Views on this new stupid noob strategy for play: (ADC/supp/jg/mid/solo)?

Post all your views on this new crap method of playing that has flooded the ENTIRE GAME. I personally support ANY strategy a person would have to offer, but not like this. People have been blackmailing others for too long with reports and other abuse into playing that r%%%%%ed childish strategy of 1 going top, 1 going middle, 2 nazi-sorted champions going bottom and 1 going jungle.

And the worst part is, THEY ALL ALWAYS SUCK. They never watch lanes, the jungles are worthless, and the bottom champions wouldn't know how to move out of the way of a truck if they were staring at it going 1 mile per hour for 30 minutes straight.

REAL League of Legends and other RTS games do not force others to conform to your worthless crap strategy, I've been Tribunal punished because of you stupid bully kids (these bully kids also work for Riot Games clearly) reporting people who don't use your juvenile strategy. This game has been around since before you even had a computer, IDK where the hell you came from.

Post your views here!

There's a reason that this is the setup that pros use. It's designed so that you have a good mix of damage types and sustain. Mid provides ap burst, the marksman provides ad burst, top or jungle usually provide sustain because they're tanks. The support is there usually to provide an interrupt or other cc of some kind. I'm not saying it's perfect, and that it doesn't fall apart if someone feeds, but it usually does what it's supposed to.

That being said, each role has a job, and I'm not always certain that everyone knows what those jobs are.

Junglers are mainly there to secure objectives and occasionally help you win lane, and in that order. Their priority is making sure that your team gets the objectives, not just the kills. Kills are good and can lead to better objective control, but too many people don't use their gold advantage to get objectives.

The reason bot lane is ADC and a support is because the ADC is very squishy, and marksmen have the highest late game output, so it's best to get them fed as much as possible as quickly as possible. You also don't want to run a solo lane against a duo lane. Go ahead, try telling your support to go help mid when you're Vayne trying to take on Blitz and Graves. You won't have a good time unless the other team is vastly inferior to you.

The reason that there's only one person on mid and top is because a) that's who's left over, and b) it helps take advantage of all sources of gold on the map. That's another responsibility of the jungler, to get gold advantage from the spawning jungle creeps without affecting the income of the people in lane. The reason that certain types of champions are chosen for certain kinds of positions on the map is deliberate as well. Bursty caster champions go mid because it's shorter than the other two lanes and you can easily take your damage to either of the other lanes via roaming. Also, if you die, you have less ground to cover to get back into the game. Top is usually given to a tank because tanks are supposed to have high sustain, high survivablity and generally go back to base less often. The two on bot lane are there because, with two of you, you can better protect each other.

I hope I've made it clear why things are the way they are; with this knowledge, I hope that you'll see better what each role should do and why, and maybe make you a better player in the process (because I presume you didn't know this to begin with). Most players don't necessarily understand this, and that's why many games fall apart at lower elo, and those problems with "feeders" you seem to be having probably extend from this or lack of technical skill. The way you can make up for this is to be the person that can carry a game by yourself. In most cases, you're probably not using this setup correctly. For instance, you can trace back why you lost and what you may have been able to do to stop it. If you're mid and you lose, you might go, "I lost because top lane fed." Then you can go back and ask yourself: "Could I have stopped that from happening?" The answer may very well be yes. If you're mid, why didn't you roam? Most midlaners have a way to push lane in their kit, so you could have probably pushed the wave and helped top out if they were struggling. Don't always do this because sometimes there really is nothing you can do to help, or providing this help would ultimately cause more damage than good (e.g. you can't push a wave, and you're pinned down to your tower; towers are objectives and objectives are more valuable than kills).

Guys, by now it's pretty obvious that the OP is either trolling, metally challenged, or so stubborn in his "I smart, u all dum" mentality that he cares not for logic, evidence or even other people's opinions on the matter. My guess is troll. Stop feeding the troll.

Oh, another ragey post. I take it that getting banned has been your plan all along? In which case, you're doing a great job!

If you say the meta sucks and is for noobs, I'd like to see your strategy.

Oh okay, I'm not going to read any of that though!

But yeah...I guess that's your view. Still stands that its a noob strategy though. Do post your views people! As this has been an ongoing issue where many bother others for the fact they don't follow this strategy 100% all the time by their rules.
