someone please explain this to me

Peace and Glory··1 votes·867 views

Why would a ranked player who has player level 30 go into an Intro-level team-vs-bots Summoners Rift (intended for level 1-10 beginners who are new to the game) and then farm 45 kills and 0 assists while completely ignoring the ingame objective and being a liability to the other four members of his team? It makes no sense to me because it does nothing for his ranking or his credibility as a PvPer. If it makes sense to you please let me know what I'm missing.

They were probably just really bored and trying something out and/or getting their First Win of the Day.

Thanks for the explanation. I dont' see why someone who is bored of the game would bother playing it, but that's a phenomenon across all MMO-style games.

Another thing that needs explaining: why would someone tell me that I "shouldn't be playing [LoL]" just because I'm not that good at it? I don't believe they're saying that I'm a detriment to my team; the idea, i think, is that only "elite" players should be allowed to play--and if that happened then Riot would quickly go out of business for lack of a player base. So I don't understand that player's reasoning, either, and maybe someone can explain that to me too.

He said was bored, not bored of the game.

As a heads up all ranked players are level 30, its a requirement to entering rank. Just saying rank player will let us know his level.

It feels empowering :)

I'm sorry if it isn't so much fun to you, but after a really shitty match, it feels good to be like "I went 45/0/0 this game."

Okay, I guess I can understand that. And if my substandard play in some bot matches is acceptable, then I guess that kind of blowing off steam is acceptable to me. Thanks. :)

Another reason would be that he wanted to enter queue with a friend, but that friend was in the middle of a game, so he might play intro bots for a quick 15 min game

I've been in co ops Intro for helping a friend learn how to play. Like these muscles :D I also help others that are just starting...

I had fun with some late night players using Morgana (who is like the bane of bots yet still fair to them) and though the match went normally, it was kinda annoying that a match that should have been 5/2 ended up 12/2 cuz her W can easily last hit people

Usually I'll do that for when I buy a new champ and want a quick intro to their abilities.
