Recently I feel like there has been a pretty drastic increase of the amount of toxicity in the league community, pretty roughly when overwatch started coming into play. Me and my friend have had a player or two nearly every game that has been rude, insulting, and fed like crazy. Has anyone else noticed this? Is this just my group's curse? Have all the decent players left to play the new game and now its just all the annoyances?
Some days I love ALL my teams, others days I know I'll hate a game before I even load in. Ive been trying to get my Ahri to rank 7, and I seldom get mid since I also play support. All three times I got to it just one play on my team would ruin to. First game, jungle locked ahri and fed enemy fizz blue buff after I leashed, trying to have faith in our non meta jg. Somehow still won that game, but still. Next game top pick wanted to mid, i said nah, so his duo partner bans ahri, and this dude still plays a mage top and gots 2/9, after that our adc just says no I'm going mid.
I don't know what it it with people, but am I the only one that understands that the game lobby locks us into anywhere from 20-45 minutes of gameplay, why do people insist on ruining it before it starts
grow a pair and grow up and focus on the reason why people are toxic. some people have crappy lives or they get trolls in their game all game. players wont be blue sky and sunshine attitudes all day ! [slayer-jinx-wink]
This is only my opinion, but I personally don't see a whole lot of it. Could be for a lot of reasons if it really is that bad: maybe there are less toxic players at my skill level, or because it primarily occurs in ranked, or because I simply don't play as much as I used to. I suspect I may just be a bit more patient with these types of players though. I keep a cool head, mute the player(s) in question if necessary, and report them after the game. There really isn't a whole lot that can be done in the moment so I do my best move on and not let it get to me.
Honestly, a lot of these players in question probably aren't even that bad overall. We all have off games/days. If anyone told me that they've never gone 0/5 in laning phase I'd call them a liar. It's entirely possible that the person feeding on your team is just having one of those games, but since we often only have that one game as our reference, we assume that they are a terrible player. I don't exactly have a solid argument for those who are verbally toxic, nor am I defending the ones who really are toxic; I just want to provide some insight to the other side of the argument.
i just got done with an aggressive player and boy its hard not to rip my hairs off my head but a last they are the one suffering not me :o
Sums it up i guess.
meh, it switches for me from time to time. I have days were I have DIAMOND ELO SMURFS (with caps because that is what they do) who do nothing else then complaining that one player didn't give up their role and start feeding and I have days were everybody is actually really nice.
I get toxic when people piss me off first. Other wise I just play as if i am playing with a bunch bots.
for examples I played several games today. 1 of my Cassiopeia games, my jungler died in my lane, last hit my blue. I didn't say anything because I understood that it was just accidents.
in my last game as ez bot lane, my supp was standing behind me all day didn't do much so I said "help me zone" and she did although she died but it was 1 for 1 I was okay with that and she ended up feeding draven from opponent's team but it wasn't really her fault, she wasn't good but draven just had too much damage, and I saw that it only took draven 3 hit to finish her off. So I didn't say anything.
However, one game as kog, my supp was bad as usual, he didn't know how to zone or ward. I had to ping him several time and I still ended up warding the bush myself. Alistar standing behind me and get zoned to the river (ridiculous). Pushed my lane when I backed and helped opponent reached level 6. So I was pissed, but my words were just: wtf, you costing me cs, you helped them reach level 6 first, and stop being a pussy. and guess what happen? Alistair didn't say anything because i was right. but lee sin in that jungle who didn't help nothing said: muted bot, shut up keep texting. after alistar who wasn't texting got caught and I tried to save him and both of us died. and called me feeder. that is what could get me toxic not when someone playing poorly, or losing a game. You don't know nothing but you bsing, insulting others while completely ignorant. He pinged for help I followed, and I was behind, so I actually wasn't willing to, I just wanted to farm, but I still went in and died, again call me a garbage. I was behind as a kogmaw. he then came bot, wanted to gank but I saw their jungler and mid lane coming too and I was too behind, so I ping him to back out like 4 times, and he didn't and screwed up and all of us died, and he blame me again for feeding useless not following up. (if I hadn't followed it, I would have survived.) I didn't say anything at that point, yet he blamed me. He is the one who made bad calls and he wanted to report me. zed one shot me and I am feeder. So I am toxic, cause after all that bs I was calling him retard and he said enjoy your ban and I was like enjoying you mama. So? player like that doesn't do crap and just blame others is better than people who curse? by the end of the game he said: i hope you change your attitude. lmao.
