Yesterday I learned that telling a guy that spent 95% of the game bitching out his team to stop being a bitch is infinitely more toxic than bitching out everyone else on your team for 46 minutes straight.

Also that the system is slightly a joke.

As much as the truth stings, many people have the idea in their head that:

A) They are lone wolves who don't value teamwork. B) If a problem occurs that falls on their shoulder, they try to scapegoat another player. C) They usually have poor map awareness. D) They usually have poor planning for positioning and tactics. E) If they don't get their way... they will feed, they will go afk, they will complain and/or they will verbally harass their own team.

A MOBA can be a very stressful genre of game yet its no excuse to not function as a team and to treat your teammates with respect.

Tips to fix an attitude:

  1. Teamwork is king.
  2. Map awareness is king.
  3. Plan ahead and be aware of allied and enemy positioning.
  4. Treat your teammates with respect and give them helpful advice.
  5. If a problem falls on your shoulders, take it like a man and learn from your mistakes.

I enjoyed reading this. This kind of shows how Ludacris players can be. Sometimes they'll do something wrong and refuse to admit it. They will lie to your face and stay in denial.

It happens. The only way to counter this is to wait for your team to engage instead and not put yourself out there to die like that.

I only ping in game. Never been reported, to my knowledge, in my 3 years of playing.

Watching NFL as a kid instilled one thing that is VERY helpful in this situation: The guy who throws the second punch is the one who gets ejected from the game 90% of the time.

This game is about taking objectives and killing people. WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU SPEND ANY TIME TYPING.
