Hello everyone, hope everyone is having a great day (not me). So here’s what happened. Recently I reached diamond 1 and I generally hover around plat 2 - diamond 1 lobbies. For the past few days I have encountered a staggering number of specimens who identify themselves as “Streamers” in my lobbies. I generally solo/duo queue due to lack of friends. So these “streamers” are not like the once you encounter in bronze-gold lobbies, they have a decent following from 10k-100k range and they are good at the game CAUSE THEY PLAY THE GAME FOR 10-12 HRS. A DAY, DUHHHHH. I play the game for 2-3 hours 3-4 days a week, basically after work. The thing that pisses me off is these “streamers” will instalock their agents and ask others to fill in. I want to play a dualist and this “streamer” just instalocked Yoru for the 69th time today and for the entire game I cannot play a dualist now. I play 2-3 games only and i think it is fare that I should be able to pick a dualist in those games. I never instalocked any agent during my journey to diamond from iron. In lower ranks I have also encountered these kind of people but on rare occasion but from late plat and above these “streamers” have plagued the lobbies. So here’s the solution for all the part time gamers like me which I think most of us here are. In your lobby if someone instalocks a particular agent, whatever agent you want to play you should immediately instalock. Now a days I stopped solo queuing completely and I only duo queue with my friend and we have decided that we will play dualists no matter what others instalock. And trust me TEAM COMPOSITION DOES NOT MATTER IN RANKED GAMES. Just because these streamers master their agents by playing 10-12 hours a day then instalock them and expect everyone else to fill in IT IS NOT FAIR. So my final verdict is, whenever you encounter a instalocker NEVER-EVER FILL just instalock your agent and roll with it. Prioritise yourself in these situations and DAMN IT FEELS GOOD.
