  I hate those people. Like the game we lost I carried our team with 12/6 and whatnot, our mundo as we were about to lose tell the other team he lost because the team sucks -_-. What the fuck is these people's problem? He thinks he's better than me? Fine, but at least have the proof to show it? I was clearly ahead of him in cap and kill, is he just so delusional about his mad skillz he can't accept the reality that he is only mediocre?

  I am sick of ranked. Sick of shitty teammates. Sick of people who play first time champs in a serious ranked game. Sick of how bad people are at this game. Fuck ranked.

  
  
  And this is a large factor of why i don't play MOBAs

  I really hate those games where someone does terrible, then proceeds to blame everyone but themselves. Granted they may have had a horrible match-up or etc., but it's not the people on your teams fault. I had one game where the ADC got mad at me (top lane) for not helping their lane. I'm not running teleport or have a global and I'm on the other side of the world from you defending my own lane, what the fuck am I supposed to do?

  If there is anything I learned, its that if you want to climb ladder, you don't want to play ADC.
  
  In my climb, I lost twice. Both playing ADC.
  
  I can say for sure it wasn't because I'm a terrible adc. I mean, I'm not great or anything, but I did really well both games. Fed, max build, steam rolling. And then the late game comes along. Positioning is important, and champs like Trist having a self peel is really great, but...
  
  If I had to make an analogy, playing ADC to climb ranked is like trying to be the quarterback in a football game, and your line is comprised entirely of kids in wheel chairs. Even if they were good at peeling and protecting, it really is hard not to be the first to die when a wukong and riven is locked on to you.
  
  I feel like it would be easier to carry a game as a support.

  Supports make all the plays. Snares, stuns, shields, heals. Would be worthless without them. It's why they get sent to babysit the person who is supposed to carry.

  My positioning is fine. It's really hard to position against the fed enemy zed who is 12/3 and either 2 shots you or 3 shots your frontline.

  Lane phase isn't really the issue. Its the late game team fights in a meta full of dive-centric bruisers and assassins. ADC is literally the most unsafe role to play right now imo, especially if your team isn't willing to peel.
  
  Supports make good peel or engagers, but they are pretty limited in how much peeling they can do. When that Zed jumps your ADC, there isn't much good you can do.

  The meta also rarely lets games even get to lategame. I've posted tons of pictures of me doing really well early+midgame. I wasnt even picking out the stomp games and leaving out the terrible ones. I can consistently do well on Corki but not when the enemy assasins are way too fed. Yesterday I had a first time Olaf go against a Poppy and lost so badly even though I was tied with cait bot.

  ^^edit: Eh, the broken leg and over the top sex factor kind of kill that one for me. I was super excited when both Cait and Vi were coming out, but I've found it hard to take them seriously. On one hand, MF is great because her 'flair' is congruent with her character. I can't find any similar reason for Caitlyn to dress like the Mad Hatter's mistress, though.
  
  Actually, I find it much easier to carry from top/support than adc. A support, played well, will get their adc fed and then keep them alive to do their job. An excellent adc on the other hand can't execute effectively without a proper team to protect them.

  So, because i used to be a poppy main and I'm finally getting the last 2 skins of hers before my collection is 100% complete, I'm going on a 2month all poppy any role athon, s3 wasn't kind to her one bit, but oh well TIME FOR 60 DAYS OF TURRET HUGGING AND NOT SEEING ONE GANK WHEN THE ENEMY IS FARMING AT MY TURRET.

  Not going to discredit you. Looks like a good streak.
  
  I'm just saying, playing adc is a huge pain in the ass right now because of the dive-bruisers and assassins overflowing the meta picks. Good to play Vayne I guess.

  I think the Vi launch was one of my favorite champion launches. That background, that theme, that song, that ass.

  Yeah. Support is the dominant side of pre6 battles in lane, so you have a lot of potential make some big plays early game. And then supports usually get really awesome utility moves that can engage or peel which can win entire fights in the mid-late game. Wards are pretty OP too.
  
  I've had so many games where I went insanely positive and fed as an ADC only to lose the game because all I was good for was following up and dealing damage. Almost want to just trade with my support at that point.
  
  Did you see season 4 changes? Supports have just as much gold as every other role now, even without cs or kills. Very strange and interesting. Can't wait to finish a Locket, Morellonomicon, or Mikael's Crucible at the same time my ADC finishes his blood thirster.
