Is Lol worth playing anymore? Should I quit or change my attitude towards it?

The title says it all. Im tired of playing games, where all lanes feed, they blame jungler, or mid (my main lanes usually), if im mid, jungler does nothing at all, and the enemy's focus u cause u are the only fed person on team, so its a 5 vs 1 for 20 min till surr. After a few games like this, im super salty, and even with a good team, i get pissed, flame and sometimes afk. I know, its wrong, but im not a mentally strong person to deal with all the negativity.

TBH i wouldnt mind losing if there wasant any toxicity at all. I knw ppl are ppl, and can have a bad game... but this happened way too many times, and to the point where they blame you, for not carrying them.

I quit league for 3-4 months, and came back recently to check out the new que/patches ect.

Realized the toxic community still stayed... the only way i see to fix this is to get a 5 man team, but thats near to impossible, none of my friends play league.

Should I maybe quit and stop dealing with this bulsh*t, or can i do something to make this less painfull?

Thoughts?

Either you try to toughen yourself up mentally or leave it

I wouldn't really say League is worth getting into, honestly, not if you don't find it fun

You need change your attitude. Your approach to this is going to entirely be the reason for why you have problems you do.

You are playing with other people. This means that there are going to be things written in-game that you may not like some of the time. You are playing a PvP game. This means you are going to lose half your games. And a good percentage of those are going to be because of you, to one extent or another whether you see it or not.

Even if you got a 5 man premade, some people in that premade are going to lose i.e. "feed" in some games.

You have to change your outlook. Or stick to modern single player only games, because that's the **only **way to make it so you won't have to deal with people and win every match.

Nah this game isn't worth playing it's trash, the community is nothing but toxic most of the time people just flame you for their mistakes or you get trolled 3 out of 5 games. And when you decide I'm sick and tired of being trolled and call people out on their bullshit. They make you seem like the bad guy in turn they report you. You have no idea how many times I called mid in blind pick only to have someone say "Nah F U I'm going mid" and lock in or Duo mid or w/e lane it is and then they get your role and go figure they Massively feed. I've played this game for 4 years I've gotten multiple accounts to diamond or higher and played every champion over a hundred times easily so this opinion is not just coming from some ignorant bronzey. The game itself would be good but they have the worse ban system I have ever seen out of any game and I have easily played over 300 games in my lifetime at least I currently own 172 on steam alone. I've never been banned once on any game until I played this game. I had an account for 3 years with every champion every single rune and over 176 skins and 2 games in a row I got a trio queue who were trolling. I was pissed off because it was ranked they all fed and they all cried to me and they all reported me two games in a row next thing I know my account was permanently banned for hundreds of years from now. The ban system on this game doesn't care what anyone does who is ruining the game for you or what they are doing to constantly troll like being an ap jg and your top laner is taking your first blue then following you around in the jg etc. I tried to fight it and ask support for help they said nothing they could do pretty much. So down the drain with all the money I spent on that account over the years which turned out to be roughly around 1700 dollars that they told me go Fk yourself over. And the funniest thing is you could be pissed off because some guy is wasting your time by trolling your entire team in ranked or something and if you call him out you will now be in the wrong. This games community is comprised of mostly children or at least maturity wise who suck at the game and decide to ruin and waste everyone time. Even if your team is down 30 kills 15 minutes in your team 80 percent of the time will not surrender so you then have to waste 45 mins in a game that could have ended in 20 minutes if your team was intelligent enough to just surrender. It takes way to much time to earn champions by means of just playing and earning IP. I've done the math and calculated it to get one Champion that cost 6300 ip, you are literally looking at playing around 80 games for just one champion. They make earning champions this ridiculous so that you will spend your hard earned money to get them instead of wasting hours and hours of time now do the math on 80 games 80 normal games will take at minimum 20 mins the average game takes around 35 minutes. 80x 35 is 2800 minutes you have to put in to earn one champion. And you get even less IP for losing so its possible it could take much longer then this to earn a champion. Now granted their are players that are very low skilled and just toxic and then their are players like me that pretty much rock at every game they play and have to literally carry every single game now you might think I am just bragging or you might even go as far as to look up my the name of this account which btw is just a smurf so don't waste your time or you might even think I sound like a douche but that is not the case It is actually extremely stressful to be good at this game because you realize how terrible every other player is and all the mistakes they make that can result in losses to your game as well as get you killed for their mistakes etc. However a good player will tell you this though treat other players like bots because they cannot be relied on until much higher elos such as diamond up. Now people will say you should change your attitude but the problem with that is this game is very soul sucking if you are a good player. What I have done ever since my main account got banned was just enter a game and type /ignore all immediately because most of the time people chatting have nothing to offer to the game they are just lonely, and talking in this game can just result to a ban if you actually talk strategy instead of rubbish because the low skilled players take offense to everything becauase they all think they are pro because they watch a stream or two but they have no mechanics or idea how to actually play the game rotate take objectives etc. The ban system on this game is extremely flawed and unfair and if you actually put the time in to earn champions and your account gets banned my condolences unless you are truly a toxic player that deserves it but they don't care about that they just want your money and figure if they ban you you will make a new account and give them more money anyways. Another thing about this game if you are competitive gamer like myself is that you literally cannot earn money from this game at all. The owner of this game doesn't even pay the pro players. They get paid off of their sponsors solely which recently Reginald the leader of team TSM had a petition of some sorts signed by all pro players to fight this that's how greedy the owner of this game is. So my advice to you is this game is just not worth playing don't change your attitude unless you are just being ignorant and spouting racism etc. They need to change the ban system lower the amount of time it takes to earn champions and remove the real toxic trash from this game It amazes me you can even be banned for verbal abuse when their is a mute button. So I end with this if you are like me and feel more like this game is a chore or something to do rather then fun I suggest you don't play it anymore because this game will not last many more years from now anyways and by then their will be much more fun not greedy companies making great games.

_* Riot have banned me for using diffrend custom skins and they are banning all player who use custom skins.

  • The community is toxic trash with a big amount of children that cant play.
  • You weast you time AND money._ It just isnt worth it i played a lot and it is just horrible how toxick u will be with other players to.... i hate myself for it that i started to play this shit really is horrible...

Ominpresent sayed it too: "Now people will say you should change your attitude but the problem with that is this game is very soul sucking if you are a good player." or if u try to be a good player. Go play better games whitout a fckng greedy owner in wich u can get a skin free.... like Hots. It exist better games than lol... its juts a toxic remnant of a game that was once good.
