A change in culture is needed

a I would like to create this thread hopefully for everyone to understand the frustration that can occur in rank. First question is why does Toxicity form? Rank mode is a game where there is a certain pressure you are given. A game in which an individual bring their "A" game to test their skills and be rewarded with LP to rise and fight opponents higher or better than you hopefully. Toxicity forms because people don't bring a certain amount of care and /or knowledge to the game. People are given certain expectation they are required before the game is started such as what role they perferred in order for other members to be "comfortable". Instead now they "perfer" a role to test a champion they haven't quite mastered, which can lead to a lane being lost and the team being miserable. Another problem I've seen is people not caring about others but themselves aka being seflish. I get that league is a "game", but its not only you but others that are stuck with you. When you decide not to communicate and build items your team needs will cause lots of issue. you will lose more team fight and will increase frustration (something your team dosen't need). Last problem I noticed which needs to stop is picking high risk high reward champion. One thing i noticed as an expereienced league player are people following people's persona or champion pick. I will elaborate... Many of the twitch streamers are picking difficult champion to show off their "skill" to gain viewers. I understand the need for money, but here is the main issue. People will follow these streamers tendency. An example is a Nauses just wanting to reach 1000 stack, people following trick2G playstyle that require an "udyr" to splitpush only without team regard and getting dragon in 5-7 minute, A nidalee which is a good champ but has no teamfight potential (no CC beside a w) and that need to remain high accurate on hitting their spears. People also follow champion LCS player and utterly pretend or believe they can be like them... which is absurd since they farm better have better mechanic than the average league player. Also they play a different meta. My point is please be proud to do one or two role that you can do at an exceptional level with 3 champion at most for each role. Practice in normal at least 50 games for experience with a your self or friends. Then display that skill in rank and make your team happy and RELAXED. Play to your team advantage instead of being selfish(warding is helpful). Dont get me wrong it SUCKS to lose lane, but there is a degree of accountability that needs to be adhered from why you lost the lane and what you can do better.

Like i said if you have questions, concern, or clarification that is needed let me know as I would gladly respond to them.

Again let me know if you have any questions you may have. its better to have them answered here than in a game in which you can potentially frustrate others
