dude what kind of absolutely trash top laners have you been getting that think tp, the macro-play centered summoner spell, falls off when macro-play starts getting way more important
i have never heard of people not taking tp top because they think tp is bad
the type that normally go "im gonna take ignite for the increased kill pressure" then don't play around it *at all*. the "reasoning" I heard(at some point, unsure when) was that there's nothing to TP to when they've lost not only their lane, but both towers since they start roaming and give up entirely. thinking outside of micro play is so hard for people. ugh. send help
to be clear I take TP more often than most other spells aside from flash(or heal). barrier on lux against harder matchups is working out for me midlane, but it's crossed my mind a few times.
as for another thing people don't do even when it costs them a few deaths; how many wards do you all typically get to put down in a game? as support I reach around 8-15 control wards, end up at 25-40 in total. most other roles my control ward game is stuff but I still get 10 wards around the 20 min mark, around 20-something wards at 40ish. Normally I have blue at that time, or I've been clearing out a lot of enemy vision for the most part.
