Hard to enjoy One-For-All

TwinkiePro·Oct 17, 2015·6 votes·1,209 views

I'm having quite some difficulty enjoying this game mode. It seems that champions that favor heavy cc, e.g., blitz, tf, malzahar or anything along those likes easily win games. It's not that playing these champions aren't fun, but playing against them. all the blitz's rushing mid and pulling a guy straight to tower with no escapes killer, 3 suppresses on 1 target locks them down with no way to do jack diddly squat, and chain cc until death brutal. hard to enjoy the game when annie's camp in a bush and insta-delete you with massive stuns, all while being more bursty them most other champions with hard cc.

too bad one for all doesn't let you ban champs

Stupid replies like that are the reason why Riot is okay with stupid ass game modes like this one..... They feel like a cat who just brought it's owner a dead bird as a gift (Also, I don't give two shits about the fact that cats really bring dead birds because they think you're a shitty hunter, most of us are aware of the fact) Point I'm trying to make is that the ignorant people in the crowd praise them for this game mode when in reality, it is and always will be "a dead bird". Bring back URF, at least you can't be pissed off in URF, too much damn CDR to be pissed off. THAT is the appropriate amount of goofy gameplay needed in a "seasonal" game mode.

One for all does allow banning, but 6 is most certainly not enough.

EpitaphfireOct 17, 20151 votes

you know that they charge for in game skins/wards/champs(unless you farm the IP) right?

In my experience, these game modes really aren't about winning, they're just about goofing around and seeing what kind of crazy shit you can do. I mean yeah certain Champs will do well, and will be common picks for it, but I'd try my best not to even think about scores or who wins or loses.

But yeah it can feel really rough sometimes. Like we found out the hard way that Singed's poison does not stack on one target. So if you have 5 Singed's being chased by 5 Ekkos, the Ekkos are only taking 1 Singed worth of damage......

That one sucked.

But if CC is getting you down, try 5 Yasuos or Braums to block that shit. Or Irelia, because Irelia is the honey badger of LoL and does not care. Try stuff, mess around, have fun.

TwinkieProOct 17, 20151 votes

I might just try the irelia one. thanks for the suggestion.

It's the nature of One For All, not meant to really be balanced because champions counter other champions. Fizz Morgana DrMundo Ezreal Leblanc work well against Blitzcrank .

TwinkieProOct 17, 20151 votes

mundo sounds like the best bet, considering getting pulled is what he wants. As for the rest, one pull and death is imminent.

Dark NephthysOct 17, 20151 votes

Personally I'm having a hard time enjoying it as well because everyone just wants to play the unfun and uncreative champions that everyone knows is broken in this mode like Blitzcrank Ezreal Nidalee Sona Soraka Velkoz Yasuo Like seriously almost every game I play one side is one of these.

I've been trying to play different champions in this mode like Anivia Braum DrMundo Galio Gnar Kindred Lissandra MissFortune Shen Zilean and it always gets out-voted by people picking one of the boring op champions.

Maybe I just need to find a group of people to play with in this mode. Anyone wanna just mess around and play some one for all with some different champions for once? My ign is Dark Nephthys

TwinkieProOct 17, 20151 votes

Me and a couple of friends did the zilean one, and dear god is it fun. considering bombs are his only damage and cc, we didn't stand a chance against blitzcrank, who literally has 3 forms of cc. 4 of us went ap, and i, well, i like to have fun, so i went ad :) anything can adc, like a zil with 28/12/12 or a malphite 28/11/16 XD. But, the more cc, or the better the cc, they will win, guaranteed.

I've been trying to play different champions in this mode like

Fuck your cancer. Zil needs to be disabled from all games until OFA ends.

kindred is a cancer champ in 1 for all too

OverpoweredSoapOct 17, 20151 votes

I have trouble enjoying it because everybody bitches when they don't get the champione they picked.

EpitaphfireOct 17, 20151 votes

Agreed, specifically the annie thing, it is just bullshit that they can literally bumrush the inhib post-6 because all they need is to make sure they have tibbers, and a stun primed, and they WILL be uncontested in the lane, 5 annies is scarier than anything else in this game, OP burst with a stun has no place in LoL in my opinion. She NEEDS a rework and soon.

ImNLuvWitATeemoOct 17, 20152 votes

lol champ needs a rework because its op in a joke game mode

nerf ziggs too cause hes op in aram

TwinkieProOct 19, 20151 votes

well, Annie is super bursty, as well with an instant aoe stun, yet everyone still complains about Veigar cage XD

7ha7guy777Oct 17, 20151 votes

Any 3rd hit effect can be stacked by every champion. Vayne is scary. Gnar vs bard is pretty fun.

OmniphonicOct 17, 20151 votes

dude blitz is a support champ. every support champ in the game has been nerfed until they can only play as support. a blitz team has 0 dps, no waveclear, 0 sustain, no jungle ability. getting beat by blitz is just bad play.

kJsOct 17, 20152 votes

blitz does a lot of damage and is highly disruptive, a blitz team can easily train hook you under tower and then run away from the rest of your team until they have their hooks back up again.

TwinkieProOct 19, 20151 votes

Exactly. and damage means nothing really, especially when they can chain shit together and slam you to hell. its not the damage, its the cc. Damage can hurt with ap, waveclear is silly because of ult and its passive, who needs sustain when you are a speed tank, and who needs jungle in this game mode?

Right now One For All is pretty much just One For Darius

No matter how much I tell people I'm awful with Darius , nope, gonna pick Darius anyways.

twinkbrainOct 17, 20151 votes

I tried out Kindred for the first time in this game mode. It was against Xin. Not fun. :P I still like the game mode, but I feel like you have to ban the OPs and then heavy CC/healing champions.

DwarvenGiantOct 17, 20151 votes

TBH, I've only played with friends so far and it was tons of fun. Probably the most fun I've ever had in League in the past few months. From what I heard, playing alone in this gamemode could be rather boring and not very fun, due to the meta in it (like you said) and the nature of negative people which you might encounter quite often in these featured gamemodes (at least from my experience). :P

Its match up dependent, I know, but generally you wont have a champ that wants to be pulled lol.

Play irelia.

IncognonymousOct 19, 20151 votes

Waveclear meta, the mode, the game. Anyone who can summon pets and can push like crazy is going to eat every objective on the map and there's nothing a deficient champ team is going to be able to do about it.
