Im getting sick and tired of being harassed for going MF, Vi, Panth support, yet my win rate right now is 50% (109-109) in ranked, i hate having to explain to these assholes that im not trolling and just like to play my champs that im good at playing, you cant have a 50% win ratio trolling, and these assholes need to be punished for picking on me, ima have to start taking screenshots and creating tickets because im really getting sick of playing this game if im constantly harassed by my champ picks

You have to stop spamming these posts. Your voice was already heard. There is not much to discuss here.

  1. There is a magical solution, play with your friends in the bot lane.
  2. Playing off meta champions** that disrupts the team's gameplay** is a reportable offense. And this goes back to point 1 if you want to avoid it.

No, actually, you can have a 50% winrate and be trolling. Trolling doesn't refer to just intentionally feeding. In fact, the report should be switched to Trolling because the punishments are dealt even when it's not technically inting.

What you're doing is a very specific issue--- people going/getting Support and picking a champion that doesn't do one of the three things Supports do:

  • Heavy CC and tank/Locket
  • Shielding and Healing
  • Artillery, AoE magic damage

Which either leaves your team without one of those necessary components, or forces the jungler to pick Ivern.

But more broadly, what you're doing breaks rule #4 "Have fun, but not at the expense of others." Picking a champion for the one most clearly defined role that doesn't fit that role, and thus forcing your whole team to pick and play around your sole choice goes against that rule.

For evidence, check out these two threads. Both Diamond +, and the Nunu was in fact the #1 Nunu in NA at the time. Your performance doesn't matter, because intentionally feeding isn't the rule you're breaking.

Remember when someone tried Nunu and Singed smite support at bot lane and they got banned, even though they are just playing as best as other supports? That's just how it is.

I would not disagree with anyone but, remember in last year's Worlds (I don't watch that so I couldn't remember team's name) when the pros suddenly picked MissFortune as support out of nowhere and it worked so well people start bringing it into ranked games despite it was considered off-meta before that?

The conclusion is, whatever we bring into the game that is off-meta is illegal, but when someone famous picked something off-meta and it worked and suddenly it becomes meta.
