If you regularly duo and you both go bot im just gona give you some advice. Stop crying like 5 year olds if you dont get bot. Your not obligated to get bot lane just cause you duo. Its not different then solo queue. I dont get no special treatment why should you? Like sure maybe a duo bot may usually have better communication. But that does not mean you are obligated to get it. Please stop trolling games if you dont get your role

While it's true that pick order still rules if you want to insist on taking one of those roles you can... but consider that the bot lane duo is being matched with a higher MMR team than their actual MMR (to adjust for the presumed teamwork they will have). If you push them off of their main roles, into roles they are less comfortable with in situations where their communication is less important than in botlane, they will probably do badly. When they start feeding, it's not because they are trolling you, it's because they are out of their depth because they were matched with an MMR adjustment that -assumes- they are a coordinated pair.

You can do what you want, but you might have a better chance of winning if you let them have their lane.

I always leave bot lane to duos. The reason is, the only reason duos work is because they have superior teamwork and communication. That's it. If the enemy bot lane is duo as well, and yours is not, it is a gigantic advantage assuming you are at your correct elo (and you are if you are stuck in it).

See i have found that most duo bot lanes get crushed, begin feeding & then blame the jungler!!! I cringe when i see a duo bot lane, as an adc main if i pick before them i take my adc and let them B*tch, or dodge.

When my friend and I que up we never go duo bot lane because we don't have the synergy to be in the same lane. However, when we do different lanes we do really well.

Whenever I duo with a buddy of mine we rarely go bot lane unless we are towards the end of the pick order and we can see that one of us is going to be bot lane anyways but we prefer to go some combo of jg and mid/top because that way the Jg has a way to get 1 lane ahead and try to work from there. Most of the time if you can quickly get Top ahead they can fend for themselves and if they get banked we just take dragon

wrong duo bots are fucking horrible, sure they have communication but I'm pretty sure if they're 0/2 they would go duo afk whenever I see "DUO BOT" in champ select I tell them I'm ADC when I'm higher pick. Go troll all you want, since I'm here not to win, but to learn. /rant

Or don't gimp yourself by duoing in bot- the least dominant lane in the game.

Take a solo lane and jungle and camp the shit out of your buddy. Then roam together. Works better if you don't pick Darius and Shyvana for that combo (synergy helps).
