I'm seeing some weird mental gymnastics at play with some of the people I've been playing with.

Has anyone else experienced the phenomenon where someone on your team rages the whole game, blames you and your teammates for things not going well the entire match, then whines to the enemy team (in post match) that we were all being toxic towards them, despite no one taking the bait to blast them for being an asshole?

It's happened 3 times tonight, and it's a really weird strategy of trying to be toxic, then pass the buck.

Using self-inflicted injuries, real or fake, to deceive others and manipulate them into doing what you want.

Pretending to be a victim can be a great way of disguising your own guilt, so this is a common trope on a mystery series.

they are probably trying to troll you by getting you to either insult them back or ask for reports. dont fall for it.

There is some European guy on the forums who believes he can't climb past Silver 4 because all the players are too macho, lol.

He full on believes this. League is filled with weirdos man I would do my best to not even interact with them if you can, will just irritate you.
