Can you actually get banned for playing non meta champs ? Say i love playing ashe support and sej support. Or what i love to do is go blitz with smite and pull the enemy jungler away while i flash in to smite and secure an objectif.

YEs i do this in ranked and my win rate is better than average. Sadly i can only aford to do this in my smurfs account as i usually get harrased and reported for doing those kind of things.

So can you get banned for doing something like that ? Ive heard of some people getting banned for it. But dint you guys say you woudnt enforce a meta but clearly you are :l

no. you can play whatever champion you want as long as you play the role you are given or make trade roles with a teammate. What the singed dumbass was doing was abandoning his adc because he wanted to play jungle whenever he got support. He would steal both ally and enemy camps and even thought his team asked to actually support he refused and kept trolling. if you work with your team you have nothing to worry about

Off meta won't get you banned by itself.

Not playing your role and messing with your team will get you banned.

Playing an off-meta champion is risky. not a lot of ADC's know the synergies with them that aren't obvious.

Those with a closed mind would prefer Nami or Janna or Thresh, who fit the Safe meta pick.

All of a sudden they Get MF or Singed as supports and it tilts them, and then they flame and blame you for causing it.

For off meta picks, since you are doing so well with them, Ask if you can/should pick them, before, just incase the 12 year old behind the screen is not okay with it. XD

Win or lose, the game should be open to more off-meta picks, like Sion support or Yasuo mid etc

I tried 4 games to play jg poppy. The 5th game wasn't a dodge. I carried that wntire game and we won. Moral of story: don't be so quick to dodge

well sir, Because riot has never once defined the meaning of playing a role, and how you HAVE to play it, it shouild be no. But it's yes.
