User blog comment:Fbhuvjhvbnvfdkv hfd/KS - Kill steal or Kill secured?/@comment-5955640-20140514063330

I suppose I do kill secured but it's not pre-meditated. I just wanna do me job. "Oh no that person is getting away let me just hit them with this!" Or "He's killing you, I'd better kill him before he kills you!" As you can tell this is support mentality and i'll end up with this situation where I will completely spaz on a high mobility marksman who was low enough to kill with an auto attack from my Marksman's auto attack but because they are so juke heavy or dash ready I'll just be like "NO, must stop him! *nuke*"

I don't like when I do that without Just Cause, because I know they don't like that sort of thing (although I look the other way when the carry has low damage potential) but ya know. I don't want to be in that situation where somebody slips up and everything goes wrong because I didn't do enough to help them. I do 110% when 90% was okay. I don't waste the money though. I mean nobody does these days supports are either genuine real supports and can buy items that make their scalings more effective. Or they are 'supports' who just buy real damage items and then carry the match as a another full mage, bruiser, plate spinner, and tank.

But ya know. I've worn the other shoe as well. Wanted that Big Fucking Sword but I didn't get that kill so i'll just settle for a pickaxe and the not as big sword.

When I'm not playing support I sort of assume I have the right to kill with extreme prejudice. Because everyone else sort of carries on the front end and needs kills. The only other people truly expected to give kills away are the junglers although I would say that junglers can catapult you into a strong post laning phase if they completely dominate the opponent enough to where they are just this big bully that no one can stop.

I remember when people carry the idea that a Penta is just a team fight kill steal. I guess it is but I dunno. The mysterious announcer lady makes it sound like that's a thing that's supposed to be awesome and cool.

I dunno. I wanna be useful so i'll try my best. I can't really hold back which is the only way to make sure that the kill doesn't get lost but sort of ensures that you might take the kill.

I guess the problem is intent. If it was premediated with the purposes of personal glory it's sort of a problem. Otherwise I think it wouldn't be too much to ask to be reasonable about the situation.
