Could champions be just a little bit smarter about how they use AOE abilities?

I'm not asking for much. Just if Cho or MF has a choice between ulting a single person, and ulting the entire rest of the enemy team... they should strongly prefer the latter.

Same should go with braum blocked in the direction of a melee assassin that isnt targeting him instead of the longrange hypercarry.

They just need to be smarter in general. Don't know how many times I lost because my ranged carry walked straight into the enemy backline or switched targets leaving an enemy champ alive with 20 hp.

Well let's start with under standing that Chos ult IS single target....lol.

Ummm that would kind of defeat the point of using proper tactics to deal with enemy comps.

If by "proper tactics" you mean "pray that cho happens to target the wrong guy this time", then yeah.

Characters target based on position. You use decoys specifically for champs like MF and Chogath. That's the whole point.

How?

The same way you deal with assassins?

Abuse their targeting algorithms to decide who they're going to target.

If I see MF or Cho, I'm gonna place someone tanky near them and everyone else away from them. They'll target that person.

Similarly with assassins, you set a tank as far away from them as possible and the assassins will target them instead.

Every unit and every ability has some way of targeting, and there are proper tactics you can take to counter them. I'm trash at and dislike the mode, but even I know how to use a freaking decoy.

That might take care of the first ult, but not the second+. After ~20 seconds, enough chaos has ensued that initial placements are pretty worthless.

you genuinely should not be playing rounds that long with comps involving MF and Chogath.
