Muting everyone at the start of a game has resulted in 100xs more pleasant games

No stress, no flame, not having to read flame between other people, just me, music and my performance in the game. It's very pleasant and fun, anyone else do this? If not I recommend it.

I do it any time I'm wanting to climb. Chat is useless.

But then you don't get to play with me, and here me tell you how good you are doing D:

But then you cant communicate with your team and are basically a useless asset. Pleasant for you, maybe. For the team carrying you, not so much.

Your winrate sort of speaks for itself.. It should not be that low.

I do that very often now. I'll let everyone on my team know in champ select that I mute everyone, and to please communicate with me using pings. It usually works out nicely, the flame shield works flawlessly.

that is why im in favor of removing chat from the game all together cant flame rage or be a toxic ahole if there is no chat

I don't mute all often but I don't type or read chat too much unless I deem it helpful. I mostly communicate with pings and that is typically enough.

I am pretty sure everyone in silver would play better if chat was disabled for that entire Elo.

Everyone thinks they understand the game, but they don't. Everyone thinks they can give good advice, but they don't. Everyone thinks insulting teammates will improve their play, but it doesn't.

All honesty, I love to troll around in the chat, but that's an opinion.

As well, I've heard of people listening to music while playing League, but doesn't it distract you from actually playing?
