Most Toxic Player Champions

I feel like the majority of toxic players play jungle, mid. and top.

Specifically, the most toxic champions I see are LeeSin 's, MasterYi 's, and Gragas 's.

Second to that it seems like it's mid laners who are playing as Leblanc .

Then, after that Darius 's and Garen 's.

It kinda seems like people who are playing "stronger" champion(who used to be/are top tier but needed/need a nerf just to get them off the insta ban list) are the ones who are more easily angered in this game. Like, they expected an easy game as long as they get a few early kills but as soon as other lanes don't do as well as them they flip the ship.

I feel like toxic top laners don't usually target one person as the reason the team is losing, but rather blame the team as a whole whereas it seems like junglers with usually target a single lane.

Just earlier I played an Irelia game in ranked where I begged and pleaded with my team not to make me go top because it was my worst role, not to mention a Jax locks in on the other team right after me. Beginning game the other team's Hecarim ganks me lvl 2 for first blood and then a few minutes after that Jax manages to kill me in lane. Since I was 0/2, I just hugged my turret and farmed from there but after Jax starts roaming the other team's fed Diana and now 4/1 Hecarim come dive me at my turret and kill me. Our mid laner got kinda mad that I died, so I just said "I might be a little more ahead if I got a good gank Gragas" and Gragas just says "Why can't you just play safe, idiot?" like I tried to die or something. I said "Well it's gg up here," to which Yasuo replies "You're gold, you should know the game is still winable." Then Gragas says "Probably just got elo boosted," then proceeds to call me "elo boosted trash" for the rest of the game. Long story short, we lost that game. In the end-game screen, I asked my team to report our Gragas for being toxic and he just says "lol whatever" then leaves. Doesn't apologize.

I've had many games where Master Yi's go in 1v4 and die then blame the rest of the team for not know how to play with a fed Yi.

As for Lee SIns.... it just seems like they will not be grouped and then a fight happens and he thinks he can 1v4 the remainder of the enemy team then gets surprised when he dies....

I'm just focusing on junglers for those three examples since those are the ones I have the most troubles.

I feel like for Le Blanc's it's always they get really cocky over all chat or if you say something about the team not working together they just go "stfu stop complaining".

Any thoughts? Which champions do you feel people are the most toxic with?

Idk from my personal experience I see a lot more ADC's as being extremely toxic than any solo lanes.

Someone actually analyzed a whole bunch of Tribunal data (back when Tribunal was up and running) to see if some champions were reported more often than others. I don't have the link handy, as it was on the old forums, but basically there seemed to be three trends:

  1. Players on assassin/duelist/splitpusher-type champs tended to get reported more.
  2. Players on "FOTM" champs tended to get reported more.
  3. Players on support champions got reported less.
  4. Players on "annoying" champs like Teemo or Shaco got reported somewhat more.

Intuitively I would think that:

  1. "Toxic" players would tend towards champions that don't require teamwork -- you can be effective on Yi or Lee or Zed or LB even if you mute everyone and do your own thing, but you can't on an ADC/support, or most tanks.
  2. Highly competitive players (who might tend to aggressively argue with their team, especially in Ranked) would tend towards "FOTM" champs.
  3. Support mains are probably more team-oriented and less hostile in general.

(Note: correlation is not causation, data might be incomplete, yadda yadda yadda.)
