I'm tired of being the nice guy in games

In my games I'm always the one warding, grouping, pinging , not raging, I ping when I need to, when I tank I peel for the carries, and I'm sick of it. I try to be the best teammate I can but I still get raged at/ ppl don't care. Like one game I was in they were pushing on our inhib and our top teleports top to save his tier 1 tower from minions. Our jg then walks out to get his gromp and leaves me to guard the inhib because the other two teammates were dead. I ping for assistance and then say in chat "hey guys could you help me mid" I then get raged at and they report me. This is happening so much to me recently and its frustrating to say the least. Sometimes I wish I could be the guy to just ignore everyone and do my own thing, but in the end I I know I'm to nice and I would end up helping and jot raging anyway.

I say pick a champion that has power over your teammates. Anivia Alistar Bard Blitzcrank are all nice examples of champions who can "accidently" cause their teammates to die. For me just knowing I have the power to do it usually makes me feel better and IF I do get mad, well I mean the person DID already say "you're so bad you should die" so might as well bard ultimate him so the enemy team can catch up :).

Yep! :-D. I never do it in ranked (always just mute) but in normals if I get a rager that pushes me over the edge I'll troll. Like one time I sold all my items on Kassadin and bought only move speed and ran around the enemy base rift walking. They couldn't catch me XD so I finally executed my self in their fountain. It was beautiful.

Yeah, toxic players are toxic. It's why I switched to Twisted Treeline. If it ever becomes as popular and well respected a game mode as Summoner's Rift, I'm sure 3v3 will be just as toxic, but until that day, I'm doing great, and on that day... well... at least the average game length is shorter and I don't have to listen to the same toxic player for quite as long.

But seriously, a game that relies on advanced teamwork but has very limited forms of real-time communication? Yeah, there's going to be problems. Maybe if we could have voice chat or make our own custom Pings, teamwork opportunities would open up. I for one, would love to have a "missing vision" ping that I could use in conjunction with an "on my way" ping to indicate that I'm warding/checking, or an "assist me" ping to indicate that I need an escort, or a "danger" ping to indicate that I'm not going to follow you into unwarded territory.

Warding, ping, peeling, and grouping are traits of being a good player in general not being the "nice guy." Honestly if someone is just beyond reason and refuse to stop raging I just mute them because they will say some of the dumbest shit that will tilt you and fuck up your next few games. Be liberal with that power. Someone call you a dick sucking, bleach drinking, fucktard? Mute. Simple.
