i was "reported" for this. (not punished)

SwiftKitten88·Jun 14, 2017·48 votes·3,457 views

no punishment was issued.. and i don't expect there to be as i did nothing wrong...

but...

i hovered support in an unranked game (a champ i have lvl 6 mastery with and am 1 S token away form lvl 7

my adc to be instantly bans lux

because of this i choose to pick a support i DON'T know how to play . rather than one of the other 2 i play ( i already have lvl 7 mastery on and )

well unsuprisingly i didnt do very good on my first time janna in idk how long... i think i played her in aram once?

and my "adc" says he is going to report me after the game for "inting"

i didn't int... i legitimately had no idea how to play her.. and i did bad as a result...

i did CHOOSE to pick a support i DIDN'T know how to play.. but honestly.. this isn't ranked.. soo

yeah... so based on your own opinion... did i do anything wrong? or report-able?

unranked is for practicing champions. That adc was just a jerk.

You weren't even in the game how would you know if there was even flame ?

I actually tried to surrender to get a new team. Just asked Janna to leave lane or something because it was BAD

so i don't even have a name now? I'm just "janna"?

you banned my support.. i GOT lvl 6 on lux AS support.. not as mid..

i would technically already have lvl 7 on her but i ended up getting one of my S token on my smurf account.

in so all reality im a lvl 7 lux support.

you want to check my match history for janna?

You banned their hover, they'd be pretty ticked. You were the one with the shitty attitude; shitty begets shitty, man. Did you expect him to thank you?

Of course he was rage posting. I mean, anyone would. Besides, were you really any better? Did you carry hard? Were your KDA and CS tops? When you were criticizing... were you beyond criticism? Or were you just passing the buck onto the next worse guy? Cull the slowest in the herd, right?

See, the thing is you make it seem like you want to pawn it off on him; but you could've just not banned the hover, you could've asked-- "I don't really want to face enemy Lux, is there some support you're also good with?" No, none of that happened I imagine-- when so many of League's problems could be solved just by using some words. Not even big ones! Little ones! Six letters or fewer! I bet you could cheese it down to four or three per word!

Realistically, it was a stupid move and it sounds like you lost your game. If it didn't, then what a relief! On the other hand, you could have both shut the fuck up and this thread would never really have existed in the first place. So many problems, ironically, could be equally solved by total silence.

It's always that ya gotta be 'right', no matter what you're doing. Even when you're just being a dick, it's gotta be more right than the other guy.

To be fair, Swift, you probably should have announced it was practice or asked for tips and builds or something. It seems like a response in this case-- not that either of you are worthy of report, you just look like goddam idiots.

Thank goodness this was a norm. I feel bad for your other three players. Who still totally exist, despite your soap opera here.

Absolutely! In fact, power to you.

Just don't be shocked when your silent ban of hovered champs gets a shitty reaction, y'know? This isn't 'freaking out,' you made a deliberate move against that player. They replied, that's all.

Lol are you serious? "I not only admit to specifically banning my ally's champ, but I declare my intent to do it again in the near future!"

LOL. The instant you see someone ban your hover, mute them. Make sure you mute them the instant you get ingame - this person wants to decide how you play your game, and is definitely (already) going to be toxic because of it.

Never hover non-meta or unpopular champions. Narrow-minded players are afraid of everything that doesnt fit inside their tiny meta slave mind.

Oakleaf RangerJun 14, 20172 votes

Playing non meta means your playing something known to be inferior. I dislike it because i understand its bad and fear that the enemy knows how play around it and take advantage of it. I wont ban out your pick though but i wont be thrilled about it either especially if you start feeding on it. This is why I stay away from bot lane.

Because it's their goddamn choice what they play. It's not your place to try to force them to do what you want. Get over yourself.

Take a listen to the first 10 or 15 seconds of the video linked below. You seem like the sort of person who could use that wisdom.

AlienPrimateJun 15, 201712 votes

I play only Taric who has 1.8% pick rate which is almost half the pick rate of the next lowest support champion, Zilean at 3.5%. Does this mean Taric is known to be inferior and I'm gimping my team's chance of success even though I have 64% win rate on 50+ games using Taric in ranked?

Would you rather I play Taric who I have over 300k mastery on and over 60% win rate in ranked or a support thought to be good who I either have never played or haven't played in over a year?

Xion The XIVJun 15, 20175 votes

Are you really that stupid? Non Meta picks do not mean they are bad. It means these champions were in the LCS so metaslaves like yourself refuse to think for yourself on who to play. Instead of mastering a champion you will constantly switch to what is "Meta" for that patch and then constantly switch.

3TWarriorJun 15, 20171 votes

I played KogMage mid once and had a (I think it was platinum but otherwise fairly high ranked) Lux one trick as my opponent...back then, they actually complemented me because my strategy was successful, even though they got to destroy me as on that day, I was disconnecting like 30% of the game

I was forcing them out of lane with a build dedicated to spamming spells and not necessarily optimal stats, but if I lost even a tenth of a second, I was often screwed...they even noted that my champion was frequently just walking back towards base

ill only ban a champ that a teammates has hovered IF they are last pick and dont bother tryin to get someone to pick up the champ for them.. HOWEVER with the new banning system sometimes there is no time to realize who is wanting to play what if u just insta ban or if the other person doesnt display their intentions in time..

Your ADC was a prick

Deep Terror NamiJun 15, 20179 votes

Unfortunately this thread has turned into nothing more than shaming, blaming, and levying accusations towards the OP or the players involved, so I'm locking it now. Please try to be respectful with all the comments; if a player was violating the rules in-game they can submit a report and otherwise should not be engaging each other in toxic arguments about it. Issues beyond that can be brought to Riot's attention through a Support Ticket.

Oh hey, it's almost as if banning teammate's pick intentions is a silly thing to allow.

FairyfleurJun 14, 20179 votes

It can be acceptable if that pick is highly contested, and your teammate is not first pick or can trade.

UnvictusJun 15, 20171 votes

I agree, but in this case the player intentionally did it with no other reason other than to piss the OP off

Can't make that a general thing - sometimes it's better to ban an OP than leave it up to be picked one of the last picks on your team if nobody can pick it and trade it to them.

If you were unable to ban hovers, there would be a LOT of unhappy people in Ranked, because they'd have to face OPs that their team wanted to play but didn't have get to them.

{quoted}

Yeah well I have a ban and I will use it how I please. I don't apologize for banning Lux and will probably do something similar again in the very next game should the urge arise. The bans are allowed to be used that way and since they can be ... I'll do it if I feel like it.

I'm pretty sure that someone from Riot has stated that a pattern of intentionally banning champions that your team is hovering can be reviewed as a potential bannable offense. Just keep that in mind while you troll your team's P/B in Normals.

That's kinda the point. The option will be taken away, but it won't be because they changed the banning system, it will be because you can't play anymore.

You don't change a solid system because of a few bad apples, you just systematically cull the bad apples.

3TWarriorJun 15, 20172 votes

they might basically be a black knight(not sure if it's a real term but i'm referencing white knight) but basically the player uses something that's wrong with the game until Riot takes action

or they get a sick thrill from banning other people's pick intents or something crazy like that

6SfoolJun 15, 20176 votes

But..... If they ban lux support you're supposed to go Fiddle. 10x the troll, 15x the killstealing.

And he's still a viable support in all honesty. He's probably more viable there than he is the jungle right now.

It's actually a reportable offense really. Though, in the end, its how Riot interpret the rulings in each scenario really.

Are you kidding? That's like saying "if they didn't want you to kill people they wouldn't make weapons. So therefore you could just murder whoever you want and not get in trouble". Not to mention if you reported him for supposedly "inting" then he can't get punished either. Even if it was intentional, which it clearly wasn't. Because by your logic dying in league is a function of the game so if they didn't want inting to happen then they wouldn't have dying in the game, therefore nobody can get in trouble for inting cause Riot intends it to happen. Don't you see how ignorant and messed up that sounds. Think before you talk kid.

Glory ln DeathJun 15, 20172 votes

If Riot didn't want inting in the game, they wouldn't have made Sion's passive! Clearly inting is intended as a viable strategy!

NinjaGuy69Jun 14, 20175 votes

yeah... so based on your own opinion... did i do anything wrong? or report-able?

You picked a legitimate support. You may not be familiar with Janna but at least you didn't rage and troll pick a champion that isn't a support. I don't see anything wrong here.

InsteadJun 14, 20175 votes

Who was the adc on your team? I see one Janna game in your match history and the closest thing is a Ziggs with heal lmao. If it was him then you can rest assured it's him that's retarded.

RákãñJun 14, 20175 votes

The only problem is that everyone lost laning phase hard. Also mentioning, your highest ranked member was the silver support and their highest was the gold ADC. While the rest are bronze or unranked. I also kind of find it funny on ADC pick Ziggs and he banned his support's Lux.

Bot lane Ziggs does the best with strong poke supports and he sucks with traditional supports like Janna really. Lux would been the better support over Janna in those standards.

He only died 5 times in a 20 minute game. Remember the report is for "Intentional" feeding, not having a bad game feeding. Also, looking through your match history, you had your feed moments too. We're all human, no one is perfect.
