PSA: Having a premade in your game is NOT an excuse to be toxic. (from a fellow solo-queue player)

Apostle of Light··13 votes·908 views

I fully understand the want for a solo queue. I want it too. But I often see solo players justify/excuse their toxicity simply because there's a premade on their team. Not because the premade did anything bad, but simply because they exist.

The mere existence of a premade is not an excuse to be toxic.

Premades are ruining the gaming experience for solo Q players.

They act snobby on the boards, knowing that rito will defend the dynamicGarbage no matter what.

They gang up on soloQ players in premade toxicity, which is one of the worst experiences one can have in League.


None of that justifies toxicity towards premades, quite right. But just because something isn't justified, desn't mean one can't understand why people are agitated. If premades want to be treated fairly, they have to start with themselves.

i heard before dyno q they had a duo and a 5v5.... there is only one reason i can think of for not having a full team of 5 and staying at 4 for ranked.... its to troll there is no other reason even if the partied groups refuse to admit it.

Premades are more often target of abuse than actual abusers. Especially after clubs were introduced so everyone can see they are premade.

Well from personal experience of grinding through levels, I can't recall 1 time where a pre-made team wasn't trolling. Bot teemo, Top teemo, Jungle teemo, you name it. I have NEVER met a friendly group of players. I am not saying that I just go full toxic mode when I see people who know each other, but I am insisting that YES I have met these summoners playing with each other in the past and they have not tried to help me when I ask them to do something and throw the game each time I meet them. Whether it be a tristana ADC trying to act like a noob or a jungler who is out of position, I get mad when I see them cause I can tell that they are trolling from the moment I see how they speak to me in chat.. they encourage me to be rude to them.

you have never been in game with a premade that wasn't toxic or trolling? that is highly unlikely.. btw top teemo is a counter to a lot of melee champs, i see it in a lot of ranked games where there are no premades..

a lot of the people here commenting are little whiny babies. I get annoyed when i get a premade in my games.. because i know that usually means the enemy team has a pre-made and i generally get the least skilled premades on my team. I have seen toxic premades, and i have seen pleasant premades. Some times i'll duo or trio with some friends but most generally i que solo. Having a premade on your team isn't an excuse to flame and be toxic, because quite simply there's never a good reason to flame, feed, troll, spam ping, and other toxic behaviors.. just mute and report people who annoy you.. and try to win the game.. don't encourage the toxic people to be more toxic by responding to their toxicity

Sure it is, when you are premade you can be as toxic as you want and antagonize a player from your team, and then when he reacts you can get him permabanned by having the report "numbers" to outdo his report. It's classic abuse of the automated system, but Riot refuses to acknowledge it with their "blah blah 1 vote counts as 9"... yeah bullshit. Multiple reports trigger an instant review, a single report doesn't do anything.

I've asked questions about the report system before and I've learned that the number of after-game reports on a single person doesn't matter. 1 report is no more important than 4 reports (from the same game). So premades don't actually have that advantage. All a report (or multiple reports) does is flag the game or player for review.
