    As for CC, you've had 3 very strong AOE cc ultimates, perfect for setting up a devastating MF's R on entire enemy team. They might have been more annoying with single-target CC, but didn't even come close with the ability to catch entire team in it. As for engage, last time I checked flashult from Sona was very, very painful, same for Wukong. It's not like you lacked initiation tools.

    Probably in a well coordinated team u could be right, still we miss a lot of HB and a frontman in my opinion.
    In a random bunch of players that team composition results in a lot of ppl being grabbed, skarner ultimated, zyra ultimated cc killed while roaming around trying to farm.
    We didn't lack initiation tools but they were much better and more, the only won lane was probably bot,
    poppy out of the lane was almost unkillable and he was ofc protecting his carries, we had noone able to protect.

    As far as I've seen lot of ppl at this elo is scared of dieing and want some big champion to stay in front to be confortable, 3000/4000 hp, this is why if I don't see someone like that in team I take nautilus/amumu or leona....if I'm first or secondo pick maybe I take sona...and then noone take someone tanky.

    A friend of mine is pissed about lol cause he says HP>all in this moment....and I guess I agree until changes.

    Seriously, fuck ranked. More often than not I'm stuck with asshats, retards or bad players in blind, but ranked is beyond a joke.

    Well, how it played out is a different matter, but a tankier team composition would hardly prevent your teammates from getting caught alone or win you the lanes you lost.

    Absolute 'tard of a Jax calls jungle, I'd already locked in as Garen having called the role at the very beginning. At the end of lobby he then says "me no jungle".

    urgh
    This, and all other posts, have made me decide not to start ranked just yet

    Also, I had this once but put against me. They 2-man topped and stomped the living shit out of me. Jax+Garen would do the same to any top champion. Try to roll with it, expect him to be a terri-bad, take all CS (he probably can't) and carry! YUH!

    Ori E on Wukong, jump in, Ori ulti, Wukong ulti, MF ulti, Sona ulti after stun. Win teamfight.

    Indeed, I would rather be in his team comp.

    Edit/PS: do u agree that 50% of the players at 1100 elo doesn't even know they can check if the ultimate of the other players is ready or not?

    I copy what I did edit up,
    "do u agree that 50% of the players at 1100 elo doesn't even know they can check if the ultimate of the other players is ready or not?"

    Mate u are doing a perfect combination of 5 champions abilities not considering any reaction by the other team,
    I'm pretty sure that If I would have written the opposite u would have found a perfect combination of abilities of the other team champions.

    It's quite simple what happened. You complain about a teamcomp which is basically in your own favor. Whether people have the ability to play like it is a different thing and counts both ways.

I honestly gave up at around 10 minutes in after seeing how bad they were. Maybe if I was on a different champion I would try, but not on a champion with a weak early game.

    I don't even understand what causes these games. I see nobody nearly as awful as these players for any of my previous matches, and then all the sudden I get these people who would feed beginner bots.
    Hey I played Soraka with Revive and CV and still won with Janna in bot lane and it was also ranked. We had Sona top and she killed the Yorick. Don't underestimate support powah!

    Well... there are certainly things that would upset me more.

    Getting annoyed of people who pick support characters, play them in a support position (bot lane with an AD), and then proceed to creep farm and say they're not playing support, 5 minutes into the game. I did get to try out Jungle Varus though.

    Just played a ranked game. ~1400 elo. Bans were ridiculous. Teemo, Syndra, Blitz, etc. Enemy team proceeds to pick everything that is usually banned. Darius, Diana, Katarina, Ezreal, Morgana.

    Im not sure who to be mad at, the banners who shouldn't be allowed to play ranked, or Riot for coming up with such bullcrap champion mechanics. And no, I was playing support, and no, my team didn't counterpick correctly. In fact what they did is counterpick diana in mid, diana went jungling. Mid lane got counter-counterpicked and didn't do well. Top lane was in top lane for 30+ mins. Saw him in team fights close to game end, thats about it. No impact on the game what-so-ever.

    Our jungler was underperforming. Playing Leona, the Morgana support shield made me absolutely pointless. And of course, ezreal carried like no tomorrow because Riot can't balance his single target damage. I would say our carry did his best. But the ship capsized way before he could make a difference.

    Really, I want to find the champion designer and strangle him. Fuck Katarina. URGHNETGQ$BNG

    edit: im very butthurt right now, no need to tell me. ;<

    I'll start with my final score 1/8/13, creep score 117, and champion: varus
    Sucks right?
    Flame me right?

    Let's start from the beginning.
    Zed "supporting" me.
    Versus urgot and soraka.

    So let's play it passively, miss a few cs etc, reach late game and see urgot fall off? Nop! Let's be aggressive! Urgot scores kills before level 4 so the "lose few cs" turns into "lose every cs or just die". Still, i manage not to get killed, i farm slowly, get a hog in an attempt to still push for that late game come back.

    Now, team view! Enemy plays aggressively, trying to win the game early on. My team keeps trying to 1vs1 xin.... The score is always double on their end, always getting more kills than giving. Their farm is also atrocious... zed 75 in the end, shen 35....
    Final clue? They are 4 friends playing together, so they just laugh at their shen going 0/13.

    You can imagine how the teamfights went... facing fed divers as a underfarmed ad carry, with a fed urgot on the enemy team.... Before the teamfights started (teamfights... mindless zerging but anyway), i had 2 deaths and my team had 18...... The game ends and i had the lowest death count... But who gets flamed? Me ofcourse...
    I'm seriously considering get a carry with better escape tools for when i'm queuing without friends... I love varus, but if my team doesn't know how to peel people off me.... god the horror!

    I if I solo queue, Ezreal w/ Flash+Heal is my preferred pick.

    Far safer than I'd normally play, but I rather be safe than sorry.

    Lol no. Just as strong damage, more utility, and tankier. She's a better pick if anything, and I love Akali.

    Blitz is a strong ban, I consider him the strongest support right now, even a good chunk ahead of Sona/Leona.

    Katarina isn't really a strong pick in my personal opinion, she is quite easily countered and in teamfights she relies heavily on strong CC backup or incompetent opponents - she only really shines in very high or very low level play, but again: That's just my personal experience.

    Morgana support, again, isn't something to really write home about either, she's not weak but there are stronger options out there, like Leona/Sona.

    I also don't consider jungle Diana as strong as mid lane Diana, but maybe I just haven't experienced enough jungle Dianas yet (,though they seem to have the same problems as other AP junglers, namely itemization that is suboptimal for jungling.)

    To me, it doesn't seem that your team neccessarily lost in the picks and bans, but without knowing your team's picks, that's difficult to say.
