Usually I'd agree, but when they say things like "Vayne Jung is op because you can't shut her down!"

I tend to think "Hey, I've never met anyone in Gold+ say something that stupid.

High elo players tend to be way too rude, but low elo players tend to say stupid crap anyway.

When you haven't finished your promos and your ranked team places you in Bronze V http://media.giphy.com/media/wvQIqJyNBOCjK/giphy.gif

true story

Not really sure that "haters gonna hate" is the meme that fits this case specifically, but go ahead.

If anything, it's because Bronze-Silvers are very vocal about how X thing is broken and should be gutted/deleted and rito is stupid for not doing so, and that people can be rarely talked about it without the talk becoming an insult fest.

uhhh not so much that people are haters, it's that bronze opinions don't actually matter. I had friends that were bronze, but the second you try to explain to them their mistakes after a game and they just shut down and act like they know more than you or some shit. They also never listen to my advice so fuck em, they don't want to get better then that's their own fucking problem.

I'm not saying that Bronze opinions don't matter, but if the only argument for a champions imbalance is "I always wreck as X and X always wrecks me" then being bronze does invalidate your opinion. If you look at the kit though and how it functions in game, then you may have a point.

Yeah I am here in Bronze talking and others tell me to shut up because they are Silver or diamond and instant know more than I do because they keep pointing out about their ranking positions. I know that not everyone is an ass at higher Elo but there are a lot of it out there. People with higher Elo have an ego so far up their ass they honestly think they are perfect.

It's stupid. It's like they don't need to use logic anymore.

Bronze opinions matter...except for the balance complaints. Sorry folks but when Bronze complains something stupid like "Vayne jungle is OP" or "Laners should all get Sated Devourer because it's OP" then I'm just like...no

I'm only Gold so I'm willing to listen to better, higher ranked players. Rank determines how good of a player you are, if you're high up then you understand the game well and are probably able to do things your lower ranked players won't be able. For the most part I don't consider anyone's opinion if they are bronze, because that elo is God awful. I tried smurfing in ranked for fun and I now understand why people complain about their team, they really do suck. But so does the enemy team.

Someone in diamond would have a much easier time playing in my elo and I respect that and if debating between several diamond players I'd concede my opinion if several higher ranked players all agreed against my opinion.

So yeah, to anyone who is in bronze; to me your opinion doesn't matter. Work on th mechanics and game knowledge and then you'll see. It's not hard.

Well when most of them try to act like their opinions are fact based on what they see in their bronze games then yea, their opinions mean shit.

From what I understand, high elo players are playing a completely different game than low elo players. And therefore most of the stupid things low elo players complain about aren't even noticed by high elo players because they have more experience and a better understanding of how to deal with it. Its almost like Riot has to rebalance 2 different games. xD I'm low elo here so I'm not just bashing low elo players, high elo players are rude often... but I wouldn't say any more than low elo players.
