I just lost my promos due to having to dodge in champion select

Celestial Lion12·Sep 29, 2017·2 votes·867 views

I hover miss fortune our jungle (who hovered yi) says are you going mf shes the worst ADC in the game right now. I say dude just let me play. Yi then gets banned by the enemy team and he proceeds to lock in bard jungle and says i'm going to feed report me i don't care. I dodged at the 1 second point to avoid him therefore losing my promo series so the other 3 people on my team might have a fair game.

Sorry about your promo.

Personally, I would call his bluff and play the game out. Even if he did int, I don't want to lose my chance to report him and I would lose my promo either way. Your other THREE (you meant 3 right?) teammates weren't worry enough to dodge themselves...

yeah i meant 3 and i just edited it

I agree with this. You're losing the game for sure if you dodge. If you stay, you may still lose, but you may win. And if he ints? Report his ass and get him punished.

part of it also was he was being a huge jerk in champ select and i didn't want to deal with him for a full game

this is untrue. you can still manually report via a support ticket. you dont need to play out a game to report someone being toxic in pregame chat

Congrats, you let him win. He got what he wanted.

When someone does this, ALWAYS call their bluff. They're bluffing about 95% of the time. Ok, I pulled that number out of my ass but they're still usually just bluffing and will play seriously or dodge themselves if you call them on it.

If by rare chance they do intentionally fuck up the game then report them on it. Getting that instant feedback report will help reduce the sting of having your promos fucked up.

i went down to the 1 second point before i dodged

Tbh I'm surprised why you dodged at all. I mean yes okay to give your teammates a better next game but when you are in your promo I wouldn't care for that personally. Worst thing that could have happened is that you lose anyway, but he would have lost LP aswell and maybe get a ban for inting. Best that could have happened to you is that you would have actually won the game. Never give in to champ select terrorists, if you give in they get exactly what they wanted.

this this this and this. I've won some pretty silly games before including a 4v5 against a lategame comp once we hit lategame because we prioritised better.

well mf isnt the worst adc she is like top 3 worst though Its funny how you can pick a subpar pick

But then when your ally goes bard jungle that is not OK XDD

VoidStaresBackSep 29, 20174 votes

The issue wasn't the bard jungle, the issue was the player stating his intent to feed.

Celestial Lion12Sep 30, 20171 votes

the funny thing is i went MF the next game and got a pentakill and won the game Here is the replay of said penta https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTs5vySbLCs&feature=youtu.be

Unless A marskman has bunch of zeal items in its core build then that adc is a subpar adc

Except sivir and jhin they are quite subpar regardless

Lethality ad carries are bad.. Trinity ad carries are bad (by the botlane standards) this is why you see corki mid and ezreal jungle.

Bassicly if you are playing botlane

avoid sivir unless your teamcomp is full of juggernauts (which are bad pick themself... might want to dodge at that point) avoid jhin unless you are crazy.. it can work with another poke support. Jhin dps wise is low utility wise is ...ehm at that point pick ashe kalista even jinx..

avoid ezreal adc because he is better jungler avoid corki adc because he is better mid

I personaly also wouldnt suggest varus due to jinx existing..

Mf can be a good pick but you need to have a sustained damage champion in a team (Fiora yasuo cass ori those arent to rare though) In low elo she also works with wombocombo comps

Celestial Lion12Sep 30, 20171 votes

If you go the crit build on MF she has amazing sustained damage, essence reaver makes it so her w active is never down so you have a constant 55% attack speed steroid her ult gives you great aoe sustained damage and come late game with some cc you can just shred an entire team. if you go blood thirster you can kite to holy hell if they can't pop the shield, and on your first auto with stattik shiv and passive you can potentially do around 900 damage as shown in my video when i flashed to kill tristana

I've always hated Jhin's immobility, but his damage is really not that bad, and paired up with a snare/stun support, it's a good chance that you'll win lane. I'll agree Sivir isn't in the best spot atm.

I can guarantee you, the whole community will change their mind when a pro-player wins a few games with her. Just like how everyone started going ape-shit about MF Support & Jungle Ezreal.

PoskeSep 30, 20171 votes

What would that banphase look like?

10 ad carries banned?

DrCyanideSep 30, 20171 votes

Why not? Everyone else in the Pro scene just serves to compliment the team's choice of ADC anyway.

DenevielSep 30, 20171 votes

This lead again to the prob of having a report system in the pick section. Too many game are screwed by ppl instalocking other position or going on troll pick cause their one got banned
