First win of the day removed from Coop vs AI.

I can honestly say this for the first time in over a year or better of my League game-play, that I have never been so genuinely mad at riot. I play normal games all the time. My usual game-play is play three rounds or so max of Summoners Rift. And if I can't win, just go do a Coop vs AI to get my first win of the day so you can build up your IP. In doing so, building up your runes and champion pool. But just three days ago, I clicked on coop vs AI after losing three games, only to find a new notification mentioning first win of the day is removed from this game mode. I played that one Coop vs AI anyway. Long story short. I spent the last three days on a losing streak, a total of exactly 10 losses and one win finally, over the course of three entire days. Just for first win of the day. All losses from either afk's, toxic's locking in, total counters or the very select few champs I've come to know before this losing streak to be utterly broken. Namely, Draven and Riven. Which in a lot of my lost games I had them on the enemy team.

main focal point of this topic By removing first win of the day on Coop vs AI. You force me to be thrown into the toxic people's will and whim without any reward if I can't win after three or more games. No rewards "at all".

If all else fails. I can deal with toxics. I can deal with afk's. I can learn from my counters. Because at the end of the day I can still progress and get better and expand my pool of experimentation, learning new champs and runes. All thanks too.. Oh wait. That's right. "First win of the day" in "Coop vs AI" was removed..

I never been so boiled to the brim and screamed towards my monitor in my life. the feeling of being completely helpless and not get my reward is aggravating and makes me more toxic than Ah could ever dream in a nightmare. I Avoid swearing. I really do try. But that feeling of "win or leave in defeat" plus me clearly see we aren't going to win, makes me swear like a sailor. I can't be guaranteed a first win of the day anymore. I have to rely on my team every time and I don't have control over my rewards. It's suddenly not worth playing anymore because I can't Grind. I admit it, the grinding element is what kept me coming back. But now. That's gone.

All that League of Legends to me is only good for simply playing with my friends, maybe once every two weeks since I don't have many friends that play League anymore. And if we win, we win, big whoop. If we lose, oh well.

Honestly this has made me a toxic player now because I sweared and gave the worst of names to anyone talking shit about me or saying I am trash or feeding. I normally mute and block and continue playing, trying to be a good player even when I am horrible in that match. But me knowing that my team are the only way to getting first win of the day, makes me so angry because I can't help but know, by them picking on me, we've already lost because we aren't working as a team. Makes me really want to make them pay for wasting their time on me and dare point fingers. Note though, I avoid correcting other people and let them do their own thing other than calling mia and telling which lane to run via pings. because that's what a team mate is suppose to do.

I've invested so much time and effort into this game and I know it gets increasingly harder as you progress. But I rather enjoyed that when I had something to fall back too if I can't win my IP. But now being pushed out and being forced to win in PVP just to get rewards means losing streaks up too 10 for me. I can honestly say I've had enough now and it's only my first 10 losing streak, before a random win in a fricking ARAM game, that is all by random chance, that I won a game finally.

Since Riot dare remove first win of the day in Coop vs AI. They better take care of those toxic, afk people first, so that I might actually rely on my teams for once. Because losing 10 games "in a row" and only wining off of random chance in a ARAM match Is what it means for me to play League anymore. I don't want to play to get better anymore. If anything, random laughs with friends when they come around once a week or two.. It's not worth the toxic waste of filth I would have to deal with just to play new champs by earning IP. I am here for the competitive play but only in a fun manner as I learn new things. I never play ranked other than for the rewards and that's it. You will never see me play more than the promotionals in ranked.

Everyone has their way of having fun. And I guess Riot doesn't want players like me that like to get champions or runes. It's all about the "who is the best" or "start paying money to play these champs" >.> The more I type, the more I don't want to even return to League.

You must have selected intro bots (does not give first win after level 10), because I just got the first win bonus in Coop vs AI just a couple of hours ago on intermediate bots.

Go outside.

First off, you said "sweared," are you old enough to be playing video games? Secondly, nothing turns you into a piece of toxic trash except you - that's 100% on you.

Bitchy posts like this are nothing but pathetic. If you can't carry a game, that's also on you - we're talking normals. Below bronze. Play level dumpster. We all lose them, however to lose a whopping 10 in a row and blame someone else - start looking at yourself.

What I see from your match history? Poor builds.

You should listen to your own words sometimes.

I'm not the one getting butthurt over normals.

Pointing out his faults are not only his teams' =/= bitching.

No, actually, the guy above you, the one pointing out that your whining about your perceived "whining" is hypocritical, is absolutely correct. You're also being a total dick for no good reason but to troll. You're pathetic.

To whine about whining is hypocritical. You can phrase it however else you want, that's exactly what you just did. Pathetic.

MrPerson105 votes

Cute, however I'm not whining at all.

If something virtual is affecting you in reality and outside of the game to a point that you physically or verbally lash out at it (see OP), you need to go the fuck outside and find something less frustrating to do with your life. Smoke a joint for god sake and chill out, life's too short to be losing your shit over a video game - moreso a FREE one.

Pointing out that nothing is going to change because he posted on boards and that becoming toxic is nobody's fault but his? Funny, it's the truth.

All you kids backing each other up over the internet when you like to cry about a game that you don't have to pay for, don't have to play, and get nothing out of but a virtual satisfaction.

Let's not forget, no change was implimented.

Edit: in reference to last line, his point is 100% irrelevent and in reality means he has blown up over nothing. Still got a problem? Take it up with a psychologist.

I agree about your main point. I don't really understand the motivation behind this change. I guess it could be to promote fewer coop v ai games for a statistic or something, but those are still people playing the game. The only other thing I can think of is that it gates even further the player's ability to acquire IP, a task already difficult at best due to the meager rewards given per game.

Really, Riot, why is this necessary? I've played successful games like Hawken where it takes me 1/5th of the time to get a new champion (mech) using the in-game currency.

**edit: oh, I didn't actually have this problem. Haha. Whoops. (Still want better IP returns though!)

Not getting the FWotD bonus only applies to intro bots, if you are above level 10, as stated by another commenter

I got a FWotD last night from an intermediate Summoner's Rift game. Unless you are playing on the test realms I think it might be a fluke, I don't know how IP is handled on the test realms.

I just wish they could make the bots good enough that I could more realistically practice Top/Jungle builds.

I've found that 3v3s are great for trying tops and jungles. With tops you're still 1v1ing and the items aren't that different. And with jungle it's basically the same as you gank a lot too. That's how I figured out why I sucked at ganking as Jarvan IV, in 5v5's I EQed then chased but in 3v3s I chased then EQed. No idea why I did it differently in 5v5s vs 3v3s though.

As for the original poster, are you sure you didn't do intro bots? >___>

To be honest i thought this was removed like... last season. I'm not sure why they changed it, since honestly the IP system sucks alot as it is already.

I personally play ARAMs most of the time, but i'll do a blind normal to get my win since its less random and i know i can do most of it myself. I do think they should still have the IP bonus on co op games though...sometimes you dont' want to play with the scrubs.
