I hate when I hear the above phrase ... it denigrates those that like whatever mode it is they are playing. Bot games are important to those that like them, ARAM is important to those that like them, Normals are important to those that like them, TT, CS ... whatever. If you really think "It doesn't matter, it's only ..." don't play that mode.

I hate when people say that phrase. 'It doesn't matter. Its only Teambuilder'.
Yeah, its TB. But I can have a game that is up to an hour, with the whole idea behind it being 'winning'. So when ya feed, and don't respond to pings, or whatever else... it is really toxic.

Every time I see that line I get pissed off, especially when the idiots that say it are the ones that actually gets us to LOSE the game. Tired of retarded, and toxic players bringing up that stupid mess. Must be a troll that invented that lame line.

I kind of see where these people are coming from. Sometimes when I'm playing normals, people really angry, and start arguing with each other. League is a game, and its purpose is to provide enjoyment. Sometimes people lose sight of this, and start taking it too seriously. Although it is fun to win, if you lose, someone is doing bad, or someone says something mean to you, that does not mean you should get mad and/or say something back. Sometimes you just need to relax, play the game, and have fun.

This line means absolutely nothing. It's a true statement, but it conveys no new information and doesn't argue for or against anything. I don't know why people don't understand that.

"Do x/don't do y." "It doesn't matter, It's just ___." "What's your point? Still do x/don't do y."

You might as well say "who cares, the sky is blue."

CS player here... I know that feel so much. The worst part is that they say it after doing a big mistake just to make it look like they are good -_- Gosh... I hate this... if people don't care they shouldn't play, simple. Specially the high ranked SR players.. seriously those are the most annoying players ever!

"It doesn't matter, it's only ARAM" "It doesn't matter, it's only normals" "It doesn't matter, it's only League of Legends" "It doesn't matter, it's only a game" "It doesn't matter, it's only one person" "It doesn't matter, life is only an illusion"

Blah blah blah, people just want to make excuses sometimes. They will always be able to find one if they want to.

What if it ends with "...a game"?

As someone who has said this phrase I usually use it when people start flaming me in the game about one thing or another. When I play a normal game, I am usually not playing my main champion on my main role, so if I am not playing as well as my team thinks I should, it is because I am playing a champion I am trying to get better at rather than playing with only winning in mind. So if I am playing vayne ADC (which I am not good at) and not playing well and someone is flaming me I will say something like "Relax, normals is for people to try to improve their game, its not all about winning" (but I am still trying to win every game I play).

"Don't worry man, it's only normals"

  • only 95% of players who said this are losing & feeding like hell.

"GG 2 EZ!!"

  • only 5% of players who said that were winning.
