TBH the real question in all of this is why Cheep posed the original question leading up to this discussion from his Veg Wolf account.

id say generally mids don't take into account who their jungler is when they ask for blue


Which goes to your point - we shouldn't bother discussing what shit players do anyways.

We've formulated a situation where mid and jungle don't hate each other and are at an equal level of skill, but through their own reasoning, have came to opposing views on what the best course of action is. IN this scenario the mid has already taken into account who the jungler is along a whole host of other factors, and similarly is the case for the jungler.



I'd generally argue that the mid shouldn't and won't be thinking about all the things the jungler thinks about in terms of cost/benefit for jungle clearing gank opportunites etc and as such has a better idea of things
jungler won't know the intricacies of the lane but should know enough to estimate the cs lead/deficit for losing/gaining blue or roaming difference

but if they truly have equal analysis it comes down to who they decide is more important to get ahead
getting a bruiser ahead is generallly more important than getting a tank ahead

Also the argument that NA/EU bad players dont give blue enough is just as valid as the argument that KR/CN bad junglers give it too much
because of the tendancy for KR/CN to copy the pros a lot
they might be right in giving blue but for the situation it might be better for them to take blue with unreliable mid laners

You're still too fixated on individual scenarios, the whole point is for when it's unclear who should get blue, giving it to mid has a higher likelihood of working out than giving it to jungle. The argument that KR/CN give blue too much is moot since it's accepted that blue is better on mid across all regions.

its not better "always" as you seem to claim
and that also assumes a solid mid laner who wards or otherwise has a low tendancy to feed it to a jungler

I'm not too fixed on individual scenarios at all
they are literally the things we make decisions based on

It doesn't have to be always, it just has to be more often better than not.

The assumption of a solid mid laner is, again, moot. you're at the same level as the guy you're playing with, you're not magically better unless you're smurfing or something.

Copying pros is a surefire way to do something that's not completely, irredeemably awful.
Playing selfishly is almost never the answer unless you're smurfing.
Playing team-oriented is the right option but isn't always realistic in solo queue.

"More often than not" only applies in the situation you don't look at ANY other factors at all which is just stupid.
Also you're not correct on assesment of playstyles.
If you are tryharding, playing a champ you're good at, good jungler etc then you can play selfishly with the assumption you'll carry
mid laner more likely to be off role/off champ/dicking around etc

on the other hand if you always help the team they are less likely to tilt taking pressure off you but denying you some opportunities
no one is clear cut better or worse so you again should look at the cost/benefit

you're basically saying "if your best heurstic taking into account all the factors to the best of your knowledge doesnt work use the weakest and most general one becauase fuck it yolo"

That's pretty condescending and insulting, cheep.


You have gone from jungle should give mid blue even when its Yasuo and Katarina because that's what Korean solo queue players do, to saying that if both players can't decide who should have blue then mid should get it because that's most likely to be correct, to now saying that if its not clear who would use it better then its more likely mid should get it.

Basically you've gone from something that was very obviously wrong to something that everybody basically does in the first place and isn't really a cause for debate.

I already explained how that was never my point at all, which you'd know if you read the posts carefully. http://www.liquidlegends.net/forum/lol-general/485388-patch-59-ashe-rework-general-discussion?page=34#663

Issue of causality, and again, was never what I claimed.

These two are the same point as I detailed out to Teut, unless you're missing some nuance in the argument.

Again, nope.

to something that everybody basically does in the first place and isn't really a cause for debate.

Well there's obviously still cause for debate since people aren't prostrating themselves at my feet and proclaiming me their one true god, so my work is not yet done.

Also with regards to selfish/teammate oriented
The very wise and very fictional captain levi sums it up best:
You can either trust yourself or trust your teammates, you never know how things are going to turn out.

Also I haven't read any of ketaras posts because I've made all my posts mostly during game or queue so 0 time
I just won though ggwp

the one thing Cheeps heuristic can tell us is that if you know absolutely nothing about league of legends you should give blue to mid laner all the time
which I guess is why cheep is annoyed when junglers don't always give him blue :3

What about being more specific?
Yes, mid should get blue more often than jungle, so you could say that in case of disagreement middle should get the blue.
But in game you ALWAYS have more info to go off of.

If you have a jungler who uses a lot of mana and manaless middle, second blue should usually go to jungler. So in case of disagreement jungler should get blue.
If you have a jungler who uses a lot of mana and the middle laner is feeding AND has little waveclear then second blue should usually go to jungler. So in case of disagreement jungler should get blue.
If you have a jungler who uses a lot of mana and the middle laner is feeding BUT has a lot of mana based waveclear then second blue should usually go to the middle laner. So in case of disagreement middle laner should get blue.
etc.

Cheep isn't wrong in principle it's just his generalization is so fucking massive to the point of being both useless and retarded.

I only agree with this in the case of "bad players" and they are "equally bad"
as in, they both have very incorrect assessment so you just take a shot in the dark and give it to mid
If they are "good players" and they agree most of the time when they should and shouldn't get blue then probably the jungler should get precedence on the decision for reasons outlined loads of times earlier.

If you are actively in the game it comes down to making your own judgement and you can pressure your way into the decision as mid player but ultimately jungler has smite.

That said nearly all the time the following happens
Jungler wants blue, mid wants blue but doesn't come: jungler gets blue, mid whines a bit but its okay
Jungler wants blue, mid wants blue but comes: smiting blue away from him here is pretty toxic and he already wasted time coming, so mid gets blue
Unless you want the blue strongly enough to smite away from him which means you need a strong reason its all based on the mid laners map awareness and the more he wants blue the more on point he is coming early for it

Which is how the game should be played, and goes t omy point of why CN/KR > EU/NA.

If Yasuo and Katarina were among the most played middle laners then it wouldn't be "nearly 100%" because giving Yasuo and Katarina blue buff is almost always just stupid. If you're right then EU/NA have a point over CN/KR because they understand blue buff doesn't just "belong to the middle laner".


I'm pretty sure Yasuo and Katarina are not the most played champs in any case so your point is moot.

Are you claiming the opposite? You're not allowed to call an argument weak unless you can propose a stronger alternative. To clarify- are you taking the position of "Bang unilaterally decided to take blue"?


You're absolutely allowed to call an argument weak wtf?
The burden of proof is on you.
Unilaterally is bad word anyway. Junglers are always thinking of laners so everytime a jungler takes blue when mid could have gotten it he made the concious decision to take it instead of mid.

Big sorry.

You're wrong again. The reason why whether mid or jungle should get the blue is something people disagree way more often than about who should get the farm in the duo lane is because the jungler should take the blue quite a bit more often than supports should take farm lol. That's amplified because you actually have a lot of time to think about that decision and communicate it minutes in advance.


I did say it was an extreme example, but it's a difference of scale and degree and not of kind. Using completely arbitrary numbers, support should take 1 cs out of every 100 and a jungler should take 1 blue out of every 10. Similar considerations should be made, namely does what I'm doing contribute to helping my team win the team. The only difference is that ADCs and supports generally have the same number - 1/100 - in mind, whereas, again using completely arbitrary numbers, mid thinks the number is 99/100 and jungle thinks the number if 50/100.

You're saying mid should cede the blue though.

What you're not saying is jungle should choose to not give it to them.

I'm saying its ultimately not the laners decision, its the junglers decision.


We're assuming that if you're in the same game, your general skill level and understanding of the game is about on par. In that case, due to the nature of the game (mid takes blue more often than jungle), jungle should cede blue to mid in case of disagreement, because you're both equally likely to be right/wrong, so giving blue to mid is correct more often than not. If you both agree there's no problem. And if it was left to the laner to decide he'd usually choose to take the blue himself, which coincides with the correct course of action based on probabilities.

So to adress a point I don't think you meant as a hyperbole (difficult to tell) you said that middle laner and jungler are equally likely to be wrong about who should get the blue, and therefore mid should get the blue because mid should is probably correct. But that's contradicting itself, you JUST SAID they are equally likely to be wrong. wtf?


?

They're equally likely to be wrong about a particular instance, BUT because mid should get blue more often than jungle, in case of a 50/50 disagreement you should cede it to the guy who's more likely to be right (even if it's for the wrong reasons).


that's a pretty big abuse of statistics though
mid gets more often than blue and all of those times jungle agrees
its like if there are 10 balls in a box and you count 7 blue and 3 purple and the other guy counts 2 purple and 8 blue you should assume its 8 blue and 2 purple because t here are more blue balls

ultimately it takes more effort for both jungle and mid to trade off blue than to just take it so inertias in the "undecided-->jungler" camp, game mechanics are in that camp (smite) and generally the jungle has to think about things like handing off blue much more than mid so he's probably got a stronger idea of when its good or not

That's only true if you dispute the notion that mid should get more blue more often than jungler overall. Which is a completely different argument.

The thing is we aren't picking a situation at RANDOM, if its a 70/30% split we arent picking a situation randomly in that 70:30 split we are picking a spot right in the middle where this heuristic is irrelevant because its so close to either line


It doesn't matter how close to the line it is, if the odds aren't exactly 50/50 there is one heuristic that is clearly superior to the other.


no its not wtf

its not better "always" as you seem to claim
and that also assumes a solid mid laner who wards or otherwise has a low tendancy to feed it to a jungler

I'm not too fixed on individual scenarios at all
they are literally the things we make decisions based on

if you're ensure to make a judgement call and see how it goes
or copy pros and see how it goes
or play selfishly because fuck your team
or play teamwise because you dont want them to rage

Also with regards to selfish/teammate oriented
The very wise and very fictional captain levi sums it up best:
You can either trust yourself or trust your teammates, you never know how things are going to turn out.

Also I haven't read any of ketaras posts because I've made all my posts mostly during game or queue so 0 time
I just won though ggwp

the one thing Cheeps heuristic can tell us is that if you know absolutely nothing about league of legends you should give blue to mid laner all the time
which I guess is why cheep is annoyed when junglers don't always give him blue :3

What about being more specific?
Yes, mid should get blue more often than jungle, so you could say that in case of disagreement middle should get the blue.
But in game you ALWAYS have more info to go off of.

If you have a jungler who uses a lot of mana and manaless middle, second blue should usually go to jungler. So in case of disagreement jungler should get blue.
If you have a jungler who uses a lot of mana and the middle laner is feeding AND has little waveclear then second blue should usually go to jungler. So in case of disagreement jungler should get blue.
If you have a jungler who uses a lot of mana and the middle laner is feeding BUT has a lot of mana based waveclear then second blue should usually go to the middle laner. So in case of disagreement middle laner should get blue.
etc.


I mean this is more the along Ketara's point of "everyone agrees anyways" which is why there's not much point discussing them down to the last detail.

Cheep isn't wrong in principle it's just his generalization is so fucking massive to the point of being both useless and retarded.


The conclusion that I want to draw is junglers should be more open to the idea of giving mid blue instead of falling into the mentality of "my jungle my rules."
