Insight into the mind of toxicity
Game 1 woodvsmurph: ward woodvsmurph: or they will invade (team sees 4 enemies in river who back off once seen, but not very far) woodvsmurph: ekko u really need to roam and help team instead of sit mid when ahri leaves to help her team (4th time enemy mid has roamed with no help from ekko, no mia, and ekko doesn't even shove lane in; 2nd teamfight with ekko afk farming minions right next to a 4v5 teamfight) woodvsmurph: push lane woodvsmurph: either rotate top, or shove mid and get tower woodvsmurph: make up your minds (3 teammates mid vs one opponent; I'm top getting chased and flashed down by 3 enemies - one of whom roamed from mid with no mia) woodvsmurph: shove out bot, get drag woodvsmurph: let's move people (prepping for teamfight over drag in when it spawns in 30 sec and we have no vision of anything botside; I'm going with them as frontline to protect them in case enemy got back from basing faster than expected; half of team doesn't follow - farms jg camps instead) woodvsmurph: what happened team? woodvsmurph: i peeled 3 people woodvsmurph: how the fuck does adc and sup die? Why is ekko in the damn base? (ekko finished farming bot side raptors and bases at full hp instead of coming to help with fight at dragon; adc and support are dead within 2 sec of fight opening; I'd peeled enemy adc and two others; my lane opponent was weak and shoudn't be able to burst a level 2 soraka, much less level 14+ adc and support and jungler) woodvsmurph: come on guys woodvsmurph: ekko, group the fuck up when we go to fight woodvsmurph: or u are reported (ekko continuing to afk farm side lane instead of defend towers with us or help teamfight; pushing with no vision, gets picked off 1v1 or 1v3 or 1v4 multiple times because nobody helping me ward except our support; if ekko can't 1v1 any of them, just group and help waveclear instead of splitting, offering no map pressure and being a free kill every time someone roams to fight you) woodvsmurph: bot, jungle, mid woodvsmurph: group 4 woodvsmurph: fucking be useful woodvsmurph: there's 2+ people following me all game woodvsmurph: so go the fuck in and GET SOMETHING (I try splitting because I can 1v1 anyone on their team despite being put further and further behind by bad teamfights - thanks for that ekko; team doesn't group and still getting nothing done splitpushing; just group 4, and I will give you a 4v3 which you CAN win; splitting with anyone other than me gets us nothing because no one else can split 1v1 and apply pressure) woodvsmurph: u are 4v3 if you group woodvsmurph: fucking do something woodvsmurph: group the fuck up already (about 10 min after first asking team to group 4 and 3+ failed attempts to split due to teammates not grouping and punishing enemy for sending 2+ people to deal with me) woodvsmurph: ekko start it now woodvsmurph: ashe woodvsmurph: stay with team woodvsmurph: pls for the love of god woodvsmurph: stay with the team (we have chance due to some picks and enemy with low hp to force a 4v1 baron; ashe runs bot to farm minion wave instead - minion wave was NOT threatening our towers or anything - she could have gotten baron and recalled to farm it by tower just fine; instead, baron is too low to leave - we have to risk 4v4 w/o either jungler; we lose baron and 3 people when we could have turned the game around; only about the 10th time others greeding for cs and being selfish has thrown away easy obvious chance to win) woodvsmurph: u just gave them 3 kills and baron woodvsmurph: because u wanted farm bot so badly woodvsmurph: pls stop being so damn selfish woodvsmurph: u think just maybe u shouldn't stay shoved 2v5 with no hp? (we get some reply kills when enemy overextends with baron after killing inhib, we have 2 alive at low hp who push to from mid inhib to enemy inner tower; enemy respawns 5 people; i ping several times that enemy is alive and to back off; team stays and dies; enemy has 5v3 easy push to take objectives and break 2nd inhib) woodvsmurph: just listen to your damn toplaner who won lane 1v2 woodvsmurph: instead of running around like noobs woodvsmurph: stay the fuck back woodvsmurph: do not chase woodvsmurph: see - we win easy if we don't be idiots (I get off another flash engage to spoon feed fed enemy adc to my teammates - barely making it out alive in a 5v4 to stop enemy from getting 2nd inhib while their toplaner pushes in our top lane to pressure inhib tower; we get a 2nd kill and defend bot inhib tower while losing top tower; if we'd 4-1 tried to defend both, we'd have lost both and probably the game off the resulting kills) woodvsmurph: ward our jg pls woodvsmurph: no woodvsmurph: we can't contest baron woodvsmurph: we fed too much (team wants to 3v5 contest baron when we are all 2+ levels behind and an item or more behind while we have no vision of anywhere in our topside jungle, much less baron itself; I'd asked them to ward earlier but apparently warding jungle when enemy bases is difficult when 4 teammates have trinket wards off cd and mine are all used for the next 40 sec) woodvsmurph: only fight at tower woodvsmurph: jesus people woodvsmurph: can u stop inting for 10 sec? (jungle and mid decide to 2v5 contest enemy stealing blue buff before they go take baron; they die even with bot and me rushing to try to save them) woodvsmurph: and just work with me? woodvsmurph: i was; i got us the kill woodvsmurph: then left cuz low hp idiot (jungle and mid flame me for leaving fight with 200hp after we trade 1 kill for 4 deaths; I secured us the kill with yet another engage before jungle and mid overcommitted and got entire team aced by engaging on rest of team when we were all half hp from grabbing the first kill on out-of-position enemy; we could have based, healed, bought, and run back to defend top inhib tower or open inhibs mid/bot; but they had to flash engage 5v4 when we're all half hp and no ults vs 4 fed full hp enemies with level and item advantages compared to us; somehow this is my fault - yet again)
And when this is your in-game experience for over 50% of games on a GOOD week, you can imagine why you might just say some mean stuff. When jungle and mid (different people in other matches) decide to force 2v5 for the 8th time, then blame you for their deaths... the entire game - why I can't see how you could possibly get toxic with them. When you win a lane 1v2 and could 4-1 split in a 1v2 and win the game if only your team 4v3 grouped, pressured map to keep enemy team from making it a 3v1 or 5v1 of toplane, but they instead split or play like a coward (farming right next to a 4v5 teamfight that your team NEEDS to fight; not one you could skip)... I can't imagine why you might get upset at your team. When you adjust to their refusal to group 4 by grouping with them to protect them only to have mid or adc leave teamfight and objective to go farm 20 minions and cost the fight and objective which you WOULD have gotten had they stayed and helped... I can't imagine why you might get upset at them.
When they've done this 10x after you clearly and NICELY explain to them or ask them to do something only to have them ignore you and keep throwing away these fights and they tell you to "just chill out" or "stop being so toxic" I can't imagine why you might get upset. When IFS detects you saying "fuck" or "idiots" and punishes you, but these teammates who threw the game 20x over and blame YOU for losing the game go undetected (despite being reported) and unpunished, I can't imagine why you'd get toxic and call someone an idiot. I mean clearly the guy's a genius for blaming you for him dying 2v5 for the 10th time by forcing a fight he shouldn't take... that you told him NOT to take... in a place where he has no vision... where you'd asked team to ward 30 sec ago when the enemy had recalled and was in base so it was SAFE to ward there... but they didn't ward. Hmmm... yep, can't find ONE SINGLE REASON for such a player to get upset. His teammates were all clearly perfect, kind, grateful, and never made a single mistake. Never once harassed him. Never hung the guy out to dry. Never threw an obvious easy opportunity to win a fight, grab an objective, or take an advantage.
And remember - this isn't an isolated game. This isn't a "bad" game from this toplaner's teammates. This is a typical game he will experience in 50+ percent of his matches. Over half his losses completely out of his control to avoid. Tilted from past losses, this patient with team and willing to sacrifice himself that much to give team the win. That on-point with macro play, rotations, warding, objectives, etc. in... silver elo. Hardstuck silver when he's been gold the last 2 seasons because after winning a game where he and his team roll over every enemy laner and pubstomp, he gets 2 games where his team feeds one lane, gracefully loses another, and has a 3rd that's afk farming 80% of the game no matter what goes on on the map. Because team can't follow simple shotcalls (group 4, hold a tower, ward this area, etc.) even when it's said nicely, even when it's repeated 3x in 10 min and their alternate shotcalls (which he's gone along with despite knowing they're bad and explaining why after they fail) his team won't adjust and just listen or give alternate call a try. Maybe 1 or 3 members get on board, but always someone gotta recall to buy a health pot at 30 min into game that they couldn't have done in the last 30 sec when nothing was going on right before a teamfight. Can't delay buying that potion or longsword to help fight over a crucial objective. Raptor camp worth more than infernal dragon. Everyone knows an adc with 20 extra cs outweighs 3 dead teammates and baron buff on 5 fed enemies. Lol. And don't forget... it's always toplaner's fault. For pointing out how wrong adc is to farm 20 cs bot at cost of baron, he's being toxic; not clearly trying to help team understand why they need to listen to shotcalls and make better decisions to help the entire TEAM. For telling jungler he's an idiot for flaming toplaner for letting him die 2v5 instead of tp'ing into the middle of the enemy team to make it a 3v5, the toplaner is toxic and abusing the innocent jungler who's only died 8 times forcing plays like that because his toplaner can't instantly tp to an unwarded location to give his jungler a 3v5 vs a bunch of fed enemies who can practically 1-shot a tank with all their burst and cc. Why do I play this game again? Oh right, for the rare occasion where I don't have toxic intentional feeders ruining my game and reporting me as toxic for losing it on them after they throw the game for the 20th time while blaming me for everything that goes wrong.
Can I make it to 22 downvotes in honor of Taylor Swift's song? Since boards would never upvote something like this no matter how logical it may be and how truthful the presentation.
