Proof Riot is creating a toxic environment....
Just got out of a game where I was Irelia top vs Trundle. I got an early kill on him, but due to me fat fingering my tiamat and potion in the second fight I barely lost to him with him surviving on 30 hp. Of course he got 1 kill so therefore he backed, and now auto wins the lane at that point, and proceeds to run me down by planting his tower and 9999% slow on me and bites and ults, and 2 shots me from there on out...
That alone is extremely infuriating to deal with.. That balance/design choice in the champions making 1-2 kills cost you the ENTIRE lane due to 1 little fuck up in 1 fight... Maybe its not entirely the champions, alot has to do with the retarded rune system.
But it only starts there....
I then decide I can't win top lane, and inform my team, I need to leave the lane, because the towers at lvl 7 can't do jack shit to help me. Trundle will just tower dive me and 2 shot me anyway...
So I proceed to try to help bot lane, and push down the towers while trundle pushes top towers.. At least we will break even at that point, especially if our jungler goes top, since I informed them I had to leave lane. Maybe he couldn't because he'd get tower dove too.... Of course he didn't even acknowledge anything though, then bot lane proceeds to complain about me going bot, and helping to push bot tower...
Here's the kicker.. in the time it took us to take the tier 1 bot tower, and push bot out of lane. trundle already smashed the tier 2 AND 3 tower top lane by himself..... In the short ass time it took me to go bot, and push down that tower, push out bot lane, and teleport back to base....
How in the loving god of fuck is that balanced? How is that not infuriating... I lose my lane, I try to help another, I'm 2/3 and trundle is 3/1.. and he proceeds to literally win the ENTIRE lane up to our inhibs in the 1 minute it took me to go bot... Absolutely disgusting... Is this really what league has turned into? No wonder people are leaving in droves...
So my only option was to sit bot, let him contstantly tower dive me, and feed and then get reported for inting? Because we all know how the community in leauge is.. You go 2/5 when its not really your fault and you're trying to camp the tower for protection, but they dont care.. you're 2/5... "oh dude you should of left lane" oh well this time I did.. and still got reported by my whole team for inting and giving up when all I tried to do was help bot push to even the lanes out. holy fucking christ...
Shit like this is extremely toxic, gameplay toxicity.. Bullshit, retarded, and absolute disgusting imbalance that gives you fucking ZERO options when you lose the lane.. YOu lose the lane, your ENTIRE TEAM loses their lanes... because they then have to abandon their lane to help yours especially if the enemy continues to push, or you need to abandon your lane entirely and hope to god they aren't a pusher champ like yi, trundle, nasus, etc. who can just chunk the absolute fuck out of your towers in 10 seconds...
This leads to people getting really pissed off, annoyed, upset, and puts a really shitty taste in your mouth... You then go into the net game, finally get a good lane, you're finally winning, and now another lane is getting the same treatment because they fucked up once....
THe players can't turn on riot and bitch at them, they don't care.. its obvious.. so the only thing the players can do is turn on each other....
WHen you have game mechanics like this it BREEDS toxicity.. because humans are humans.. they hvae emotions, feelings. We aren't robots.. we can't just keep getting dealt bullshit in the face and pretend like everything is ok...
TO make matters worse and to make me even more infuriated... the players have no clue wtf is going on either.. Despite me doing that.. my ENTIRE TEAM including 2 people on the enemy team reported me for inting and giving up.... What the actual fuck?!
Edit:
To continue a point I failed to mention... It's not the players faults on my team for getting upset, and reporting me... They're victims as much as I am... of this broken ass game.
The game has boiled down too "whoever fucks up first loses the game"... This again breeds toxicity... The only thing you can do at this point is just stop caring, only way to not get upset, and infuriated by the constant bullshit. But then you're disrespecting those on your team who do still care, because when you stop caring, you stop truly trying your hardest.
This then breeds more toxicity as it becomes evident to someone on your team who does truly still care and is trying to win.
Which results in this constant spiral of toxicity all created by the dumb ass decisions Riots made ove rthe past 3-4 years....
BUFF the fucking turrets... make lanes have options apart from "oh gee I lost 1 fight, high chance we now lose the game".. Should be able to DUEL your opponent multiple times, and it become a slow push out of the game, not 1-2 losses, gg, game over..
