A word to people flaming you for being bad.

From my game yesterday;

"I'm sorry I'm not better than my enemy laner. I'm sorry that my cs doesn't meet your standard. I'm sorry that I can't kite as you wish yet, or know how to ward and position most effectively.

I'm only silver And for all you need to know, I am trying to win this game just as much as you do. But your flaming and insulation doesn't make me play better. I don't know what happened in your life to think this is a way to motivate people. But it doesn't. So if you want to win, don't treat me as an enemy, because we're on the same side."

I know it's a little venty, but it keeps being so horribly annoying when your midlane flames the botlane or jungle to infinity. And yes, while muting is an option, it doesn't solve the problem.

Yesterday we had a game where I had a Lucian + Morgana completely stomping botlane, no matter what we tried, no matter how ahead I was on kill participation, he was just way better. The midlane brand and Jax jungle then made it their job to flame the hell out of me because I was dying so much.

The game before I was losing hard against a Lucian and Blitz crank botlane, and a nunu camping bot. I tried to farm to pull my way to late game, but their dive and pull potential/skill was just too big to play against. The midlane Annie was spamming "report my team" I'm all chat the entire game.

Luckily through hard work and dedication, I pulled through and bought the items I needed, and recovered from the head start they head, eventually ending up winning both games.

Proving a flamer wrong has never felt more satisfying than carrying the hell out of a game people complained about you throwing.

I feel like it should motivate you to play better, if it doesn't then /mute works.

maybe instead of complaining about people flaming you, improve cs, warding, and dont 1v1 people who have already beat you in a 1v1 before. Dont have that mindset and actually try to improve if you want to climb

Everything you've written there can be considered passive-aggressive and, thus, bannable in-game.

Top tip about that first game, i've never met a brand who isnt a flaming %%%%fuck

this is ironic because brand is a FLAMING character and every fucking player who i've met who mains him flames.

A word to people under-performing in their role.

I get it. I really do. We all have bad games. Sometimes we fail. Sometimes we roam into an enemy-infested bush and die. Sometimes we tunnel too hard and don't see the map. I know this particular game doesn't define you as a player. We don't ask for perfection.

But please, if you die early: Don't spam gg or ff. Don't make excuses. Don't flame your enemies. Don't make enemies of your allies. Don't try and get some divine redemption by fighting the enemies that are stronger than you. Don't afk push and let the enemies collapse and farm you. Don't refuse to fight when the team deems it necessary.

When you start to fail, let the rest of the team hold your slack. Become as light as a feather to carry. Farm under turret. Don't give your enemies the satisfaction of farming you. Get your satisfaction from ruining the enemies game. Make their game the most boring match ever by clearing waves under turret, And pressuring their turret when they're roaming.

You are not worthless. Buy wards. Go tanky. Focus on survival and objectives. At full build, your champion will do its job Regardless of how you performed early game.

Personally I just look up a game where they fed on op.gg, mention it and their performance, then mute them. Helps me kind of get rid of any of the tilt that flamer may have made me feel then muting them prevents it from tilting anymore.
