If you say this in ranked I think riot should perma ban you from solo/duo que. That is not what you say to people who que for ranked where the only way to win is to win your lane, and have the other 4 randoms not feed. Seriously if you're going to play ranked for "fun" or think that solo que is "fun" go play norms I'm getting sick of seeing this
Tsugaga6 votesLeague IS a game, it's 100% a game that is meant to be played for fun. I personally don't play ranked because normals is all I need for fun, I don't care about rank and don't want to have to be 100% try hard serious just because my team treats a ranking within a video game like it's the most important thing in the universe. While I don't agree with any form of trolling or intentionally causing a loss, there's absolutely nothing wrong with playing ranked for fun or practice. Relax and stop treating ranked League like it's more important than water. League is a game, have fun.
Stephenizgod5 votesDisagree. If they are not trying at all then report them, but thats a whole different thing. This IS a game and it IS meant to be fun, the fun of Ranked comes from fighting someone at their best with your best, the fun of Ranked is climbing the ladders and seeing how your skills compare to others, the fun of Ranked comes from seeing you improve. If the first thing you say before starting a Ranked game is "I hope they feed and are bad" then you are the one who misunderstands Ranked and i think you should go to Normals. If people could stop raging, being toxic, being assh*les for no reason and just remember exactly what Ranked is for then maybe we could all enjoy it a little bit more. It is because of people who take it too seriously and people who dont take it seriously enough that Ranked isnt fun. If i am not winning that does not mean im trying to lose, and if you are raging at me i will tell you to lighten up and calm down, its a game not the end of the world.
Now downvote me because i told you to lighten up.

Kikirino2 votesYou must be horrible at this game if you think the only way to win is to win your lane. Winning lane means next to nothing.
Edit: Bronze. Okay. No further information needed.

Fock Raet Gumis3 votesThat's what "report unskilled player" is for. They'll get their mmr lowered over time, and boom you don't have to play with them anymore.
In the meantime, suffer them. Join them. Get dragged down to elo hell with them and continue circulating with the same losers because it's a game, it's just for fun don't get so mad.
Seth Lightheart1 votesI love the comic.
Seth Lightheart1 votesI hate it when people say that. Just because it is a game doesn't mean I want to loose.
Truly Prideful2 votesSomeone saying they are playing for fun =/= they are trying to lose. I'll give 100% effort every game, but at the end of the day I'm trying to have fun. If I'm not having any fun, I'm probably not going to play as well because the game becomes a chore.
Seth Lightheart1 votesI'm trying to have fun too.
Truly Prideful2 votesThen what's the difference? By your logic you are trying to lose because you're trying to have fun too. It's possible for someone to play for fun AND try hard to win at the same time.
Seth Lightheart1 votesNo, I think you missed my point.
Here is my logic:
When a person tells you "It's just a game" they are usually losing and or playing something sub optimal.
You told me that having fun doesn't mean you are trying to loose.
Which I agree with! However! I am not having fun when someone plays something sub optimally, most likely fails, and tries to justify it by saying "It is just a game"
Hopefully I was able to convey my point.
Truly Prideful1 votesThat point makes more sense. I looked at it more from the stance of the original post where the impression is given that playing to have fun means you're not trying your best to win. If they're clearly play in a really sub optimal way that makes no sense, then yeah that's just a cop out.
Stephenizgod1 votesEven so its not always they are trying to play bad, when they are not doing so well and someone is yelling at them then they just going to play worse. Remember everybody loses or has bad days, raging or getting mad at them is not the way to go.
Its a game and like any other game you won't always win but you can always have fun, it is entirely dependent on you and your own attitude.
Nucleophilic atk1 votesSee, the thing is, people giving 100% do not usually make the comment "lolz silly nub jus a gam". That is OP's point I think. He is talking about the trolls that try new champs in ranked and say "lol itz a game noob" when they get bitched at for going 0/10/0.
Truly Prideful1 votesThis is more of a big issue with how ranked works. The game just needs to block someone from playing something in ranked until they've played it at least 10-15 games in normal queues or something to that effect.
Nucleophilic atk1 votesThat would solve that issue I think. I have also suggested that many times. That doesn't stop them from doing other stupid things, though. Example: "I want to build full AP Malph lol cuz itz fun noooooob".
Nucleophilic atk1 votesI second this.
Dingding1231 votesI play ranked because no one cares otherwise.
