My Roaming Teemo Support Isn't Bannable

RiotWookieeCookie's comment from discussion "Nightblue3 gets his teammate banned for playing roaming teemo support thanks to his 'riot friend'"

Riot Wookie Cookie is the Top Hancho for Player Support. Although his claim for my ban was playing it only when streamers are in my games is a complete bs reason (as 4 games later i played with nightblue and cutie and went leona) The strategy of playing support in a different lane is not bannable. Just wanted to clear that up for everyone on the boards. I played it before the ban, and continuing to play it now. If you agree or disagree you should let your voices be heard and have a riot clear this up :)

We had this same problem with proxy Singed and Smite/Support Nunu. Every one of them is a case of someone saying, "I have this gimmick I enjoy. I'm going to ride that gimmick for as long as I want to and there's nothing you can do about it." The guy playing Smite/Support Nunu even explicitly said he did not ever have a responsibility to his teammates to do - or not do - anything. I even asked what he would do if he had a Vayne ask him to not play the strat on the basis that she's not great at 2v1 and his response was basically "screw that guy."

That's what your situation comes down to. League is a team game and it needs to have some level of prearranged understanding for ranked solo queue to work over any extended period. Watch a game of pickup basketball that isn't just some kids scrambling around and you'll find people playing traditionally understood roles. Maybe not well, but they're playing them.

Now, that's not to say there isn't room for experimentation in solo queue, just that people go in with certain expectations. Sometimes you can get them to try something different. Sometimes you can't. The common thread among the gimmick players is their indifference to what other people want. Have you ever seen your ADC struggling and rotated to help? Has someone asked you to not play the strat and you accommodated them? Has the team started to fall behind and you swapped to a more traditional playstyle? If the answer to these questions is no, then their frustration is absolutely justified because, at that point, you aren't experimenting any more. You're just screwing around in ranked.

The hallmark of someone who is truly trying to win is adaptability. I'm not seeing that in your play.

I'm going to quote Thefrostyviking since he summs it up perfectly and you haven't responded to his comment on your other thread.

{quoted}

Now i shall start with the admission that i have a severe bias against you OP, i absolutely disagree with your entire strategy, but i will also give you an as impartial as possible explanation as to why i think you got banned based on what i learned when trying to figure out what that entire deal was about.

The main problem with your strategy as i heard and saw was that it feel into exactly the same track as the old Singed&nunu support cases, severely lacking communication for a strategy that greatly affects how your teammates ought to play.

There is a difference in talking to people and talking with them.....and here is the second problem.

You apparently went through with your strategy even when people didnt want you to, which is seriously not cool at all, you ought to respect people wanting to play normally, heavens know we can use more of those people with all the actual trolls around.

Dissing their opinions entirely for the sake of your own fun is just being an asshole, its not how you are supposed to play in a teamgame.

A short exempt from the summoners code :

You completely ignored the concept of communication, you went through with your strategy even when it adversely affected one if not several of your teammates and ontop it all you dont seem to be realizing this at all?

The fact that you gave many people a really bad experience by playing the way you did? Riot likes when people play to win&have fun, but not so much when it happens by screwing their own teammates over.

Its exactly this kinda stuff that got the singed&nunu banned.


Now back to my own absolutely subjective view, that original video? Its a perfect example of why your strategy was awful.

First up, sivir was left completely helpless, Sona&Taric were pushing down her T2 tower like 8-9 minutes in and they started working on the inhib tower about 11 minutes into the game. Botside jungle was completely lost.

What had you accomplished in the meanwhile?

No towers, Irelia had 1 kill and a 2 deaths while TF had 1 death and 5 assists, enemy top and jungle were snowballing right out.

TF was down on farm? Yeah......Not anywhere near enough to compensate for a snowballing enemy botlane with a serious CS lead on their own.

Now NB3 was being a toxic asshat that went too far with a lot of the stuff he said, but Sivir? As i see it her tilting and just quitting after 11 minutes of trying to 1v2/3 botlane is nothing if not understandable and reasonable.

Seeing Nightblue tilt because he could not gank botlane or midlane while heca snowballed? Also understandable.

And why did she have to endure that? Why did nightblue go down that road?

Because of you, not so nice sir OP, your strategy is the very clear cause of why things happened as they did there.

I wish you a good day.

Get off you spammer your permanant ban is imminent.

None of us care. It's over, as are your two minutes.

Again, that's great, go play your strat. However now it doesn't seem like that's what you care about, all you care about is using the whole situation for attention.

How many times have we told you that it's not the play style and strategy that got you banned, the fault is with your communication.

Plus this is 6 months old.

Okay, look man, you need to stop with this drama. You can play roaming Teemo support if you want you, but you can't do that against your team's own will.

You got 4 option here, batman: 1- accept that you made a mistake 2- change your strategy of playstyle 3- don't be full of yourself 4- duo with an ADC who can handle a 1v2 situation and agrees with your Teemo support stuff and play. BUT ALSO, if the rest of your team like mid lane and top lane agrees with you.

Bonus option would be all 4. It's literally simple as 1+1. All this is bringing to you now is negative attention. Which makes me curious to ask, are you one lonely dude or what?!? (serious question btw)

Why people act like he is the victim? He is one of the many trolls who destroy the game they make the game 5v4 and some times the team carry them cause as 4 they are better than the enemy team and this person gets some wins and he call that “strategy that works” hell no he is straight up trolling sitting afk in lane being useless letting the game with no jungle or support that mean no real coverage of the map objectives solo Laners being underlevel cause share experience and the lanes struggling to be even! So what exactly he bring to this game? Nothing he intentionally make the game 5v4 forcing his team to pretty much give up cause they can’t do nothing! We all have this trolls in our games nobody like people who destroy games and call it “off meta strategy “ if it’s a strategy tell me what that strategy provides? Oh yeah nothing! At least the off meta singed make sense cause singed is known for his proxy feeding but he doesn’t destroy the laners it doesn’t let the map without wards or objectives control and doesn’t make the solo laners under level for me he should have been perma banned! And I don’t care about nb3 but I think we have enoug trolls in this game going unpunished cause “off meta” bullshits we don’t need to promote it as something positive! It’s different playing AP Warwick and different to play AP Riven! AP Warwick May not be the best but it’s ok but AP riven it’s str8 up trolling! And what this person do it’s straight up trolling! And it’s obvious if you watch his stream he never try to win he just want to get reactions from his team and laugh ! This is a sad troll!
