What i hate the most about League players [A must read]

League of legends has it's toxic players, it's good players, and any type of player you can think of. In my opinion, I can care less if a player is toxic in chat, but when it gets to the point of not playing the game, that's when I get upset.

So what I hate most about league players is there inability to adapt to other players.

Everyone has those games - no matter the division you are in - where a player starts to either afk, "afk" (still in game, but just sitting around), and feed just because they do not get what they want out of a game. When you play a ranked game, what matters most: meta or winning? If all you care about is meta, then continue staying in normal matches because I don't care how we win a game, I want to win. You can be Tyler1 for all I care, as long as you continue trying to win the game, that's all that matters to me.

An experience I recently had was when I went Cassiopeia support. My ADC Ashe was upset because I didn't pick a support champion, even though I planned on building support items anyway.

(N.B. - I enjoy playing cass support because of her DOT slow and lane pressure. She also excels at 2v2 fights, and can easily win lane with her ultimate.)

So she says "bye, gonna play hearthstone." At this point I was hoping she would come around later on in the game, but she literally sat under turret while I tried to carry the lane by myself. Of course I fed because of the enemy CC and of course I lost the game. What angered me was the fact that she didn't try, and continued to say it was my fault we lost.

Now I know what some of you are thinking "cass isn't a support you idiot, of course she would rage!" and then there are some who are thinking "If she at least tried maybe it wouldn't have been so bad." Now I'll repeat what I said: I prefer winning over meta picks, and I will do whatever possible to win."

Anyways, vote below for who fault for the lost match, and comment why. I am very interested in reading your opinions.

Good luck on the FoJ.

Honestly, I get really toxic because of 2 reasons 1: a player becomes incredibly egotistical saying lmao and stuff after a play with fizz or some other champion and ends up thinking hes the best, in bronze. 2: I end up holding far too much of my anger, and generally get too annoyed, and you may say, " just play some other game" well the problem is, I generally feel bad if I leave my friends because they usually need to play with someone else. But, yeah, Ashe was a jerk for leaving and blaming you for that, I mean, I would have been mad, but I have given crazier picks a chance

No I agree with you.. in normals at least... Some of the most fun games I have ever had in League was playing with friends and WAAAAAAAY off meta stuff. It was a blast. And eventhough we were out of meta, we still tried and played to win. No trolling or whatever.

We had a partial pre-made. 3 or 4 as I recall.. so there was ALWAYS a PUG element to the team. And happily, I think the PUG always went along. And I think we won all of the games except 1. (We got pub stomped in that one but I think it's that they were just better than us, not the picks.).

I specifically remember an Ezreal who was totally cool about going solo bot so we could have a duo JG and the opposing Vayne who was PISSED that she got no JG cs. Ever. ("Get OUT of my Jungle. I just want to fucking farm". Sooooooo money.)

Now... OTOH.. I would NOT do any of the stuff that we did in a ranked contest.

So , if I get a warning about one of my replies to someone on here does that mean I lose my end of season rewards? I mean I acknowledge I was salty but didn't think it was anything worse than what other people post on here.. Anyone know?

Didn't see anywhere to vote but I think the obvious answer is Ashe. I get what your saying, and i have seen all sorts of weird lane combinations while playing this game. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. However, Learned a long time ago not to question teammates picks generally. I would say I have at least won as many if not more games where my teammate has done an off meta pick like Cassiopeia support. Generally because 1. the player has hopefully tried it a few times and had success (especially if bringing this pick to ranked). 2. The person your laning against probably has never or hardly ever faced that off meta match up as well, so they are most likely uncomfortable.

The only time I get mad with picks is if my team picks all ad just because its so easy for the enemy team to defend. Or if your team is all squish vs a fairly tanky team. Not that you can't win, but your team is generally at a disadvantage.

I get it if you want to play this in normals or whatever. But if you take off meta shit into ranked, and your teammates dont want you to do it. Then the punishment for doing so is that the team morale has been affected by your poor lobby decisions. Sometimes your teammates are just more experienced then you and they know you are disadvantaging them. If you dont like the way your teammates react to you, change your behavior. Or just be mad that they think your a troll (and you probably are, you just dont know it).

now i become toxic player cuz i saw a ton of shiity player toxic, feeding, troll pick and fail game every day but riot did nothing on them. i never seen any good thing for them but taking money and doing worse. It used to be a nice game from beginning, after they took alot of money from us they didn't care how people plays now. Fuking sad, and they never reply any complain on here, no punish those trashers. nothing and no more.
