What the HELL is wrong with you people?

How are you all so inculcated with the idea that being upset at something automatically makes you "toxic". Where did riot go wrong with their crusade against the "toxic" player and trying to make a happier gaming environment? This community has taken that idea to the utmost extreme and it is beginning to get ridiculous. You can't even sneeze in this god forsaken game nowdays without someone regurgitating the word "toxic" and reciting it like a mantra to ward off evil. "Why are you blatantly running into the enemy team and building blasting wand on garen as your first item? are you trying to lose us the game" TOXIC TOXIC TOXIC TOXIC. "Why are you stealing my blue? I'm trying to stack my devourer and you are our top laner" TOXIC TOXIC TOXIC. You people are so aggressive about being passive. DON'T SAY ANYTHING TO THE GUY RUINING YOUR GAME ON PURPOSE YOU MIGHT UPSET HIM. Like really? We defend trolls now? gg riot. gg.

We don't defend trolls. We report them along with the ones who feel they should flame them. Because let's face it: they're both in the wrong.

You need to work on your phrasing.

There's this thing called tact. You can communicate your preferences without being negative. Also sometimes there is a valid reason for doing things like taking your jungler's blue (not saying it was justified in this particular case).

As far as the blasting wand, I would just ignore that. Hopeless case for you to say anything at all there. For the blue "steal", you might try something like, "lol guess I'll delay stacking my devourer since you needed our blue buff xD".

I had a game yesterday in which our team was trying to throw by not taking objectives. I said something like, "we need to GROUP and take some fucking TOWERS please :D" and then I pinged help on bottom outer turret. And then the team grouped and took towers. And then we won. You gotta sprinkle a little love into your communication. Does your Yasuo keep dying to Pantheon mid? "Yasuo, I love you baby but you can't survive mid so you need to go to another lane my friend".

psssttt... you will get a devourer stack when you "takedown" a large monster.

Takedowns are defined as "kills / assists".

So if you've damaged the monster, you'll get a stack regardless of who kills it.

OK, I'll admit this is a good point. Not sure I agree with the rest of the post, but I do agree that "toxic" has become a word too quickly thrown out.
