Let me break this down for you. (Rant inside)
You didn't have to play with mentally challenged people on your team in High School because it would make both teams frustrated to have someone who was literally unable to play the game playing with you. You had no way to giving them any sort of constructive criticism without coming off like you're just yelling at a retarded person. I want a way to reset your MMR and give you another chance to get away from these people or a way to visibly track when people repeatedly refuse to work with their team instead of only looking at the people who lose their minds as a result of repeated griefing ie. "the toxic people". I have several accounts in plat which I know is dogshit to people in challenger but it means 10-20% of the time all the people on both teams care about the game instead of the god forsaken <1% i deal with when i jump on my "main" with 10-20k games played over the last 8 years. I just want to use what I've unlocked and bought to play the god damn game.
This is an example chat log from a game I just played. The Toplane Quinn decided to come bottom for over 5 minutes at about the 6 minute mark slowly whittling down scuttle, then trying to solo drag only to die to the dragon / the enemy team. The enemy Toplane Morgana takes one..then two towers over the next 3 or 4 minutes as this Quinn begins to run it down bot. Its the 13 minute mark now and I've asked this person to go top probably five times nicely, nicely to me is simply pinging that the lane needs assistance, pinging enemies missing, pinging lane needs assistance, not yelling at this person, pinging lane needs assistance, still not yelling, ping again, slowly losing mind, ping again, fuck this person I'm getting verbal.
While this is happening we have a Mid Ekko who has two mains, Ekko, and Yasuo. Trying to pick Yasuo he finds that the enemy mid laner has first picked him, and he picks Ekko. I look up his stats and think nothing of it, those are his two mains. This person died. Every single minute. For 10-15 minutes. I am pretty sure he lasted about 15 seconds after minions crashed. Now if sane, you'd think to yourself he probably knows exactly how to build against this situation, Ekko normally gets Zhon pretty early 1st or 2nd item he could just sit on a seekers armguard early scale up and be fine. Not rocket science this is what anyone who has played games for even a little bit would surmise. Yet he finishes Sorc Boots (???) and continues to rush Gunblade to my chagrin. At this point monitoring these two I lost my shit realizing that at the very least I am losing a half hour of my life and at most I am losing a half hour of my life and 15+lp which is worth another half hour plus ONE MORE half hour to actually get where I was trying to go originally. That's an hour and a half (conservative estimate as well) taken from me by two people who did not try to play the game. If they had tried I would have smashed. I always smash at this elo anyone who plays the game a lot knows it is not difficult because of lack of mechanics but it should not be a place where you literally have to tell people exactly how to build their character / how to roam (hint: You push the wave into the tower, or kill your lane mate, then roam)
In this chatlog I really want to emphasize some lines, I am going to put ample space between them so you can see which ones I mean,
A disclaimer, I have read and reread these lines many times both while reliving the context and while looking at it objectively. If presented with the same situation again my only wish is that I knew words which would cause a deeper reaction without being profane. But do people know what anything but pure slang / profanity means anymore? Does calling someone lackadaisical, ill willed, disrespectful, still work? Do I tell him I'm disappointed in him, like I'm his father?
Game 1 In-Game Þøøþy ßutthøle: omw bredren Þøøþy ßutthøle: where are the other two
**This is after mad pings fam I'm serious have you never felt this irritation? As soon as they take the first tower I know that my chances of winning dropped to 27.55% instantly based on the statistics THAT RIOT PROVIDED ME WITH. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LOSE THE SECOND TOWER WITHIN 5 MINUTES? What did this person singlehandedly drop my winrate to regardless of my actions? I'm not fighting a hodgepodge team either I'm fighting people who are out for b l o o d.
Þøøþy ßutthøle: What the fuck.. Þøøþy ßutthøle: quinn wtf Þøøþy ßutthøle: top?
-Þøøþy ßutthøle: How the fuck do you get a high win rate with people like Quinn
Þøøþy ßutthøle: Dude you roam when your wave is pushed in Þøøþy ßutthøle: Or when your enemy is dead
**This is real right here I want anyone who mutes me instead of changing their behavior to know these are the first two lines I think of every single time.
-Þøøþy ßutthøle: You stupid motherfucker -Þøøþy ßutthøle: Mute the truth I could give a shit
Þøøþy ßutthøle: Again do as you will you trashheap Þøøþy ßutthøle: Meanwhile this guy Þøøþy ßutthøle: Getting rocked 1v1 by his other main Þøøþy ßutthøle: smh Þøøþy ßutthøle: nice seekers btw ekko Þøøþy ßutthøle: This is actually crazy..
-Þøøþy ßutthøle: Feel like throwing up when I play with people like Quinn -Þøøþy ßutthøle: Thats ahuman being behin the computer being a fucking prick
Þøøþy ßutthøle: 10 Game win streak too? Þøøþy ßutthøle: Wtf happened to you? Þøøþy ßutthøle: I said yes lol
-Þøøþy ßutthøle: 3v7..can we do this
Þøøþy ßutthøle: that's weird since you have more team mates than usual Þøøþy ßutthøle: try just talking to them thtey'll talk back Þøøþy ßutthøle: ekko and quinn
This is probably 15-20 minutes into the game at this point, I have pinged his items many, many times -Þøøþy ßutthøle: Dumbass still hasn't bought seekers -Þøøþy ßutthøle: Tried a gunblade rush -Þøøþy ßutthøle: Like a fucking fool -Þøøþy ßutthøle: Not even a rush because he bought fucking sorc boots which hurt him hard -Þøøþy ßutthøle: I would rather ekko feed than quinn do what she did, that lost us the game to lose two towers before 13minutes
Þøøþy ßutthøle: Ekko you're dogshit right now man you need a break or some water Þøøþy ßutthøle: Maybe to sleep and wake up to someone slapping your face Þøøþy ßutthøle: Blows my mind you go on a 10 game win streak and then do this Þøøþy ßutthøle: You're the reason I didn't dodge man!
-Þøøþy ßutthøle: The fuck is with not buying Zhon -Þøøþy ßutthøle: If you die in two seconds no point in buying infinite damage
**At this point this crazy bastard is actually pinging people to be careful and randomly shotcalling while I'm convinced he's actually on an LSD trip..
Þøøþy ßutthøle: Your counter is... Þøøþy ßutthøle: Ekko signals...to be careful Þøøþy ßutthøle: Ekko...wants me Þøøþy ßutthøle: To be...carefl
**Realest thing that has ever been said in the history of this game coming up right here
Þøøþy ßutthøle: Human beings if observed by this game would be judged to be mentally retarded Þøøþy ßutthøle: The most calm person would become toxic after being forced to watch 100 games at this elo
**Here's some more real shit, call me crude call me acerbic I'm a grown man who sat down to play 2018's Chess and got the shaft
Þøøþy ßutthøle: why am i even here Þøøþy ßutthøle: to babysit fools who want to win lp by sucking the shit from their own asshole Þøøþy ßutthøle: like that ever works
**Why do I have to stay while they continuously die, why do I have to watch dragon die over and over, then baron, then inhib, then they b, then they pick someone, team fight where we get stomped, and we're finished. Do I have to spend 15-25 minutes dealing with that literally every single time we're losing? Can I not leave?
Þøøþy ßutthøle: I cannot get four of you to say yes because two of you are literally griefing
**This guy then had the nerve to give build advice to the enemy laners, at the end of the game, would you have been triggered, knowing what you know about the game?
Þøøþy ßutthøle: jesus christ now he's giving build advice Þøøþy ßutthøle: when he refused to build a seekers or zhonyas Þøøþy ßutthøle: against his fucking other main Þøøþy ßutthøle: which is yasuo, which you stole from him
**These last lines, truth, I am tired of this, if this person was in an internet cafe I would have thrown my chair at their head.
Post-Game Þøøþy ßutthøle: dude I want to tap you so badly Þøøþy ßutthøle: you have literally no idea
TLDR: You didn't have to play with mentally challenged people on your competitive teams in High School because it would make both teams frustrated to have someone who was literally unable to play the game playing with you. You had no way to giving them any sort of constructive criticism without coming off like you're just yelling at a retarded person and as a result of them you would have no way of judging the ability of the team to work as a whole. I want a way to reset your MMR and give you another chance to get away from these people or a way to visibly track when people repeatedly refuse to work with their team instead of only looking at the people who lose their minds as a result of repeated griefing ie. "the toxic people". Soft reset did nothing for this account every placement game was exactly the same. I do not know how to play this game in these conditions, if it can even be played.
My choice was to be quiet or to scream while being fucked. I chose to scream because maybe the police would hear me. I got a chat restriction. Does my metaphor give you pause? I am not smart enough to design the solution but I am smart enough to be aware that we need one. My name was My Loveless, My Misanthropic, but its now Poopy Butthole because I am at the point where I just want you griefers to know even if you fuck me I'll still shit all over you.
Mic drop I'm out
