I kinda feel bad for the toxic players

Many of them who are in fact toxic actually suffer from depression and uses league as an escape from reality.

When things dont go their way however, their anger kicks in, there with impulse, they lash out without knowing the consequences.

It's hard to hide your emotions when you go through so much in life, annoyed by everything whats going on. The hardships, the loneliness, the feelings of being unwanted, etc.

And with trolls ruining your day, it just makes everything worse...

What do you do in a situation like this? When life is shit and league is shit as well...

Man this is why people are toxic in league.

Trust me i have depression but that doesn't excuse from being a dick on the internet over a video game. maybe homicidal and sociopaths, but definitely not depressed.

In my case, it's just dumb stupid pride, because part of me just wants to gets good at this game.

But realistically, it's a PvP that requires so much time and has a varying learning curve for everyone. But alas, blanket statements are everywhere, and people like me have to suddenly get triggered upon dying ONCE in lane cause they expected to dominate.

Low elo players know so damn little, and there happen to be literally so many compared to what people consider "good" which may be around 0.01% of the whole playerbase.

Supposedly everyone including myself is so stupid, and yet they don't want to be.

Yeah, there are stubborn people who don't want to listen, and people flame them for good reason too.

I know I'm a horrible idiot at the game, which can be compared to a general who gets all of his troops killed in pointless campaigns.

I'm pretty toxic but dont suffer from depression. I am happy where my life is so far(wish there could be more but I'm still thankful.) I just get tilted when i see stupid people in the game so I'll flame you. Hence why on my main im stuck at honor level 3. Too many trolls and bad players in this game.

I can tell you based off of my toxic friends that depression isn't always the case. often it is a competitive nature and possibly obsessed with the idea of being better than others and/or a large ego. other people its stress of daily life combined with the game.

i definitely think that for some people with depression it is the case but others will just call it a night and cry and sulk after.

Gonna have to say nah to this one OP. I don't think I have clinical depression but most of my day in my house is miserable because of things I'd rather not talk about. That's no excuse for some of the stuff people say/do in game.
