Think of my grocery store example here: same ending, different responses.
It's much worse, actually, as the example that started this conversation exemplifies. I think a lack of communication is responsible for a significant portion of the hostility that League of Legends is famous for. I'm quite sure, as an example, that if the person had claimed mid and then someone higher up said "I'd really like to play mid, sorry," there would be much less frustration.
Yes a different response in which the person took it at face value instead. It could have just has easily the other way in which the person could have taken it even worse since using parents as an excuse is generally poorly received if the proof is readily available. Not to mention there generally isn't a mom in the car. It'll pretty much come down to either I really want to play x role/I'll suck/feed in y role. Were it to tie back to your grocery example, the person cutting in line basically just gave out that he cut in line because he felt like it.
I do agree the person in the starter example could have typed in something earlier as common courtesy. But there is some value in the pick order. That there may be certain scenarios in the grocery store which allow for exceptions,doesn't mean that lines should exist.
I feel like the main point is being missed somehow.
Exactly what point are you trying to prove overall, that you started this argument in regard to? It sounds like in general, you're trying to come up with a defense for people not doing basic, polite, trivial human interaction with talk about "proof" or "yield".
Wait DA has Quinn? niiiiiiiice
It's obviously better to communicate, but if it falls through (and it can, especially if 4 and 5 both main the same thing) a "sorry, dude, pick order" seems to help redirect resentment away from you for being "greedy" and toward Rito's sort algorithm or community standards in general.

what is leagues oracle
Oracle's Elixir used to be available on Summoner's Rift, but is now only an option for maps like the Howling Abyss. The red trinket is a sort of iffy substitute.
If you mean the hero/heroine Oracle, I have no idea. What sort of abilities are you looking for?

well he needs to make one hero invisible and take no damage for 9 seconds with a 20 second cooldown
also can make someone magic immune and purge all stuns on low cooldowns
also a nuke for enemies that heals allies that can be cast every 3 seconds
That sounds powerful. Morgana has a shield that can negate CC at least. There's a support item that can remove CC possibly, but I don't play support enough to be familiar with it.
I heard there was a DOTA 2 champion (Oracle?) who could load everyone up like a train and teleport them to another lane. That sounds funny, or a way to teleport your teammates into a volcano if you did it wrong.

You don't get level 2 off it.
Doesn't Dragon wait to spawn until like 2:10 now? You could already practically be done with a large buff and level 2 by then.
Not quite. Opiate reduced pick order to an unnecessary rule in place to deal with poor communication and spoiled children.
First and foremost respecting pick order and communicating aren't mutually exclusive. Second, in his scenario the other player could simply switch to support. Let's say both players do communicate and find out they're about the same in abilities/preferences/whatever. In that case, they'll need some kind of tie breaker.
She had cdr boots so she at least had to wait for 525 gold. Video is just for fun I guess. Totally impractical
Isn't it 15s

After tomorrow's maintenance
bite me
Man, why are spanish people so rude in this game wtf. Just did Coop vs AI to get my win and sign off, and this premade with Vayne and Olaf were constantly talking in spanish about KSing the mid Fizz, because he was KSing them (not true, he was just doing Fizz things everywhere). I called them out on their bs and how if they didn't have double-digit assists, it's impossible Fizz was effectively KSing them.
Funny enough, I told Fizz on post-game chat, he was french lol (I guess for once it's a polite french guy!).
But really though, people can be so fucking petty. wtf.
Pd. Bear in mind, I did more damage than Vayne as Lissandra, and wasn't even trying...
Ppd. I'm spanish btw!

Anyone got an opinion on Fiora? I've been having a lot of fun with less mechanics heavy champs (Garen, Malphite, Cho, Taric, ect), but the more ranked I play the more I get that the best champs to carry are those with utility. Zed, LeBlanc, Kat, Riven.
What do you guys think? I

i felt like she was unstopable once she gets fed in early game but kinda useless if she didnt
the ult is the thing that makes her annoying

Fiora has like... zero utility.
She's strong early, but she must exert that. If the enemy laner can play extremely passively, and other lanes/jungle doesn't get caught if she goes out to roam, her presence really drops. If she falls behind, it's very difficult for her to get back.
preseason patch is on the early morning of the 20th
Ah, so it's downloading the files and then doing a rollout later. Teewhy.
Excellent. I look forward to trying out the new jungle.
That isn't my point.
Just as I think laws should exist because some people can't behave unless forcefully told otherwise, I think pick order should exist for the children who can't communicate their needs properly.
And just as laws aren't the first line of defense for ethical behavior (They're the last, in most cases), pick order is the last resort for people who won't communicate.
What part of NA are u from
Don't agree with this at all. All it takes with her current iteration is to get one good ult into the enemy team she really doesn't have to do anything early or in lane.
Missouri. I get about 100 on NA and actually got as low as 65 on LAN. Couldn't tell a difference whatsoever but still
Nice. Ya I'm in Massachusetts and I get the same ping in na as I do in euw. ~98
I think that even when she snowballs early, she's kind of easy to shut down in team fights.
I've always felt that her ult is pretty limp if she's behind. And I agree that if she gets very far behind in lane that she sucks pretty hard until she can find an opening to go farm and catch up.
I haven't even tried it yet and I know that it will be true for me too. I'm in CT and easily ping better to FL than CA.
Still waiting for those mystical East coast fixes.
Sick of my 117 ping.
I'm in CT as well, cheers!

220 ping or playing on the BR server
Having slightly higher ping than other people on your server doesn't look that bad now, does it
