Okay, I must be toxic because I hate the following argument/statement

Don't take Normals or Team Builder so seriously, it isn't ranked.

The reason I hate this, is because I argue that I take it seriously, because I would enjoy winning, I can't do Ranked because I get the same people, only it actually effects a Rank in Ranked, I take it seriously in normals because its just 0 fun when you lose because then you have to deal with people saying "so and so OP" Anyone is OP when they get fed or you have a 0/12 free week Volibear, or a 1/4 Quinn who leaves in the middle of the game cause our Team Builder Captain said "Duo ADC OP" and Locked us into match making before I realized who she had chosen since I was picking my spells and shit.

I hate that fuckin argument because its just so stupid to even say, especially when the person saying it to you, gets mad over the same reason when they lose. The problem with the argument is, you can't not take it seriously because you saying not to take it seriously, is the exact reason why people hate Ranked, you don't try, you don't make a commitment, you end up feeding and whats that? Another lost promo series, we need categories, softcore people who just don't give a damn if they win or lose, and we need the hardcore category for people who at least make an effort to win and cooperate with teammates, not leave or intentionally feed.

Thanks for reading, and Im guessing im going to get the "mad cause bad" type of people in here.

personally i think if someone afks, or 2 people afk and its an obvious loss you should try to enjoy it more, just fuck around more in your games.. win or lose... i've /ff'd games that i've been 15/0 in because its fun, the games i don't like is the ones where people abuse you for either doing better then them, or doing poorly... you can't win every game, you can't even out play every person you lane against... its just impossible sometimes... i went Zed into Fiddle, and due to my lack of knowledge about how to play against a middlesticks, i couldn't out play him, i couldn't beat him in any duels i couldn't do anything.. i've lost lane to some of the dumbest match ups ever, simply because i don't know how to play against them.. does it say i'm bad? probably.. does it say i deserve to be abused by my team? no... i don't believe so, i don't think my team would do any better in that situation either... just relax, try to enjoy the game more.. enjoy it for what it is... a game.. you don't get mad at Call of Duty when you lose do you?.. you don't abuse your team when you lose in COD do you? if the answer is yes, then you're not playing games for what they are, you're being to competitive.. i find when i relax and enjoy myself, i play a lot better and win a lot more games... especially when i play retarded supports...

I agree.

As not yet level 30, I take normals seriously. I want them to prepare me for ranked when I hit 30. I have fun when I make good plays or at least when things are competitive.

Some people may have fun trolling, or doing silly stuff when behind. I don't. I have fun when I can do something meaningful in the game. So when I play hecarim jungle and start 7-1-2 and the total kills are 9-16 (literally I had 1 of 16 deaths and was part of all 9 kills, 6 of 7 being solo kills) sure I found the game so far fun (because dang was I owning) but from that point onwards being a level 15 jungler with teammates at 12/10/9/9 and enemies were 15/13/12/12/11 and literally having no help while they just take objectives at will is frankly frustrating (especially when it was part of a streak where I lost 9/10 over 2 weeks and in 8 of those got somewhat fed early and couldn't do anything late because of people that feed/leave/etc...). I mean I can handle losses, I don't rage regardless and I just take a break from the game (hence 2 weeks to play 10 Games there) but I mean please just accept the surrender and don't make me waste an extra 20 minutes because you want to keep trolling... If the only person on your team who is doing anything useful wants to give up it probably means you should give up...

Oh ya, and in that jungle game I had the most cs on my team too :/

I'd love a "hardcore" normals queue, except I think the trolls would use it because trolling is only trolling when your teammates aren't trolling too...
