So i made a post last night that was similar. I get very tilted when I have bad experiances playing this game. Just had 2 games in a row that made me wanna rip my face off. The first game i let someone take top because they asked. He ends up going like 0/10, does nothing to try and help, BLAMES OTHER ALL IN CHAT and refuses to ff. Then next game i have a bot lane get destroyed and when our mid laner echo tried to help they flamed him because they died. Tbo the echo was doing great, it wasnt his fault. The echo ended up sayting F this and went afk. So let me get this straight. The echo gets banned for leaving even though hes a great competitive player, and the 2 trolls get to keep playing? Just continues to not make sense. I can never see myself climbing. I just cant do it

Three things:

  1. How do you know Ekko got banned? Most of the time the flamers get banned instead of the afk trolls.

  2. Riot hardly ever bans someone before lvl 30 because they will just make a new account right away.

  3. I completely agree with you that lvling up to 30 is completely miserable because you have smurfs of people who received permas or 14 dayers playing with brand new players. So the brand new players get flamed by Leagues most toxic players who are even more frustrated they have to start over. Im honestly surprised we keep getting new players to this game considering their first impressions of this game are those players. Its no wonder we are considered the most toxic gaming community when everyones first impression of us is our most toxic players flaming you while you are trying to learn the basics.

climbing to lvl 30 is easy it dont matter if you win or lose ... just play.. you gain experience and slowly level as you play. yes you do get more experience and level faster if you win more then you lose

I have seen people say that you can try and mitigate the awfulness by playing more ARAMs and COOP v AI's but based on what people say on the forums, I think those end up giving you less exp and also more exposure to bots. So although you don't get as many ragers, you get more bots and so there's a different kind of frustration.

Welcome to League of Legends.

My suggestion is, just play to improve, and not to win. I know lower levels are super tough because it's filled with permabanned toxic players on new accounts, but trust me, it gets might get better as you level up. If you really want to go fast, you can get double XP boosts. I got to level 30 in three months with double XP boosts, and this was before they halved the XP needed.

Sorry if I sounded like a jerk. If you want someone to queue up with, send me a friend request and we can play some norms. Even though I'm salty and pessimistic on these boards, I'm not in-game, and I'm always up for helping newer players.

If you can't see yourself grinding games to climb then league isn't for you. Plain and simple. If you climb it will be with near 50% win rate. You will get trolls, afks, inters and people who are beyond toxic. If you aren't willing to accept that and enjoy the game enough to play anyways then league may not be for you. If you enjoy the core gameplay but not the randos you get stuck with maybe try putting a team together so you know what you are getting every game.

I have to admit I barely remember my trip to 30 and I have only been playing a year. I do know that to this day I still hate Blind Pick Normals because champ select is a shitfest of whining, arguing about roles and people playing troll ass shit.

I was so glad to get to Draft Normals. Lol. But damn I don't remember all of the crazy toxicity you are describing. Because trust me, I may have quit with all that....

I cant make it to level 30 because either A. You play against bots with 1-2 bots afk inting to your jungle all game or B. You wait in 10+ minute queues just to get autofilled
