From a Concerned Player

I'm an average and everyday League of Legends player like many of you. And also like many of you, I have had my gameplay experience ruined or severely damaged by other players who seem to get a joy out of purposefully making things difficult for others. Case in point is a recent game I played of solo queue. I was paired with a 4 man pre-made and on the other team another 4 man pre-made (solo queue right?) despite I having been queueing by myself.

This wouldn't bother me, if the pre-made I was playing with didn't turn out to be incredibly toxic, and begin to purposefully feed (they stated so themselves, with the jungler promising to return to die to my lane again when he could give him blue). The game continued with repeated feeding and flaming from them. Not towards themselves as they continued to make mistakes and die intentionally, no way the pre-made would blame one another. Eventually to the point that the 4 members decided to lie to the other team that I was toxic and aggressive, and worse of all had been calling them racial slurs, when in fact it was the other way around. Unfortunately, I do not have screenshots or video footage, but the truth remains the same. And if anything, Riot has the logs and in game chat they need to prove the things they did, and I have their summoner names screenshotted in the hopes that someone out there IS reading this post.

I'm here because this was one of the most toxic and detrimental groups I have ever experienced. A group that came with the sole intent of ruining the experience for others. And I fear that unfortunately, because I expect I was the only one who reported them, nothing will be done about this, and this group will continue to plague and harass and ruin games for others. And so I come here knowing I haven't been the first to ask for this, asking for something to be done about groups or individuals like this. I myself have been toxic in the past, I can not deny it. And having seen the effects that toxicity can have, would like to see something done about it. I am fully prepared to be punished for what I've said or done in the past, if it means it is a beginning to culling the toxic behavior of groups like these.

I don't want groups like this one to get away with doing things like this. Think about it, if they go unpunished, they will continue to harass and ruin games for others. And in the future, it could be any of you reading this post. Until something is done, it won't stop. I'm no one special to request that special attention be given to this group. I'm sure many others have asked for help with the groups and individuals who have made their experience an awful one. But I'm asking as someone who dearly loves this game and the fun times it offers, to please do something. I feel it is my duty as a member of the community to seek some sort of justice for this group, to prevent further individuals from being harmed by this same group. But then again, I'm just one member in a sea of millions. Regardless, I hope something can be done.

If you've stuck with me across this whole tirade, I thank you.

I mean honestly I don't see Riot as caring at all about the community other than people who are 'toxic.' They allow trolls to run through the game non-stop and punish free. I think its just a way to make more money honestly. Like someone else said. You do anything those people don't like, that is 4 reports. Now 95% of the time they will convince 1-2 of the enemies you are toxic and what not despite being totally nice in all chat all game. Then you can have up to 9 reports (you will be instantly suspended by the little punishment bot) which will get you punished NO MATTER WHAT THE LOGS SAY! Your first time is usually a 14 day, next is a perma. I get this shit CONSTANTLY. I was just trolled by only a Duo last night. They managed to convince 7 people to report me and one person even honored me (from my team) that game saying how annoying those trolling children were. However, I was still punished of course. Because 7 reports.

It's becoming more and more common.

Hopefully others did report them if they were as toxic with them as they were with you. And hopefully even the enemy team could see when they were intentionally feeding and thus probably lying about your toxicity. Of course, sadly, sometimes the enemies don't care about your misfortunes. Best of luck in getting justice.

League used to have quality Solo Queue. Now it's team of duos and hope the group doesn't suck.

If they deal with ppl like you mentioned then they'll be removing the entire community.

Exaggeration aside, lower league is indeed filled with that kind of players and as long as riot is lenient with their punishments they'll remain.

That downside to party system.If they are smart and werent part of same club it be very hard prove to other team that they are toxic one. when it 4 people say no it such such and we dying cuz we typing or some other excuss it seem believiable.Then again doubt they gave it much though to not be part of same club if 4 them :P

Idk why people troll from start.You should atleast have reason for it,like ur mad about not geting ur lane or jungle gank you to die to enemy gave red/blue buff.Mean they are shitty reason and dont justify it.....but troll for no reason over u get upset for reason and troll is better i think.Atleast i only trolled when someone pissed me off crying dont instant lock,even though i know what champion im going play dont care about lane spot.BUT players think u must play Certain champions in certain spots or ur trolling if u pick something not deemed as that lane spot ur troll,they hollar,they scream demand YOU change what YOU want to play cuz it YOUR FUN and YOU want to play certain champion.....my point

WISH RIOT WHEN REMIND/POST/UPDATE THAT META ISNT RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! idea that certain champion MUST BE PLAYED in lane isnt fun for everyone.Where is fun in know that every game have physical damage range champion bottom lane,and another champion that has cc some kinda most likely or heal/strong poke.FIRM BELIEF meta is reason for well over half real reason why people toxic.I know it mine.

----legit start legit new first time level to lvl 30.me and friend meet.....we play ww and lux bottom....did it for while after lvl 30....cuz i didntn o what adc was.he didnt no what adc was (this was middle s3). We just enjoy champion,been playing and we didnt do awful we got kill and no one rage.SOON u hit lvl 30 and go rank rage.yelling.anger. You die in rank it like ur just punch someone 1yo in face and piss on them.After few game in s3 i said forget rank,forget these f---er cuz every game atleast 1 person who just mad all game yelling at me or someone on team.More often not,why someone get mad in selection cuz someone want play something normal champion for lane or want go top ,already top.NO RULE say MUST be JUNGLE every game....goes back meta...we all....majority have smurf account for reason or another and we all play game 5-15 with normally no jungle or rarely jungle.Games are fun,we win or lose and no jungle.Idk why people think game where everyone is require copy same concept is fun,think RIOT NEEDS to state more clearly meta isnt rule or atleast make it rule one of too.

If people are going cry about meta and demand people play certain role atleast make it rule and make it large announcement that clearly state in game and make tutorial required and clearly state it is rule or isnt! making tutorial mandatory also help make people less tempt in way want to make smurf,notice new tutorial is alot longer then old one few weeks back.ANYWAYS PLZ RIOT STATE FOR ONCE META RULE OR NOT.IF NOT FUCKN MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT IN GAME ON LOGIN SAY IT NOT DAMN RULE!
