Can I be angry?

Mal the Red·Jun 8, 2016·3 votes·757 views

When I have a Yi and a Vayne on my team that are so full of themselves that they refuse to end a game that's obviously not fun for the other three players?

I have no idea how I'm supposed to respond to this... I want to respect the surrender vote, but I can't. I want to respect the other two players, but I can't. I want to play a game where I'll actually have fun, BUT I CAN'T!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't League of Legends supposed to be a game? When I stop having fun in a game, I want to stop playing. But I can't quit without getting punished, and I can't stay in the game without growing resentment for the two players keeping me from having fun playing the game.

Then they have the balls to tell me I'M wasting THEIR time?!

I... I simply do not know what to do...

You could try joining a local amateur sports team...

Then when you're playing, you can give up every time the other team gets a lead early in the game....

On a sidenote, it has been my experience that the most fun league games are the ones where you are behind and orchestrate an awesome comeback because no one in your team is a quitter.

This will never be a good comparison, because getting scores/goals in a real game does not make a person 'fed' and make it easier for them to get more scores. Good come backs are fun, but Most of the time it's pretty obvious who's going to win. If the game was close to begin with then it wasn't a come back.

The snowballing aspect of the game does not in fact make any difference to my argument. Comebacks still happen.

It is a 100% certainty that you will NEVER come back if you always give up before you can.

Don't let slip even the smallest fraction of anger in a game or you get punished.

Meanwhile griefers can have their way as they like.

Do you think Riot has an emotional status detection system? What I mean is, if you were to get angry, but not rage at people, do you think Riot would still punish you?

Do what i usually do, Mute.

Muting won't stop them from ruining my experience, they will still assault me with repeated pings, which I can't turn off by the way.

Muting won't stop them from reporting me. And because I get angry, they have a base which to report me.

You are not supposed to have fun playing league of legends. The fun is in the bm.

The best thing you could is just report any hostile or toxic behavior that they show. Although it may not seem like much, this behavior occurs in many games in many elos. Try to forget about any frustration after games and move on after reporting them. Sorry that you had to run into toxic players and good luck in future games.
