The blame game

Failog·Sep 27, 2016·2 votes·427 views

100 percent of the time, if you are doing very well in a game and start criticizing the other players, they will 100 percent of the time turn around and say things like "kda doesn't matter" "you are toxic" "

Despite the fact that you have a Jungler on your team with 23 deaths, and a Shaco for support with 17 deaths....somehow YOU are the problem and the one who cost them the match...ya know, for daring to suggest that the ADC needs to stop wandering around alone, or that they need to stop focusing the tanky bait every team fight.

In my entire life, I have never come across a group of more unreasonable people then when playing this game. Nothing even compares to to the level of stupidity and ignorance that league players display to me on a daily basis.

AND, here is the problem! If your doing well why criticize?

Are you the one doing the criticizing ?

Because I have thousands of ranked matches and even if I am doing well I know when a game is going south due to the actions of other players.

Please refrain from posting such stupid responses in the future. Thanks.

Because depending on how you criticize will determine their reaction. There's criticism, which is negative, and constructive criticism, which is positive. Also keep in mind, you don't have to criticize, but if you want to give some kind of feedback, please be careful on how you word it.

For example; If Vayne is wandering alone and there is no vision on the enemy, how would you approach the player and tell her not to wander alone?

A: "Vayne, try to stick with the team so we can protect you.

B: "Omg vayne why are you wandering alone?"

Which do you think will go over better? Certainly not B considering you're being rude towards them, and causing them to get defensive.

If I had to guess, I would assume you use more of the B-style criticism, and that's why "100 percent" of the players turn on you and call you toxic.

Just remember the saying: If everywhere you go it smells like shit, maybe it's time to check your own shoes

Neither go over better and you know it. EVEN if A was better than B...for gods sakes I have to type all of that while playing? OR how about players just learn to stop getting so butt hurt so easily?

AND as typical, you turn this around on me and basically suggest I am the problem. Typical brainwashed league player.

You... just proved my point right there. I guessed how you probably acted in the game, hoping you would at least try to prove me wrong, instead you turn around and attack me. You realize that's why people don't listen to you, correct?

I tried to give you examples of a more calm approach to giving suggestions to players. But as I stated, you don't have to give advice or criticism in the game either. If you choose to, then you need to carefully word how you give suggestions. Calling someone a "brainwashed league player" isn't going to get anyone on your side or to agree with you. Yes, as annoying as it is to type out slightly longer and more polite messages is, it's necessary if you want others to listen to you, or take your advice.

Also, I have used option A before in a game. And yes, it does go over better. Because people respond to better to polite players than those who flame. Just saying.

I agree with Desolas.. Negative players will create a Negative environment for his or her own teammates. For example.. if you are playing a Champ you know well.. and you are doing VERY Good in the match, get your towers down .. etc.. Your next mission is to assist your TEAM. Help them take down those other champs, help them take down those towers. You don't even have to really say a thing to help someone improve. Sometimes playing with Experienced players honestly helps people learn and catch on faster. No one is going to play to your exact expectations.

I would rather take the time to type out a polite message to a teammate. Because chances are they are Learning just like you. Share your knowledge. If the person is persistent then don't say anything at all. Sometimes it is better to remain silent then have a snake on your tongue.

Yeah and how do you assist your team when they insist on dying before you can even join a fight? HMMMMM?

Another brainwashed drone

No I didn't prove your point. I'm not in a match right now. Nothing in real time is at stake. You decided to make the leap that just because I'm going to talk harshly to you must mean its my fault in the games.

If your first post you said "Which do you think will go over better? Certainly not B considering you're being rude towards them, and causing them to get defensive. "

You already started attacking me, and when I bite back you now say "I guessed how you probably acted in the game, hoping you would at least try to prove me wrong, instead you turn around and attack me. You realize that's why people don't listen to you, correct? "

Do you even realize how utterly retarded your thinking is?

Did you just get banned or something? What kind of vindication are you seeking?

"Nothing even compares to to the level of stupidity and ignorance that league players display to me on a daily basis."

^ Yep, you couldn't possibly be the antagonist here. Maybe if everyone tries to turn this around on you as "brainwashed league players", just maybe, that might mean something. You know what they say about the guy that keeps calling everyone else in the world crazy...

FailogSep 29, 20161 votes

Yes, I couldn't possibly because I am not. I say nothing, then I say things that shouldnt be taken offensive like, play more defensive, please stop getting caught out...and then they take that and keep playing bad while bad mouthing me for daring to say anything while being the best player on their team.

But thank you for the worthless post. Another drone, who doesn't see the problem of league players as it is. Delusion must be nice.
