When teams start losing, it just takes one person to press tab. "Nasus is AP GG." Then the toxicity ball starts rolling and comments fly. I can't even expect to play through a game anymore unless we are winning the entire time.
I'm at a crossroads. I have played this for 4 years, every 2 years I get perma banned because I play unpopular champs and I make the mistake of trying to communicate with angry kids which is glossed over without thought or context and deemed "toxic" on my part.
I get banned first for maining Lulu mid and top. I even have a post of the old community manager talking down to me for playing it. Shortly after it became popular and even nerfed. I knew it was strong, I played through the bullshit anyway.
Same thing with AP Nasus. It's strong in several roles but the community is largely ignorant of anything but what's in rotation and played often. This type of thing is what I enjoy, learning games and playing them to the limit, not looking up builds or copying streams, I play hundreds if not thousands of games on the same character choosing builds that work.
I can't get my fix anymore. Most of my games I just walk away pissed I wasted my time on this kids game. The worst aspects of this community are just getting stronger.
