Yeah, my bad. Started looking for video and forgot to finish the previous part. Anyway, Clam, have you tried it? And, Mercy, why you dislike it?
Never agreed with Link more.You try to present the first part as a fact and then back it up by your opinions and it is still blatantly false.
I can't stand league because 90% of the time you can call GG within the first 10 minutes of the game and then you're stuck losing for another 10-20 minutes. I don't think a "truly competitive" game would have it so you can call the results within the first 10 minutes.
Also, there are several people around here that play CSGO. We just don't feel the need to complain about our preferred game every chance we get. All i ever see you league people do is ***** and whine about league.
Have been both - watching League tournaments and played it, hate it in both points of view.
When playing:
-All the time the same map.
-Comebacks seem to be pretty rare.
-IMO not really friendly to new players, as it's pretty hard to remember all heroes and what are their roles *and the draft whatevertheheck or ingame there is nothing to help it*
-At least to me it seems like first 20-30 minutes all but jungler just stand in lane and try to be last one to hit the minion. Just my opinion, but got no clue how is that fun.
-Too small amount of action. Like when there is action there is a lot, but afterwards the cooldown is way too long.
-Way too based on personal play rather than teamplay.
-I've talked to few people who are diamonds in League, have proved that *cus why would I believe that without proof* and have switched to different type of game or Heroes just cus you can solo the enemy team if one enemy has fed you enough. That in both ways seems absurd to me.
When watching:
-Again, too repetitive as the map remains the same.
-Last memory of watching League tourney was this year's grand finals, and there casters barely described what role is which champion and why is he better in it or better against another one. I don't know most champs, so to me it was like (ching chang will just annihilate ching chong) so... That doesn't help for sure.

I don't dislike it. Heroes of Might & Magic 3 is just one of those "legendary" status games for a lot of people. I've never really been a fan of MOBA games either way though. Heroes of the Storm is fun, but it just doesn't keep my attention.

I wish more people played Smite. Such a great MOBA. Especially if you want to take a break from Dota or LoL.

Just came through my mind that I have had a 100% win rate with Kha'zix across season 6 and season 7 is only going to look better. Can't wait to abuse him for elo. My top 3 junglers.

The facepalm when people make up words like "jungler" to basically name going off-road.

The actual part of the map is called the Jungle.... No-one actually made it up, it's the name Riot gives to the player in that role.
Now it's my turn to cringe at your ignorance.

If you go on a lane, you are a laner. If you go to the jungle, you're a jungler. It's just that easy. There's certain champions who are basically made for the jungle and only played in the jungle, and these champions are universally known as junglers, and for example whenever someone talks about kha'zix, everyone already knows him as that assassin bug that goes in the jungle and stays in the jungle whenever he's not ganking. You aren't going to see a jungler unless he is ganking, otherwise he's just going to stay and farm in his jungle. The jungle is specifically designed to be played in, it's not like going off-road like in doter.
Nobody if going to bother say "I love kha'zix, he's my favorite champion who is currently viable to go farm in the jungle and gank lanes so they can snowball towards the late game and win." We just go "I love kha'zix, he's my favorite jungler".
And that's about it I guess. I do facepalm, however, at moderators such as yourself who'd do better to just stick to moderating and not spout their stupid and cheap opinions whenever they got the chance. Tells a lot about the type of person they are.

Please, do. Let me help with that cringing.
Hey, I can play that game! "If you pull imbecile words out of your ***, you're a dumb millennial."
Although I'll admit you are making me feel like doing my moderating job on you now.

TIL a term created BY a company, created for their game specifically, are not allowed to creature a word of their own to title the role and they must specifically find a word already in existence to call it.

I think just about everyone in this thread, at one point or another, has stated an opinion that someone else in the thread would consider stupid. I don't think it's necessary to go attacking this point over an opinion.

That must be why a website-wide search for the term only has it come up in the Forums, coming from players' posts, right?

Which, assuming them being "written on behalf" implies they are the words Riot would use, would at the very most mean that Riot gave in to the mental damage and started using it too to not alienate players who might "not know what Riot is talking about" if the made up words weren't used.

I don't know the reasoning, but the fact is they use "jungler" frequently in eSports. I assume they go for more technical, official terminology on the "main" website, hence why terms like "marksman" are used there, but you will pretty much exclusively hear "AD Carry" in their eSports broadcasts. It seems less like being inclusive and more about convenience. "One who plays in the jungle" is a mouthful, "jungler" is not.
