I main mid because it’s my most enjoyable role, it was my first role in conquest, I play mages more than other classes, it’s more fun than ADC/Support/jungle, there’s more viable mage picks in mid than solo, you’re conveniently in the middle of the map (both good and bad). In casuals it’s fun to play off-role Mid picks like Achilles mid.

But only playing a single role is a very bad thing, and you will learn this when you play ranked. One of the things that triggers me the most in ranked is to find out from a team member "I only play X role".

Although my main character is an ADC I feel more comfortable playing in Solo, followed by Mid, the funniest role. The role I most dislike is, ironically, Carry.

I'm trying to be a jungle main as I have tons of fun playing assassins. I'm not very good but I'm trying to get better. My second best/ favorite role is Carry.

To this day I play way more teamfight modes (Arena, Clash, Joust) than Conquest, and that's mostly due to playing with friends, friends' mode preferences, and usually not having a full 5 man team. I do love Conq, though.

In teamfight modes, I play with Taco more than any other. It's a positive and a negative. He's such a good player, that I usually default to letting him play whatever he wants (which is usually not the tanks, though he does those well also). Give him the damage players, and I'm usually left with the tank roles. When we're with others, depending on who's with us, it allows me to play other roles...Boogie and Gulf, for example, prefer tanky roles. I enjoy all other classes in that respect...hunters, mages, assassins.

Also in playing with Taco, he strongly veers the matchup to something more difficult. I find when I play without him, it's almost always a lot easier.

In Conquest, I'm most comfortable in the Duo lane, probably due to playing those teamfight modes and being used to having someone else with me. Again, I probably have the most experience in the tankier roles, thus Support. I feel perfectly comfortable as ADC, though, and to be honest like that better than Support. But I'm a team player, and will play whatever role is needed.

I feel least comfortable in the Jungle. It's typically close to a disaster anytime I play Jungle. I enjoy mid and solo, but again, mostly don't play those roles...others usually want them.

Agreed. This is what causes people to steal roles

I hate playing jungle in ranked. You get blamed for everything

Solo, I don't trust anyone to help me nor should they trust me to help them.

Late game, depending on how the match has gone thus far, you can find Stuke in a corner of the map, either drinking bleach or... ___________________. (You fill in the blank)

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
