TFW Your Teammate Bans Your Pick Intent

TS Media·Oct 7, 2016·3 votes·730 views

And then feeds and say "it wasn't my fault we lost. I barely jungle anyways, it's whatever."

I showed Viktor as my pick intent, have a 71% winrate and over a 4 KDA on Viktor and this guy bans her. We get into game and I say "Lucky I don't run it down mid".

His response, "What's the matter?"

I go, "You banned my damn mid champ"

Then he says he did nothing wrong, lmfao.

Continues to feed that game, muted me, called the team trash and wanted to ff by 20minutes. I don't get people.

If someone bans my pick intent unless i'm low pick on an op champion or they did it accidently, i just lock in something extremly off meta and make them dodge.

I legit only have two mid champs, annie and viktor. Annie, I use for support and I only play Viktor mid. So yeah

Then maybe you should consider learning how to play other champs for when those situations happen.

Or people could not be dicks and ban my intent picks.

Or you could learn to play other champions for when those kinds of situations happen. Not everyone who bans your intended pick is doing so to spite you. Yes some people may do it just to spite you (as annoying as that is), but if that happens then it would help you to learn other champions so you're not completely shut out in game.

Answer me this: If both Viktor and Annie are banned out what will you do then huh? Also, what if it's the opposing team that bans them and not your own team?

If the guy wants to one trick, let him. But @OP, don't you main adc? You said so on your other posts... why are you playing mid?

TS MediaOct 12, 20161 votes

:c because I've been losing too many games as adcs and unlike normals where I get plat/diamond supports, the supports in this elo are seemingly much worse. :p No offence, but just going from a high level support to a low level support made me realize that I can't get away with a lot of things that I do when I play with the plat/diamond supports. xd

I've tried a lot of other champs and I just don't click with them. I simply play viktor because he's my most comfortable champ and I can carry on him. I've never in my 50 games of ranks seen anyone ban Viktor. They only banned Viktor because I had it as an intent pick and people in Silver hate seeing people play mechanical champions... when Viktor isn't even that much of a high mechanics champ to me.

It's THEIR ban choice they can ban what they want.

TS MediaOct 14, 20161 votes

Okay, if you ban my intent pick, which I'm intent picking for a reason, and you don't have the aptitude to carry the game and we lose then that's their responsibility for handicapping their team in champ select.

Really, then if they do not ban it, and the enemy team then picks it and proceeds to destroy the team with it, then by your logic I can have YOU banned for basically forcing an open pick that WOULD have been banned.

Case and point Rengar, I ban Rengar every chance I can. I do not care if you want him, my bronze level ADC's are not good enough to see the big ! over their head or use my deep wards, so I ban him.

I'm sorry if you are a Rengar main in this situation, but as a main you should KNOW why your champion might be banned out by another player.

And ultimately, it is THEIR CHOICE to ban WHAT THEY WANT. If riot had issue with this there would be a system that locked you out of banning your teams picks, there is not.
