Dear Bronze Players...

  1. When a team kill difference is about 5 or less, like 10 vs 15, it is still possible to catch up, so stop spamming surrender votes. Especially if we're winning by 50 vs 5, and we lost one simple teamfight, it's not the end of the world.

  2. If I see you autolock a role & still doing bad at it, report is coming in your way.

  3. When you're recalling to base from your lane, please, for the love of god, stop recalling right at your lane opponent's face, such as recalling between the turret's face & your lane opponent who has pushed half of the lane. Do it a lil behind your turret side, or unless if enemy is turret hugging his own turret, then it's ok to recall round your turret comfortably.

  4. If you're going to argue with people about certain stuffs, argue smartly, not loud & dumb. For example, in a situation where you insistingly wanted to go top lane Jax and you had to argue why you really need it, go like this:

"May I have top please? I mained Jax for a while now, and I will promise I will carry the team ;)" Even if your team says no, be a man, and proudly change your lane.

And not:

" autolocked lol imma go Jax top, fk you guys! I got 20/4 last game, so stop whining and let me go top lane!" Ermm, let me be clear about this. WE DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR LAST GAME. We wanted to know your past experience with certain champs, not a lucky bingo from your last game, which in reality, you fought against a Soraka.

  1. When all I did is throw a skillshot move just to poke in a 2v5, it is not a direct order to **initiate a teamfight right away. **

  2. Please upgrade your yellow trinket/buy a Ward, and stop spamming all-chat with stuffs like "report my team no mia". You must always lookout for yourself, stop being so highly dependable on your teammates to be your eyes.

  3. If you kept on dying a 1v1 and put all the blame on me(jungler), best to forget about ganking your lane. I'll just gank a lane who isn't r%%%%%ed & has higher KDA than you. It's for the better of the team.

  4. If you're playing Yi or Riven, and you're kind of underfed, please, stop showing off by going 1v2 or 1v3. You're becoming a bigger liability the more you improve this type of behaviour.

  5. If you're playing support, buy a Sightstone. Stop being selfish. It's the one reason you're still in this elo.

  6. Communicate. It's one of the most important asset to win a match.

I'm Silver 3, and I'm already working on improving my behaviour from all these types of craps I see everyday in my low elo life.

This article has way to many fallacies to be taken serious.

  1. Titling this article "Dear Bronze Players" is not only condemning 'bronze players', but you also just ignore the fact it is not just bronze players that are making/doing the actions you have listed out.

  2. Insta-locking also means you are talking about 'Blind Pick' and if so this does not revolve around your rank (to an extent yes, but it's not a ranked game).

  3. As other people have stated insta-locking is not against the rules and I would rather have someone play a champion they enjoy versus playing a typical 'Support' or other champion that they know very little about.

  4. Reporting a person because they picked a lane and did bad is not only discouraging, it does not help that player improve. Why not instead of saying you are going to report after the game ends, give some helpful advice. Or possibly that player could have been having a bad game (you know maybe you had one of those as well). Also you do not WIN every game.

  5. Last thing there is not much of a difference between a S3 player and a Bronze player. Hell I would put money on it you could still learn a thing or two from a 'Bronze' player.

Just please be considerate of other people and remember it is a game. Obviously winning is fun and should be your goal, but enjoying the game and having fun in general makes for a much better experience.

Technically it's not against the rules to autolock, so you can't really report it unless they start raging and break other rules.

  1. first part - Good, RIGHT second part - depends, if you got aced. yeah...you just lost
  2. Autolocking isn't against the rules, and nor is doing badly you are abusing the report system by reporting them.
  3. Why NOT recall there, it's not like anything bad happens. usually theyll come over and hit you once to stop you ( So its actually good bait )
  4. Saying Please is not smart, it shows humility, and we know. People in League are anything but humble.
  5. (You restarted your bulletin for some reason...) Right, i'll give you props there.
  6. You actually shouldn't buy upgraded yellow, you SHOULD have a red/blue and be buying many wards 20 wards = map hax
  7. An example that angers me a lot, "Never ganking the enemy nasus", NASUS someone who has a bad early game, no escape, but also, cannot be escaped by the other laner, -Laning is literally a constant 1v1 if you never gank HEY WHY NOT MAKE IT A 2v1!
  8. Underfed isn't a word completely redundant statement, asking people to not carry too hard.
  9. Supports dont have to buy sightstone, I in fact am so sick of people saying, and i quote, "It's the support's job to ward". I say nah fuck you ill buy 4 Wards untill you start buying em, that protects me untill the end of laning phase. "Already silver" --_-- that's still trash elo. MOST people are silver

So you'll report players who autolock? who wait for the timer to run out and for the game to automatically lock them in. So in other words you're impatient.

I mean, I don't report people who autolock, but it never bodes well. This guy took the first second of his interaction with four new teammates, and used it to say "fuck you guys, I'm playing MY way"

The other four automatically resent him, because he's already demonstrated an unwillingness to cooperate and communicate with the team.

Alright, game starts. Now, I don't know about you guys, but I expect fucking great things from this guy. He is literally so confident in his ability with this champion and lane that the rest of the team's concerns are literally a non-issue. He damn well back it up. He better win lane, minimum, and if he actually gives first blood... if I touch my enter key I know I'll have a chat restriction the next day.

Oh and God forbid he's shit talking us on top of that. Which they usually do.

So yeah, I don't report people just for auto locking... but they rarely JUST auto lock.
