Pre-Level 30 norms are the most excruciating thing ever

The most toxic, vile, and terrible people are in these matches. I don't understand how any new player tolerates it. It's just 95% banned low elo players flaming each other, while the remaining 5% are new players suffering from this. Why can't riot do something?

Real new players get matched against other bad or new players pretty quickly, within 10 games. The reason why you are being matched with toxic smurfs is because you are a smurf.

The reason why a beginner friend you may have is getting matched with toxic smurfs would be because he's playing with you.

way too much effort, they just let the game rot instead and throw their hands in the air

Yeah it was pretty sheet as a new person.

I get it I'm bad and you aren't that great either was usually the end of my thought process though.

I really just want random vc tho.

Feels lonely.

For real. I make a new account because i want to see how good i can climb with champs i dont normally play. For the first 5 or so games its as youd expect, many complete noobs and the occasional Smurf. After that point things went downhill. Surely my MMR rose because of my performance in those first 5 or so games. But i did not expect the toxicity. People are tryharding so hard in blind pick. Way more than ranked. So maybe its a specific type of player that creates new accounts and just wants to win as much as possible to level up? That's just not where im at. I want to enjoy the ride.

New players aren't put into these games. It's usually smurfs with other smurfs. And plus smurfs are usually banned people who are making a new account so they are probably going to be toxic(You are probably a smurf).
