Request to add an option to AUTOMATICALLY MUTE EVERYONE the second the game starts

I would absolutely love an option to mute every player in the game the second it starts without having to manually click 5 (or 10 if all chat was for some reason enabled) people to get rid of the stupidity, and honestly, with how terrible this community is, I really don't understand how it isn't already an option. I have no interest in talking to any of the players in this game AT ALL unless I'm queuing with my friends in which case I would use discord anyways. This community is the most disgusting thing I've ever seen in my entire life and I implore you to make this a feature of the game. With pings being available I have no need to see typing of any kind in my games and no interest whatsoever in it.

Muting everyone is actually way more toxic than you think. If your team is trying to convey something to you and you're sitting their spacing out chances are you'll ruin the game for your team.

Had a Master Yi recently in ranked who thought the same as you. "If I mute my team the chances of me tilting become 0." Yeah... far from the truth. The Yi just randomly roamed around as he pleased and was never where he was supposed to be and failed to move around the map correctly and was somehow always caught out 1 v 3. The reason why? It's not because he was bad. It's because he did the classic /muteall and lost all information of the game being relayed to him by his team. He was in his own little world and making the game unfavorable for his team because of his own inability to control his toxicity.

Unless you're the next Faker, can 1 v 9 solo carry, and win every game by 5 minutes don't mute your team because chances are you're going to put your team at a disadvantage.

Type /muteall - or make a macro for it. 1 click

idk if it should be automatic, but maybe a mute-all button for each team on the scoreboard. I don't mind all-chat but sometimes you just want to mute w/o having to turn it off all chat in the options menu.
