[RANT] The game tips are next to atrocious, as well as the player's ego.
Don't read this if you don't want to hear a person go full rant mode.

The hints- Most is what they say is "Be Tilt-proof LULUL" and "Honor your teammates if dey were chill".
There are SO MANY things that a player could look out for, ESPECIALLY in terms of macro. The amount of players who autopilot and fail to look out for key aspects of the game like lvl2 trading, minions aggro, predicting enemy jungler movements ect. IS SO MINDBOGGLING. This game is mainly figured out in terms of macro, even with these rune changes, yet so many players are oblivious to it. Riot should remind players that winning takes more than throwing spells in each others faces. Instead they focus on adding gimmicky shit like new runes (where some of them aren't EVER viable) or some skins which don't even matter. It's like they riot doesn't even try to make the players play the game like it's meant to played.

Which brings me onto my next issue, the playerbase. How could someone be considered as trying to win if they refuse to even THINK during their games, then proceed to whine and bitch about how their team is holding them back from winning. At this point, there's no incentive for players to try to improve past gold, but just to get the win. This game is in a dire need of a rank HARD reset, just to get players to try again. And to all those player saying shit like "uhh but muh rank" Too bad. Work for the rank if you deserve it so much.
And why is so edgy to 'not try'. "It doesn't matter, I'm not trying anyways". Get the fuck out of ranked. Get the fuck out of any competitive game if you don't want to try. Go play some skyrim on novice if you want to be that much of a little shit. Ranked SHOULD be a place where people want to try. You should be banned for just fucking saying dumb shit like that.
But fuck it, no-one is going to listen to this. My opinions on this game have changed so much as i played it, to the point where it's impossible to defend riot's focuses as a company/ the players' attitude towards the game. It's just so crushing how amazing this game could be, but instead is just disappointment. Riot might as well have an actual fucking elephant in the room, because they still won't look at it.
