idk but from my personal experience people who rank higher are always always dickheads even if they like to pretend they are not, they are most likely vile humans, try to argue with someone whos much higher rank than you enough and the way they'll react to being annoyed is disgusting sometimes, it's like you gain skills and climb but you lose your humanity for whatever reason seriously talking to these people can make you feel worthless especially if you are a sensitive person

No. I don't think better players are necessarily more toxic. It exists up and down the ladder. The only thing I've found to be correlated with toxicity are the letters EUW. But others observations may vary.

People aren't toxic for no reason; toxicity is usually provoked by playing badly/inting/griefing/trolling/afking etc,. If these things diminish the higher the rank, then there's less reason to be toxic, thus your less toxic the higher the elo

Usually it's something like this: Low elo (iron-silver): with delusion of that they deserve diamond or plat and always blame the team for everything and more or less refuse to take an advice because they don't want to feel dumb.

High elo: arrogant fucktards who are full of themselves usually and if things don't go their way, they int or afk. Hell, afk and inting is worse than low elo. Plat is the utopia of such behaviour and I hate that elo with a passion.

On other words? All elo has toxicity and its levels. I mean masters to challengers have to deal with win trading while we don't.

"They are most likely vile humans..." jesus man. Watch some foggedftw2, he's damn good and doesnt really talk shit. Sirhcez is also a pretty high ranked chill player. Did you try arguing balance with a diamond and they pulled their elitism card or something? You got a chip on your shoulder my dude. Higher ranked players generally know balance better than low ranked players. As a silver, I pretty much automatically concede in an arguement over balance and mechanics if the other person is diamond+. It just makes sense that they would have a better understanding than me. As far as toxicity in general, I wouldnt know, as I've never climbed beyond silver 1.

Had a ranked game today where a ryze tilted in lane, was 1/15 at one point, never grouped, solo pushed side lanes till he died. Not 1 word of flame to him, team just said fuckit and played around his tilt. Won. It felt great. (high diamond, FWIW)

Guys like tarzaned get a lot of rep for high elo shit, but there's tons of nice people like olleh and just neutrals.

I wouldn't necessarily say that as everyone is different and toxicity exists at all levels of play. Perhaps you're just experiencing bad luck, which in that case try taking a break from SR or whatever other mode is causing you frustration and play something else.

People in bronze are most likely the most toxic because when they're doing bad they don't understand why and instead blame the team for it. The higher you get the more likely you are to understand mistakes
