Smack talking is just what feeding players can blame losses on
Someone smack talking you doesn't lose you the game.
Your ACTIONS do.
You can MUTE the smack talker, I CANT MAKE YOU PLAY BETTER.
So if you are 1/11 in lane, I'm gonna smack talk the SHIT out of you, and no, the loss is not on me, it's on you.
But because riot gives into hypersensitivity, i'll be the one getting punished.
