I think that this is a really big problem with league. I am new to this game and am only level 13. I like Nunu, hes fun and can be played a lot of places. Anyway, so I hit level 13 and wanted to try out klepto Nunu. I thought that it might be good because you w in aa and then run away or e and then aa when rooted. I wanted to play it top but I got filled to the jungle position. I mean i thought it was gonna be fine and all because I do play him jungle. So in Pre-Game chat (sorry i do not know how to get chat logs) I said i wanted to try a new rune, and everyone was ok with it. When we logged on everyone immediately started flaming me for trying klepto. Everything was fine until bot lane started getting heated. Bot lane picked a Kai'sa Taric into Draven Gragas. They started flaming that Gragas supp was stupid and that i should come gank. I was saying that Kai'sa needs time to do damage and Draven doesnt, but they werent listening. They were pushed up to turret and then they dove them and killed Kai'sa for first blood. She started yelling at me for not ganking a no cc no damage lane, which I did not think was true. I tried to gank after and they just ran from me, so I stopped trying. Anyway, throughout the game I was trying to defend myself against this Kai'sa about my "toxic feeding". Taric joined in too, and then it moved to all chat. Soon 7 people were yelling at me in all chat. I muted them but I knew they were all still doing it. I was ganking top and mid and counterganking but the laning phase was over fast when Draven got first tower. Anyway, the game went on and on. I stole baron but still got flamed for it. Soon it was a base race as me and a friendly Ryze. I had 6k hp and was pretty dang tanky. Kai'sa had picked up nearly a full build as was finally doing damage. All the while though, every free second, they were flaming me. Asking about my rank and such. I kept saying i was new and level 13 but they didnt care. We won because Me and Ryze fended off a Kayn Draven and inting Sion from our base. Afterward, I got a A+ and I think Kai'sa got an A-. She was asking about my rank again and so was everyone else. I was saying again that i was level 13. They said that "no, you have been playing for years, but your probably still bronze" and such. Kai'sa was bragging that her other account was plat. I reported them all but still, I mean that was a fine game for me. I did fine, but it was one of the worst games Ive ever played. They were just so toxic and condescending it was really bad game overall. Maybe Rito could find a way to fix this? like putting new players and multiple account players separate? Idk I just dislike the toxicity toward new players.

Welcome to League, home of the biggest dickheads of the seven seas. Do yourself a favor and quit before you get addicted. It will only get worse.

That's why I only play ARAM. A lot of people playing normal get upset like they are playing ranked. Of course people are expected to try, but if someone makes a mistake, all of the sudden there is someone at their throats saying what an awful player they are and how much of a loser they are and how their mom did whatever last night.

ARAM has less of that, but if it does happen, you can rest assured it is someone that plays ranked. (Also a lot of time people don't seem to understand that in ARAM not everyone always gets a champion they are good at.. which is strange.)

Anyway my recommendation is ARAM. Come join us. :)

Mute/ignore verbally toxic players,and you'll have a better time

100% agree with SkittleJuice! If you love league and aren't up to the pressures and possible flaming that comes from playing normal's or ranked then ARAM is the best place to be. Granted, as SkittleJuice previously stated, there are still toxic players in ARAM's as there are toxic people in all walks of life. But once you learn to utilize the ignore/mute buttons it helps you create your own non-toxic world when playing. Bottom line is don't give those people who just want to tear you down the time of day and go out there and be the best you can be and don't be afraid to try different champs, ARAM is the perfect place to find that champ that synergizes with your play style while having some no pressure fun. One last thing i want to mention is also be open to constructive criticism about certain builds or ways to position in fights etc., some players genuinely wanna help but can seem like they're simply pointing out your mistakes. Hope your league experience from here on out is a solid one filled with more joy and frustration then confusion and despondency and remember it's a competitive game and its never fun to lose but learning to adapt in any given situation is one of the cornerstones to becoming a better league player. Cheers mate![katarina-love]

Edit: One last thing if you are still interested in tackling the summoners rift and looking for that full blown league experience i would suggest to you to start watching some high level streamers of league of legends; specifically the ones that will talk through their thought process during a game. it will allow to see certain champs played to almost peak performances as to what they can do and it'll give you the chance to watch game flow and how the map is played to help you better understand your place on the rift.

league is toxic, mute all, DO NOT argue with toxic people, it will only degrade your honor and get you into trouble. Just mute all and do your own thing.

I don't hate you.... Here, take some love.[zombie-nunu-hearts]

People don't hate you because your new, people hate you because the league community is the most toxic one there is and they will hate you for the rest of the time you play

Klepto in jungle? Why?

Telephone Booth10/17/2018, 12:19:36 AM1 votes

Just some tips; definitely mute people like that. Riot bans people for toxicity, and it doesn't matter who started it... So NEVER argue with players. Just to be safe. Even when they're accusing you of things you know to be false, just let it go. Treat them like toxic-bots trying to bait you into arguments. The second you take the bait, you lose. It's like it's own league mini game. Just report them afterwards and don't take any of it personally.. they would do it to anyone. It has nothing to do with you, and everything to do with their petty egos.
