I was about to stop playing

Hello there, I just wanted to bring this up, because recently, I often see threads of people that are really upset and want to quit LoL. First of all, if you want to leave LoL, it's your decision. But it depends on your reason imo. I was about to leave league twice. in 2014 and 2015. I didn't like some changes back then, I lost interest in the game and I lost my mentality to flamers. Nowadays, I love this game again. It feels like there is nothing that can stop my motivation and ranked is going extraordinarily nice for me.

If you just need motivation, I can give you these tipps: Ignore flamers and blamers It is hard somestimes. I hate to mute people myself, because I always think, they are not really that mean and they could bring up some good strategy still. Over the years (playing league for almost 4 years now) I learned to resist. What flamers and blamers say, doesn't matter to me anymore. I know who I am. I know what I can do. Everyone can have bad games, but don't let others drag you down. Be your own champion and always give your best.

I had a time when I got tilted extremely fast extremely often. That is no joke, I left normal and ranked games on a weekly base. I think it was 2015, where I got about 20 - 30 leaverbusters in just one year. I should have been banned at that time I think. But I am glad I wasn't. I have reformed to a good person, I never ever flame anymore and I always try to keep up the positive attitude. Do not get tilted by teammates playing bad, you too can play bad sometimes. Do not flame back. It doesn't matter who started it, if you insult someone, because they flamed you, it is your fault. You have to be responsible for your own mistakes.

I hate when my mains get nerfed. So does everyone I guess. But don't stop playing that champion then. A nerf is just a challenge. Proof that you can still win with a weaker champion and you can call yourself a master.

Best quote right there. Ignore them. Mute them if you can't. Don't let the "WHY U NO RUSH INFINITY EDGE?! NOOB ADC" comments get to you.

This thread really speaks to me because I never muteall because of the wonderful banter we can get going with the enemy if they are really playful. This I feel outweighs the potential flame.

I'm personally hard to tilt, but when I do get tilted it comes out subtly in my gameplay. Like if my team calls me useless enough times, I won't say anything back, but inside I feel like I have to prove myself to them. So either I make slightly riskier plays and try to be at every teamfight to help so they can't call me useless or I shut down and play super safely, but no matter what I can't play my fullest.

I feel like this coupled with stress to not screw things up for my team is why I have such trouble playing ranked, and usually stop after my placements, if I do them at all. I've been improving with not letting flame get to me but internal stress to do well is still a major block to playing ranked for me.
