Sejuani enemy ban Annie our ban Ahri enemy ban Vi our ban Riven enemy ban Zac our ban

Graves enemy first pick Draven our first player selects Ezreal our second player selects

**Second player: can I adc? First player: no Me: please don't ez mid Second player: k I mid then (Everyone proceeds to tell me how ez mid is amazingly viable and we'll be fine) **

Fiora enemy pick Thresh enemy pick

Me: we really need to get some tanky/cc

Jax our third player selects Soraka our fourth player selects

Me: please don't play soraka Me: we really need tanky/cc vs them we already have 2 squishies Fourth player: soraka is good (Everyone proceeds to tell me how soraka is completely viable and we'll be fine)

Warwick Anivia enemy rounds out their comp.

Sion with few options left, I opt for the infinite scaling tank

**43:15 ** The game finally ends 26/11 with a 13/0 anivia and an 8/3 fiora. You can bet that was fun. But soraka and ez didn't want to surrender so... Ah who cares. It was just a long, drawn out, 0 fun, final series game loss. Those were great teammates who tried and I should be happy.

What they needed post game was some encouragement and tender guidance. Oh wait, they didn't take that too well.

You're right it's my fault for not carrying. You did nothing wrong. Yes, your champs are viable. You're right, comp doesn't matter and had nothing to do with our loss. snaps I chew them out with a fair share of expletives to let them know how unhappy I am was the two of them. Everyone reports me because that matters.

And so, two people who ruined a game before it even started, held 3 other players captive for an extra 23 minutes, and were still in denial... Moved back into the pool unpenalized.

Good thing my chat ban will be extended. I'm a game ruining monster for giving people shit about their... shit. I know I know. My post-game rant probably caused us to lose the game in the first place.

This post is my catharsis. You have a right to play trash. I have a right to talk trash enjoy it.

If you read the whole post, tell me what champions would make the best frosted animal crackers. Nom nom nom.

So first things first Teemo would definitely make the best frosted animal cracker. But on topic, I believe your being overly pessimistic about those champions picks. First of all, you ended up with a tank and an off-tank ( Jax and Sion ). That is a solid front line. Anything more would be excessive. Also, AP ezreal is actually a strong pick, as much as you try to say otherwise. Thirdly, Soraka is a terrible champ, end of story. Totally justified in complaining about that :D . Fourthly, and most importantly, it's not the act of flaming that loses you games, it's the entire mentality that leads you to flaming. The lack of trust and the restricted point of view. If you get stuck with odd comps, look to see how you can win with that comp, don't lament over how you didn't get your "perfect comp".

You should not have snapped at them just because they didn't pick your everyday FOTM Leona or Blitz. Don't you think it's better for them to play the champion they are more familiar with instead of playing champions just to make you satisfied, not the user?

But of course, if they were playing champs that they are new with, and brings them to rank games, they deserve a 3 month ban.....

not following meta isnt bad, espcially if players know their champ very well

unless ur in super high elo where everyone knows about all champions.....then it just comes down to picks

won a game with mid sivir who carried us against lb, had jungle tf who carried and some other off meta dudes.
