"I'm Done"

King Rei··7 votes·1,435 views

This statement is widely heard all too often. Karma last game, I wouldn't give her blue and then she would say... Karma: "I'm done, fucking troll Udyr"... and of course I was glad she didn't get it, because she died to Akali a minute later (basically every time). The Blitz. Cait pings for him to fall back because Akali is roaming top and bottom constantly for easy kills because she is ahead and they don't have a sweeper yet. Blitz dies and says "I'm done, Cait wtf are you doing not helping me?"... We lost, and yet what I didn't like was how much of a negative attitude these players had. Some people don't seem to realize that being negative invites others to be negative. No you don't have to turn around and give them a taste of their own medicine, but certainly when you are already frustrated while losing, you are much more tempted to. Look, people who say "I'm done" " or wtf gd troll" or anything negative, I understand how you feel when losing and I know it's frustrating, but outright flaming your own team doesn't help anything. If you were playing with friends, would you be yelling at them and telling them to quit and uninstall and be calling them trolls or anything bad? I think not. Have some common respect for others and at least try to be neutral, and who knows, you may find yourself in more games with turnarounds where you normally would have lost. A bad attitude alone can easily change the tide of the game, as it's very distracting, and tends to bring about your worst gameplay.

tl;dr : Negative or bad attitudes need to be halted, as they don't help anything. At least stay neutral, and try to maintain a calm state. Just breathe

funny. it seems you are the toxic player. The game you mention clearly shows that you threw the game the worst. You don't give blue to mid karma? that's ok. what do you use it for? you havee the LEAST damage to champions for udyr the "jungler". You barely influence the game with your ridiculous assists/kills. The lowest contributing stats next to gnar.

Please stop playing a jungler. You are toxic to the team and will lose more games than ever carry them.

Toxic...Because I would like it if people were less negative? What? I was even doing my best to be positive when they weren't. I don't think you should assume anything, as lacking knowledge of an even doesn't make you and expert of it. Also I'm not sure why I would have most damage to champions. As a Jungler, I don't tend to sit around in lane harassing a champion, but instead gank. I was also building tank items and the first and only one on my team to buy Oracles lens f or Akali. Of course I only got one or two really good uses out of it because we basically got rofl stomped. I just. I don't get you. Have you made yourself out to be a magical detective that can recreate a whole scenario with a stat sheet?

You are just passive aggressive. You speak a good game like you are a saint but you obviously cause the game to be a lost, to be a negative environment. You do nothing to cause your team to win but pretend to be the mighty saint.

Stay in bronze or silver. You players are the most toxic of them all because you don't try to win in ranked but cause a direct lost while blaming the negative community when they are only negative because you are toxic to the team.

You assume you are right, because what you say is right to you. I'm not a great of greats, and I know I make mistakes. All I'm asking is for is for people to clear their minds more often so they don't lose focus while behind and likely angry. You are here to attack me, and that's quite clear. Why?

Because you're acting like you're not part of the problem.

Toxic is not about have a good K/D ratio or game stats, it's about your attitude. I can already tell by yours that you're probably one of those toxic players that rage when someone plays different than you, builds different items than you would or has a bad game. Talking negatively gives the impressions that you're giving up, thus inviting more negative attitude from your team and in the end it just completely crushing the team's hope of winning. That's why if you're feeling negative about bad plays and dying, you should keep it to yourself or better yet try to do better. Negativity never solves anything.

Nope, not me. I'm not a rager. I often try to rally people. Where are you getting this?

lol. so passive aggressive. playing victim. good luck with that in life.

Lol, hilarious. It's clear that you either didn't read the original post or have you massive reading comprehension issues. I'm going with the former since your post makes no sense whatsoever unless the only thing you got out of it was that the OP said "I'm done" partway through his match, which he didn't. At least you weren't being a jerk about it like Xystris though, who is bleeding hostility out at every turn.

Konidias is so far the only one that has made any sort of meaningful reply to the OP.

it's sad you need to feel defensive when the truth is told. You take hostility for honesty.

Breaking news. People who consistently win more games than they lose do not have an issue with rage in games. What you toxic players don't understand is that when you do all the right things in the game you will win often than lose. If you do lose there will always be another game.

Keep raging and playing victims in the boards. Most won't care. I don't care. I actually trying to help but honestly is too brutal for your way of life.

Lol, nope. You're the most passive aggressive and hostile of anyone in this thread with your constant ad hominems. I don't rage in games, and in fact, I have had someone tell me that I apologize too much and that it's not the LCS, so no one cares about your mistakes. No one believes that you're trying to 'help'. You just spew vitriol and try to claim the moral high ground.

It's funny that you are quick to label me and express feelings about me as if you've actually met me or we've spoken, or have at least played a game with me. Furthermore, you're contradicting yourself in saying that I'm weak and have to "play victim", while at the same time saying I'm being defensive, meaning you see that I'm standing up for myself. If I were all about blaming people and giving up, why would I still be playing ranked? I lost 7 games in a row and still kept playing. I'm on another losing streak now and may be demoted the next game I play, but I'm going to play again anyway because I know I'll put forth the effort, as will whoever I end up playing with. When I first picked up ranked again a few weeks, I skipper at least one set of promos and ended up at silver 2. Now I'm on the verge of dropping to silver 5 as my win rate has steadily decreased. Once again I'll keep chugging away because regardless of what happens, I enjoy playing this game.

No one should play mid without knowing how to win their lane without blue. You should always be prepared to be at a disadvantage in lane. Some junglers, like Pantheon or Sejuani, need the second or third blue before their mana issues level out. While I was maining mid with Lux, I learned first thing how to manage my mana without the benefit of blue. If I got it? Great, now I can go nuts for a while. If not? Doesn't set me back anything and I keep on.

As far as the "I'm done" folks, I've had too many matches where folks started on like that, with the general "We're going to lose" or "We can't win now." If no one rallied them, yeah it was often times a loss. But just as many times, I got folks to get their head back in the game and we won. The game is never over until you see the Victory or Defeat splash screen.

This! A million times over! It still surprises me when the jungler offers me blue, just because I've come to never expect/need it to win lane.

@xystris, I don't think you know what Toxic means. You seem to think it means doing something that might not be in the best interest of the team, while in truth it's about the attitude you bring to the match. You might want to re-evaluate all of your posts on this thread with that in mind.

This statement is widely heard all too often. Karma last game, I wouldn't give her blue and then she would say... Karma: "I'm done, fucking troll Udyr"... and of course I was glad she didn't get it, because she died to Akali a minute later (basically every time).

or maybe... just maybe... she died because she didn't have blue buff and couldn't get that last cast off because she was oom. insert troll face here

While it's understandable in a way... it's also not. Like... if a person is doing bad... maybe they need the buff more than you? Sure, there is a risk of the enemy killing them and getting the buff, but what were you really going to do with it? I feel like if a person is doing bad, they need all the help they can get.

It's pretty troll to avoid helping them or giving them buffs because you have judged them as being bad and not deserving of any help. Everybody has bad games, and it doesn't help when your own team is keeping you down.

I typically get over 10 kills a game, but occasionally I have one of those off games where I end up like 5/7/3, and every one of those games my team is telling me I suck and I'm doing everything wrong, etc... But if they only knew that I don't typically play that bad and it's just bad luck or unfortunate circumstances that lead me to doing badly in that particular game. Denying someone buffs that could help them turn their game around is just completely lacking faith in your team and you are doomed to lose.

First off, I never once told them they were bad. She died first to Akali while trying to dIve her. No jungle interaction from either side. I told her it would be fine and that I would go help. I was taking blue mostly to help gain level 9 as quick as possible for oracles lens to gank for her. However, believe it or not, without spirit stone, udyr has mana issues in jungle, so I normally only farm with phoenix and turtle, unless I'm running spirit stone. In lane ganking, if a fight is drawn out, only blue buff will keep udyr from going dry before a potential mana item. Perhaps I made the mistake of specifically calling them out for their phrase of "I'm done", and could have been more general in my example. I strive to fight negativity as often as possible in my games. Sometimes it works and games turn around, while other times people stay angry or negative and we generally end up losing. All I want is for people to take a deep breath and stay calm and level headed. I really don't understand how that makes me a troll or toxic. Are these now defined by anyone someone disagrees with? Edit: this is my opinion, but blue helps me help other lanes more early to mid and I generally prefer map wide progression over a single lane enjoying spam happiness. Most don't care. Some obsess over having blue as if it's their divine right. This is not to say I never give blue though.
