"The game is way less toxic than it used to be."

Really? Because I have yet to play a single game where someone didn't flame or say "gg ez" in all chat. I'm not even going to go into the dreadful new player experience because this veteran one is getting extremely tired of the toxicity.

In before "but wuz dere an Ezreal in teh game?"

You need to grow up. People are such babies today. If you can't take "gg ez", then I can't imagine how you will handle life....

well "gg ez" it´s kind of annoying, but I don´t think he is only talking about that. I also don´t get a lot of games where people are nice... most of the times I get people who want to troll, or rage when they start to lose, or like to say mean things to the others, because they can.

The annoying thing about this, is that THIS IS A GAME. It is not suppose to be a place to get bullied or insulted because of mistakes or ignorance.

Life is much worse, but, like I said, League is a game, not real life, not real war.

And it´s not about being a baby xD lol, it´s about the lack of "grown up" behavior and respect for the others that players in League have. Or do you consider "grown up" to start insulting because someone die once, or get ganked, or had a bad day -.-

Yea you ain't the only one. And it feels like some people have started scripting to get boxes.

Not saying that because they're good. But because we stomped them and 5 minutes in they're LCS material...

Hitting everything.

But the thing that betrays them are the instant flashes from ults. The fact that they use multiple things instantly. Like sona ults them so it's like an instant qss w q e gets kill. Walk away all within a second.. instantly.

Then they hit space bar and they suck again.

I know how to read and spot them. They're rare but sense crates... yea..

It's like you wouldn't be here in this elo.. with 1000 wins... if you play like that legit.

Instant sidesteps as soon as you use the ability. And then they use an ability as soon as you right click somewhere..

Total bs and obvious.

I am agreeing to the toxicity and mentioning something else I see a lot more common these day.

May seem strange, but I was smurfing for two weeks, I met a platinum smurf.

We played together on our low leveled accounts. A bronze and a plat, against new people, other smurfs, and scripters.

He taught me a few things, like front line, orb walking, when to go in and trade..

Front line - furthest minion in lane, if people pass this we have minion advantage and can enguage.

Orb walking - I bound my attack move click to A but it wasn't working for me, So I use spacebar instead. So If Im an ADC and I'm running from a melee I press Space bar and then right click to orb walk away from him..

And I learned that if certain champions use certain abilities that I can go in on them because they have nothing to trade with.. Say Annie (Pre 6) has stun up... but she uses her Q putting it on cooldown and losing her stun... I can then trade her for heavy damage punishing her for giving up that stun and Q..


Little things I learned I never would have if i never made a smurf to meet him... xD


Back on track, but in low levels people are scripting to level accounts to 30 to be able to sell them off to people who pay for them.

My friend can see it before I do, but I can see the auto dodge script pretty well. **It's perhaps the easiest one to see.... ** First tiem they do it, it's suspect.. but after... yea...

Before I knew about scripting, but I didn't care because I'm bronze. Ive played games against a diamond before... they're good... and you can tell they are...

but there are some people scripting for boxes/hextec crates. (Thankfully we're not playing ranked.) And thankfully they're very rare.. but you do stumble across one every now and then..

People aren't just spectators. They contribute to the tone of every game they play. I have no idea if there is actually less toxicity than their used to be, but I damn sure have experienced significantly less over the last 2 years than the previous 4. The punishment systems did progress a lot during that time, but also I changed. I became less hypercritical, less angry towards my team, and more teamwork oriented. And in a very short time, I went from almost quitting because it wasn't worth playing knowing that almost every game I was going to play was just going to be full of toxic players who are not only going to make the game miserable, but also make us lose to almost never seeing toxic players.

To be completely honest, I notice it A LOT around spring break, winter break, summer vacation . . . . I think it varies between when the kids have off. I just had one of my most toxic games with someone in MONTHS. The last time I had a toxic game with someone to this level was in November. You just need to take a mental breather or just leave the game for a few months. You cannot control the behavior of a stupid imbecile that is griefing and getting a rise out of players for no reason at all. You cannot control it . . . but Riot can . . . . and they have yet to really do anything about it.
