I have never seen a mid Zilean use their revive

Why is it that every single mid Zilean I play with refuses to use the single ability that they need to use in order to do anything of value

They just sit there and don't use their literal coolest and most useful and important ULTIMATE ability~

Robots confuse squirrels.


People seem weirdly hesitant about using their ult in fights. Even though most of the time your ult will be off cooldown by the time the next fight happens so long as the match isn't one long fight.

80% of the time people who say they are saving their ult for the right moment, had they used their ult, would have their ult up for the right moment anyway

It's almost like people have been flamed for wasting their R so often, they reflexively hold it.

Nothing beats the pointless, panic R right before death though.

depends, sometimes they're bad, sometimes they don't want to waste an ult on someone who got picked and is just gonna get burst down again. my favorite is when it's both and they'll only waste it on themselves.

I play a lot of supp zilean and like to think I'm decent at using my ult but you'd be surprised at how many people kite directly away from you or immediately blow their escapes after they've been ulted so it can be a hard guessing game with teammates who aren't on some sort of voicechat.

I will never really get how common it is for people to lose 90% of their health and then use flash, either use it before you get caught or just hold it for next fight imo.

e: and I mean in situations where flashing away will at best extend their life for just long enough for your ult to wear off.

Played a few more ranked games tonight.

1. I am still p bad.


2. It is amazing that someone tilts in almost every game! It really does seem worse than it used to. Maybe I am just not toxic now, so I didn't notice as much before? Interesting either way

Autofill is the worst. :sigh:

I like being autofilled support sometimes because at least my team will have a sightstone and wards when I'm the support

I do agree though. I'm not very good at top and I'm an awful jungler. Nobody ever wants to take top from me when I get stuck there.

Spamming support in normals is weird because it seems about 2/10 games I get someone who demands to take support from me and then we lose every time.We also lose every time i am support. rip

Our cait gets hooked level 1 and dies, I say "well that's a GOD drat shame" and she says

"shut the gently caress up, no one is laughing idiot, everything you say is tilting" and then spends the rest of the match saying only "nope"

"nope"

I'd say it varies from region to region too. Purely anecdotal, but EUW seems (mostly) chill, I don't find myself using the report button as much, then again I usually just mute anyone the instant they blame someone else for their death, therefore I don't see the rest of their crap. NA seemed a bit more willing to flame each other, but I don't play there anywhere near as much. I hear whatever the Russian region is is pretty much flame 24/7.

Azir and Ryze are the ones that have been priority picks in pro play with the lowest solo queue winrates, so probably one of those.

Azir maybe just for the micro and the fact that he feels so different from any other champ in game. That or Riven would be my guess. Mind you I don't mean like normal riven, I mean full on memorize every single animation canceling trick boxbox level riven.

The hardest champion in the game to play is Udyr, because you have to win games despite being able to
1. walk towards people kind of fast
2. walk away from people kind of fast
3. auto attack people (after walking towards them)
