Is it me, or is one for all full of tryhards?

Let me get this out real quick, I'm not saying that "omg these peeple such tryhurds playing taric in 1 for all. i deserve challenjour gg" It seems that %40 of the people I play with think this is ranked or something, and that if they don't win, then Ronald McDonald is going to come to their house and steal all their toasters or some shit, I don't really know what goes through their heads. They always try to get the best possible champions, and they trash talk A LOT. For example, I just got out of a game of Gangplank vs. Darius. This one guy would not shut up about how "this was a bad pick" and that "gp is trash". I'm sorry, but WHAT? Gangplank is very arguably the best designed champion in the game. He heavily rewards skill and also has decent amount of counterplay. I treid telling him that, and he just said "shhhhhh ur only bronze". That was arguably his most well thought out insult. Over the course of the entire game, he found it necessary to say "LOL BRONZE KID SO BAD" every time I got pulled into a group of 5 Dariuses, and later, when I asked him why he thinks I'm a bad player/Gangplank is a bad champion. His well thought out, articulate response? Verbatim: "u suck"

Why is 1 for all full of kids who think that this is a half serious game mode? Seriously, just play bard, ignore the other team, and just run around collecting chimes saying you're a Pokemon trainer

Sorry, a surprising amount of people think Gangplank is a bad champion. It's difficult to differentiate sarcastic people and morons

there is always one person who afk's as soon as you start to lose or refuse to surrender as well. and why do people all insist on playing the same kind of champ? (juggernauts and Yi)

Its not shocking that people want to win in a competitive mode, even a more casual one.

The reason it seems so bad is that you have everyone thrown together even though they are normally vastly different skill levels.

"tryhard" is probably the most interesting insult I have ever heard. Only in gaming is that considered a bad thing by anyone.

My question is mostly that of "Why do people try so hard to win" in a gamemode where you all go Tahm Kench and pretend to be Russian nesting dolls

And they are asking "why are you trolling in a the corner trying to pretend to be russian nesting dolls when the objective of the game is to win."

Honestly the issue is that any mode that is solo queue is really not the place for goofing off.

What you described just sounds like trolling. While the featured game modes are more relaxed than others, it is still a game with an objective. If you aren't trying to win, you are going to piss off a lot of people. That's not to say you have to play w/e 5 best champions every game. If you think it would be fun to try to win as tahm then fine, but what you described isn't that.

It's 5 of the exact same champion. If this were allowed in competitive play, nobody would do it. Maybe you might see 2 of the same person on each team, but realistically, there's no advantage to having everyone on the team be the same person. And if it just makes you worse off to have multiple of the same champion on your team, then why try to do it competitively?

Because thats what the mode is?

If all you want to do is goof off in the corner why don't you just play a custom game with your friends?

Stuff like your tahm kench thing just don't fit in any way with a game where you are matched randomly with other people who are trapped with you for the duration of the game.

When I say competitive I don't mean like LCS. I just mean that this is a PVP game, every mode is competitive. Some are more relaxed than others(like one for all) but its still a game with an objective. An objective that you are ignoring.

I completely agree with your original point about a guy raging that a champion is bad(true or not) just because they lost.
