Flaming makes things worse...

Does anyone not know when u flame someone it makes them play like shit

Not only do u play badly but u also feel like shit and when ur team flames u u feel like well EVEN MORE SHIT

Listen here u egotistical worms -Not everybody can play like a god -No one is a pro -Stop expecting extraordinary things of ur teammates -We don’t always win our lanes like u go against a zed and ur a mage or something zed counters and u flame that person, that doesn’t help..

In conclusion not everyone has good games, I doubt anyone in their whole league hours has not had a single horrible game

So here’s a message to everyone I can think of

Adcs stop flaming ur supports u both work as a team and are in it together Vice versa to u toxic support mains out there too

Laners stop flaming the jungler when they don’t gank they have their reasons not to or simply aren’t strong enough to even gank ur lane

Junglers stop flaming ur laners when they don’t follow up u may have simply ganked at the wrong time

Ppl in champ select if someone picks an “off-meta” pick dont be a dick it’s NORMS and u won’t lose anything if u lose norms

Sore winner teams stop gloating when u win, imagine how shameful u would feel if u lost the next one?

Sore loser teams stop asking everyone to report this one guy on ur team who didn’t do so well

Feel free to vent my dudes and dudettes who have been burned from flaming <3

if you play like shit just because i flamed you then thats your problem.

In my experience, the legitimately nasty flaming - as opposed to the regular grumbling kind - only starts really coming out when the game's outcome is more or less decided. It also comes out when players do particularly stupid stuff, not simply playing badly.

For instance, you pick an early game jungler like Rammus and spend the first 15 minutes farming, while the enemy scaling jungler not only outfarms them but outganks as well.

Or pick an oddball champ and proceed to feed. If you want to play Panth ADC, most players will usually be cool with it. But if you fall behind, expect to get flamed. Not only is it your fault, but you've also screwed your teammates over and wasted their time on a pick that has no hope of scaling.

So yeah, at that point flaming doesn't matter. All the encouragement in the world won't save those games.

Ok? If someone is playing badly then you need to tell them to stop, i dont agree with flaming but if someone is doing something wrong you have to tell them or they will do it over and over.

It's especially bad for those like myself who only play the game casually.

I've been playing for a while now, and I've found that expectations are usually pretty high when anyone comes into a game regardless of play time or skill level.

I would call myself a decent support, but I don't like to play the same role every game. So I choose mid or top and get a bad match-up or just make a mistake that tilts me early and I fall off mid game. This makes me now incapable of assisting in team fights and vulnerable when I try to farm. It's quite frustrating when you're put in a position where you can either charge in with your team and die, (thus giving the enemy team more gold and EXP) or just run away leave your own team one man short. And whichever decision you make, your team threatens to report you like it's a form of punishment for doing poorly.

I enjoy many aspects of this game, but I've considered quitting countless times just for how borderline cruel some members of this community are. Less skilled players have just as much right to play as experienced players. We're all just trying to learn and get better...

Not to mention when you start flaming someone in chat and they start typing back you have 2 ppl on your team who are just arguing w/ each other instead of playing the game. It's not worth even typing to them. If I'm doing bad when I'm not typing imagine how much worse it's gonna be when I'm trying to type to someone instead of just playing the game. Honestly though, I think some ppl would rather just flame you and watch you lose then win the game. They seem to get off on you performing poorly more than they enjoy winning.

That is not true. Sure Obi Wan was better than Anakin, but to say Anakin was "shit", not buying it girlfriend. Let's see your lightsaber moves.

Not only do u play badly

No U.

Not everybody can play like a god

How many though?

No one is a pro

R U SHIRLEY TEMPLES?

Stop expecting extraordinary things of ur teammates

I'll settle for average things like not standing at your tower afk at the start of a game.
