I think the URF "tryhards" were victims of those who said "it's just normals"

Don't you think so? It's like in most normals, mentioning those three Satanic words makes them felt pushed to a corner, and had to find something else to be serious about(besides rank). I guess URF is a good place for it.

I often just see "tryhard" used as an insult because they dont want to admit they were caught off guard by anything.

Jinx practically melted to a single gold card from a TF in a previous game, and out from the Jinx's mouth....

I can't help but laugh constantly in URF. I can't take it seriously. It is just so funny. You melt instantly at times from the cooldowns. I teleported, and got stunned and died unable to do a darn thing, was hilarious. People just need to take it in stride.

The word meant something the first time I saw it, sometime in season 3. I understood very clearly what the person saying it meant, and the reason they said it.

Now, when someone gets first blood due to an early gank, we're lucky if the victim doesn't get on [All] to call everyone tryhard.

In another recent thread, I was told that building a certain champion to maximize damage to enemies is tryharding, whereas building that certain champion in order to take game objectives when no one is looking is not tryharding. (I'm not saying anything about one build being better than the other).

I used to mentally apply the word tryhard it to situations where someone was actually trying hard to do something very stupid; for instance, if a jungler and an ADC attempted the same gank setup over and over, failing miserably every time after the first... that would be worthy of the word tryhard.

I don't use this word anymore, since its new meaning is clearly "I'm losing fights and that's not fair."

So lets say my teammate decides to play ap fiora in urf mode and just die over and over. Then the leblanc that she fed comes down to my lane and starts killing me over and over and won't ever leave. Now I just want to surrender because I can't set foot outside of my base without getting one shot by a leblanc who's bouncing around the map at the speed of light. I guess it makes me a tryhard if I'm salty that our fiora wasted everybody's time? Sorry, but people need to realize that "for fun game mode" != "troll all you want and then call the people who are actually playing 'tryhards' "

I understand where you are coming from. It is supremely annoying. I just try to let it go and keep going. It does make it miserable though.

I sure wish I could play a game that didn't amount to that. As is, this is probably the last day I'm playing URF until the next time it comes out - by which time I will probably have forgotten why I hate this godforsaken mode, and I'll be excited about it again.
