Is it meta? video made every games griefing allowed?

I literally can't play a ranked game to have a better starting rank for season 9 without getting griefed because the ''Is it meta?'' video became a meme I just got hard grief 2 games in a row in RANKED 5v5. By the way those were my 2 1rst ranked in several days and because I am defending myself I get chat restricted because 1 guy decided that he was more important than me. It's not my fault if I get super frustrated because a video went live with a Diana using 6 wits end and people decided they could abuse of that even more than what the video shows.

I do not agree with ranked trolls and people should get a punishment for griefing not the people defending themselves.

At start i found this video funny and looked like a great meme but people are doing even worse in ranked because ''preseason''.

I'm sorry if it seems like I don't think clearly because of my frustration but I am pretty sure that I'm not the problem here.

oh and btw back to honor lvl 1 being locked because of some other people.

? You missed the point

it's encouraging new players to find new builds

funny thing is that there are builds that aren't discovered by most players of certain champions that are relatively just as strong as whatever the meta is for said champs.

A good example of this in the recent past would be bruiser graves when everyone was building lethality, on the lethality interaction nerf graves mains went to that 'trash bruiser build' that dominates meta today

Another one would be tank karma, which while known, was commonly put aside for spell pen support karma

attack speed/on-hit teemo is just as strong as his core mask builds with aery

tank ekko is only within a few % points of assassin ekko, same story for bruiser diana.

Ezreal mains seem to always use klepto or electrocute when aery is quite viable

And while it's a meme, lethality 1 shot burst vayne is still rage inducing and is more or less the same impact

yea this is why im kinda avoiding league atm when i dont have friends to play with. the video encourages people to troll and try new builds which imo trying new builds is fine... if they make sense

Off meta is not the same as trolling.

Just because people are going off meta doesn't mean they are griefing as well.

Because of other people? so if you didn't flame them would you still get banned? Man up and accept you fucked up and took the troll's bait, happens to the best. Learn from it and move on. If you expect people to demonstrate exemplary behaviour for you to act accordingly you will have a very bad time.

Idk what the video is but im pretty sure youre incorrectly placing blame. For your own good you need to accept that it is YOUR actions that resulted in a punishment, not someone else's.
