Toxicity isn't the real problem with this game.

Do you know what is? Those bastards who troll pick, intentionally throw games in order to prevent others from climbing, and idiots who split push while playing ADC.

If a 14 year old online telling you he 'fucked your mom' is taking your self worth away then you have bigger problems than just that.

Isn't that also toxicity? Kind of the same thing.

Most people don't take offense to a 14 year old ranting, the issue is they would rather have a fun game than deal with nonsense. People play League to have fun, not baby sit a 14 year old with issues. : /

Thing is when the adc and support go 0-2 0-2 in lane, and the ADC just basically gives up on the game and does the whole mindless splitpush thing and doesn't really actually try to win the game anymore, This is indeed a toxic attitude.

A couple streamers I've watched who have played on NA mostly but also on EUW and other servers say this is a big issue in NA, for many NA players, if they aren't the ones carrying the game or if they are doing poorly they immediately shut down and stop really trying to win.

One streamer said: "I would rather a player cuss me out and tell me they hope I die, but they keep playing and trying to win, than a player who says 'oops sorry' and has a 'good attitude' but just keeps running it down" And I agree with this 100%.

Well I feel like its more the extreme unbalance this season and some previous ones as well that really gets people mad first including me. If you have to deal with the same broken stuff over and over since its ranked it gets old and annoying really fast whether it be because of runes/items/champions. Combine that with being unlucky to have the laners that hard feed or with OTHER toxic people, and you cant really blame them for getting so mad. Bad games happen for me and everyone, but theres just so much different factors that lead to toxicity and it sucks when things aren't remotely fair. Even if I get to play the best stuff in the game and win im not happy because it doesnt even feel deserved as well, playing a game ONLY to win instead of also have fun isn't what games are about IMO.
