you stand there and take it"LOL. she can jsut walk up to you and throw it at u or when u cs then shunpo back if she went too far.

junglerboy161 votes

My point is that the Q only tickles unless she procs the mark with another ability (during lane phase, mind you, late game her harass hurts), and playing smart is either backing off when she marks you, or slapping her silly whenever she tries to get in range (usually both are attainable unless she burns her only escape to back off, which is not a very smart move). Before her first back she has minimal lane presence, even if she spams her Q off CD.

Doesn't matter if he wants to go Wukong mid, he should have at least said so.

I called top or jung the other day, had a Kennen first pick, since I don't see many Kennens mid I said in chat that I was going to be a nice guy and assume he was top, so I went jung. Somebody else agreed with me in assuming he was top. We get into the game, and this Kennen says he's mid and tells the Twisted Fate that wanted mid to go top. I tried to explain that he never said where he was going, to which he replied that since he saw somebody say they wanted top in chat he picked kennen mid then went afk for the rest of champ select without talking, and that kennen top isn't a good pick in ranked. I decided to shut up there and focus on the game, no point in arguing with an idiot on something that had already happened, and he wasn't going to change his opinion.

Kennan top isn't a good pick in ranked? Wonder what he was smoking....

UnSeenDeath882 votes

I don't know I just wanted to win the game, so as soon as he said that I said whatever i'll shut so we can win. Still not as bad as the guy that said Udyr has an ult that stuns people. I argued that one over considering we were losing hard. And that was at the point where I was right in the middle of my losing streak, where I swear I was dropping in the the literal pits of elo hell in B5, had several people that barely spoke English. That was a rough week for me.

God I hate people like that.

95% of the time they are looking on the internet or their music track during the champ select and as such, doesn't see or read what you are typing.

On the plus side, we surrendered with a vote of 4-1(he was the 1), then I went up against him the next game. We stomped that game like you wouldn't believe. It felt satisfying to beat him so viciously after he cost me a game.

Played a ranked game with a "first time fizz" who fed 7 kills in 10 minutes and cost us the game. Play another ranked game and saw that he was support lux on the enemy team, said "They have a feeder, time to collect my easy win"

He ended the game 16/3.

And with that, I was done for the night.

I agree with everyone; his fault.

However, as a way to help you with future occurrences, you might set up a rune and mastery page for top kata. These things happen. I often pick Swain mid and end up having to (or wanting to) go top. It's just smart, especially for your most played champs, to be a little flexible on where you play them.

Not because it's fair that you play with idiots. But because you will, inevitably, play with idiots.

Kat top used to get played all the time. It's not meta, but see above message. It isn't about Kat top being good. It's about it being as good as it gets... when you play with idiots.

Yes, totally reportable.

As an aside, Kat vs Darius shouldn't be terrible. Take your trinket and place it behind your minion wave. Harass him with Q and W-E to your trinket each time he tries to pull you.

Got into a game. Was last pick. Told him I was a support main. He asks "what supports do you have". I tell him I have all of them. Tells me to go with Leona, even though the enemy team has a Morgona. I tell him it's a counter, but I do it anyway.

Get into the game, and we get to around level 5 when there's a point that the Jungle ganks. My trinket was down, he has one that works fine. I get away from the gank, but he dies. Tells me I'm a shit support, and that I'd be a shit support no matter who I went as.

Ended up something like 3/8/17 after carrying a counter lane to victory.

Moral of the story?

Rito needs to seriously invest into the idea of floggings for tribunal punishments. No, seriously, think about it. No one reads the EULA. If the Tribunal finds them guilty of being a complete d-bag, we flog them. I feel better, there's an 80% reduction in salt overnight, and we'd probably relieve a lot of strained parents of their bratty children (or stay at home 40 year olds).

I'd sign up for the tribunal knowing I'd get to stone people that instalock or whip people that blame Jungle for losing their lane.

Wukong would be lacking so much cs against a good darius player. At least katarina can farm with her q.
