How can anyone hate Flash, its so fucking cool its disgusting.

It gives great reward for making someone forcibly use it that way you can secure something later on, or prevent something like a flash Crescendo. And on top of that it allows you to pull off really nice outplays on ANYONE, or to save yourself if you absolutely know that you will die without getting out of range. Its so versatile and is really fun to use. Honestly, getting mad over someone getting away is jinda childish. All it means us that there werent extra precautions taken to make sure he dies. Your laner shouldve tried to get him down enough so that your combined burst could kill or put you at an advantage by foring him to push and freezing lane at turret so even flash cant save him. And if you didnt kill him and he flashed away? So what, now he cant do it next time and has to put less pressure on the lane cuz he risks death by pushing out. Perfectly fine to me.

But ignite is the definition of un-fair. Free gaurantee on FB? 0 chances to heal an meaningfull amounts? Making duels impossible on someone like Riven or Darius because theyre damage is simply to high and youll never beat them without losing half your HP.....Oh....but you have to wait out the ignite too. I beleive ignite is dumb, and its the only truly pointless summoner spell besides countering a Healing champ like Vlad/Aatrox/Olaf/every ADC. I NEVER take ignite anymore, usually Barrier/Flash on EVERYONE except junglers and supports and I get kills/assists just as if I had ignite.
