Two Sayings I am Sick of Hearing

"It Works" and "It can be abused"

I am tired of hearing people in my low elo games telling me their weirdo pick "works" and then getting steamrolled. I am sure it works in a blind pick or team builder game here and there but please keep "it works" out of ranked especially if you already have low mechanical skill.

Next. There is always someone when a good idea is given in a thread that says "it can be abused." Yeah, no ****, everything can be abused in one way or another. There will never be nice things if you don't implement something that may be abused by a small few. Who cares if a few abuse it while it helps the mass of us out. ffs, water can be abused (waterboarding) so should we get rid of all of it?

I thought at least one of them would be something Yasuo related.

Around here (PB&M board), at least, the "it can be abused" argument refers more to things where the abuse case would be a) easy to do, and b) an objectively worse outcome than what already exists.

And from me, it's intended to follow along with (or just to mean) "put some more thought into how you would handle/address/prevent this abuse case, because if what we have is unacceptable, that should be moreso."

Though, in all fairness, I'm not always as clear about that as I could/should be.

Low elo you can play literally anything and win. You should play the way you want, and let others play the way they want.
