Just freaks me out to see the mentality of LoL playerbase.
I'm probably not the greatest LoL player evah (sure as hell I'm way better than the top ranked solo queue guy rite now, saw him play with HotshotGG today, hell if he played bad), but when it comes to tanking I really know how to make a team win (not joking, I hate that btw, they always ask me to tank in arranged teams, wich sucks... "can I be a carry or a nuker pweeeeeeeeeeeze?" "no our carry will be OMGsoPRO and our Nuker will be Seph1r0th, you can be our support tho, you're good at support chars" I'm like the ******* kid of the team... anyway back to topic, ****ing digressions how do they work).
Lately I was wondering, how in the hell is it even possible that people don't ban Rammus nowday nor try to get him with 1st pick? (I understanding banning Morde because es #1).
I mean, I just played Rammus, enemy team was mostly playing better, still ****ted on em won the game, got inside fountain right at inhib explosion and spammed /taunt near their kass to make it look like I was huggin' him. All this relatively easy.
So what's my point you may ask.
Shouldn't Rammus have a joke? something like all his body hiding inside the shield and tremble scared or him being lying on the back waving arms and legs like he can't get on his feets again.
This or, why the hell once a char gets slightly nerfed (to ramm it happened a while ago) people just forget about him?

For all you questions about jungling

Because Rammus is countered by one item?

More or less Rammus just kind of sucks compared to other tanks, and even some off tanks. Not saying he can't be played, but there are better options.

I did play him with one of our Moba premades the other night and we did very well. I think that's because everyone playing had a higher skill base than your average pug, though.

If you feel the need to ban him you're bad. If you pick him you better play good otherwise you're useless.

I'd like to go deeper onto these, because other than Alistar/Amumu and probably Leona due to her 3stuns and the fact she does **** damage but makes the team do godlike damage I don't see many tanks that are as effective in a game, let's not forget he's got dem pushes abilities.

And btw my point was that he was a permaban in lower Elos (unlike alistar because in low Elo people can't play alistar so no harm is done) and when he wasn't banne everyone was "OMG pick Rammus!"

Because people don't know what a Quicksilver Sash is in lower ELOs.

Still that doesn't explain why all of a sudden he isn't considered worth a ban when all that has been nerfed was his p.ball. I'm not questioning the fact he ain't worth a ban, I'm questionining the fact the same noobs that used to ban rammus now don't

Idk. Annie and GP are harder pubstaombs right now than him? Morde, too. Amumu is almost always permaban anyways.

I'm actually getting into using Leona as my tank most of the time now.
