Monothematic solo que, and Riots perplexing answer to the problem.
Everyone has delt with the frustrations of solo que, rank or draft. We've all been subjected to the random trolls ever present in the game. Be it extreme "non-meta" picks, feeding, or the dreaded combination of the aforementioned. This always triggers a toxic reaction from players, and sadly almost always a waste of 20 mins. While we dislike the toxic player we cant help but understand where he is coming from. Even the most docile people have felt the urge to let lose on people who intentionally throw games. Riot has failed to address the root cause of the toxicity, there answer is to ban the person being toxic and saying "mean words" with out an attempt at understanding why this person is acting like this. Yes some people are just toxic and agreeably they should be cut from the game. But i would have to say that most people end up just snapping over the real problem, the players who genuinely enjoy making other people suffer. While these people have the option of muting, or simply not reading chat to avoid the toxic person, the poor soul who has probably had 1 of these people in the last 5 games he played has no escape. We've all heard the saying sticks and stones before and honestly what better argument is there to this? Now there are game modes that these players can go to enjoy there "non-meta" picks- custom or even blind pick. I end this post with a mere suggestion.. Make Ranked ques, and Draft pick a selection for more serious players who enjoy the competition and want to win, and making it an option to report players who have this kind of behavior in said ques.....
Because you can not eradicate a virus without tracing it back to its roots.....
