I'm pretty sure I hate this game.

I used to love it. I used to play all the time. I used to grind out tons of matches trying to higher elo and all that. But... I don't anymore. Almost every time I play now I just end up angry or depressed. I hate the new queue... I don't like the overloaded flavor of the month champs... I can't stand the community. It's awful. Trying to shotcall is a waste of time that just gets ragers focused on you. Playing anything outside of the meta champs gets the flamers flaming you... And everyone is so toxic and immature. I've met maybe ONE player in the last twenty games who used chat for something besides trash talking like an insecure little kid or flaming everyone because he was tilted or just toxic.

I... don't know why I bother playing anymore. It's not to climb ranks. I gave up ranked after the new queue dropped. It's not for fun because LORD knows I don't have any of that anymore. I just... have nothing else to do to kill time after work I guess. It's depressing and awful and I don't know what to do beyond... post about it and share the pain. Am I the only one?

Oh yeah I tried ranked earlier in the week and that's basically what happened.

So I went back to normals, I still enjoy normal games and ARAM lots of ARAM games.

you don't have to be ranked, its all imaginary and pointless, play the game to enjoy yourself, got get your sense of achievement in other parts of your life.

That's just it man... I don't even enjoy many normal games. The community is just GOD AWFUL.

My computer is too old to play any new games :/. I wanted to play fallout 4 but nope 8 year comp can't handle it. and at the moment, we had renovations and my computer desk broke in the move and no one has bothered to get a new one, since the renovation isn't done away. So I am just playing on my notebook which is newer (a yearish) but I bought it for work not games its not the most powerful thing.

I do kind of want a new game to play, as long as its not by blizzard, I haven't played a FPS since CoD MW2, honestly I don't enjoy fast paced shooters CoD4 was more my style than CoD MW2. I always hated CS and starcraft which is why I didn't even play multiplayer online games until I was 23.

League being free makes it way easier to just keep playing rather than spending money on a new game. Most of my $$ goes into in person games like MTG and board games.

Okay, I'm going to sound like an asshole I already know that, but I'll be careful with my word choice. Here goes: If you don't enjoy League anymore, leave. It's as simple as that. There is no point in posting a sob story (because that's what this is, even if you didn't make it with that intention) on the forums, because most people would reply to this with something along the lines of "OMG U NOOB JUST LEAVE LOSER U MAD CUZ U BRONZE". I'm trying to say this as politely as possible when I say, just leave. You are doing nobody, ESPECIALLY yourself, any good. I know it feels good to get it off your chest, and since you have, I suggest deleting this post before the highly toxic community you speak of shows up. Once again I apologize for sounding like an asshole and I wish you the best of luck in finding a new game to love and play the hell out of.

This was far more polite that I really expected from the forums. Thanks.

And trust me, I've thought about it. Just not able to find another game that's hooked me like League used to.
