"Someone Dodge"

Icangoanniewhere··39 votes·2,302 views

Yea we get it, you didn't get to go mid, but everyone gets autofilled to support from time to time, and you either ask nicely, deal with it and take your role, or dodge yourself. Don't threaten to troll and tell other people to dodge.

Quit acting like a 5 year old where everyone has to serve you. You are part of a team, act like it. Go play a single player game if you think you can just do whatever you please to screw over your team because YOU didn't get what YOU wanted

I have to admit, I'm usually pretty laid back about most things, but when someone drops the "someone dodge" crap, it really gets under my skin. My answer is always the same. "you want a dodge, you do it." And when they threaten to troll, I just prepare to mute them as soon as the match starts, and ready the report button for griefing after the match. For some reason, the people who say this never want to be the one to dodge themselves. My guess, they've already dodged so many times that they are already facing penalties for it, but that isn't my problem and I'm not about to put myself on the queue dodging penalty list just to pacify someone who isn't happy about some roll or other.

My most recent encounter with this was over the weekend in normals, when I was trying to get my second match in with a friend for the Xayah/Rakan icon. My jungler banned him out in champ select despite me having him selected. I was frustrated, since we'd played quite a few matches, and kept getting one or the other of them banned or picked on the other team, but I figured I would give him the benefit of the doubt and asked if he hadn't noticed that I had him selected. He proceeded not to say anything, but his duo partner then said he noticed, and banned him on purpose because he didn't trust me (a total stranger) to play him decently (in a normal match, not ranked or anything). I was kinda stunned at that point, and didn't say anything, but the fifth guy on the team, who wasn't with either duo got pissed about it and went off on the guy, and they started arguing and people started yelling for each other to dodge. My duo and I were just like "... this is gonna be a fun match...." I have no idea who actually did the dodging, but thankfully someone dodged. Hell, it might have even been someone from the enemy team. Whoever it was deserves a medal or something. I owe them one!

There are actaully people who troll after threatening.

There are some, but honestly, I see many more people threaten to troll than actually do it. And, like I said, if they do, I report them. That's why there is still a report category for griefing.

its sad we cant doing anything pre match yet for these kind of issues, if someone is being a douche in champ select and starting trolling/flamming or whatever and the game gets dodged we should be able to do some kind of report or report in the champ select and flush them out faster.

I've been begging for a "kick" button, for almost 2 years now. If someone is being a complete jackass and gets 4/4 votes for kick the group is put back into queue and that person has a 10 minute wait for his next game.

I would agree with that, however people could simply abuse it after looking at someones op gg and deciding they don't want to play with them.

I've had people ask to dodge in arams because our team comp wasn't what they wanted. I always tell them to do it themself, and then they either get pissy or shut up altogether.

Honestly, just dodge yourself and don't try to force others into a wait timer all because you're too lazy to dodge yourself.

Yep, this happens far too often. I play ARAM for the diversity and enjoy off-meta builds. Seeing Bard ADC is hilariously fun, but a lot of people only want "the perfect team comp" with Lux, Ziggs, Varus, Ezreal, Sona, etc. It's usually the guy that rolled Maokai -> Nautilus -> Udyr because they didn't want to play a Tank and end up either dodging themselves at 0-1 second, AFK'ing during the match, or building something completely ridiculous and running it down mid because they want the game to be over faster. Very rarely do I see them try to actually try to make the most out of their champion if they're the ones saying "some1 doge plz our tem sux."

Like you said, it seems they're too lazy to dodge themselves and want to sucker everyone else into waiting so they have a better chance at a champion they want to play. I get it that the Dodge Timer for ARAM is 15 minutes for the first one, and 30 (?) minutes for the second, but at the end of the day it's not that long of a wait for them and is often far shorter for those individuals that will often make a miserable time for everyone else in the game - unless it's a free game for the enemy team from half the team AFK'ing, of course. We also have rerolls, so if they've already spent their rolls every game it's likely they only want to play OP Champions or had some really bad RNG getting Udyr 3x in a row. I usually never dodge, the only times where it's even a thought for me is if champion select is already going horribly from toxic individuals.

One of the unspoken bonus's of playing support, is no one on your team get's auto-filled. Less salt.

The last time I said "someone should dodge" (about two days ago or so) the enemy team went 12-0 and we ff20 while they were killing our top inhib turret. Just by our team comps it felt like it was going to be pretty one-sided.

Don't always assume it's someone out of position I guess. Sometimes...well. you just know.

I think the point of the post is to ask why you don't dodge if it's that important. If you don't want dodging to happen badly enough to face the queue timer, why would anyone else want to take the timer for you? The only exception is if you're in ranked promos, and even then... it's iffy.

That's not the point of the thread. Yea sometimes you can tell your goose is cooked pretty early, but trolling and forcing other to succumb to your, well, scumminess and being a general asshat and or running it down mid because someone didn't doge is what the thread is about.

It seems like Riot encourages this behavior.

I never dodge when someone asks for it personally. 9.9 times out of 10 those clowns won't do it becuase they dodge games a lot and/or are looking down the barrel of a ban. I'd much rather make them suffer through a game they completely lament and add more fuel to their self inflicted misery, personally.

Sometimes a dodge is necessary, and you don't want to do it.

Riot discourages dodges.

If a person wants to dodge before the game even starts, and is forced to play (or suffer consequences, due to the way the system is), you are guaranteed a negative experience.

You end up leaving yourself with an ultimatum. You dodge and take the 5 min penalty plus the -3 lp, or play it out in a game which is almost certainly a loss which is a -15 to - 20 lp loss.

sometimes it's cuz of autofill that "someone dodge" is needed. Or sometimes we face an enemy comp like Malphite Diana Yasuo Kalista Alistar

The only time I've ever personally said that is when I'm in a ranked series where dodging gives you an automatic loss. We've all been there where some jackass is acting up and you just know it's going to be a quick, ugly game, and you desperately want someone to save your series by leaving.

I don't like having a dodge timer, so when some shit goes down in champ select (teammate bans another teammate's hover, or people saying they are doing X role no matter what) I'm secretly thinking, "dodge, someone please fucking dodge. Please!"

But it never happens. :/
