Champion mains

is it just me, or does anybody else stop reading a thread after they say something like: "riven mains do this" or, "all zed mains," "fizz mains." You're saying that people who main a champion act a certain way? no. thats stereotyping, and it's complete idiocy. just because you ran into someone who played a champ in that game: A.) does not mean they main that champ B.) does not mean all of them act like that C.) does not make you any better for posting a complaint thread about that champ or the people that main it.

The truth is, if you want to say riven mains are toxic (using this one as an example because it's the most common), you're better off stating the truth; a vast majority of LOL players are toxic. don't pretend it's limited to one or a few champs. it makes the rest of your argument, no matter how logical, look like a rant from a child. granted, there are a lot of children on here, and a lot of them aren't as close-minded as those threads are.

tldr; Categorizing people by their mains is idiocy, and makes your other points about that champ get ignored.

Usually when I see someone make an assumption either about a group of people or about what the reader will think of their thread I stop reading, downvote, and move on immediately.

Stereotypes about particular mains didn't come from nowhere. Just throwing that out there.

I can make the assumption that all Darius Mains post 5.16 are the trash of the community cause they have to use the most broken champions that are freelo to do anything useful. Cause that is my opinion, and every person is entitled to such. Deal with it, its the internet, people will complain.

Well stereotypes form for a reason. If people say Riven mains are toxic, it's probably true that most of them are.

I only make jokes, I don't really think Riven mains are assholes. Teemo/Fizz mains, however... kidding!

But too much generalization is too much.

Idk man 90% of Fizz players I've met in ranked say GGEZ if they win. So... That's just my personal statistic.

But I wont hold that stereotype to someone that picks fizz.

it is true that the majority of league players are toxic af. however i do find that the people that "main"a champion tend to be a bit more toxic. either that or i have just been in bronze for so long that that is all i hear. maby it just has to do with them having more knowledge of their champion than someone else has on theirs
