A Change of Attitude.
Dear League of Legends community,
Hi, I'm Matt. To give you all a little background about myself, I have been playing this game since mid season 2. In my time I can say I've seen all, if not most of everything there is to see. From people who afk to people who feed, I've seen it all. I know we aren't all perfect and I realize we all have our off games, so I'm here today carrying an important message to everyone; an apology of some sorts, but also a lesson. A lesson of how you could change your attitude and how you react to all of the "worst" things there are to see in this game.
First off, I'd like to apologize to everyone that's ever played a game with me. If I've ever done bad in a game and you've played with me, you'll know how terrible it can be. I may not be the worst person out there, probably far from it, but I'm bad enough to where I, admittedly, should have been chat banned/restricted several times now. When I, or anyone for that matter, does bad and "feeds" we go on tilt; we get mad, yell, scream, shout, insult, rage, all of the above, etc. There's been times where I've punched holes in walls, or almost broken my computer over how overwhelmed I get with emotions while going 2/8, 1/10, etc.
When people like me do bad, we look for every single excuse we can and place as much blame as we possibly can on other people so that we don't look like we're bad players, so that people don't say, "Dude, you're ass," or, "Wow, you really fucking suck," or any of the other famous remarks people like to give. As a person like this, I know how to deal with other people like this; I know how to talk to them and calm them down. This is why I'm writing this to all of you today, so all of you who take time to read this, lets stand up for all the feeders that just want to be understood that this champion is op and needs to be nerfed, that they just got camped, its not their fault, or that their botlane fed so terribly hard that they were 20/3 at 20 minutes and they roamed mid and killed him 5 times.
Lets all as a league community, **TAKE A PLEDGE** to change our attitude when our teammate feeds and lets all promise to give that midlane going 0/5 the moral support he needs to get back into the game. What do people want when they feed? They want understanding, sympathy. When someone goes negative in lane, the last thing they wanna hear is you insulting them or coaching them on what to do better. Instead of saying "dude, you're so bad, you died because you didn't ward," just tell them "hey bro, its cool. We'll get them next time. Lets put up some wards so it doesn't happen again." Show them that you aren't trying to be hostile or attack their skill. Use stupid little faces like "xD" or "<3"  heal his wounds, be his support. Don't  the rage within him, or you'll be ed of losing.
So let me be the first to 
in, 1 vs Everyone, and take the pledge to change. I pledge to be a better teammate, encourage my 0/5 top lane and 0/7 jungler to not give up, to keep fighting until the end because we always, have a chance to turn around the game and make it into a victory.
"As a team we will find victory, or die trying."
