I Lose Two Ranked Games for Every Win...
...because of this toxic community.
Seriously, I've played since Season 1. I'm not the best player, not the worst. In the past I've averaged around a 50% win rate, but this season I'm down to around 30%. Why? Because the community is more toxic than it's ever been. A rage quit used to be a rare happening; now it's basically a given as soon as someone hits 0/4. Every other game I'm fighting against either a 4v5, someone spending the entire game typing, or intentional feeding. Want to know why games are such stomps? Look at the amount of cancer.
Case in point : playing a ranked game last night. Our Zac tells us he's having internet issues and links a terrible ping. A few minutes later he disconnects. What does our Wukong top say? "Fuck this Zac, free kills". He then proceeds to come mid and sit under the enemy tower while Ryze kills him. By the time Zac reconnects three minutes later, Wukong has added two deaths and lost his tower due to inting.
This is a constant. I'm not sure if Riot is now overwhelmed with reports, but the amount of undeniable trolling in ranked is getting out of hand, and that's not even considering the amount of pure toxic chat that's present. If something isn't done about the level of toxicity, Riot will lose all their core players. I can deal with imbalance and poor game design, but literally having no chance because my teams are frequently filled with trolls makes this a pointless game.
P.S. I like how Riot deletes this from gameplay because they know it would get visibility and they have a massive problem with toxicity they choose to ignore. Took 3 minutes for them to delete my post from gameplay.
