if you ' re playing solo Q you should have a half decent understanding of how to play every role . While you should understand how other roles work and what they need to succeed , you don ' t need to know how to play every role . I ' ve played 2000 games and and you can count the number of times I ' ve played ADC on one hand . The role just doesn ' t interest me at all . Sorry for rant , I just really hate the you should know how to play every role if you ' re playing ranked because it ' s a garbage argument especially now that we ' re given the choice to pick 2 roles . <| sep |> The trick is to not just fire and forget , you have to hook , step forward for a second then combo . <| sep |> You need to be able to put x players in x 1 unique positions . Assuming 3 players 1 . MidTop TopMid JungleSupport That ' s only 3 unique positions Mid , Top and Jungle OR Support , since the 3 rd player cannot possibly cover two positions at once . Now the question is , would you rather enforce x 1 positions in premades or have your solo laners have a higher than normal chance of getting Autofilled ?
