1. First pick goes „support pls“. I am like „okay, thats a nice change, I go adc“. Then he instalocks Soraka and writes „dont know how to play her but its the only support I have, they banned blitz“. Ooooookay. In game he is like „WHERE TO PUT WARDS?“ Turns out, he was on his placement matches. 100% instajoined ranked as soon as 30.
2. Some dude calls top as 4th pick. Locks Amumu cause Amumu is op, right?. Goes 1-7.
3. We get a Singed toplane with full ad runes who is up vs a Jax who builds full ad. Singed decides to skip armor going full manmode ap ending up 1/9 and blaming our jungler.
4. Enemy team gets a Garen top. He goes 0/9/0 with 22 minions after 20 minutes. He only has 1 runepage and in his masteries he is using only 28 out of 30 points.
This, obviously works both ways. Meaning, these are the level of players on your team as well as the level of players on the opposing team. You just need to learn to help minimize the bad play of your teammates while exploiting the bad play of your opponents to the point where you are "carrying". And, to be clear, you can absolutely carry as a support. Become a team leader. Type dragon/buff/baron timers in chat. Make sure your team is ready for objectives, be helpful and "supportive". It goes a long, long way.
