I've actually become insanely toxic recently.

After the past 2-3 days of being able to do anything no matter how well I do or how bad the enemy team does I can't help but get insanely tilted really easily.

I know i'm not the best player ever, nor do I act like it. In my games I often point out my mistakes and say what I did wrong as well as ask for help when I know i'm not good in a certain situation. Normally I use to be insanely chill and not let anything bother me.

A large portion of the problem is how horrible of a state this game is in right now. To the point where unless you're the adc or jngler (for the first 10 minutes) nothing you do feels like it has any impact.

5/0 in your lane. Soon to be 5/5 if your bot lane lost. 9/0/3 mid. Soon to be 9/10/3 if your lane lost. etc. etc.

Recently I just lost a game as malphite, my bot lane, despite me telling them to stop typing. Died to an invade early on letting the enemy pantheon come to lane with a long sword and corrupting potion. Shortly after our jng mundo ignores my pings and the ward placed causing him to die to evelynn and panth and panth now has doubles.

After that there was nothing I could do but die. Couldn't farm, couldn't stay above 30% hp, couldn't fight back. Can't even sit under tower. That feeling of hopelessness and that you're now just waiting for the 15 minute mark because you're completely unable to do anything because 1 kill decides the lane completely with the way this game is right now

I've become very toxic myself as well this season. I believe there are two reasons why:

The amount of flamers and AFKers and generally people being far better or far worse in the same bracket makes it so that you can't have a fun gaming experience, leading you to resort to become toxic yourself. You either have someone flame you constantly, and after a point, you just lash out, or you have a troll, eventually you lash out, or the matchmaking is bad to the point that games don't feel fair and you just show it in chat.
How much any small mistake can cost you. In prior seasons, you could make a mistake and it would be ok. Nothing really would happen. Now, ANY LITTLE MISTAKE will probably generate a huge snowbally advantage. You missed your smite on Scuttle? 1 level behind. You missed 2 cannon minions? Half a kill behind. You got hit by Morg Q? Dead. All these things make it so that you get tilted every time someone makes a mistake, because you know that that little mistake will probably lead to a very hard game from there on.

Also, there seems to be a trend about bad players. Since bad players decide the game, at the point you identify who's the bad player, if he's on your team, then the tilt comes. Seeing any little mistake reassures you about having the bad player on your team, which means that it will be a loss in the end.

im having the same problem but for other reasons, i got counterpicked in top, so i said, ey, lets ask for a early gank so i can at least fight with some advantage, being irelia its not hard to think about it as a good idea, still, seems like asking in a chill and relaxed manner dont work anymore in this game, but well, i play defensive in top, hugging my tower and waiting for the gank, when we were lvl 6 , urgot did me undertower,and we know what a urgot with 1 kill can do, the most fun part of it is when he came after i had to back because i just evaded a ult that will surely kill me, undertower again, dying to urgot and giving him the 2 0 , after 4 or 5 games like that, and a shit of a day i just snapped on,i question the nocturne and he answer, you should farm not try to fight, even after that i try to play right but as irelia i cant do shit vs a feed urgot,so i decided that this was lost time, because enemy bot was overfeed and our mid wasnt wining also, our comp had only me as late game champ so in general was a lose game, i did what he said, and farm, full farm , not even caring if i die, obviously i get reported for inting, and now i get my first "report punishment" this is the second time i actually act like this, and i deserve the punisment for inting, the fun part is that i actually died only 2 times more than the bot, i mean sup and adc, the 2 with 11 deaths and i with 13 , i understand than being bad doesnt deserve a report, but IS that weird that someone just snap after this happening again and again? pd: the first time that i inted was as a sup, when i was 1 2 8 and a idiot ask me to stop inting, he was 0 4 so i simply didnt manage to take it asked him to apologice for saying that or i will int for real, he didnt so i inted i deserved a report in that two places, and im going to take my punishment and think about it, the two of them were normal plays , but still i should not int even when angry, this game is making me toxic, and i dont like it

Its kinda hard not to be toxic, when you sometimes feel like the system is against you.

For example doesn't matter if I'm losing or winning I'm usually chill, but then when i reach promos, the next 10 games i get the worst people of the league community in my team, while the enemy gets a dream team of great players, and i not only lose my promos i get demoted. And no matter how good i play or what i do, we always get destroyed and every time like a curse in these losing streaks, the first 2 -4 games i nearly carry, the next few I do ok, and after that all hell breaks lose and i become the most toxic and feeding player in the world.

And its always like this, every since i started playing in like season 2, 10 game win streak, a few games here and there, and then a 10 - 20 game losing streak, its beyond frustrating, it literally ruins my day.

I find that people become toxic when they feel like they've hit a wall in their progression and don't know what to do to move higher, so they end up blaming others instead of looking for opportunities to learn.

Maybe get yourself a coach (there are alot of free ones out there) and see what they can do to help.

i'm toxic 24/7 but I've been more toxic too and there is nothing you can do when the monkeys on your team feed its always you get the boosted animals who run into the enemy team going 0/20 but the other team has faker and Jesus on their team make godlike plays and you team is scratching their asses in the corner waiting for faker to kick them right back to bronze and all you can do is watch as you try to do something anything but your efforts are in vain you are no match for the fed Illaoi Fizz Quinn Yasuo Blitzcrank

If you are 9/0 midlaner that doesn't use that advantage to roam and gang top and bot, if you loose, it is partially your fault. If you are top laner that is 5/0 and doesn't push into second turret with Herald, if you loose, it is partially your fault.

Stopped blaming others, unless your not lane goes 0/5 each in first 5 minutes of match, there is a lot both mid and top can do.

and then everyone in the Anivia main's discord tells me its my fault for trying to fight the fed bot lane...

Excuse me for getting tower dove from outa no where. Guess I should give up all my towers >:(

Its stupid. Going 2/0 in lanes means nothing if the enemy Ezreal and Soraka get to be 8/0 in 15 minutes.

you're not the only one... I've gotten quite toxic too after all these changes, meta-shifts, and the overload of childish behavior of people who just want to ruin your game without you being able to do ANYTHING against it. You wanna tell your oppinion on that asshole? Bad for you, guess we have to chatrestrict or even ban you :^).

and these jungle changes are f-ing toxic too Kindred item 3070

Sorry to hear about your struggle.

Sounds like you're a top main? Me too.

I used to be a big tilter like you're saying. Skipped league all through season 7 and most of 8 and came back. In-between I found that in the end it's just a game.

Granted I haven't played ranked as I am wary of what it brings out in people.

It sounds like you're having issues with your role on top of your team. I'm not here to scrutinize, but top does have a very important role in the late-early game.

You need to be a major enough threat in pushing and domination that the jungler respects your power. Keeping the jungle away from bot is a much appreciated thing, as it comes down to a fair (in theory) fight in bot.

I can't ask you to ask your bot to abuse the enemy team sending one or two extra bodies to deal with the threat you're pushing out, but it's a learning process all around. If the planets align your jungle will gank bot without a contest from theirs.

I know this probably isn't the reply you were expecting, but fret not, and remember: it's one of hundreds of matches, there will be more.

Yeah I've been feeling similarly frustrated. This patch games feel SO snowbally. I think that most of the games I've played this week have been stomps one way or the other, even worse than usual. Losses feel incredibly dis-empowering and wins are just empty. Like, wow we stomped them haha, great. And then I'm just wishing I had an even match for once.

Dakkimchi5/23/2018, 1:44:02 AM1 votes

Honestly you just need a break fam. Stay off the game for few days to a week and see if it gets any better.

It's your problem not the state of the game

Demon King Maou5/22/2018, 12:45:47 AM1 votes

I know how you feel I got extremely unlucky in my placements and kept getting

Intentional feeders or
Keyboard warriors

While the enemy team had

People that actually focused on the game instead of "OMG" every 2 secs

I am partially at fault for trying to do placements as a support where i couldn't have a super high impact on the game so i am rectifying it right now.

Its hard not to snap and call them out but at the same time i don't want an account that i've spent an outrageous $ on banned I've been here since late 2014 and i've gradually became more and more toxic from Early s7 - s8 Its hard and its becoming nearly impossible to follow the guidelines..

i constantly have to fill adc as of late, i blame league design and how bursty champs have become to where theres no room for outplay. also the reason why games are constantly surrendered too

I understand your pain, friend. I find myself being toxic as well. And then I feel like shit because I know I'm not good at this game and there have been so many games where I sucked and my team didn't harass me.

I try my hardest to not be that way.

Lmao yall are trolling. play tryndamere/jax learn to split push there is never a point where ur just useless or play fiddlesticks, trust if you go 5-0 as fiddlesticks you are not going to be 5/5 if ur bot lost and have no chance to come back.
