So I have tried the Pacifist Karma in game...

I absolutely love Karma and have been a Karma main for years. I love her old lore but it doesn't matter because Riot had recently drastically changed her into a pacifist spiritual leader of Ionia.

To conform to the new lore, I tried to adjust my playstyle today. I decided not to kill a single minion or harm any of my opponents.

"_Killing would always be easy, but came at the cost of true enlightenment. _" Karma's voice echoed in my heart.

I entered a game as support, with Kai' Sa as my ad carry in the Taiwan server. In the first five minutes, Kai' Sa asked why I didn't use a single ability (even though I actually shielded her). I told her I only leveled up my shield since I didn't want to harm others. She died in a duo fight in bot lane and then gone afk, blaming me for not using my Q.

"Dude, are you Taiwanese? It's impossible to be a vegetarian here, " my jungler said. "No, I am Ionian," I averred.

My top laner said it's stupid for me to play a game and don't want to kill anyone. I replied to him that my spirit told me not to do any harm since I was the soul of Ionia. He said I was crazy and announced to the opponents that he gave up. My mid laner (Yasuo) and jungler (Cho Gath) also seemed to hate this idea no matter how hard I tried to protect them with my shield. They asked the opponent team to end the game quickly.

"Gangplank, you don't understand how valuable and vulnerable peace is," I told the top laner. "We got a dumbass thinking she's a spirit of Ionia," Gangplank told the opponent team.

We lost the match in around 18 minutes.

I wasn't mad because it's just that they didn't understand my ideology as a traditional Ionia spirit. I also realized how lucky Karma was that Irelia and the others who were fighting for Ionia didn't give up the fight and finally won the war against the invaders. Guess I wasn't as lucky as Karam.

Roleplaying in this MOBA game is quite hard, down right impossible since it expects you to do objectives that some champions would not even bother with in lore.

TBH that is really dumb. You shouldn't have thrown a game just to make a stupid point. There are better ways to argue for a lore revert.

Instead you took something from outside of gameplay and chose to use it to justify intentionally losing the game for your team.

Honestly I hope you get banned. Saying, "I know it was wrong and I don't plan to do it again" doesn't magically absolve you of guilt. You still made a conscious choice to do it in the first place.

Lol this is funny. I wouldn't even be mad at a troll like this that's good entertainment.

Why would you openly throw a game just to prove a moot point?(That karmas lore got butchered, so did everyone elses.)

The point needs to be made by playing games to match her lore to underscore how stupid they were to make such a decision. Your goal is suppose to be to improve lore, not crap all over it. You cannot make up a lore for a character that fundamentally goes against everything they do in game and expect to be patted on the back for a grand success.

It would be like taking iverns lore and copy/pasting it onto an olaf jungler with his butcher skin. Everything about what he does ingame is now antithetical to what you claim he is suppose to be.

Now this, this is satire at its finest.

Good lord, it must be hard being you. I can't imagine getting this upset about fucking lore that I'd ruin 4 other peoples game and then write an essay about it. Grow up.

I eagerly await the sequel, in which you attempt to RP as Varus new lore in game.

This is hilarious and proves a point.. until you link your game. It would have been just as funny and convincing had you made this story up. Pls don't ruin a game like that.

Why did you bought item 3098 than? Suspicious.

Why'd you build an aggressive support item if you don't intend to deal dmg should've gone coin

Why did you buy item 3310 instead of item 3304 if you planned on playing pacifist?
