ELO = EGO

Title.

People seem to think if you're bronze or silver you're just shit and don't know anything. Got into a game with a darius the other day in a blind normal game who just autolocked instantly, and all he had to say was "plat," like ok thats not an excuse to be a dick. Not everyone plays league to climb the ranked ladder, some people play for a long forgotten thing called fun. And it's a shame when people condescend others because they haven't achieved high elo.

I know people are gonna say im salty because im bronze 5 but i only played ranked up until my first promos, i have 13 wins 16 losses which isnt a terrible win loss ratio and that was at the beginning of the season and i did it to try and help a new friend that just reached level 30 at the time. We realized ranked was way less fun than normals and just stopped playing ranked, but ive been playing (off an on) since season 2. Not everyone with low elo sucks ass, and if they do how about offer them guidance rather than flaunt your superiority and make them hate the game and community?

Nerd gets picked on in real life. Nerd goes online and "gits gud". Nerd picks on other nerds to take out his frustration for being picked on in real life. The End.....

Or is it?

Nerd gets picked on..on the internet. Nerd goes somewhere else on the internet to post it on the forums. Nerd picks on someone else on forums for being picked on in a game.

Nerd gets picked on in forums....

See where im going?

Almost. After Diamond it seems people get pretty loose. But from Bronze to Plat its pretty much if you're one division lower(even just like Bronze VI>Bronze V) then you suck more than them and they're above you.

How a league game goes with a wannabe pro player.

Champion pick lobby.

"DON'T FUCKING BAN DARIUS OR I WILL RAPE YOU" "BAN KATARINA" "BAN FIORA" "WTF BAN YASUO"

Start of the match.

Darius: why aren't you mid n00b? Rengar: isnt rengar jungle? Darius no hes fucking mid L2p noob Thresh: why am i with this ass? Kog'maw: hey! Thresh: no not you. fucking darius Kog'maw: oh. yeah why is he acting like this? Darius: cuz im diamond and u guys arent anything Heimerdinger: suuuure...

Middle of the match...

Darius: guys get dragon Red team has slain the dragon! Darius: great becuase of you n00bs we lost dragon Rengar: dude chill Darius: just fuck your mom

End of the match.

Darius: wtf contest baron Heimerdinger: there's no way we can. theyre fed as hell Darius: yes we fucking can Red team has slain Baron Nashor! Darius: fucking noobs Thresh: dude you were feeding them Kog'maw: yeah the entire match you were Rengar: everytime i would try to gank top you wouldnt do shit to help me Darius: stfu Surrender vote for blue team 4 for and 1 against.

End game lobby.

"darius you are level 15..." "no im level 30 and diamond" "everyone report darius" (Heimerdinger) "agreed" (Thresh) "can do" (Rengar) "without even flinching" (Kog'maw)

And thus the asshole was banned. No one was even eligible to que for ranked in the first place.

Thing is, it's blind pick and so people can instalock and go wherever they want. That being said, not communicating with your team just makes things difficult as now everyone has to decide on what to play around the player who instalocked.

As far as him just saying "plat" there's really no point other than to stroke his own ego. But if that's all the person did, then just get over it. No need to make a post about it just because someone said their rank as they locked in. Better to just enjoy the match and not let that person's one word get to you.

Welcome to Yoloque, for your first placement match, have an enemy with a jungler that intentionally feeds your carry. For your second match, be flamed for playing your main by a support that goes afk after giving up first blood
