Sick Of People In League

SoKoIsSoNasty··2 votes·494 views

Honestly I am getting really pissed off at this community. It has the worst community in gaming. I play WoW and counter strike ect and I have never encountered a community so toxic and annoying. IF you are in bronze you can never get out because you have to climb the ladder. In over to climb the ladder you have to win. Every other game. I win one then toxic player intentionally feeding comes in. OR an AFK. I also cannot dodge people who are just generally being pieces of shit in chat because of penalty. Also once in game people can do as they choose and go top with a bot lane char or pick a adc for support and farm off the adc.

Ladder is cool in all thoughts but if you are in a lower tier like me it is hell. I don't know if it is like this in other divisions but I am getting really pissed off. I want to keep playing but I honestly have no idea why I keep playing a game for 40 minutes because the toxic player won't surrender and maybe other still want to play.

I don't even care about losing, You can learn from losing. But toxic people or just generally feeders or AFK is where I get mad. Why do I lose points when I AM trying? IF I am going to lose points how can I gain 15 from a win then get into a completely toxic game or AFK and lose 15?

Im not just talking about 1 or 2 games here and there. I am litterally talking every other game. I NEVER write articles about any game or have any issues playing online games. I understand it is the territory of the internet. BUT I have never had a game effect my personal game so much so that it has become so unpleasant to play in ranked matches I don't even want to que.

From the "Im going this position no matter what pick" Or "im going to feed in chat" Or "WOW you're so bad holy shit gg" to every player on the team when someone dies is like omfg get me out of this game.

I know this has become a rant but has anyone had this experience or is it just me ?

I know there is a lot of young kids on this game but jesus man it is insane.

IF anyone knows how to combat this problem of getting out of bronze hell please speak up. I usually mute first time I hear something like "gg" after 1 person dies.

And ourselves for allowing that anger to take over and leading us to forget what this game is all about - it's just a game.

I agree, I feel like once the game does not go their way they give up or just immediately default to talking trash and/or feeding.

Lol, dude.....you average a 2.0 kda. You don't not lose because of feeders, as in a lot of cases, you are the feeder.

I agree, trying new characters out does suck.

Yeah, well maybe you shouldn't be trying out new champs in ranked mode. You are the reason your team is losing. You are the feeder that you speak of in your thread.

I can't particularly speak about Bronze toxicity, because I'm lucky enough to have skipped it in all 3 seasons that I've played ranked so far. Toxicity is still a problem, of course, but rarely to the point where it's impossible to work with. In my experience, most players are actually trying to win, and the toxic players show their colors the instant something happens that might prevent them from winning. From Silver upward, there's a high enough proportion of players willing to adjust for the team that we are often able to organize around a toxic player or two.

I myself tend to focus on defusing arguments before they get really heated. Portraying a light and positive attitude, even if I don't necessarily feel that way, has saved a great number of games from deteriorating into storms of caustic one-liners that ruin the game for both teams.

I agree with that, Bronze is really tough tho. I reached 30 and 3-5 games were extremely toxic so i got in trouble then. I got to promos like 4 times but then team again. Not saying im jesus with kills but atleast I am not trying to screw the team over.

The penalty doesn't affect your MMR. Feel free to dodge to your heart's content.

SoKoIsSoNasty1 votes

Yeah that is true but you have to wait for the time and it gets annoying.

SmokingPuffin1 votes

Gotta weigh that time against how annoying your team is.

SoKoIsSoNasty1 votes

Yeah I guess you're right. I need to just pick my battles wisely. I just really need to get to a higher elo where people work together.

I'm in Bronze... and haven't seen this "terrible community" people speak of. There are toxic people in every tier, it's not a Bronze exclusive thing. Saying you played Counter Strike and it was less toxic? What back woods server did you play on? Cal was incredibly toxic - or did you never do ranked play?
