No, I didn't mean it like that. I mean that ranked is incredibly frustrating to climb on and if you play ranked, then you do care about how far you reach, no matter what you say, or you wouldn't be playing ranked.
But as a casual gamer, you'd find it impossible to climb, and each individual loss caused by your team playing bad would make you want to kill yourself ( not literally ) because of how slow you climb when you play so little games.
Ranked can be fun to play, but if you play ranked, you inevitably care about whether you win or lose because you want to climb, and therefore, you will inevitably become extremely frustrated every time you lose because of your team, which happens a LOT. The only pleasure you can actually gain from ranked, other than enjoying game play ( which can be done in normals with much less flaming on both teams ), is to manage to reach your objectives. If you only play every now and again, you WON'T reach your objectives, or at least any respectable objective, and therefore, will just become frustrated.
When it comes to ranked, you tryhard or you just don't do it. If you're only playing casually, normals are much less frustrating, and give the same amount of fun in-game, if not more because people generally don't flame as much.
For the record i did not sleep well last night, I go a few choice words for some of you though, hopefully I can think it through while I'm at work to make them even more choice and not explode again...
no promises though, it depends on my work day >.>

Kazega please dont turn this into a "woe is me" thread again like you always do, we get it youre in bronze
when i play ranked i pretend its just a normal game its a lot less stressful and fun specially if theres talk in all chat but yeah id choose a champion that isnt hiemer since he doesnt have the best rewards for playing well (and cuz people will get pretty pissed if you lock in the dinger)

Kazega I appreciate that it feels pretty damn bad when you can't get to where you think you should be, but if you're letting it get to you to the point where you're having an all-caps outburst, 'crying yourself to sleep' and having problems sleeping I think you really need to remember that this is just a game. It doesn't matter at all. Chill the hell out and enjoy it, or don't play until you can. It really makes no difference whether you're bronze or plat at the end of the day, you're still playing the same game with the same people.
I also suffer from social anxiety, don't go outside and have taken this game way too seriously in the past. I know that feel. I don't play solo at all because I can't deal with the pressure of a full team of random people on my own. My own mindset, attitude and ability are holding me back from potentially reaching platinum, the same as everyone else playing the game who complains about being unable to climb.
Trust me you're not helping anything by lashing out at people, it'll just make everything worse.
