Solo/Duo Motivation!

Greetings Summoners!

Hi everyone, Razgriz here! Do you find yourself playing League alone mostly? Getting tired of the trolls, the unresponsive players, toxic here and there? Read the below guidelines to help yourself and to see to it that you do not fall victim to toxic behavior!

1. Knowing the Roles

    Knowing each role in the game will provide more skill sets to utilize per match, even if it takes you 10 matches per role to learn, do it! Win or Lose, Take the knowledge from that match . I have lost 10 games in a row because I was stuck in roles that I did not experiment with before hand, and I do mainly Solo. However, after awhile, I started to learn support, Mid, Top, ADC, and Jungle and gradually got better. You will find soloing easier if you learn these roles. You will be grateful for the time well spent, and your team-mates will be grateful as well, (Even if they do not verbally tell you)
   

2. Be That Player

    Being "that" Guy or Player, is referring to the ever encouraging and positive go lucky guy! Even if you are doing poorly in the match, find an alternative way to inspire your team by verbally assisting them, helping with pings, and warding! Remember, warding has changed, it is not only the supports job, but EVERYONE's job to take a little gold and ward an area! Not only would this help Morale but you may also meet a few summoners to play with in future games!!
   

3.Never Give up

   Losing match after match may be discouraging, Trust me, we all been there, I do not care WHO you are, what RANK you are, EVERYONE has been in that pit of despair, do NOT give up, continue playing! Enjoy the game for what it is, not for what others create it to be. This is a game, enjoy it! Try not to get so over competitive to where you MUST be the best of the best out on top. Everyone started from Level 1, No honor, No ranks. It takes time to achieve greatness, even if that greatness is not a rank you want, it could be the Champion skill set you desired! (you know those little comments, "Wow! You're a great Vi!" etc, etc)

4. Do not Troll.

    Trolling is for those who just give caution to the wind and do whatever they like, no body want's to do that with anyone. Sure it may be entertaining watching other's become so riled up about a "game", and as I said before, its only a game, but try to have some decency to others. If you were in a ranked match or normal game, and at that time you were trying to win, Would you like someone trolling you? I do not care what anyone has to say, at one point or another, you had that game to where you were on the edge of your seat , striving for victory, the last thing you want is someone to troll!

5. Be social

After all, this is a game, relax with it, be yourself, continue to do solo/Duo, I always encourage others to invite or friend request so that they could enjoy the game, can never have too many friends! and if someone has invited you on the friend list, then by all means, Go for it! No reason not too right?

That is all I have, Follow those 5 Simple guidelines and I'm sure you will have a great time in league even while Soling, and who knows, you may find other friends out there and you no longer have to be a lonely summoner, If you need someone to play with, I'm usually on when I can be, Feel free to add me! As always, Good luck and have fun!

Razgriz86, See you on the Fields of Justice!
