I just got my biggest accolade ever! (It’s not impressive.)
The last couple of days, all of my Rift games have had people who threatened to report me. Yesterday (in a teambuilder game) the leader didn’t look for a Jungler for some reason. I was smite WW, but specifically chose top. First thing anyone said in the game (a Yasuo) was “WW go jungle or report.” Naturally I said he can go ahead. A Veigar complained that we’d already lost, and then me and a Teemo destroyed the enemy Gnar, took the turret, and took over the top Jungle. The enemy jungler went 3/17/14 - died every time he tried to go top. Yasuo fed and complained, and I made up with the Veigar. All worked out~
The other game I got yelled at for taking a Jungler’s buff when they asked me to come help them 12 minutes into the game, and then got told off for not following into 5v5s (we had Yi and Olaf top, me, a jungler, and a Lee bot… Again in team builder. Nowhere for an Orianna to hide from the enemy Morgana, Annie, Ashe and Irelia.) Tried to tell them to just keep rotating, but they loved to fight. I’m not good enough to win an equal game with anyone who knows to exploit positioning. I definitely can’t carry a game, especially as a Utility-focused and team reliant champion like Ori.
The day before that I had a traumatic experience where every single game had a Braum + Graves pairing, and they were always ragers, even when I had 0 deaths. All that, and people calling me a noob for playing Singed as… Singed, means I’ve had no real nice people in-games apart from the enemy team and the one silent non-English speaker.
So… this was surprising.
First honor thingy I’ve had since the honor system was introduced (apart from honorable opponent, but that one’s always sucked.)
The best thing about it is that I created this new account for one specific reason. “To guide teams to victory.” Not even to victory really, just to the end. No specific role or lane, just a “we did good” at the end of every game. Sooo, I called it ‘Tsurete’ because I’m unoriginal. Forgot these honor things even existed honestly. There aren’t enough of them~
So yeah, those people who never speak in a game and sometimes get some hate from the ragers on the team have made me proud.
Is it Pulsefire? Did you make a smurf solely so that you could have an expensive skin without it ruining your performance?
I’d totally be up for a fun match btw. I did mean Fantasy League though
