Edit: pledge at bottom

I started to play league of legends just before ekko was released, so I haven't been playing for very long. However, i am probably one of the most toxic players that i know. I go to the store and buy unsalted chaps, because when i reach my hand in to eat after playing a game, i cant taste the difference. But in all seriousness, i have not only made my chances of winning suffer (A good / happy personality can have up to a 10% higher win rate than average, while a toxic player can have up to a 35% lower win rate than average) but i have made the community worse, and for that i am sorry. I was recently in a game that literally made me want to die how toxic my team was, as i was going through a rough patch in real life and everything the said really hit the nail on the head for me, they lied in all chat, they flamed me, and they fed my lane. Here is an example of the text (i was karthus and i was duoQing with blitzcrank, but he doesnt get involved in /all chat) Karthus hey, please stay out of my lane Nidalee * runs down lane twice, smites cannon both times, misses spear then dives full hp ahri under tower* Karthus /all please report nidalee, she is feeding my lane Nidalee /all He is calling me bad, putting me on tilt AF Karthus Nidalee STOP Nidalee Shutup homo %%% peice of shit.

Now most players would have just muted nidalee at this point, but because i was really salty / butthurt / had a bad day i didn't It was at this point nidalee's duoQ stepped in ( i think nid might've been trioQing but i am not sure, however all 3 besides my duoQ were trolling)

Lissandra /all Karthus just called nidalee a homo %%% piece of shit. (

Been taking this pledge since the release of Khazix. If you want some advice, just slow down and think for a second- sure, people can be idiots, but you need them to win this. I find myself congratulating someone who's behind whenever they do something right.

Pull a few ganks if they're falling behind. In my situation, there's no better motivator than a fed Sion speeding down the lane of the people who are behind to get them some kills.

Thank you so much for posting this. I had a rough game like that last night and I was going to uninstall League today because after all League is supposed to be fun and you can't have fun when you're so mad you're shaking. But seeing this post really helped. Once again thank you sincerely for this post.
