Every other game on the planet you are allowed to say things to your teamates like"Dude could you please stop dying and use your brain?" And it isn't going to get you in trouble. This game is so mother &&$ing infuriating that I am legit at the point of no return. People are so flippant and dismissive of their play when the play poorly that it sets me off. I don't know what else to do. I am HYPER competitive and it is NOT in my DNA to play a ranked game and just be like, "Its ok that we are getting steamrolled guise lets just try and have fun!" No man.....just ^&&^&ing no. Advice? ANYONE?!?!?!?!?? #()&%$&%&$%&)%&)(**%()%$)%#&$%(&#*)(%&*()_#

I've never understood people who claim to be "hyper competitive" and yet engage in behavior that hurts their chances of winning.

What will happen as a result of telling someone to "use your brain?" There's no switch that they can flip and suddenly be playing better. They either a) don't know how to play better or b) already know things are in a bad spot, are frustrated, and you've just directed their frustrations on you instead of the enemy. They won't want to do what you suggest, even if it's smart, because you already painted yourself as ignorant of the situation at hand.

If you're going to give feedback to teammates, give it with reasons or solutions. And not pointless solutions like "stay safe" or "don't feed." Teach your teammates as needed.

If you are still getting super frustrated, vent out loud instead of typing in chat. You can't get banned for what you yell at your screen or complain about to your friends.

I think you might want to sit down and take a moment to think about your stance on this whole issue and morality

Riot leans very hard towards leftism/feminism, so there is no helping the ultra censorship and suppression of liberty of expression.

If you are an intelligent man, you must understand that you need to play along, just object to the system.... violating the rules will result in you being punished, accomplishing nothing.

Your reference to celebrating "smack talk" is lacking one major difference to the ranked queue in league. In high competitive play, the players on a team are very close friends or at least know each other very well. In league you are dealing with strangers or mild acquaintances. Major leagues will issue fines for in-game behavior as well.

A rule of thumb to not be a d*#$: If you wouldn't say it playing some random person while playing pool at a bar or other competitive in person activity (PUG sports), you probably shouldn't say it just cause it's on "the internet".

There's websites that can help you deal with this anger. I recommend them based on your above message because this type of continuous behavior will get you banned. Also if you're getting so heated over games then maybe it is best if you don't play it.

just saying "can you stop dying" only is a good start. the 2nd part is not necessary.

Sit down, take a deep breath.

Tbh I trigger quite easy myself, and what I do most of the time now is just type ''/mute all'' at the beginning of games, and focus on what I am doing rather than what my team is doing. That simple. I lose some, I win some. Being competitive does not mean having a 100% win rate. Learn to accept defeat and you can move on easier.

Dude you are right;)..what you are saying it's not toxic.."get you shit together"..."stop feeding dude, other lanes are ahead, we can carry if you just fcking farm;)"..this is not toxic.

However, there is a bot that decides who to ban. And bcs this automatic system deals with human behaviour-ofc it's fcking broken. In this game, there is no such thing as your side of the story- it's just Riot side of the story. There is no way you can defend yourself and actually make a case. A thing i really hate about this. How is it possible for a company this big to not be flexible? to have only their side, their story, their shit.

They have rules and this rules are enforced by this system.

And they are not stupid- they are saying that things like this, are considered by the comunity toxic? What if i told you that i don't consider this things toxic? Am i not part of the comunity? does my opinion not matter? Also, if the comunity sets up the toxicity level- why there is no way to redeem yourself? I mean, if some players that reported you for toxic behaviour and they decide to forgive you- does this not matter?

I also find it very strange that it's so easy to report others, especially after the game. When you are influenced by that particular game- how can you possibly have a legit opinion regarding someone? "maybe you are salty, maybe you got camped, maybe you had a bad day, maybe you are on tilt" this factors influence your report value.

Alot of things are wrong with this, i mean, alot of them.

You can encourage your teammates without belittling them, and doing so is not hard. I understand the competitive nature of games, but there is a point where it goes from encouragement to being an undesirable teammate. You can tall your bot lane "hey guys, hug tower and farm safe" without adding several choice expletives in between. It is fine to suggest "Go mid while they're dead and break some shit" without calling your team shit.

The problem that most people have is separating the way they talk around people they know from their speech to faceless strangers on the internet. I can be crude among friends since I know their limits. However, the people on my team and the enemy team in LoL are complete strangers. One is a 45 year old doctor, two are college students, and one is a 15-year-old high school kid playing his only game on a weekday. Each one might have a different opinion on swearing, and if one does not like me calling them a heaping pile of shit for giving up two kills to a blitz-graves bot lane with double ignite, then they will have the option to report.
