My wonderful game back into ranked

YT xXTechWolfyXx·5/20/2019, 9:46:06 PM·2 votes·2,257 views

I decided to get into ranked again and was greated with this wonderful person on my game back to ranked

In champ select he hovered yuumi so my friend who doesn't like yuumi and thinks shes trash looked him up and he had a 25% winrate, going 0/10 in his last game. so to save me a insta loss I banned yuumi cause i think shes pretty good in the right hands but this guy is obviously not the right hands. He then locked in nocturne and at first said he was going to take my role he instead went top and we had 2 people top leaving our adc without a support and against a very oppressive lane as kallista.

Needless to say we lost horrible being able to do nothing in teamfight and having absolutely no map pressure bot side. our mid was fantastic and we won all early skirmishes but when i came to teamfight not having a top support or adc with enough gold was horrible

he throughout the game was tempting us to report him and saying "what do you think riot is going to do? nothing" I can see getting mad when the champ you wanted to play gets banned but outright troll picking and then costing us the game is a douche move I personally have given up in games but not to the extent of literally trolling and making everyone elses game suffer.

I was foolish to ban his champion shame on you

I stopped reading after you and your friend decided to play Communist and strike fear into others that they can only do this, or that or this or that.

TL;DR: Two guys in silver who thinks they're mad stuff trolling their team in champion selection to only be retaliated with their troll back at themselves. Morale of the thread: Don't be a dick, you won't choke on one either.

You are correct. Riot will do nothing about this.

You will also get plenty of people who will claim that "you were trolling because you 'banned his champ'". This is simply not true. You just banned a champ that you did not want to play with or against which is why the ban phase is there.

The way this person reacted is the problem and I have had similar reactions and worse in recent history. It used to be a consistent thing with Yasuo players but it is a less common occurrence now with them and a way more common occurrence with "Yuumi mains". Not really sure how you can be a main on a fresh champion but that is for another discussion.

To give you an example, I had a player freak out because someone banned yuumi so they followed that person around the jungle, stole camps with smite, intentionally fed a bit, left the game after 3 mins stating that "they wanted to hold us hostage", came back and made us wait until 20 to surrender. Opened a ticket with Riot, no ban. You basically have to hope that these players continually int without really trying to damage the opponent and get way behind in levels for the bot to do something. My recommendation is encouraging this behavior by saying things like "just ignore them and try to win". They want attention so this will only escalate their attention seeking behaviors.

Lol there is nothing you can do besides locking in a troll pick and forcing a dodge, disgusting trolls will never be sated...
