3 games in a row my support has decided within the first 3 minutes to spam ping me, blow all their summoners, and start CSing and griefing because reasons. They took over 30 minutes before we lost because the other team refused to end and our team refused to surrender.
I remember one of the many reasons I moved to mid lane.
Bleh I hate griefing supports--haven't gotten one in a while
I will say though, it's beneficial to learn to 1v2 in case you get an LCS roaming support. In the past few days I've played 2 Jhin Morgana lanes and both Morganas bought mobis first and spent a lot of time mid and in the enemy jungle, to great effect. And I stayed completely even or ahead in cs during that, so it was super worth, although at one point I was lvl 11 and Morg was lvl 7 lol--not from dying, just from never being near minions.
Alistairs do this a lot too, and sometimes Thresh or Bard will.
Also useful skill to deal with a not griefing but just inting or entirely passive support
I used to run a weekly custom 5v5, and there were a couple support players only played in the weekly game, and only played passive and like 600 units behind the adc and never really learned--so lanes were an exercise in 1v2 depending on who was playing. For a long time it was hard for me to understand that sometimes in soloq your support actually contributes positively hahaha
roaming support is fine, because there's a threat they're going to come back. i play with bards and stuff all the time and that's fine. but when your support is just showing top for 5 minutes and comes back bot to ult your lane with lux laser to steal all the minions, it's like what are you gonna do. I mostly play Jinx when I bot lane so i'm almost entirely dependent on the support to not troll me.
supports who stand half a screen behind the ADC are really painful too, if you're not at least level it makes the lane so hard.

Yeah and I've found that basically if someone is bad enough to stand half a screen behind the adc, even if I say something like 'supp you can play up' or, worse, 'supp can you play even with me' they will either step up and die, cause they don't understand how to position, or take offense that I made the suggestion. I've been getting good supports recently though fortunately.

Catching up on world's , watching last night's games.
Game 2 is fanatic really gonna do this? They are looking so good. I had TES winning it all in my bracket. Fanatic winning would totally bust it, but I want to believe. Especially after they brought out singed.
Probably time to tap out of this thread until I finish this bo5
That was a really good series, even if some games were one sided.
So sad for fanatic. 3 games to close it out and you are playing so well and just can't do it. Man that has to hurt. First reverse sweep ever at world's. And again, they smashed games one and 2, and possibly should have won 3. Then they just got outplayed in 4 and 5.
Just heartbreaking. Even if tes winning did save my bracket.

Oh, I know.
I don't always have a ward up when they decide to push forward, or I do and I have the apropos thing warded and they still get me killed because they won't back off fast enough.

My brackets been looking pretty good but last I checked I was only in 3rd in the pa group. Got most of groups right. People in the pa group seem to be doing pretty good.

Hah I predicted basically everything wrong in the elimination rounds
At least this gives me a chance to change up who I think will win--I'm now giving it to Damwon instead of to JackeyLove
Debating on chagning my picks. I'm at 64 points, Doctor Ivellius's is at 66. we have the same semi , and finals picks. If I want to win I change something, if I want to get as many points as possible they stay the same.... hmmmmmm......
The client needs to show you if you have a chest for a champion or not. I play a lot of aram and this decides my trades and rerolls. Like now. I think Ihave a chest with morganna. So I tradeed. But I love morganna in aram
tossing out those traps just on pure feeling and catching him in them perfectly, truly i think it's all downhill from this moment. was so excited it worked i forgot to switch to minigun.

Worlds orbs for 200 tokens, which have skins in them, if you want skins, or champion shards (50 tokens?)+blue essence (10?) if you are still working on your champion collection.
Note that there's stuff that the 2020 tokens can be used on that's not in the store yet. (More than likely the new KDA stuff coming in 10.22.) In case that's a thing you may be interested in.

Don't use tokens on blue essence unless you're just clearing up the remainders; champion shards are way more efficient. But yes, I'd advocate for orbs. But as PMAvers notes, there will be K/DA stuff coming next patch (chromas and a Kai'sa skin).

That one looks cool. I used the rest of the tokens I have at the moment to buy 3 emote tokens and I didn't get anything all that good. Got the Ashe "was that me?" emote which is kind of cool I guess.
Is the RP store down? Was gonna grab some Harrowing skins but I keep getting error 900.

Had time for three games tonight and they were all decided by trolls and afks! Ahh!
Yesterday I tried to queue ranked, my midlane banned my jungler’s hover, my jungler typed GL and locked in Caitlyn jg, I dodged.
Switched over to my smurf (I’m fine with one dodge but don’t like losing the LP from a second dodge), was having a nice lane as Ashe/Lux into Jhin/Morgana, my support spam pings me the one time I am hit by a binding (I didn’t die) and spam pings my summoners, etc. we get some kills from a gank, I’m slightly up in cs. We hit 6, she starts pinging my ult. I type ‘bait out the shield then I ult’ cause yeah not gonna waste my big cooldown. She eventually q and then immediately rs Morgana...right into the spellshield so Morgana walks out of the laser easily. They come forward a bit, I ult Jhin, we get him low but I die to Morgana ult/binding/ign. Lux detonates E too early and fails to kill Jhin.
She then types “typical trash adc, bye” in chat after pinging me a million times (at this point Lux and I are both 0/1/2 and ahead in cs and plates—in other words winning lane). I tell her ‘ok go support roam top or mid’.
I chill and 1v2 under my tower for the next several levels, stay about 10 cs up (but with solo lane xp), don’t die. Lux roams mid and gets kills, roams top and dies and is asked to go away please.
We ended up winning but I’m kind of annoyed about it. Like it did work out but fuck that Lux man, that only worked because I am good at 1v2 and Ashe has good range and clear. And of course she got a bunch of kills while I just hung out botlane farming with Jhin and Morgana, so it looked like I didn’t contribute where in fact I pulled two of their team all early midgame which let my team do shit elsewhere (Morg should have left and matched but she was bad).

He was so busted on release. I got him from the quest and first time I rolled him in aram got an S+. I know aram's aren't an indicator, but dude was even more of a beast.
So hyped for semi finals. Rooting for G2, but not switching my pick from DWG. Sunni TES I'm less excited for though. Think TES will take it easy, but they gave up the first two games to FNC so......
love when people pick random crap like asol support, they get grabbed by the other team 1000 times and instakilled, and then it's my fault for not 1v2ing nautilus ashe as jinx or something.
just pick normal supports people, they're supports for a reason.

Worlds
Pretty chalky throughout. It seemed, watching the LEC playoffs, that Europe's two hopes (Fnatic and G2) looked incredibly shaky relative to years past. There was always a chance they would put it together in the weeks leading up to Worlds, and to Fnatic's credit, they showed up much more coordinated and sure of themselves against TES. G2, on the other hand, look a bit lost. You can put a positive spin on them having made semifinals, but they had a free pass through groups and semifinals against a massively regressing Gen.G team, but as soon as they got put up against a legitimate contender, they got sent home. I wonder if they shake up the roster at all before next season. Maybe Jankos retires.

roaming support is fine, because there's a threat they're going to come back. i play with bards and stuff all the time and that's fine. but when your support is just showing top for 5 minutes and comes back bot to ult your lane with lux laser to steal all the minions, it's like what are you gonna do. I mostly play Jinx when I bot lane so i'm almost entirely dependent on the support to not troll me.

I'll place a ward for you in the bush in bot lane, that doesn't mean I have to look at it. That's your job.
yeah so we push up so you have the freedom to ward in the kayn spot in their jg
I don't see the problem here
for reference, the kayn ward spot (also zac ward)
I don't always have a ward up when they decide to push forward, or I do and I have the apropos thing warded and they still get me killed because they won't back off fast enough.
I’m pretty sure a plate is worth more gold than them getting a double kill on us so it’s the right decision
Hah I predicted basically everything wrong in the elimination rounds
At least this gives me a chance to change up who I think will win--I'm now giving it to Damwon instead of to JackeyLove
and then you turn your computer off and run to bed because if you play any more the gods of matchmaking are going to punish you.
...I’m starting to understand why most of my games I go 15/1 or 0/10 there is no in between
Wait, this explains so much about my top lane games and why 80% of them are the latter
