When it comes to: Learning a champion/role or leveling accounts, people are straight up MEAN.
By my experience of currently leveling an account (currently level 15) people are just straight up mean. And yeah you can mute them, I do that. But constantly muting people every single game can be frustrating. You're taking blow after blow by people's words before you even mute them. You don't know who in your team is going to be toxic towards you until they say it in the game.
Some of you might say "Well mute all of them before the game starts" but even then, you'll deal with the spam of annoying pings from them. Pinging needs to be addressed because the sound of it, is tilting. Hell even SEEING it can be tilting. ["you can mute the sounds" it doesn't help where you can visually see it too ya know]
I've watched Riot Phreak and how people are toxic and aggressive towards him when he's made mistakes and such, he mutes them but I can SEE it in his face that it frustrates and tilts him when he puts up with it game after game.
See I can expect toxic behavior in rank because it's a serious game mode, but LEVELING ACCOUNTS? People are toxic towards players and new players who aren't even level 30??? Or even trying to LEARN the game???
It's sad, really sad.
I have had games where I was playing with new players and they did terrible, yea its obvious they would. They are trying to learn the game but I dont flame them or anything. I just accept the fact that they are in my team and i do my best to carry them. If I lose, I lose. It's not their fault. I move on to the next game without a word towards any of them.
