The Reason People are Toxic in League
I am going to go ahead and say this right away, by no means am I a god-like league of legends players that deserves to be in an amazing elo but the matchmaking system is corrupt in more than 100 ways.
First of all you can make the argument that someone is inexperience but when they start to make illogical decisions to put themselves behind this should not be dependable because they are playing a mode that is called ranked which means that you have put in your practice to get to lvl 30 and played the long amount of games to get there and even practiced on top of that. Nextly, there are those who are afking in ranked games and making the whole entire team lose that is the most ridiculous thing, that person should lose at least triple the LP as a penalty for it to be even reasonable. Now when I play I am not really a rager, most of the time I am able to win my lane so if other lanes fall behind only a little bit it is okay. But heres what happens you have a jungler who does not gank once in any lane the only whole game, still ends up going 1/10 despite that, you have your adc who is doing good work and is winning lane hard however is support is playing out of his mind bad and the adc wont say a word to him until 20 minutes, I am the mid lane and I am winning so I am not getting too angry yet but than the adc starts getting mad at everyone because they are throwing on purpose and starts cussing, now the top support and jungle all gang up on him and say "HEY YOUR TOXIC, STOP TALKING LIKE THAT" do you know what I did, I defended the graves because his toxicity is justified because he is putting his heart into this game to win. Now to all of you people who say oh there having a bad game, just stop it, please just stop it, if you think that you do not know anything, they cant always have a bad game and heres the reason why I became toxic and why the graves was toxic, he tried to surrender so did I and try to get out of this hell hole because you can't carry when your too behind, these trolls click no and just keep dieng over and over again and were stuck in this unwinnable game wasting our time. Look I understand you want to have fun but this is ranked and the game is over you need to surrender when its over if your down 30 kills your not coming back face the facts and if you do you didn't deserve it so your going up ELO that you shouldn't be so in the future your just going to drop back down logically. The amount of hate that I am going to receive for this post is IMMENSE so let me justify the kind of person I am, I am the kind of person who will play leona support to get my adc ahead no matter what the costs, I am the kind of person who will play Annie Mid to win even though she is a r%%%%%ed overpowered champ that takes no skill, that shows how much I want to win and will try my hardest to help my team win, but I am in my promos finally after a long hard battle of games and am in my 5th and final game to get into gold and you know what, this wukong goes 0/6 in lane and says "oh im lagging" you could make the argument that its not INTENTIONAL but how do you really know that can you prove it? just like how you can prove that a toxic persons Toxicity was intentional, when someone is saying toxic stuff to another person like **** you or anything around that they don't really mean that to the person, the TRUTH is they really want to win, they want to win so much that there heart takes over there brain. Now to all those people who are like OH YOU BELONG IN THIS ELO or else you would get out and that bs I have like 3.5+ KDA's on all the champions I play SO I WIN Lane Consistently and yes I do believe that I am getting worst people on my team than they enemy team despite it being completely random. But the next time someone is being toxic in the chat heres what I want you to do, OBSERVE the guy who he is being toxic to and see what that person is doing and than maybe you will be able to grasp the reason behind it. The only way to actually stop toxicity in league is to stop the trolling, afking, feeding. League of Legends is all about Teamwork, so as a member of that Team you are obligated not to cause your team to lose for your own satisfaction, and even if it is not intended and you actually lose lane there are ways you can make up for it, when theres is a guy who is 0/2 or 0/3 or 0/4 or whatever you want that is actually still trying to win like hes saying "hey jungle I really need help" and is doing the right things than people are okay with it, but some people just keep going over and over again and they don't even care, this needs to be a ban-able offense, you should not be allowed to play ranked if you give up on the game, have you ever met someone who flames for no reason that is just illogical, there is always reasoning behind it, and the people who are arguing with the person being toxic is just making it worse.
Here is a list of things that I think need to be changed to improve ranked:
-
You need to lower the amount of time required to surrender, because nobody wants to be trapped inside a game where there are trolls and feeders and the game is over and you can't even say a bad thing about it.
-
You should be allowed to leave in the middle of a ranked game if your team won't surrender when your down 20+ kills and you did your best to win the game
-
People should be dropping more ELO based on performance that way the people who are toxic will not be toxic anymore because over time the people who are actually doing bad will be put into bronze where they belong.
-
If you get 20 or more deaths in a ranked game you should be subjected to a 5 game ranked ban, because there is no reason for you to have 20 deaths in a game even if it is extremely long, if you convert that to 5 people that 100 deaths which never happens unless that team is intentionally feeding.
-
There needs to be constant reminder that there is a MUTE OPTION, because if your someone who is genuinely not a troll and lost your lane extremely hard and someone is raging, you can mute them. So why does nobody every do it? The question is still unanswered.
-
Riot needs to create an alternative way to test peoples skills other than the 10 provisional games because everybody knows that some people get carried those 10 games and some people don't, and even up to this time I play with people who don't understand basic concepts such as warding, sieging, baiting, or even how to CS properly.
-
Reporting someone needs to have a more strict policy, If you are someone who is losing lane constantly and meeting the toxic people all the time than you are the won who should be punished for misusing the Report button, yes you are abusing it because you didn't look into your lane match up and who to win, or you did not pick a comfort pick, or you didn't even take a safe pick, you probably didn't follow any of those and costed your team the game so you should not have the right to report someone on top of that.
This is all I can think off the top of my head however there are others with good suggestions as well but to summarize, the reason league is toxic is because its a game of 5 and guy who wants to be a piece of crap can ruin the game for everyone and than you have to be stuck in that game for AT LEAST 20 minutes and there's no guarantee of you getting out after that because of trolls.
