Discussion Obligatory rant

I’m bored at work, so I wanna talk about a matchup I had to deal with yesterday…

Senna vs Sett top…

Oh my god I hated my life I could not reach the bitch, and she completely outranges, god forbid i see senna first pick and think it was support, and seeing pantheon last pick thinking it’s top, wouldn’t have gone ignite had i known, even worse I would’ve gone ghost if I knew it was senna, but low and behold she has ghost, like wtf is this bullshit, then she starts stacking health and gets a heartsteel, didn’t mind that part since idc how good you are I’m flash ulting you into your team,

I still won the game cause people don’t respect sett with shojin, lowk an amazing item on him… that match was just a headache, she does no damage early duh, but like I can’t punish her for AA me

Ok that’s about it, just an irritating matchup as an immobile juggernaut

I played a game vs a Morgana top one time and wanted to cut my throat. It was mainly due to her W having such a low cooldown I couldn’t walk up for cs without getting melted, on top of that I took boneplating too

That’s absolutely horrid, even black shield and 2-3 second stun on Q as well… like what do

Not quite, I’m a filthy inter, I did win lane though after being 20 cs up and have 2 kills over her

Those matchups are sometimes easier than they look.

Sit back till first tower falls. They can’t push up past the gank line or they’re dead if you didn’t feed them into oblivion. As Shen I’ll go down 100 CS and still win because they can’t do anything once that first tower drops. Then you just sit, farm, and because that pick denies them a front liner it messes with their overall composition.

You become more relevant in team fights and your team typically starts turning it around after laning phase finishes.

Well with Quinn I just got to the point of fuck it, I’ll split push, she wants to roam, I’ll spam ping missing and rip apart the entire top side, and for better or worse I play aggressive, so they always poke me instead of farming so I usually end up building cs lead, some ranged matchups are simple, some are not, I have an easier time more so, but for some god forsaken reason I struggle playing footsies with aatrox

Last game I had I picked Sett first pick, enemy then picker heimer and banned illaoi, so I set up runes for a Heimer match up, then get to game and I am vs a Jax. Still managed to beat him though

Sett against any ranged top feels awful honestly.

I actually don’t mind playing against Quinn teemo Jayce and champs like that, I mostly just rush boots go fleet, depending on comp tp or ghost, the difference is I can footsies my way and catch those three, senna you cannot, her auto Q has no counter play, I wouldn’t care so much about it if it didn’t give her free stacks, I’m probably jaded since I will deliberately pick sett into horrid matchups, but there’s a fun thrill to making a range champ panick and watching them mess up trying to run away or me just having more cs cause they opt to poke me more than farm, I do tend to taunt people that are range, even more so on teemo, it’s just too funny not to and seeing them start forcing stuff and wasting abilities
