Do Flaming, Blaming, and Being Toxic Help People to Win Games?
(This is my secondary account to cover everyone's identity)
Short story: Instead of blaming others in a toxic way, you should teach them what did they do wrong in a friendly way. Lose as a team, win as a team.
Long Story: So today, I am queueing low ELO flex with my friends, and there's a toxic teammate in my team. He is mad and blaming my friends and me for being dumb teammates. Since I am being called as a dumb teammate and I wanted to improve. So, I went to watch the replay and see what I did wrong. Then, I noticed that my friends and I should not be 100% responsible or the mistake. Here are the things that he blamed his team.
(To make things clear, mid is me, ADC is friend 1, Supp is friend 2, top is the toxic guy, and jg is just a random guy.)
The first thing that he blames: Vision. He blames the support for not warding enough. I honestly think this is the only thing that he said is correct. It's quite true that we don't have vision. However, he could've stated in a friendly way instead of calling people a %%%%%%. One more thing is that he is over pushing when there's no vision. This gives the other team some free kills.
The second thing that he blames: Not helping. In the early game, he is getting ganked by the mid lane, and he's down to half health. Then the enemy jungle punished him by tower diving him. At that moment, he blames me for not helping top. Meanwhile, I am helping bot to get turret. Yet he blames me for farming instead of helping him. At first, I was like I am only taking 50% of the blame, not 100%. After watching the replay, I've finally know the truth. The truth is, there are actually around 40 secs for him to recall, and he also had his teleport up. Instead, he stayed and got punished. Instead of blaming others, he should learn that he's overstaying. Moreover, he should actually check the mini map more often. I am actually in the bot lane, and not farming in the mid lane. I also pinged that I am OMW to bot.
My friends and I never blamed him for losing stupid 1v1s, and we never voted yes in the surrender vote. In one of them, he flashed into the enemy to re-engage and died. In the other one, he died against an enemy who's 2 level lower with around 1500 gold behind. Because of the second 1v1, we actually lost top the inhib turret. When you lose in 1v1, your team is not going to take the blame. You are the one who's responsible for your own death, at least 99.9999999% responsible for it. He could've avoided 1v1 by being less aggressive, and more passive. He could've flashed away instead of flashing into the enemy. He died in a 1v1 and lost top the inhibitor. Instead, he blames others for not helping again and blamed others for losing.
Overall, I am not going to blame you for losing because we win as a team, we lose as a team. Don't make us look like we are responsible for 100% of the decision, please. When you are tilting, don't make your team tilt too. Being toxic only gives you negative effects.
Welp, if you have read this far, then thanks for reading <3
