Word to the Wise: Pings Save Lives. Typing Kills.

From one Bronzie to the next:

Ping it, don't type it.

I myself am terrible about missing plays or dying while trying to type a plan or response out. I also have become super sensitive to when the enemy is typing (easy kill).

That being said, I'm tired of being trolled when I say in champ select that "I will be playing in all-mute, so ping. Can't read and play". Because really, I can't. I get severely distracted in trying to read the chat, especially with all the abbreviations. I'm sure some are better at the multitasking. I'm bronze 5, multitasking will not be a part of my games any more.

If you feel the same, know that you are not alone in all-chat off and all-ally muting on spawn. In all honesty, while you do miss out on the joys of learning more about your team mates - the Rift really isn't the place for it.

I'm also personally tired of champ select making team mates look enjoyable, friendly, and fun to play with, just to have an instant troll on first death.
