The chain reaction starts with how you view the game. I have met someone who was in silver 1 and wanted to get to gold. They figured it would not take that long. They set the goal of "when i get gold ill go eat breakfast". They were at this at least 6 hours before i met them and that was at about 2 pm my time. Think they said they were in the same time zone..... Could have been an hour or two ahead...... Anyways, timezone aside, i asked "why not just go eat?" they said "because i wouldnt be able to actually enjoy my meal if i didnt finish my goal first".

When you set a game before life, there is a problem there. Im not saying you have to go outside and play etc, but im also saying you need to eat and sleep and drink and use the restroom. I do encourage going outside and doing something for a bit, but again, besides the point.

I get tired of people saying "its just a game" when they are feeding and purposefully trolling to try and tilt people (bards ulting allies who would have gotten away, tahm's eating people and bringing them into enemies, Kalista ulting and bringing an ally to their death to troll, you get the point.).

On the otherhand, just because someone does bad, does not mean they are trolling or feeding. They could be learning someone new. They could be new in general. When they say its "just a game" or "its just normals" is because someone has gotten so pissed off they are raging, saying racist comments, or making personal attacks at someone to try and make them quit the game. Not just the current match but league in general.

The domino effect works with toxicity as well.

So now my question for you is....... What are you trying to accomplish by posting this while having it under the caption of "its just a game mentality doesnt work"?
