As someone who has played this game since Season 1 and climbed to D5 S7
I have always tried my hardest to win every game. I have always felt rewarded when I played my hardest, not always necessarily winning, and I have put in my best effort to get to Diamond last season.. BUT the toxicity in this game has gotten to a point where no word of a lie, I feel more rewarded running it down on a complete asshole and throwing a game than I do actually winning.
