I can't be bothered to play this game anymore.

The reason is simple. This game has been overrun by children or immature teenagers that think they have the right to talk down to everyone just because they have the mindset they are good at the game. Each game is a fight in team chat over "Who got ADC first" or "Who is more MLG" or "I'm afking if you feed". It's honestly fucking exhausting, and playing League has gotten to be more of a chore than a relaxing time for me. I always try very hard to calm everyone down and promote teamwork, but they continue fighting with eachother, throwing games, and spamming "GG REPORT NOOBLORD THRESH" in all chat 5 times after games end. Below is a summary of my last 5 ranked games (Not in any order):

Game 1:

A Nidalee was forced to ADC because she wasn't paying attention in champ select. The Nidalee then proceeded to afk at the 20~~ minute mark because it was her bedtime.

Game 2:

2 People were fighting in champ select. Both of them ended up taking TP Revive and intentionally feeding, and of course were cussing eachother out all game and telling eachother to drink various cleaning products.

Game 3:

We had a first time Azir, and our bot lane was a duo that apparently got in a fight in a skype call and started intentionally feeding. We were 30 kills behind by 15 minutes, and both of our bot laners AND Azir ended up afking. I afked too, as I wasn't going to waste 5 minutes of my time waiting to surrender and lose.

Game 4:

Our Graves afked for the better half of the game to go eat dinner. Because we had no ADC, we could not pressure objectives and ultimately lost solely because of an afk (I was 29/6 with warwick).

Game 5:

This was the most obnoxious game I have ever experienced. 2 Members of the enemy team ( ) were smurfing and talked colossal shit after every kill they got. 2 members (Prolly a duo) of our team afked in base just to argue with them in all chat. At the 20 minute mark, we were very far behind and the 2 people didn't surrender simply because they wanted to "settle shit with those smurfing assholes".

So that's it. I've given this game enough chances, and probably if it wasn't for the huge amount of money I've sunk into this game, I would've quit 6 months ago. The only way I am coming back is to occasionally play normals or if URF comes back. Riot literally doesn't care about any of this though. I already spent money so I'm no longer a giant dollar sign to them. They don't care about the verbal hazing their players go through on a rapid basis. They don't care about the children that manipulate their parents to spend money on this game for them. All they care about is their LCSBIGPLAY$ and the literal pool of 16 viable meta champs that can be played in the LCS.

So long, I'm off to Smite or some other game that isn't overrun by absurdly toxic kids yet.
