You are joking right? MMR means all of jack shit. You know how many games I've been trolled into supporting then had feeders knock me down to 0 points? TONS. I'll play a flawless support 4 games in a row letting people have their "pick order" and then watch them go 0/7 or 1/13 against things like....our Khazix vs their Lux, Our Cass VS their Karth, our akali vs their Karth, the list goes on and on. I don't give a shit about pick order outside of the fact that people who are first picks should NEVER be picking mainlanes due to counters.So because someone types faster they should have preference? You have no clue how good the fast typist is anymore then you know how good the higher pick order is. I sure as shit know that if I'm going to jung or top for the specific game and my last pick calls the role then whines like a baby when I take it that it is their issue and not mine. The only reasonable judge of skill in a game with four strangers is your mmr which dictates pick order. I also trust my skill at my preferred lane over some random pubs. Are they better then me? Maybe, but I know what I bring to the table in my good roles and I have no clue what their skill level is at. So I take the sure thing because my mmr allows me to make that call. Now if someone is just taking the lane to be a dick because they a last pick called it, that is a different situation entirely.
This thread is literally GD v2.
Missing the whole concept of these forums in the first place.
Is there one regular poster here in plat/diamond?
Well, if you're going to ignore the only metric by which you can measure player skill in this game, then I don't know what to tell you. Hope that you aren't last pick? Because the attitude you are displaying is why these people aren't giving you the role you called as a low pick. They don't trust you, and they think you will be the feeder. Too bad ranked fives isn't really relevant, then you could play your desired role every game and make ranking at whichever role you prefer to play. Until then its solo queue where everyone hates everyone else and you are always better then the first pick.You are joking right? MMR means all of jack shit.

So that's a no then? Got it.
Wait, how is that ANY DIFFERENT than all of the shitty games where I have let the person who "called it" go mid while I am forced to support, and they feed and suck ass or whatever. I don't think you get it at all. You could have everything in your post about pick order and change it to who called it first, and rant the same dumb shit from the other angle.You are joking right?

Its been horrible. I can have 1 game with people who I can carry, then 4 with people who fuck coconuts on a daily basisSorry for your troubles Buffy. Sounds like you've had a mighty train of jackasses lately.
Ashe.I'm trying to like this game but I'm terrible at it. Is there an EZMODE champion I can level to 30 with minimal frustration?
I've played as Ashe to level 22 so far and I'm sick and tired of losing more games than I'm winning. I can last hit when I want, I finish team fights, and I can land her ultimate 100% of the time. I want something to play where I have better odds in solo queue of winning then losing.I would agree with the Ashe call for a newer player. You don't have to worry about too much to do your job and it's as good a place as any to work on traditional mechanics.
