i was just right into a game, with a heading team playing lucian 9/3/4 score 2 ihibs down. i got a small dc and back to base then reconnect after seconds. my team pushed towards the enemy base and they were right inside there base waiting to fight. i was walking down from mid lane to reach them. telling on chat.(** wait me wait me WAIT ME WAIT ME**) . but they are so ahead an confident to recklessly flash initiate on enemies ignoring that i am the one who has the most damage and gold in team to deal damage beside being the adc.

they ignored and fought . i reached out late.. got 1 kill and died.. and here the drama starts.. _ "trash adc, fking afk , fking useless , idiot you lost this. omg this adc. etc.."._ i could mute all but NO i won't. i still need to communicate with them in order to win the game. enduring all their flame. they go in baron pit immediately and get initiated on by enemies' trap. while my idea was to take infernal drake cuz we had 1 before as a trade for baron cuz it was a risky fight dealing with their hyper carry vayne/lulu who got fed on multiple occasions after leaving bot. none the less they rushed in blindly and died while i was on my way.. reached out late. did damage -being flame tilted- i did a mistake and died... and ofc again "trash adc, fk you, retarded adc look our adc, better adc wins, omg this fker" the whole time none stop.

I got toxic, i got tilted and i flamed back defending myself. i just have one thing to say.

-please if your teammate did a mistake. (specially early) never mind it. early mistakes cant snowball hard on most champions. even if it was 0/3/0 mid or whatever. (sometimes i got 0/2/0 score to legendary 8/2/4 win ) however late game communication and mistakes are fatal. please listen to your teammates. use your chat to communicate. not to flame. know that everything happening is your fault just like anybody else's. put yourself in someone elses place. leave flaming after you are _**SURE **you lost the game and believe there is ALWAYS a chance to _come back relying on your opponent's mistakes. idc if you flame me at end game screen i can mute you still lose nothing. but in game chat is for communicating not for flaming and tilting just like they did to me.. sadly..

I don't know if the tribunal hammer will punish me. but certainly i am reported multiple times because of flaming soraka stealing all my farm and aatrox solo pushing alone intentionally feeding while laughing not giving a f*** cuz it was the end of season 7. and multiple people doing mistakes and flaming me for them or flaming me when i do a mistake.

in the end. i am tilted, toxic (somehow) and starting to hate playing ranked games. not only it is competitively stressful, but flaming and saltiness makes it a more disgusting experience. and dont tell me to mute all. this is not a solution. communication with the team is important. but enduring all this trash talk is really painful whether i did a mistake or not..

There is no tribunal buddy, and use mute all. It might kill communication, but it will keep YOU from getting toxic back and being punished.

Nutshell: Communication is essential to the game (YES!) That's why you have pings, and body language. By that I mean you can tell a players movements by how they do a action. Yes Ranked games are those categories if you see it like that, but I think it's competitively intense. Also this is all your fault for listening to them, you should just listen to yourself and intake the information they gave you. Simple as tat :))))

We need headsets. I absolutely know it won't kill all the problems because some people are just inherently angry at a lot of things, but I think if we had a faster way to communicate plays and stuff of that nature it'd go a lot easier with a lot less flame later on. I can work with a lot of different people and champion choices but if we can't sync our movements or misread each other constantly I can't create a monologue play in chat to save or correct the course. And to some extent if people have to say the words instead of type them you'd have to be a lot braver to say some of the more derogatory things that I see people say.

On a side note it is really hard to take a lot of what people say in stride, it feels inherently like an attack on your own character and it constantly feels like you have to defend yourself from just one bad game or one bad play. I don't know if it's a good or bad idea but after a match is done, and granted this takes a lot of judgment to do, if someone is inherently grieving, or in a lot of cases hateful, I block them. Case in point I had one really good game with a dude who played Tahm as my supp, next game he wanted to play again, even added me as a friend, and we did and the lane phase fell through and I spent a lot of time running through the jg to try to support my team (the communication was all sorts of bad) and the dude starts flaming using racial slurs and unfriends me. So I blocked him. Didn't say a word.

There are too many people who play on here that can't make it 40 minutes if they even for a second feel like a game isn't going perfect, and that's fine. I just choose to not play with those people again. I want to have fun.
