Seriously. Please just remove any Item -choice- in league. Because personally I am getting tired of getting beaten over the head with the "meta" Now I am not a new player. But Meta has pretty much been turned into a weapon to beat teammates over the head. I was playing warwick jungle and doing pretty well. I didnt follow the "meta' or the recommended going with something that ended up working for me. I was trying to win, But the entire game all I got was flak because "I am reporting you" when I asked why, the response was "not following the meta" (yes this was actually said to me) So Riot games. Please for the next patch. Just remove any real item choice. Put in a feature where once you have your role and character locked in, the game will only make select items available to you. (Like the armor system in world of warcraft) These kids want to enforce what is "meta" so badly, and beat people over the head because they dont play or build how everyone else does. They dont like any outside strategy, then fine. TAKE IT ALL AWAY. Take away any choice they have. "This is your role, this is your champ? Ok, these are your pre-approved items for your "role"

Because i am getting sick of being beaten and badgered over the head by the "meta" and if anything just makes me not care about playing meta, or playing with my team. because their only interest is their need to talk down to teammates "I am right, you are wrong. -I- get to decide what you build, and if you dont. I will report you for "Trolling" because you arent building meta (aka build how I want!")

over and over people have their own strategies, and even in normal they arent allowed to do anything that goes against the precious meta, the "Rules from on high" that is dictated to everyone else. You either build like everyone else, or you are labeled a troll. Have your own strategy? tough, because you have people who spout off about meta and beat people over the head with it. "Reporting u for not building meta"

SO RIOT JUST STOP. save everyone the trouble Remove the element of choice from the game "You are Trynd? you are top lane? ok THESE are your permitted items. Oh you want to build something else? your team needs something different? sorry thats not allowed, it doesnt conform to the current meta" These people want everyone to conform so bad and pat themselves on the back "I helped beat a little deviant player till they fell back in line and built according to the current meta, I am so special" I AM SO F&$#@ SICK of constantly being told that I am a troll and reported for playing to MY OWN STRATEGY. I have a different way of playing? a different build that meshes better with how I play? Nah thats not allowed because your precious PRO LCS FKING META has turned the standard into what is now the "League of Legends INQUISITION" How DARE you actually think for yourself.

I am not a new player, I just wanted to start fresh...to try and build my MMR back up from the ground. (essentially to do a hard "Reset" on my profile" but I am getting more and more stressed because people are too busy trying to tout their own superiority. They dont want a team to play on, they want 4 other "minions" they can talk down to, degrade, insult, and threaten when the team doesnt play how they want, or perform to their levels. I just got out of a match where I lost count how many times the jungler was telling everyone to go "kys" and the enemy lucian refered to their jungler as "our tryndamere has downs", referring to him as a "gay retard" People want to try and sound cool on the internet. And yeah, its already getting to that point where I Am just gonna start blocking out my teams. (I bought kayn to play him so I will be playing kayn in either Mid jungle or support.

So yeah The summoners code is now a JOKE, thought of as toilet paper and flushed just as easily. Who cares about a team, Riot has spent so much effort pushing the "Pro LCS SOLO CARRY" that the thought of "Team Carry" is a joke. You Got what you wanted Riot. You want the pro dollars? you got people wanting to play pro. And the only way to do that is to stab your team in the back, be the best at the cost of your team. Use your team for your own selfish ends. And when you are done, make sure you kick your team down and degrade them so they dont stand as high as you. Make sure your own team knows that the are useless scum compared to the glory that is YOU. This is the mentality that you have created. That you have fostered. The #1 most toxic community is your reward. Rip - Summoners code ???? - 2017

Mute them and do your thing. Just because something isn't meta at the time, doesn't mean it won't be. I'm pretty sure the Yi/Kayle Ardent/Knight's combo wasn't meta. Now that people have seen it and think it is beastly means others will come about. Gragas support? Wasn't considered Meta until LCS. Lucien mid? Troll until LCS. The meta is constantly shifting, ignore the people who are being closed minded. The only thing I request, is let it make sense. If the champ doesn't have an AP scaling ability, don't build it ap.

Your Warwick build is not the most optimal, but it's not reportable. Some builds are, tbh, if it's intentionally causing your team to lose in ranked. Like building AP Yasuo knowing that is useless.

The system has the ability to filter out false reports, so them reporting you for trolling probably doesn't do anything unless you did something to validate their report.

On the other hand, you can report them for harassment. It is considered mild toxicity and will be punished over large amount of games of consistently behaving the same way.

When people don't follow summoner's code, they get punished, so no RIP there.

People whom are hyper about the META either aren't good enough to analyze why it makes things meta or are super good at analyzing and running multiple scenarios in their mind. Most the time it's the former.
