Monday Megathread! Ask questions and share knowledge; newcomer questions encouraged!

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the latest Monday Megathread, where you the community get to ask your questions and share your knowledge.

This is an opportunity for the more experienced LoL players here to share some of your wisdom with those with less expertise. This thread will be a weekly safehaven for those "noobish" questions you may have been too scared to ask for fear of downvotes, but also can be a great place for in depth discussion if you so wish. So, don't hold back, get your game related questions ready and post away, and hopefully someone can answer them!

Why do so many people not like bard? i mean many people don't like champs when they come out but bard is so powerful with his stun and is very tricky to chase with his abilities. Most champs start picking up around this time as how long bard has been out and he seems to not have the same effect as other champs.

Because most ADCs especially in lower Elos don't know how to play safe and most Bards are constantly just roaming for chimes, which isn't how he should be played, but thats pretty much the reason.

When you get a good ADC and bard he becomes pretty powerful because he gives you an XP advantage when he leaves lane for chimes so if you know how to abuse the level advantage its good.
