If you don’t like or don’t feel like playing league of legends, don’t play the game. Plain and simple. Don’t spend your time doing something you aren’t going to enjoy and be a stick in the mud. You’ll save your team a lot of headaches.

Phieldworker3 votesLol Yas. I’m just tired of getting matches where a couple of bad things happen but we obviously have the better team comp and 6 min in someone says “I don’t care anymore” or says “im afk dumb game” etc.
GatekeeperTDS10 votesWe can bring it up a level - "Don't play if you're going to be a shithead."
Phieldworker3 votesMoney!
Spidii1 votesit's ok they won't get punished you will for saying something lol
Phieldworker1 votesI never talk. Unless it’s encouragement or a game plan. I work with people all day that need some motivation when things get tough and so I know what negative feedback does to people.
Bobs4Hire10 votesUnpopular opinion: don't play League if you aren't prepared to have bad games.
Naalith7 votesYou mean if I play Yasuo and hard shove to the enemy tower, then get ganked and die once I'm not supposed to flame my jungle then afk or sit in the base typing "next"?
DoranShieldOp1 votesI am still confused and unconvinced of what the definition of "bad games" are seems like a mental shield to high elo players who can't accept they make mistakes too so to save their ego's they invented this thing called "bad games" to not feel bad when they feed or lose
and equally an excuse for low elo players who do in fact int feed, and can't stop making the worst decisions possible so they slip out of responsibility to play even remotely decently but okay

ChiefDovahkin5 votesWhen you're losing a ranked game and your mid is like "I don't care, I don't like this game anway"
Spidii2 votesWhen you say "come on man don't be that guy" and you get punished and they don't lol.
ChiefDovahkin1 votesWhen you say "come on man don't be that guy" and you get punished and they don't lol.
I find it hard to believe that after this many seasons of toxicity, the report system still isn't sophisticated enough to consider the situation and how it escalated. The tribunal was better imo.

Rustypug3 votesive got a friend whos got a couple of personal issue and mental problems, if shes having a bad day or a episode she takes breaks from the game and i dont ask her to play, sometimes you just need a break
Phieldworker1 votesThat is so true. Sometimes we just need to take a break. I’m not perfect and so sometimes I need to not play rank and I don’t. I’ll go into a norm game. Thanks for sharinf
Clockwork Mouse1 votesI actually got hit by this one time. I wanted to play teemo, but someone else picked him before me. I just couldn't get into the game after that. And rather be stuck in a 20-30 min game i just closed up and left. Felt pretty bad about doing it the next morning, saw my team lasted 30 mins in a 4v5
Phieldworker2 votesI’ve gotten as far as champ select with this feeling and then I just dodge. I don’t want to force my team into a bad time with me and I had more fun going out and playing baseball with friends instead.
Clockwork Mouse1 votesYeah it took me until I was laning to realize i felt that way. If I thought about it sooner i'd have dodged
Spidii1 votesthat's when you suck it up because that's the decent human thing to then play it out because it's not all about you and then get off the game.
Metal Janna1 votesSuper agreed. People want to quit just because Kayle fed her laner... Even though this is Ranked and our team has two hypercarries counting Kayle. Like you realize we win almost automatically if you just keep your cool and stall right? Feeding lane and then popping off anyway is kind of Kayle's thing!

Xidphel5 votesWho pissed in your cornflakes?
DoranShieldOp1 voteswell I don't like the way people phrase these kind of posts in an authoritative tone either but that doesn't mean we should dismiss his post as a possible truth
Phieldworker1 votesfirst off this isn’t a bashing post. It’s a simple “take a moment and breathe and think “do I want to play league right now?”
Second it’s just words. If you don’t like it or don’t agree that’s fine.
Mathgodpi1 votesWhat if I'm in the mood for a nice competitive game of League, but not in the mood for one-sided stomps (which is the only type of game the matchmaker puts me in)?
5StackUltOneShot1 votesI love when Im in a match and my M7 Riven dies once and decides to run it down because 'idc about this match their jungle is better'. IF YOU DONT CARE WHY ARE YOU PLAYING RANKED OR EVEN PLAYING TO BEGIN WTIH.
Also, if anyone does this look at their match history, I guarantee they've been playing for 5 hours in a row +
FullmuteAll play1 votesI know ,but the issue is I have no idea what to play. There are no other game I know how to play. And I don't want to learn so much.
Just showing you other side of coin.
schoob1 votesI agree with your point so much but honestly I can't have fun on any other multiplayer game so i'm stuck on LoL atm.
DoranShieldOp1 voteshots I would also try ow if I could afford it
Spidii1 votesoverwatch has a much better community and much better punishment system
PurpleKingCrazy1 votesYea, I done it a couple times before. I got so toxic man it wasn't good for my health.
PaladinNO1 votesI know myself well enough not to be playing a game with others when I'm not in the mood. Whether it be too many defeats in a row, trolls or flamers, I can handle a few games with any or all of that - after that, I play something else.
I find Doom with Godmode and a gatling gun to be great for stress relief. Same with mass-chopping heads off of Zombies in Dying Light (a trainer made that game playable at all), as I've recently discovered.
SanKakU1 votesNGL I feel like the streaming community is very competitive and many streamers AFAICT will stream when they're not in the mood to play the game or even just not in the mood to stream. I guess the grind gets to people and they feel like they have to grind even if it means they will be making the game unfair for 9 other players since they are worn out or whatever.
Games are for fun, it's not a job. You shouldn't work yourself to the bone over a game. But some people do it anyway.
DoranShieldOp1 votesbro I stopped doing that a long while ago but sometimes you are just so desperate to level up
DrippyBrownHole1 votesGiven that the boards exist almost entirely of complaints, they wouldn't exist unless people played when they didn't really want to.
No one wants to play League.
Phieldworker1 votesI like it and love playing it. And when I don’t feel like playing I play other games or do other things for a hobby.
EyesOfTheFox1 votesThis should hold true for anything in life. If you aren't in the mood, or aren't feeling it, it's ok to not do it/find something different to do.
Nerull1 votesproblem isn't starting a game when I don't want to play. Its getting 5 minutes in and having two lanes already with 2 deaths each.
hotarse1 votesCut off the last 8 words in your title and you've got it right.
SoIoQ Challenger1 votesSame thing goes for if you are tilted cause last game was crap, maybe chill for a while before you queue? I mean, if not because you should spare the people you play with, spare yourself cause you play worse when tilted
Kyaza1 votesman you have no clue how many times ive gotten queue to pop only to decline as i realize I dont feel in the right headspace
hellyeaimondrugs1 votesif the game wasnt dogshit plp would care about it
