Suggestion: Expanding Communication Options
Suggestion: Give people the option to opt into voice chat with their team at the beginning of games or in champ select. Also expanding the ping system to assist those who don't want to talk or are not fast typers.
In turn my hope is that a change like this would encourage more competitive and fluent games while also lowering toxicity because it adds a humane element to communication. I believe typing takes out the humanity and causes people to fight more than if they were talking and trying to win together in voice. While also trying not to alienate those who don't want to talk.
I'd like to add that while there still will be some flaming, people are less likely to flame over difference opinion that can be discussed in voice while also playing and not having to stop and type. It will defuse situations more effectively and lead to more enjoyable games for vocal players. voice chat would lead to more personable interactions with less type wars over whos opinion is better.
- Note this is just a prototype idea so please comment to build upon the idea and not just attack me thank you!
