Riot Games says they will perma ban Highest Mastery Points Singed, AdellaideSkyhart if he continues to play Support Smite Singed due to it negatively effected his team mates. He has been reported a number of times because of his non-meta playstyle. Do you think he deserves to be perma banned or even constantly suspended? I hate Singed. His "unique" play style is the definition of non-meta; however, this guy is making Singed unique. Riot should not shun this kind of gameplay. He communicates with his team and he has a GREAT record. In my opinion the fact Riot made a champion like Singed and then tries to ban a Singed player is sad. honestly, it's so dumb I mean like all he is doing is something off meta and clearly, it's working just fine. After all, any ADC is screwed in season 7 anyways. Like if he were trolling I'd understand that but he clearly isn't not with that many games. There are so many people that actually deserve to get banned, like the people flaming him for his pick. They are actually doing something that is reportable. Why aren't you banning the ADC Ahri main? I know I'd prefer to have an actual adc so you should ban them too! Like is Riot making us all become meta slaves? No one said a peep about MF Support and it still ruined Soloq for awhile. I mean you might as well just ban everyone that isn't in the LCS

I have personally played with him in the past. Back whenever he took smite support and took red first. I understand the upset nature of at least the marksman that he impacted because it involved just kind of leaving them out on an island. I do also know that he is a man who is not a meta slave that also tries his best to win the games that he is in. I do not believe that he should be banned. Especially now that he is putting in the long statement and now he takes exhaust at least. He is attempting to reform his more hated behavior. Also people need to understand that whenever people play one specific champ as much as he does then you have to realize that even in a role that singed wouldn't normally be considered good for is going to be (HIS BEST CHAMP TO PLAY IN THAT ROLE) based upon the many many hours he has put into the mastering of the champion.

I did lose the 2 games i played with him, but damn I had a blast playing with him. I like some people who try things every once in a while. It would also be different if he never won any games, but he does have a positive win rate with singed over a very very large amount of games.

So Riot if you are listening, do not ban him. He is simply a man who decided not to follow the given path of the meta, which whenever he loses he gets reported for, but I mean people will always look to report people for something when they lose. They will get unjustifiably mad at a man giving it his all playing his best champion in a role where he has found success in.

I was just about to rant and say the same thing, but looks like you guys did it first. Also, riot even has a rule that says dont report someone for playing off meta. Clearly, he is not trolling and he is still supporting his team. Even when he took smite, he did gank top or mid and put the enemy jungler behind. This essentially supported the whole team and that is the role of a support, to support his team. I think its bull shit how riot is going to shut down a unique working strategy. Also, people when people in LCS try unique strategies it usually gets copied in ranked. Sometimes it works well for everyone, others it doesnt. However, Riot does not ban these individuals who are solo queing and trying the unique strategies that LCS players use. Also AdellaideSkyhart has been telling his teammates what he is going to do in champ select which is communicating to his team. Last but not least, it is not like he is leaving his adc in an island forever. He helps others teammates then he goes to lane like a normal support.

I believe everyone is mainly upset with what the Riot member told this player regarding his play style, and have assumed his punishment was due to his play style. The Riot member said he was found to be engaging in negative behavior. I'd guess he is bashed a lot and then responds in a way which is against the SC.
