Hey guys! So I just started playing league about two or three weeks ago, and one thing I definitely noticed that was quite contrary to what a friend told me - there were a LOT of people who wanted to play support. However, this is only within my friend group. Support in solo queue seems to be much rarer, which leads me to wonder - what if certain roles drew towards it certain personalities, and those personalities who played support just all happen to clump together? They could even have a problem of lacking ADCs and such.
A little Googling showed me that this was not a new topic. People have had in-depth discussions on this matter before. However...no one seems to have actually collected large amounts of data for analysis. And that's what I'm going to attempt to do.
This will be based on the Myers Briggs 16 Personality types test, so we may want about at least 100 responses before any recurrent data shows up. I will at least be able to tell you if there REALLY are no girls on the internet. All you gotta do is take the personality test, and then tell me the letters of your result in the survey. If you have never taken the 16 personality types test before, please do so here: http://www.16personalities.com/ It should take no more than 10 minutes, and is pretty cool and insightful (read instructions and try to avoid neutral answers for better results), and my survey to link your result to a role will be right here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NNBXD5X
If you have taken the test before and can go ahead with just my data collection survey, but need to check to make sure your letters you can do so here: http://www.16personalities.com/personality-types
Lastly, please PLEASE share this with everyone you know that plays league. I'd very much appreciate a healthy data pool, and I look forward to hopefully sharing some awesome graphs and charts with you! I'll also be posting this on several other league forum boards for a wider range of audience. If responses are slow, first update will be in a week.
Holy **** you guys have already blown the response limit. We're at 300+ responses. Give me a moment, I'll make a second and third survey. If the survey you're filling out breaks halfway through or doesn't load, it's probably cause response limit has been exceeded. There should be a new link on this page - I'll just keep updating them. Hooray for responses! Keep 'em coming!
UPDATE: 1k ACHIEVED. STAY TUNED FOR RESULTS ON SUNDAY!!
Since results are a ton in coming, please check the Reddit post. I will be narrowing my results postings to Reddit and the official League forums.
