Another toxic story

Club Stratus··7 votes·919 views

First off I'm warning readers there will be language in this post that some people may find offensive. I have no intentions of offending anyone and am using the language to keep it authentic.

Had a game with a bard and ezreal bottom that turned into a disaster. I did not watch the lane personally but chat made it sounds like the bard was raging because ezreal was not being as aggressive. Very soon it became apparent what the problem was.

The bard was constantly harassing ezreal calling him a "shiiter". Finally after watching bot for a few minutes the bard was constantly going in on bot lane and expecting to win. The enemy leona would sit in a bush, wait for bard to go after ashe, stun lock bard then proceed to the ezreal who is trying his best to help. After a couple minutes of this bard started roaming.

This is where I tried to explain to him that no matter if he liked ezreal or not him roaming was causing him to be underleveled. Bard was level 9 when everyone was 12 and above. Me trying to give friendly advice turned into me getting harassed the rest of the game. Being called a "shitter" the entire game really suck.. especially because I don't understand what it mean. Sounds like a 10 year olds attempt at offending someone by calling them a .. toilet?

At the end of the game i explained to the other team to report the bard and the reasons why. The bards response was "That's not true at all. Report ezreal. He called me a %%%%%% all game. Spammed it". I waited for everyone to leave and put my report in last. I'm kind of upset that I did not see "an overwhelming majority of players report. This person is probably gonna walk away clean.

...Even if he doesn't he can just make a new account, level it up, and troll again because the game is free but that's neither here nor there.

I really feel that this bard thinks that in no way, shape, or form is he at fault though. Typical internet person feeling like they're the best at everything they do and never at fault. I guess that's what happens when you start handing participation awards out to the losing team.

Bleugh what is this social justice trigger warning bull shit.

If anyone is offended by the word "shitter" they should cancel their internet subscription and prolly uninstall life.exe because anyone this easily offended or upset has a rough time ahead of them

There was a racial slur i posted but I did not realize that it would be blocked out by a chat filter

Still. It's not like you were using the slur. You were quoting it. If someone gets offended by you quoting something, the point still stands.

Nah. If he spammed that, he will definitely get heavily punished.

The ezreal did not spam that. The bard used that as an excuse after game in an attempt to no get reported.

To be fair, Bards do roam. It's kinda their thing.

As true as that statement is there is a difference between roaming to help your team and roaming to hurt your team. The bard specifically stated in game " I cant lane with this ezreal " which in itself is very childish in a game focused on teamwork. He proceeded to go between mid and top lane contributing nothing to either lane. He didnt even stay long enough to gain exp; just a quick gank and leave. I was lvl 14 when everyone else was 12 when bard was level 8.

Agreed wholeheartedly, this sounds like a terrible Bard. I just figured I'd comment on the behavior in general, since I've recently started to main Bard and have had occasional ADCs that don't understand how I work. The Chimes we collect generate a good amount of experience, so ideally, we get kills or force backs in the bot lane and then let our ADC get solo lane experience while we get chime experience.

cmon dont tell me you never had a game like that. he was tilted but he's probably not that bad of a person. he'll get muted soon if he keeps it up dont let it get to you

Tilted? I still don't understand the meaning of this. It sounds like an excuse that you, a teammate, or both of you played poorly and don't want to admit it. Saying "you tilted me" is an attempt to take ALL responsibility off you and throw is somewhere else.

Go look at my last game played. 1-8 wukong 1-8 yasuo 0-8 blitz 2-9 mf 1-2 jax. Game lasted 22 minutes. At about 17-18 minutes in I finally chimed in on my teams argument. The second I said something EVERYTHING got blamed on me and it turned into a jax shaming.

People need to take responsibility for their own actions.
