Uhm...excuse me?

If picking a certain champ in a certain gamemode was a crime, i think riot would have disabled those picks like they disabled ryze for urf.

I don't get people sometimes, they try all Kinds of excuses and shitty logics to justify having been (oh this will bring me great joy to say) #ABSOLUTELY WRECKED

in their respective lane/Jungle.

And while i myself mainly find comedic material from an egocentric's..well...ego, many others do not. This sort of "I didn't Lose, you tryharded" mentality is maybe not the worst toxic Thing by a mile, but it certainly is, if you excuse me for Saying this, the stupidiest Thing the playerbase has come to invent when you wanna talk about flaming enemies.

It's a real funmurder if you try a champion you haven't touched in a long time, or pick up something new or try to master a champ you REALLY suck at (For me those champs being riven and Sona) and you get to be called a tryhard for doing well once in a while. It kills any and all satisfaction in your own accomplishment.

this global denial for your own failures by shaming others really Needs to stop.

i main akali and recently learned katarina i mostly pick these two in normals i don't play ranked sometimes i destroy my enemy laner, other times i'm losing, yes, in normals, yes, with my main and i also have all-chat disabled.

the only time i've seen the 'try hard' argument was from my own team, in our own chat vs the enemy team in a 4v5 scenario and it was mainly used to say 'this situation is shitty >.> and feels awful'

moral of the story: disable all chat

The funny thing is, people seriously think that "tryhard" is an insult. Yes, I play this game to win. If you are not trying to win, I feel sorry for everyone who has to play with you in his team.

You're overanalysing stuff which is what they want, just ignore it.
