User blog comment:Rapacious/Guide to how not to be an asshole in LoL Part 1/@comment-60.49.61.75-20110425143420

I wasn't aware this is common in EU/NA servers, as it is rather prevalent here in the SEA servers. Most people who DO play tanks sometimes play the tanks as a 'killer' instead. I've seen some of them run in and drop like a rock instantly, making them almost as useless as certain squishy carries. Problem is, when you don't pick a tank or ask them to pick a tank, you get the don't be a ***** whiner and pick a tank or stfu when you ask them to pick a tank. And when you DO pick a tank and happened to have a bad game, guess who is to blame? Even if you pick an off-tank and do badly, you're sometimes too frustrated to explain to the players telling you to ltp n00b that you're not a full tank and require THEM to be fed or support you when you initiate.

I'm thinking the problem is everyone wants a slice of the glory pie. The one where they can get 20/0/0 and faceroll everybody while laughing like a maniac and ignoring their supporters. But oddly enough, I've seen some teams do well without a tank and faceroll other opposing teams, which leads me to believe it is these kind of matches which gives certain players the impression that either the last person picking picks a tank, or just shut up and plays another AD/AP squishy because they'll do well anyway. Besides, it is easy to blame the guy with the worst score eh?
