Riot Supports Inting, Toxic and Griefing Players

My first ranked game of the day and I get one of your prized possessions in my game. Every day this week I have had 4 to 5 trolls and feeders in my game. Every day someone is toxic, feeds, griefs, refuses to communicate, calls people names, and is toxic. This Teemo fed 6 to 7 kills before 20 mins, lost his turret before 12 mins, and refused to communicate or listen when we told him to build AP. He refused to to listen to anyone and just was not a teamplayer. You want to know what happened? Because of this one bad player, the bot lane that was ahead is now completely irrelevant because Trundle is roaming. You want to know what happened? The Fizz that was doing very well and ahead in his lane, lost his significant lead because Trundle roamed. Teemo didn't ping, Teemo didn't take his tower, Teemo didn't listen. Teemo died several more times because he just refused to be a team players and was toxic.

There are tons of thread about legit players purposely throwing matches, being placed in elos they shouldn't be, and just feeding. I can spot a player having a bad game a mile away. I've been playing since season 2 so I know. Lately it is all these players that just shouldn't be playing ranked. These are players that don't take it seriously, don't take the time to read up about the game, want to annoy other players on purpose, and don't want to listen to others. This is a team game and you try your hardest to make it that way with all the changes in the game. How can you add all these things that make it easier to communicate and work as a team, when your biggest problem is the community itself? Ultimately I am responsible for my behavior in game and so is everyone else. It gets annoying to have to deal with these players in EVERY ranked game. You know, we know and they know they shouldn't be playing ranked if they are going to sit here and int. First time players should be Bronze 5 and work their arse off to get to a higher elo.

I get on a role with winning 10 games and doing good to get myself in Silver 1 and even got my promos for it. To get players after that who are toxic, feed, grief, go afk, leave the game, and don't take it seriously. Why are they in ranked then? If they are like this then go back to playing normals. Players may be responsible for their behavior in game. RIot, you are responsible for allowing players, like this Teemo and so many others, to que into ranked games to be negative and int. Get them out.

So... teemo playing a different build than you like and dying a few times means they’re trolling?

You have proved nothing except that you think you are the boss and that everyone must play exactly the way you want them to or else they’re bad. He doesn’t have to build AP just because you want him to. You aren’t the boss of him.

We didn't have a problem with him building what he wanted to build. The Fizz suggested building AP because it would help him when Trundle was running at him with shrooms. You want to know what Teemo did? He walked over to Fizz's lane and taunted and then went all the way back to his lane to die again. The Kayne that was behind just kept going at him.

You can say whatever you want to say and support him, we tried offering him advice and giving him feedback about his playstyle. When we saw a 6 death Teemo with no turret and he just kept pushing and Trundle was snowballing every other lane because of Teemo, it's a problem because every other lane played perfect and was willing to work with him. Teemo wasn't willing to do a single thing. He was inting.

You have no proof for your claims, and you’ll have to forgive everyone as over 90% of these types of claims are fabricated. It does absolutely no good to tell us this stuff on the boards - for one you likely are not remembering it accurately (confirmation bias is OP), for two, we can’t verify the claims nor do anything.

Holy Alistar, he's got a pretty blue bubble─ quick everyone!

All hail the blue bubble!

You can say whatever you want to say. I played it, i lived it and I had to deal with it. It's a problem enough for me to come on the boards to post about it. It's every day, all day, and no point in dealing with it. If that many people are complaining about it than it is a problem. I remember it all. Don't tell me I am lying and making stuff up. I had to play it. You didn't. You are just as bad as the Development team that supports these players.

I am saying that maybe it’s time to stop trying to find someone to blame in every game when, even if they were trolling, it likely didn’t have that big of an effect on your game’s outcome as you think. It is very hard (not impossible, but very hard) for someone to completely throw a game without being easily noticeable.

Stop trying to find someone to blame, stop trying to find something wrong with the teemo.

Yeah, I will say this; I started playing around the end of Season 1; start of Season 2.

I used to be quite a toxic player (I was younger then too...) and would always come up with an excuse as to why it wasn't my fault we lost... I would harass other players, and even insult the enemy players for using a champion that clearly had advantage over my own.

Little piece of advice─ try to work as a team, and instead of ridiculing the others for their mishaps or failures, point out what they're doing right, and encourage them. It usually results in them trying that little bit harder, because it's nice to have someone praise you for the good, than insult and demoralize you for the bad.

Edit: I'm not saying I win more often now, I'm just saying I have an overall better experience playing the game now. It's up to you whether you love or hate the game, but rule one... don't hate the player. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

I wish I could upvote this twice for mention of "confirmation bias". :D

At silver 1, people can just be bad. At any elo, people can just be bad. You can't force people to do what you want them to do. Did you know a lot of people /muteall at the start of the game? It's entirely possible he didn't even read what you said.

As for the "taunting," maybe he was going to gank Fizz's lane and then emoted after? You never know.

inting is NOT not communicating inting is NOT not listening to feedback inting is NOT dying in lane under turret to a fed enemy inting is repeatedly dying intentionally to feed the enemy gold, which you have no proof he did

I imagine you are equally upset when you benefit from it right? Your last 4 ranked wins the enemy had:

Game 1: 3/7 jungle 1/8 supp Game 2: 2/6 jungle 3/7 adc Game 3: 2/10 mid, 0/7 supp Game 4: 2/8 top, 0/5 jun, 1/5 mid, 0/6 supp

Let me guess.... when it happens to you it is obviously int trolling, but when it leads to a win it's because you out played them.

  1. AD/onhit Teemo is completely viable

  2. He wasn't inting

(4. this guy calls him toxic when he didn't even talk in chat

lmao

Moonlytee2 votes

That's a good point, how does one be tox─ I bet it's cause he's playing: Teemo

He just assumed he was thinking mean and hurtful things.

The fact of the matter it wasn't working when he was dead 6 times and lost his turret. He just kept going in and dying from the jungler at that point. He snowballed the lane to the point that no one could com back when Trundle was doing his own thing. It's a problem because Fizz gave him advice to build AP. Teemo walked all the way to his lane to taunt and then go back top lane to feed. It's a problem because you can sit here and tell me and everyone else in the match that he wasn't . . . he was. This player knew what he was doing and he didn't care.

I am all for people playing whatever they want in normals and even ranked. Play how you want to play . . . but if you are losing to the point that it is effecting other people and you are not willing to adapt . . . . you are the problem. He knew what he was doing and he didn't care.

I dont see any trolling here or inting. Thats the build i would go for against Trundle.

Rayjay Redfang3 votes

It's on hit teemo and he was fighting trundle. What do you want AP teemo to do against trundle? AP teemo won't be able to kill trundle, you need more dps which is why on hit would work more. He did need to buy more magic pen and laindries to help break trundle, and his build path wasn't the greatest, but it is not inting. No matter what he built, he wouldn't have been able to fight trundle anyway after a certain point, and once trundle got ahead, there was no chance for him.

People are allowed to build what they wish, so long as they are playing with the intent to win.

Obviously Riot doesn't support these players because they do get punished. Yes, trolling and intentional feeding cades take longer than toxicity, but they get punished.

Players are not required to follow a play style. While Teemo being in team fights may have been nice, perhaps he felt splitting wad the best answer.

Most of the community is ranked in Bronze and Silver. Deal with it. If they don't belong in one, they will drop and vice versa.

A post about Teemo, let's check up on this post and see where this goes.

Riot isn't responsible for people, no more than the clerk at a McDonalds is responsible for who walks into the door. Pull yourself down to ground level and stop with these unrealistic accusations against Riot. Riot just provides the game and the place to play it. They do not control who plays it.

There are people whom walk into the door at McDonalds? [sg-miss-fortune]

If you don't live in rural areas where people do nothing but drive through, yes.

Well, where I live the nearest McDonalds is 3 hours away.. so I'm blessed to see moderately healthy people day-to-day. :) [sg-kiko]

Seems like you are suffering from the decease "I think feeding is the same as inting & trolling".

Here is a cure: THEY AREN'T THE SAME THING !!

The Fizz that was doing very well and ahead in his lane, lost his significant lead because Trundle roamed. Teemo didn't ping

MAP AWARENESS.

Your allies aren't required to ping MIA (if turret is gone, it's likely the other person will roam.)

Because of this one bad player, the bot lane that was ahead is now completely irrelevant because Trundle is roaming.

Well, I hope, Teemo is splitting and your team is warding, else being ahead as bot lane isn't as ahead as it thought it was.

Trundle roaming really isn't scary, he's melee, he has no way to tower dive...

This guy sounds like a post modernist, left leaning sjw who blames everyone else for their own mistakes and losses.
