Mute All.
People are rude in this game.
If you play TFT, you can research different Guides online for teams to build but atm TFT is still pretty experimental tbh as Riot just randomly pushed the game mode out a few months ago with no real testing.
For Summoners Rift, don’t ban weak champs.
Ban higher playrate/Winrate champs...
For instance, Ezreal might be annoying in lane, but overall he is bad in game... Where as Lee Sin is annoying ALL game and overall good all game.
My main 5 bans, when in champ select are:
Lee Sin (He’s just so Op right now)
Morde (Conq is busted on him)
Morgana (She’s just so annoying)
Caitlyn (Even more annoying AND unkillable)
Ryze (Really annoying but not like Morg annoying. Harder to fight if you are new cause’ he hard pushes melee champs and anyone with less farm abilities.)
My 5 choice picks for basic but fun champs:
Neeko. (Her voice in game, her design, her kit... I love it. She motivates me to play league when I’m tilted most because she is so Positive in game. Like seriously, her voice lines make me smile! Also, super easy after only 10-20 games.)
Kai’sa. (Something about a woman holding her own in a isolated cold void is pretty hot. Plus she’s strong.)
Ahri. (Don’t you trust me? Who doesn’t love Ahri? She’s sassy AND has some of the best skins😏)
Miss Fortune. (She’s just badass all around and easy AND strong.)
Soraka. (Safe support who does require skill but also still easy. You have to know when to heal, you can’t just spam W and Ult. She’s fun.)
