Riot encourages trolling.

It seems like this liberal world has taken over video-games too. Now everything and anything is offensive. You can't kindly ask your mid laner to "please stop fighting the yasuo" because it opens up doors to hell from your teammates.

Now now, you better not suggest anything to anybody else, because then you'll be the "toxic one" in the team and give reasons for "everyone" to just turn on you, or specifically those you've given suggestions to.

Of course people would assume it's the way I suggested that they perceived offense, but it's not that at all. It's 100% pride, embarrassment, and frustration from their performance as a player that has them tilted, and immediately on the defense. And while I specifically point out what they can do to immediately improve, examples: (don't walk into the enemy jg if you don't know where he is/without wards), or (please don't fight yasuo again) and their response is "but I'm ryze." or "Shut up" riot has taught us that there's nothing you can do, so accept the free lose. Free lose because the system is broken and if you have 1 troll on your team, chances are that you will have another, and riot expects you to carry them to victory, because your opponents are noobs too. But as the meta switches more over to teamwork and noobs rush into mid lane to fight asap without any resources of conscious decision making... it's a free lose.

So yes, riot forces you to suck the trolls off, and just take it from the back in silence.

Dynamic queue is to thank for this, because odds are, those two trolls are duo and that's why you got paired with them in this COMPLETELY UNBALANCED SYSTEM.

Its not that Riot encourages trolling, but it actually discourages retaliations. Things u are talking about are not trolling. Things you are talking about is YOU thinking that you are protagonist in every game you are in. That its up to you to tell people what to do. To give commands. To criticize people for their mistakes. Only real form of trolling is INTENTIONAL FEEDING. And not going 0:15 due to stupid plays or bad decisions, but actually entering game with intention to just die without fighting or trying. Things you are talking about are called "PLAYING THE FREAKING GAME". If you call person troll because he makes bad decisions or if he overestimates his abilities and his champion, then u are just being toxic.

Its not up to you to teach people how to play. Its not your job to criticize them, to tell them what to do, what not to do. Its not your choice what someone will pick, its not your choice what someone will build. This is a game, where people should experiment, learn from their mistakes and failures and everyone has right to play this game without anyone telling them what to do or not to do in game.

There's no difference between bronze and gold. There will always be idiots who have no idea what to do in the game. Idiots who just want to team fight, and have no idea what collecting resources means. Idiots who don't itemize against builds because they have no idea what itemization is. And these idiots will always be a disadvantage you have on the team. Dont let your MMR get too high or else you will always be paired with these idiots, since their MMR is trash, in order to balance your team. Riot logic, although true at heart, is shitty.
