My advice for lowering the salt level in bronze

MajinBell··2 votes·440 views

Hey guys I realized that consecutive winning in rank games is like going to the casino and expecting to leave with money or like winning the Powerball lottery. So i decided to make a plan for myself that might help ease the salt level a bit. Please understand this is just advice, to take some stress when playing. I decided to do a ranked game once per day, regardless of a win or loss, STOP PLAYING RANKED until the next day. When you play consecutively your more than likely to mess up or someone on your team will. You gotta understand everyone will have a bad game you just gotta learn to accept and move on. The reason why i say stop after one game is to lower the chances of you getting a lower ranking on your elo. Hear me out one ranked game a day lowers the chances of lost games and gives you more time to think about runes, plays, champs, strategies or you might even take the break time to relax.

You know what else helps? Accepting "responsibility" for your own mistakes and not putting the blame on your teammates.

Sometimes it's hard to accept responsibility in LoL because of the toxic community, it's best to do the best that you can and ignore the toxic chat and report after the game.

Doesn't make my advice any worse.

That is true, we all know that toxic players are the cause for lost games. Like you said it would easier if people accepted responsibility but if it was that easy we wouldn't have toxic players.

The world is full of toxicity, i'm personally probably part of an unfavorable opinion in that people are just too damn sensitive and riot supports babies too much.

i wouldn't say that riot babies us, there are some areas in LoL that could use some improvement like for example champion balancing but they do want the communities input to make the game better, even though sometimes it feels like they aren't listening to the players sometimes.

Oh they def baby the community, i'm guessing u never played StarCraft 1.

Lets just say Trash talk was apart of the game.. literally, it was impossible to enter a chat room w.o seeing 2-10 players rippin into eachother calling each other newbs and insulting each other in ways you dont see on league. The idea was to get under the players skin and piss them off then play them 1v1, kick their ass and humiliate them infront of everyone in the lobby.

sounds awful , so how did riot baby the community?

Do i really need to explain? "oh this player hurt ur feelings, dw ill chat restrict them for 50 games, 2 week ban them, and if they're still hurting your feelings, ill ban them from playing our game entirely"

Pretty pathetic if u ask me.. But i also come from an "age" of video games where trash talk was part of the games i played.

lol sounds like another hate filled game that's almost pay to win. Trash talking is still part of games today but sometimes it's taken too far, for instance no one should be racially or sexually harassed on a video game.

But thats just it, I dont know you, you dont know me. I cannot call you black or homosexual and actually know i'm right. Its literally all bullshit, and the fact that people get offended by people they dont even know is pretty pathetic.

and no StarCraft was not pay to win by any means.

MajinBell1 votes

Sorry i just assumed StarCraft was pay to win, idk if it's pathetic but even if they don't know what the other person looks like, saying those kinds of words or typing them on the screen where people can see them is pretty offensive and people could take it to heart. You have to consider gaming companies are a business that wants their product to be reviewed positively among the community. Racial slurs, or sexual harassment on boards and chats could leave a impression that might prevent new players from playing. But i understand where your coming from it can get annoying .

Right, but StarCraft is arguably the best computer game of all time, and it had all the toxicity you could imagine. I think League appeals more to children than most games and for that reason, your concern for review makes sense. However, overall, it doesn't make the actual game any better.
