"Kill Yourself"

Recently, I played a match where I was the only one winning lane, but I did very well. Nearly 1v5 their fed team. Only losing the the low health 5th guy. This was 5v5 both premades

We had a Leblanc that was certain we would lose. A Quinn who thought the same but I changed her mind, and an ADC Ahri whom believed me when I said we could win. Our 5th guy dc'd for a bit (to eat) so he wasn't in the vote.

Getting to my point. I went 32/5/14 as Fiora vs a Trynd top, he clearly didn't know the matchup. Now the reason I couldn't really assist my team is because I accidentally brought ignite instead of tp (not too bad on Fiora, especially against Trynd) And I couldn't really roam because of Trynd's pushing.

Okay so I managed to carry the game through shot calling and murdering their team. Was difficult. At the end of the game, their nunu and galio said screw you Fiora, and kill yourself.

Now I'm fine if I'm called any sort of insult. But no one should ever intentionally tell someone to end their life. That's going too far, I understand how frustrating it must've been. But that should make no difference.

I have pictures, but they're on my phone, unless anyone knows how I could show them

Best thing you could do is just report them for verbal abuse or unsportsmanlike behavior. The anonymity of the internet allows people to say some pretty grimy insults. Not everyone shares the same moral views as each other.

My GF who suffers from depression and low self esteem has harmed herself in the past. We've been in matches where our/their team were so insulting and toxic to her it made her slip into the hole so to speak. I've seen people insult her, tell her to kill herself, tell her to slit her wrists, say she's a slut, say she's not wanted, and more than I care to type. People have said "this is the internet" well that doesn't excuse what's being said. I've had to spend 30 minutes to an hour trying to calm her down cause she broke down crying and was saying they were right. This is a game we play to have fun together and spend time with each other. We report them but more often than not nothing is done about it. Someone will take things to heart one day and they will end their life because of the people in this game. Who knows it may have already happened and we just don't know about it. Remember everyone, words have more power than you think they do.

It's unfortunate, but there are always going to be people like this in video games regardless of how strongly they are moderated. The best you can do is send that picture to Riot via a support ticket and hope the guy didn't take it too seriously.

You can report for post-game chat. They're sent to Riot.
