I work about 6 days a week. So when i have a day off, i'd like to enjoy my time and relax. Mostly i choose to play some games with a bunch of friends and obviously nine out of ten times it's League.

Today most of my friends are enjoying a nice hangover so i decided to dedicate this day to League by myself. Trying to enjoy my time, relax for another 6 day work week to come. But, here it is, the playerbase sucks. Today i only had games with ragers, leavers, instalockers, trollers, ping spammers, feeders etc. And somehow i get the feeling this is happening to me more and more and more. (No i'm not Bronze V).

Actually, with the level of stress i'm at now i'm pretty sure that i'll stop playing this game because of these players, for the reason i only get stressed out because of other players behaviour. So tell me, is it just me who thinks the playerbase is getting more toxic or do i happen to simply just have bad luck the last couple of weeks?

You know you can mute the ragers, right?

My advice, play with friends or just stop caring about it. I mean, it's just one game and you're probably never going to see them again after that game. Just play your hardest and carry on.

If a couple games is the reason you quit playing league that's pretty sad. Were you the one initiating anything in those? I mean like just ignore them and have fun, people are always stupid.

5Premates are the best way to enjoy the game. Otherwise try to mute those flamer/ragers.

Think about this here:

Warning: bad ****ing language.

Usually, my reactions to these ****ers are:

1. trolls: **** 'em, i'm carrying anyways.
2. leavers: try to get peeps together and push to win as fast as possible, if to no avail, surrender.
3. ragers: mute.
4: feeders: try to talk some sense into them, if to no avail, see #1.
5: instalockers: pick something that should help your team, then see #1.
6: ping spammers: not a problem, just tell 'em to chillax a bit.

mute people that talk too much right away (typically those ******s already start in champ select so mute em as soon as you can or manually mute em in the client).

just ignore trolls; don't try to talk sense into them as the chances are high you'll just feed their apetite to fluster you and you might end up cursing (as well, unless they're trolling by suiciding or buying 5 phantom dancer, etc.), reducing the odds of them being banned by getting reported significantly and increasing the odds of you getting reported.

if someone leaves just try to end the game ASAP, although the odds are fairly small. otherwise just pop a surrender vote or AFK if it's really beyond lost (you won't get banned if you have a good reason to AFK such as this from my experience).

there's not much to do against instalockers except deal with it. riot doesn't condemn instalocking so just fit in the best you can but tell them they're douches for doing so l0l.

someone that feeds is bad and typically bad players have really poor insight on themselves and will deflect blame as fast as it arrives. ignore and focus on your own play.

so yeah generally just try to focus on your own play and ignore bad/toxic players.

In my experience, after you reach a certain MMR threshold players stop giving a **** and start trolling and having fun.
