The ultimate rules of League of legends (pt.1)

1.: You are not perfect in any sense.

Many people don't get this, and usually when they do something bad, they blame everyone else, they try to blame it on the lag, or the opness of the opposing champion(s) or the worst one: the enemy being lucky.

• 1/a. Blaming your team won't result in anything positive.

Trust me, it will just weaken the blamed person's self esteem, and make their game worse by a bit. Or he will just assume you are an agressive, idiotic rager and he will mute you. (yes, people. there is a mute button.)

• 1/b. The enemy is not lucky.

League of legends is a program. A game that has no random elements except crit chances and gamebreaking bugs. Aside from that, it doesn't involve luck at all.

2.: People who say the following sentences should be time banned because they don't understand the concept of competitively playing with and against people:

"Easy" - In all honesty, screw you. We get that we lost because you were better. It's perfectly fine. You won. You are happy. But saying "easy" at the end of the game is like kicking into a dead dog. It's the biggest douchebaggery you could ever do.

"Noob" - People who have the courage to play ranked in these times should not be considered newbies. People who are on your level should not be considered noobs, because they are on your level which would conclude that you are a noob too. Also, it's really overused.

"(insert any obscene raging here)" - You are being so hateful that you begin to curse all over your teammates? Really? Even if you are a "ladderclimber", league is just a game. If you lose a ranked game, it's just one game out of the thousands you may play. Lost a promo? Don't be sad, because someone in the enemy won a game after a bad losing streak and they are really happy and thought you played good in that game. Or something like that. When i lose and i feel bad and a little bit angry i always think of this.

3.: It's NEVER over.

Everyone knows those doomsayers, right? First blood goes to the enemy and they spam "gg" all chat. Remember, no game is over until the very end. I had a lot of comeback games because i'm more of a mid-to-lategame player, and i know this very well. The biggest comeback of mine was from 2-10 i think. Never give up, and never lose your focus by blaming others. Maybe you needed that one bit of focus to be succesful and come back from that bad situation. Who knows?

4.: Let no meta be your shackle.

Try out anything what you want to try. (not in ranked of course) But if you have a champion that you feel comfortable playing with and you play good with it, then pick it in ranked and ignore the hateful people. If you like to play Teemo, play him. If you like playing Galio, play him. If you have a special, strange ap tank Jax build and it worked several times, try it out. Don't be scared.

5.: You are playing with people.

Sometimes my heart breaks when i see things like one person, a living, breathing thing saying: "i hope you get cancer" or something like that. You are talking to another living, breathing thing. You're wishing him to die the most horrible death known just because he got caught? Really? You're not talking to NPC's, you are talking to living people, who got home from their weekday and just want to play league to relax. They have mothers, they have relatives, friends, problems, etc. Please think about this before you say something hateful as this.
