I think I have a problem with my mindset. Whenever I think I want to play ranked or normals or League as a whole, something tells me to not queue, to not play the game, I allways start up the launcher and stare at it for 5 minutes untill I turn it off. I want to play League and be as passionate about it as I was before a year or two.
I´ll be glad if someone responds, or gives me an advice. Thanks
Jamaree5 votesDon't force yourself, if you aren't having fun, just stop playing and come back later. It is a video game after all and you aren't losing anything by not playing it.
Moonlytee4 votesBest advice? Play with fun people. [slayer-jinx-catface]
FLOL game suck2 votesGood idea, but that is not an option when it comes to soloQ.
Late For Tea4 votesI often find myself in a similar situation, starting up a Q but cancelling it a minute in, because I no longer feel like playing. I can find great joy in non-standard game modes though, such as ARAM or the rotating modes. It lets you play league without the every day problems. Its a nice change of pace and a bit more relaxing. Playing with premades works wonders too, I find a lot more joy in Q'ing up with friends than playing solo.
Changing the role you play may help you as well. I recently switched from toplane to support, and overall it has been a great experience. The play style is very different; and as I'm relatively new to and still bad at the role, I feel motivated to improve and try new champions.
That said there's nothing wrong with taking breaks. I have been playing since S2 but it hardly feels that way, because of the long breaks I took. If you're tired of LoL, just stop playing for a few months and come back refreshed. Even taking a few days off to play some other games can probably already do some good!
FragøsaWr2 votesThats a great idea! I would definitelly try that, and thank you for taking your time to write this nice reply.
Ramyskie2 votesDon't play this game, I am addicted to this game and sadly gets annoyed everyday and keeps going thinking it will get better, don't repeat my path.
FLOL game suck2 votesYour just like me, you enjoy the game, you enjoy the champions, but you hate what the playerbase has become. The amount of stupid, incompetent people playing makes you not want to play games. Hard to enjoy a game where every game gets you stressed, but you just keep coming back for more. That's my situation anyway...
tobequitefrank1 votesyup
FragøsaWr1 votesThe toxicity of my teammates or enemies doesnt matter to me unless they are attacking me directly or they are being really offensive. One thing that gets me stressed or pissed while playing League, is the non-existent knowledge of my team, but that doesnt happen too often, I have a games when my team is full of LCS players, and then the games where I dont see my jungler for 10 minutes.. :D
Anyways, thank you for your time and GL in your future games.
FLOL game suck1 votesOfcourse it does, lets say your ADC got angry that his support didnt use exhaust in a recent 2 v 2 bot lane and died. Got angry and just ran it down mid, and went 0/10 10 mins into the game? What if this is a ranked game where u were hoping to climb and enjoy urself and compete with other players? Honestly no one, I mean no1 regardless of how much of an angel you think you are, will ever be happy about experiencing that.
The non-existant knowledge of your team stems from a massive player base, (27 million people) where probably only 5 million people actually understand the games core, itemization,teamwork, objective control, team compositions and rotations.
No one enjoys losing, but the problem is that too many people that play league of legends(especially the casual players) don't take the time to ask themselves stuff like "what did I do wrong? what could I have done better? Could I of changed my build/positoning?". Most people play league of legends on autopilot, which is fine if you are playing casually. The problem is what they do these kinds of things in ranked. EX 1st timing a champion their just bought in a ranked game.
tobequitefrank2 votesbro this is the exact same issue I have. lol its happening right now. I've got league open I que for norm, but then anxiety about wasting 30 minutes with people running around literally not knowing what to do trolling and shit makes me come out of que and then it just sits there. this happens every time I attempt to play.
FragøsaWr1 votesYup, the feeling of "wasting" the time to just lose and/or get flamed on is a bit stressful, and I feel the same as you do about this situation..
Thank you for kind response!
tobequitefrank1 votesno worries g, you're very welcome. lol this games going to shit. or at least the new players in it.
Valheeru1 votescompetitive gameplay focus removed the fun element of this game
cinderhurst1 votesI just started League this year and I rlly enjoy it, I don’t play a lot of ranked so it’s all the fun and none the pressure.
xSightlessx1 votesthat sounds like your are either burned out on league and should take a good break from it for a bit. Or a symptom of depression.
RosaElia1 votesI feel the same way too. There's just so many toxic people in the game that it loses it's appeal. Even in norms or even aram there's always that one guy that would decide to be toxic and ruin the game experience. Kind of makes it hard to learn new champions when you get flamed every game for not doing well in a normal game.
Telephone Booth1 votesYeah, you're sick of it. Happens with any game. I do the same thing sometimes. Like it's just a routine to turn on league... then I'll just sit there contemplating, going into the different game modes but not hitting find match. Just deciding what I want to play.. nothing sounds particularly fun, so I just exit out and play something else. Once you've been gaming for 20 years or so, you'll realize it's just a natural process where a hobby gets stale.
xXRemoveKebabXx1 votesMan you should thank God about this.You shouldn't try to play this game.Get in your hands and start doing something useful that also is fun for you.If your life is bad make it better,if not and it's good then make it even better.Some people won't understand this but you are blessed.I'm the opposite -- I don't want to play the damn game but whenever someone invites me I'm in for a game even if I don't feel like playing at all and knowing that I can do something better.If only I was lucky as you are..[slayer-jinx-catface]
