GG "EZ" = Unsportsmanlike

Moogle King·10/31/2016, 6:00:19 PM·24 votes·2,412 views

I know that this post is going to be highly unpopular, because the majority of you players are guilty of saying that phrase "gg ez", "ez", "ez pz". First off, if you plan on commenting "sounds like a personal problem" or some irrelevant garbage like that, then gtfo. I make a valid claim and if you can't make a valid response as to why I'm wrong then don't bother.

Saying "good game, easy" is an oxymoron for sportsmanlike qualities. I'll report my own team, or the other team regardless. Not because I'm uptight, but because it's such douchey thing to say. Especially winning after a 60-70 minute game; what was so "easy"? The game took long so obviously both teams were really close. But lets say you beat down the Nexus in under 20 minutes. The other team obviously knows they got demolished, and saying "easy" is like rubbing dirt in the wound. Instead of being a douche, just say "gg wp" or something along those lines. To me that seems far more sportsman like knowing that you did better, but still encouraging the other team.

I would encourage all summoners to stop saying "gg ez", and just say "gg wp".

All those who say "GG EZ" also look stupid because Ezreal is not in every game.

It's a punishable offense. You won't get banned instantly, but it can contribute to it

the real question is why is it always the guy getting carried the one saying "ez"

Letting gg ez get in your head is reason #12560 that you're still in Bronze.

I feel that Riot should take a page out of Blizzard's book and replace the "GG EZ" with snarky comments.

If you beat someone in a chess tournament and said to his face, "that was an easy win," would you consider that acceptable behavior?

Most people say "no, that is not acceptable behavior". It is the same in LoL; saying "ez" at the end is the same as the preceeding example, and therefore falls under "unsportsmanlike behavior".

I don't know why people think behind hidden behind the internet makes it ok to be rude to other people.

I agree. I'd even go so far as to say a lot of "gg"'s are toxic too. Nothing was good about the game where my team got a total of 12 kills vs. 56 deaths. It's not fun to say this at the end of the game in most cases. If it really was a good game. Fine. But I don't actually think most games fall into this category.

Repetitive inflammatory behavior is reviewed and legit reports would be looked over but I don't know if it's enough in and of itself to get a punishment.

Riot should totally do what Blizzard did in Overwatch (at least for the PTR, I'm not sure if it actually hit live).

But what if I wanna say GG EZ (Not saying I do, I mute everyone in all my games), why I need to be hindered of it, why I don't have right to say what I feel, isn't that taking my freedom of speech?

I have been saying ggez, ezpz, zzzzzzzzzzzz, was that coop vs ai? Etc before it was cool. Absolutely no punishment ever. Stop spreading misinformation about what is punishable and what isn't.

And before you say "well maybe you never got reported for it". I have been told by countless cucks that they were reporting me for it. Nothing has happened and won't lol

Gg ez = get good easy or git gud ezay for the cringe

CrazyBear198711/1/2016, 6:12:56 AM1 votes

sometimes i don't even say GG, cause the losing team doesn't appreciate it either, a WP is good enough, saying GG might not be well received.

Was playing on my smurf that doesn't even have level 30 or full runes yet. Enemy team had a gold ranked riven that got fed from a player that is still learning how to play. Mid laner on my team was also afk. Enemy riven says "gg ez" feelsbadman i hate riven players

Chances are if they're saying it after a 70 minute game, they're joking and you really need to get over yourself.
