I don't care if it's not ranked, I came here to win and cooperate with my team to achieve that. Take your loser and troll mentality elsewhere.
If you're playing shitty, refuse to cooperate with the team, take advice and refuse to act like you have some sense, please find a single player game to play.
Deep Terror Nami3 votesWhat's the context behind that though? Some people think that if you don't pick what is used in 90% of LCS games, then you're trolling. Some people think you need to be skilled at your champion before you somehow play it at all in PvP, as if vs. AI is all the practice you need and you go to Normals once you're as good as you'll ever be.
Context matters.
Kürama2 votesI'm talking about people who usually play poorly and when they're called out on it they respond with "It's not ranked".
Deep Terror Nami5 votesThat still doesn't mean they are trolling. Sounds like they just want you to stop being upset and abusive over it.
Kürama2 votesSo if someone joined a match with you, played stupid, you call them out on it and they respond with that, you'd be ok?
tonzillacrayon4 votesof course he would it happens every day for him at bronze 5
Kürama1 votesI wouldn't doubt it.
Deep Terror Nami4 votesThat's not what I said, now was it? Just because someone does bad or say's "It's just ranked" does not mean they are trolling. Get the stick out of your ass.
Kürama1 votesDid you not read my opening post? I said troll OR loser mentality. I don't care if it's not ranked. If you're not gonna put in the effort it takes to win then go play another game. Holy fuck.
Deep Terror Nami4 votesYour assumptions are the problem here. You think that that simple phrase means they aren't trying either. You should stop making assumptions, it only shows you're a jerk nobody would want to play with even when winning.
Kürama1 votes
Ok.
You're right, the phrase doesn't mean they're trolling, but the way they play does, and usually when I give them advice before the give me that BS, they completely ignore it. And I'm supposed to be ok with you playing shitty and not even taking advice from others?
Deep Terror Nami1 votesRineyy please, this is why I said at the very start;
Context matters.
Kürama1 votesUpdated the first post, is it better?
TeemoJenkins5 votesI'm talking about people who usually play poorly and when they're called out on it they respond with "It's not ranked".
So in other words - you flamed them and they responded "its not ranked" - personally I would've just muted you and moved on.
Kürama2 votesNo, I flamed after they said "It's not ranked". I ask them why they're playing recklessly and offer some tips, then I get that bullshit.
tonzillacrayon2 votesi hear it alot in games like cs go too put a ex pro player had a great mindset on it "if you are playing to just "have fun" or not trying or taking it serious because its not ranked then go play bots. Its the same exact thing except for you are ruining nobodys game and doing whatever you want. There is literally no reason for someone that doesnt want to "try" to play with other players, the competitiveness is whats fun if you dont think it is there is always bots that you dont have to take seriously :)
Kürama1 votesThis, thank you sir.
Lugg3 votesNormal is where people try out new champions and new strategies before they take them to ranked. If you want to seriously compete, that is where you play.
Kürama1 votesNo, you don't try out new champs in Normals, bot games are for that. I can understand strategies, but even so, come into the game and put your effort into it, don't be "meh it's not ranked idc".
Lugg2 votesBots is worthless. The only thing you can do there is practice some basic mechanics and practice farming. You have to face a real person to see what actually works.
Once again, you need to be playing ranked. Normal is the fun mode, ranked is the serious mode. If you can't understand something that simple, there is no hope for you.
Kürama1 votesYes, you try out new champs to get their basic mechanics down...
Why come in a Normal when you have absolutely no clue how to play that champ? People want to practice and get better in Norms, not be trolled or matched with a shitty team only to lose. Why can't I play Normals without the BS? Why can't you understand this simple shit I'm talking here? Holy fuck.
Lugg1 votesYes, you try out new champs to get their basic mechanics down...
Why can't you understand this simple shit I'm talking here? Holy fuck.
Well, that's EXACTLY what I was thinking of you when I did my last post.
Play ranked. You will be happier there.
Onegarion1 votesOnce you start to actually understand the game bots are a joke for simply getting an easy WotD. I learn absolutely nothing by playing bots since their patterns are so simple and manipulatable. You learn nothing in terms of mechanics because bots don't act like anything compared to people. They don't trade right, farm right, or build right. You learn nothing other than what Q, W, E, and R do.
The environment ruins any chance of actually learning. There is a HUGE reason that people who play strictly bots suck when they jump into PvP and especially ranked. There are some opponents who can't hit anything and others who have a homing beacon on your head. You only get to play against a small group of champs that don't act like they should.
Bots are good when you can't understand basics and not for when you actually want to learn a champ
RumblesMeatballs1 voteswhen i say its not ranked its because someone is being an ass about the game and they're taking it way too serious as if their LP was on the line. not to say i don't wanna win but if i lose its not a big deal cuz its not ranked i didn't lose anything off it.
if they're legit trolling then report them, if not and they're just trying to have fun then simmer down and have fun and stop worrying if you win or lose its just a norm
Kürama1 votesI don't want to put effort into winning for all that to go to waste just because some ass has to troll. And no, not having fun, trolling. We all know one report isn't gonna do anything, and the time they wasted in that game I'm not gonna get back.
RumblesMeatballs1 voteswell fair enough but nothing you can do unless you can get multiple people in that game to agree he was trolling and report him as well. just gotta move on lol the games over just hope you don't get another troll
ChrisV1 votesThe trolling happens more-so in ranked than in normal games in my experience. They find joy in making people upset with troll picks, ignoring the team, and helping the enemy. Then Riot determines we are more in the wrong for being mad at them - even though we just want to play, co-operate with the team, and work towards a victory.
Kürama1 votesWow...just wow.
