Players ignoring called positions

mazdajay··2 votes·1,718 views

so I Intentionally fed because somebody ignored my lane call. and I am the one who gets a 14 day ban(i didnt even realise a 14 day ban was possible) It was a blind game, not a ranked, and so i think a person ignoring lane call should have the 14 day ban.. I think every player faced with the disrespect of taking somebody's lane should be punished.. it ruins more blind games than anything else. i want my ban overturned.

Lane calls are a convention established by the players. They aren't officially enforced. It's a dick move to ignore them, but such is life. Plus, there's all sorts of potential for conflicting loading times to cause a lane call to be missed or mistakes to be made.

Intentional feeding, on the other hand, is fucking disgusting. You wasted the time of eight people to get back at one guy. Fuck that noise.

If you don't like how shitty lane calling is, play draft. Blind pick sucks.

All of this is correct, but I want to add one small caveat.

Lane assignments in Draft Modes are enforced, and if someone takes your role without an agreed trade, you can report it either at the end of game screen or in a support ticket.

Even more reason to play Draft Modes instead of Blind Modes!

“So I intentionally fed” everything after that means nothing to me.

mazdajay1 votes

so i wonder if i just play others' lanes from now on.. bully in on them and thats all .. I bet there would be a lot of intentional feeding going on. you miss my point.

HalcyonDweller3 votes

Two wrongs don't make a right. Feeding is never okay, it doesn't matter in the least what other people would do, you are held responsible for your own behavior.

If you want a better guarantee of getting the role you want then go play Normal Draft Pick. Playing blind pick is just asking for role conflicts.

You lost our interest in your point when you admitted of inting.

You made a post with the first sentence being “So I intentionally fed” and then you followed that up with 3 sentences of the same bs claiming you have the right to fight fire with fire, when in reality your account is a privelage and you are not entitled to such things as overturning a clearly justified ban. Truth is you had no point-you just had to let out what u had inside.. so imo just do the following next time.

  1. Dodging
  2. Just FILLING CAUSE ITS BLIND Or ya know playing draft if ya don’t feel like losing LP

Afaik there are no rules enforcing the call order in blind. If you want assigned lanes play draft.

Well... yeah. Intentionally feeding is against the rules. Just because you feel slighted by a player doesn't give you the right to throw a tantrum and ruin the game.

mazdajay1 votes

you are right. though many games are ruined through lack of courtesy

Kei1438 votes

there isn't a rule about call order in blind pick. It's common courtsey, but not a hard and fast rule.

If you wanted lane assignments, go play draft pick.

mazdajay1 votes

not so common i guess.. courtesy .. i tilt one time and 2 weeks ban ... blind match? too harsh. is my point

Kei1434 votes

Yea, you inted.

Riot doesn't take that lightly.

Game mode doesn't matter.

The Cream Reaper6 votes

lane calling is a practice that isn't enforced by riot. it's not illegal to ignore

mazdajay1 votes

illegal is the wrong term.

HalcyonDweller2 votes

Wow buddy... You're really going to pick a fight with them over word choice and semantics? Way to miss the point.

mazdajay1 votes

who are they? not picking a fight.. what is the point? just bend over and take it? from people who seem to be held in too high a place? yeah thats me

HalcyonDweller1 votes

Their point was that lane calling is not enforced in blind mode. If someone ignores calls in blind it is certainly a dick move but they can't actually be punished for it.

If you don't like it then go play Normal Draft Pick. You're level 68, by now you should have plenty of champions for it. Role assignments are enforced in Draft Modes, so if you play those draft modes then you won't have to worry about people taking your role without being punished.

All of that aside, inting is never okay. You should know that by now, being level 68.

Blind pick is for new players. The game does not teach positions in the tutorial, so a lot of players don't know what "adc" or "support" or any what any position mean, so they just play the game.

This was true for me when I'd begun playing the game back near the end of Season 1 and into 2. I was taught that going Garen with 5 sunfire's was the way to go. It was admittedly pretty fun, acting like a virtual personification of fiery death.

I didn't know about the max CDR cap when starting so I spammed Mana/CDR items because I thought you'd obviously want to continually spam abilities, who needs auto attacks?

Made the same mistake I think, lol. Also thought it was ok to just build straight attack speed on an AD carry, and the damage would just happen to be there. Also, turns out Trinity on Ashe was a poor idea. Never played a MOBA before League. xD

I used to always take Heal/Clarity. Because I thought Flash was "completely useless"

Oh. And I insisted Shyvana could mid.

Yeah. I was that guy.

IIRC, stacking Sunfires worked back then because they didn't make it a Unique ability until later. (Could be wrong, though. I didn't play many champs that used Sunfire back then.)

No, you're right. Unique's didn't exist back then, so it was easy to stack the strongest items for that champion. xD

it ruins more blind games than anything else.

I would argue salty children who int because they don't always get their way ruin more games.

Play draft pick. You're even on NA so you have no excuse by saying "We don't have draft pick/we only have it at certain times."

No one has to respect calls in blind mode, because calling wasn't created by Riot.

FOR JUSTICE1 votes

Ignoring a role call is a douche move, but its not even an official rule to follow it.

But instead of just playing whatever was left, you seem to think inting would solve the problem. Enjoy your two weeks off.

mazdajay1 votes

I usually do that.. 2 weeks ban .. too harsh

FOR JUSTICE1 votes

But its not too harsh. You admitted to inting, which is an instant 2 weeks.

Feeding to hinder your team is never OK.

mazdajay1 votes

there should be a rule. and 14 day ban. ridiculous. just venting i guess but more blind games are ruined by not self regulating lane calls.. far more than feeding due to tilt. just a thought

That's a little extreme, just because there's a disagreement as to whom goes where. As mentioned by the others, it's why we have draft. To alienate the behavior of players because you'd rather take that risk in blind is being unfair.

AeroWaffle4 votes

Riot has never enforced call order in blinds. If you want to get a certain lane/role you queue draft pick.

No.

That was fast.

sleepysithlord1 votes

lol thats really funny. also your team didnt open so they wasted their own time for an additional 10 minutes. IDK I mean I think 14 days is a bit much especially cause it was just a normal game and I have people soft int in my ranked games all the time with no penalty. Such is life tho
