It's ok to fuck up when you don't have ill intentions behind your actions

I know people get angry and get tilted from people that aren't playing as skillful as they are, whether this is due to Riot's bad matchmaking or just queuing up with someone in normals, and that person just happens to be bad. Happens to the best of us. However, being bad, accidentally fucking the game somehow obviously sucks if your team has worked super hard, and you have also tried to make an effort (it shows) isn't a crime. I believe that everybody, ABSOLUTELY everybody has done something of the sort, unless someone comes up to me and says they've never singlehandedly/indirectly fucked a game for their teammates. I don't think even top tier players like TheShy, Faker has never fucked up once in their lives. We all get tilted, if your teammate is playing bad and refusing to take the blame for throwing/being toxic/inting/afking, that's a different game. Some people I've came across are bad, but they make an effort, and they try their best and they listen. In those games, I never got tilted, and I were in situations where my teammate made a dumb mistakes and fricked the game, but at least they apologize for it. And honestly, making mistakes are human - however that's not an excuse to int.

Making mistakes are ok, and sometimes we do have to remember it's just a game. Not everything is on the stake here. Imagine pro players- this is literally their career, and they manage to keep their cool on stage (mostly). They actually have something on the line here. I'm not saying that you don't, because people do put time into this game - but sometimes we should look at ourselves than always flaming other people (when they weren't being toxic in the first place and did apologize).

That's true. On the other hand, what's not excusable is knowingly making a mistake and then repeating it.

"Please don't face check their JG when you don't know where their JG is." "Oh, right, my bad." (does it again)

"Sir, did you know your right tail light isn't working?" "Ah, no." "Go get it fixed. Just a warning this time." (gets pulled over next week for broken taillight)

When you die 2-3 times to dives, that's fine.

When you have 12 deaths because you refused to use your brain, that's ill-intent and it shows you have absolutely no respect for your time as well as mine.

Most people rage in League have 100% perfect reason too.... The amount stupid excuses people give is astounding...

  • Face checks bush and dies "Sorry new to this champ"..

yea, new to league too?

People give stupid excuses for things that have nothing to do with trying a new champ, like constantly playing aggressive and feeding 0-6 top lane "sorry new to this champ" isn't an excuse... you should know by the 2nd death to play safer,, ESPECIALLY if you're knew to the champ...

This is just 1 of 100's of examples.

Depends on whether it's a ranked or a normal game. I'll go above and beyond tryhard to try and turn around a ranked game because it's ranked, and I care. But if I'm playing a normal game I will afk if two people are blocking a surrender vote and I'm not having fun anymore, because the whole reason I'm playing normals in the first place is to have fun. Ranked: I play to win, Normal: I play to have fun. Ranked: I'll play safer after I die. Normal: I'll keep diving the 10/0 garen because I want to. I guess it's more about limit testing in normals and once I found those limits and I can no longer win lane I don't want to play anymore.
