No doubt it was because they spent too long in the US on just tourist visas. This sort of thing happens all the time to people that live in the USA on tourist visas. While you can technically spend 90 days (as a Canadian at least, not sure for others) in the US, if you leave after spending 30+ days already, it is pretty much a crap shoot whether you will get back in.

Did you not play like ~2 months ago? I couldn't convince people not to.

I have no idea what elo you play at, but no one in the 1900's ever bans morg or kass on the na servers.

I'm watching dig vs clg from IPL 3 and my god every one of those champions have been nerfed gigantically. I really wonder what the meta would be like now if Riot didnt lower the strength of every single champion. I think the only champion there that hasn't been nerfed heavily since then that was in that meta is Trundle, though the jungle changes were essentially a nerf to him. I think IPL 3 was around the Graves or Xerath patch

I find banning Kass a waste of ban but I ban Morg just because I hate her ult. I've stopped banning Ali though.

I have no idea what elo you play at, but no one in the 1900's ever bans morg or kass on the na servers.

1200s, you can't get anyone to ban anything else. Ali/Shen/Morg/Malph/Rengar/Blitz every game or you're Hitler and they'll throw on purpose and blame your bans. It's a bit annoying.

People in my games tell me to ban Morg a lot. Then I ban Jayce and they're like "wtf he's not even good."

I'm just starting ranked now and the only ones of those I really insist on having banned are Rengar and Ali.

What's the deal with banning Kass? I can understand morgana, just because she's really annoying to play against in general and her ult is sick. But kass doesn't seem good at all, I get that he has a silence but that's about it.

He's annoying when fed, and that's one of things you don't want in solo queue. Fed Kass means all lanes lose.

If he gets rolling then he becomes a terror because he's really good at ganking side lanes. Just think of how in pubgames/soloqueue stuff where you aren't going to have the greatest communication with your whole team composed of strangers, assassin champs that are allowed to gain momentum just destroy games. Kassadin just happens to be one of those champs.

But even within my low elo people have generally stopped banning Kass. I only see him banned maybe 1 out of 10 games. Morg bans are still common though.

Kass is more impactful than Morg at low Elos. Morg is played more so she gets banned some through the low-mid Elos, but once you're over like 1600 people realize she isn't worth a ban and start banning more obnoxious things (e.g. globals, rengar, jayce). After people stop banning Morg, they start banning Malphite. I guess it has to do with an inability for people to play non-AD autoattackers in top lane.

he brutalizes several popular mids with basically no chance of recovery without massive jungle pressure. The way to avoid this is lane switching and good jungle coordination, neither of which will occur in soloque.

If he shits on your mid then it basically means bot lane also loses horribly as he can blink down and destroy that lane in 4 seconds.

If you play mid against a decent kass you would understand. A lot of mids just cant do anything against him after 6 due to his silence and mobility and its very frustrating.

Then again I have seen some obscenely terrible kassadin players who have no idea what cooldowns are or how to use a 2.5 seconds silence to totally negate your opponents side of any trade.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

I guess chauster chilled down rather fast. He was yelling at doublelift like mad, calling him "fucking stupid" etc. for not coming for dragon and potentially losing it.

I do not fear Morg/Kass even though I know they have the potential of owning the game. I generally will insist to play mid and don't fear them (I do get beat by them because the other player can be better than me, I can make mistake, or he can get some good ganks!)

When I have the ban power, I usually aim for these champions : Blitzkrank (#1 on my ban list. He just destroy too many bot lanes to my liking).
Alistar (#2 usually. I'm not banning if I get first pick, but I don't like him in the jungle. A good Ali will usually make me lose)
Shen(#3 : Splitpush too strong in the good hands)
Shaco (#4 : I don't mind shaco at all. But I do mind him ganking and destroying lanes!)
Darius (usually my #5. I sometimes will ban him before Shaco because I feel that he wins too much against my team)
Any FOTM can make it in my list too.

Speaking of bans... I read not long ago that Riot would start to ban out people who trollpicked in champion select to force others to dodge. I sometimes use this tactic, like when I get in my team "Xx5k4t3rG0H4NxX", "WORST TOP BR", surge/tp graves and ghost/heal yi, I just pick promote/cv soraka and wait until last second to dodge myself or switch my summoners to legit ones and carry on with the game. Does anyone know if they actually started banning people for that? If so, how do they get the reports? It is hard to believe that players will take the effort to screenshoot it and send it to Riot with a ticket...

Just out of curiosity, I wouldn't mind stopping to do that.


From what I understood, they took the players with an already large moderation history, and looked for which ones had a disproportionately large number of games where someone else dodged. If you do it a lot, you might be in trouble, but if it's an every-once-in-awhile thing, you're probably fine. Basically it's just collecting statistics instead of looked at e-mailed reports or whatever.

Also, I fail to see the logic that disallows the common poster from criticizing pro players, but also allows for analyses such as the Battle Reports MoonBear (who isn't even level 30? might be wrong, but he's definitely not high Elo) has put out -- which, by the way, players like Scarra have read and took advice from.
