So I played a game against Ahri top the other day

So the other day I was playing Ryze top against an Ahri, I walk into lane and Ahri starts spamming her joke and dance. Now, most people that do this are one of two things; Nice, or a dick. But I noticed while I was last-hitting that Ahri hadn't intentionally hit me once, only when hitting a line of minions I walked into to by mistake. Eventually I could tell Ahri didn't want to fight me and just have a peaceful lane instead, so I spam dance and whatnot as well while cs-ing.

After 3 minutes though, Diana comes and ganks me along with Ahri, betraying my trust, so when I came back into lane I explicitly pushed her under turret. She says "It doesn't have to be like this" She pushes back while I go ward and promises there will be no more ganks coming and while saying this goes under my turret to give me a kill so to say she is sorry. I trusted Ahri enough that I didn't even take it, which confused her for a moment until I explained it. We go on to have a nice, calm, farm filled lane where no one ganks, I even warn her to stay out of my E range when I hit the minions.

The teams are going at it mid lane, in fact it seems my team is having a bit of trouble, but me and Ahri are just steady farming and enjoying ourselves top lane, my team wins the next team fight so I don't even feel a little guilty. Our Maokai says "well at least top is having fun" Someone from the enemy team warns me Diana is coming to gank "I believe it was the Illaoi" and after a few minutes me and Ahri decide we should be leaving soon.

After the next cannon wave (It was mostly so I could finish two items instead of just one when I went back) we promise to group and fight each other like we were genuine enemies. Well farmed and having some damage I was able to turn a lot of our fights around, eventually getting a very high score, and as the game went on we were getting closer and closer to wreaking havoc on the team fights. (Unrelated, I saved the Maokai support with my ultimate by tping us away from Illaoi and Kindred, it was fun and I felt great. Supporting the support is fun)

As the game drew near however, the enemy team decided they were going to report me and Ahri for "assisting enemy team" because of how we played in top. Both Illaoi and Kindred are saying what we did was reportable, and their Zilean support said "online games have rules to follow" My team defended us, but I feel it could have easily been on the other foot if we had gotten the raw deal of a free farm lane. Illaoi was the one who warned me about Diana, but here at the end they've become incredibly salty and toxic because of the outcome, and I can understand that, but no one on either team said anything meaning if anyone ACTUALLY thought this was going to cause a poor experience, or genuinely thought it was breaking the rules they would have said something, but they only cared when it meant they were losing.

TL;DR Me and Ahri free farmed top and had a nice time, after awhile we grouped with our teams and promised to fight each other normally, enemy team doesn't mind free farm and even helps me avoid gank, but then turns on me and Ahri when they start losing and says they'll report for "assisting enemy team" And if this is what counts as a reportable offense then it seems the community's toxicity isn't all on it's own shoulders because moments like this in League make me remember why I love it so much, and getting punished for moments like these is just terrible. I hope no one can get reported for this.

If this is against terms of service, locking in nasus should permanently ban a player instantly

normals: who cares, have fun as long as you aren't trolling (which you weren't in this case, assuming what you say is true) ranked: definitely report-worthy

Idk why people can't have fun with this game. If it was just normals and people actually reported you I feel bad for them.

Before the assholes though it sounded fun. I love it when people just like to screw around. A few days ago my team was just getting absolutely destroyed, they had all inhibs and it was only a matter of time before we lost. But instead of winning or camping our spawn we had a nice 2 minute dance party, that was interrupted half way through when Taliyah said "leave room for jesus" and used her wall between the 2 teams.

That was a weird story. Cool but kinda weird.

I love chill lanes like this. I remember when Team Builder was still a thing and me and my lane opponent both picked Nasus top. The very start of the game we agree to just let each other farm and whoever gets the most stacks wins, (he won.) but man if that wasn't the most relaxing game I played. We just talked about our day and our favorite champions. Wish I added him.

This is my dream game, every once in awhile I think why can I not just farm for 5 minutes and relax. Plus reporting a hyper carry for wanting to farm sounds strange... This would be strange if a renekton made this kind of pact, but two mages where you want some items makes sense. Do not worry mate they just salty.

A nice reminder of games long past, and an unfortunate sign of where the game is going . . .
