League isn't the game it used to be for me

I love League of Legends. I love the champs, I love the map, I love the abilities, I love the feeling of a great play, I love so much about it. The community is the worst thing I've ever experienced in my life. Seriously. Are you kidding me? I've had to dodge three games today because of trolls. People who just want to ruin your experience. They ban your intended pick, just because you intended to play them.

They say they're going top, even though they were selected as mid. They pick Urgot Jungle and take Heal and Barrier, and all they do in champ select is type "huehuehuehuehue" over and over. What the hell. I can't do it anymore. Solo Queue, even duo queue, is just so bad. It's not even fun. I spend more time trying to find a suitable game and/or playing a game where someone just trolls and we lose and it's no fun, than I do playing a fun game with nice people in it. It's an absolute joke.

I can't anymore. Nothing Riot does is helping. It's getting worse. At first it was just blind pick, so I stopped playing blind pick, then it started happening more frequently in normal draft, so I stopped that, now it happens in ranked, 50% of the time. 50% of the games I play are lost because of trolls or afks or whatever. Literally. There is no fun in that. On top of that, when I see a troll coming, I have to dodge or wait for someone else to, but sometimes nobody does, so I'm forced to, and then I can't play for 15 minutes, for an hour, whatever.

Like, you're punishing me for not wanting to play a game that I will definitely lose and have no fun in. Why? Why would you do that to me? And then the community. I've tried everything. I've tried being nice, I've tried ignoring them, I've tried muting everyone, I've tried trolling, I've tried being toxic, I've tried everything imaginable. Nothing works. This community is just cancer. None of them try to work towards making the community better, like, 90% of people just leave the game at the very end anyway, so nobody gets reported.

I can't do this anymore. I'm done. I love playing this game, but it's no fun anymore.

You admit to being part of the problem but are here complaining about said problem?

Makes sense.

I've never dodged EVER and I have a 55% winrate.

So you thinking you WILL LOSE because of teemo jungle is wrong.

If a game stops being fun you should definitely stop playing, or at the least take a break. Im going to assume this is the first game you played if you think this community is the worst. try playing an MMO, or FPS, those in my opinion have a far worse community than league will every have. But you also have to keep in mind that this is one of if not THE most played online game currently. There are possibly millions of people playing at any given moment. of course you are going to get people who troll. Its not different than any other game (especially popular ones) plus the fact that its free and anyone can make an account with little to no time on their hands just increases it tenfold. But it doesnt seem like you are doing your part as well. You claim people leave right after the game is done, and sadly thats the main reason why people can keep doing what they are doing. But you need to also help as well. Riot cannot fix the problem if they dont get reports of it. People seem to think Riot monitors every single match playing so they can find and punish people, when its not true. People need to help report, and it needs to be legitimate at that! Sadly there are people who like to abuse the report system which in turn makes their reports count for less and less, but when they do actually report someone it probably wont count because of their constant abuse of false reports. Far too many times do i see people report for stupid things like First Blood, or picking a champ when that is not the cause of your lost. Actually report people, and leave as detailed as you can in the message part of it! its sad to see you go, but again like i said if its not fun go do something you can find enjoyable!
