I've just come out of a bunch of ranked games where in the first two my teammate disconnected (one because of flaming teammates and the other for no given reason). Ultimately it cost me games, time and LP I feel I definitely deserve back. The third game not only did we have a dcer, we had a troll in game on the enemy team resulting in our normal comp vs a maokai, alistair, taric, Jax and Yasuo. At first everything was going ok. Then my team tilted so horribly it wasn't funny, diving into the enemy and unwarded areas for no reason and then they flamed me when I repeatedly begged (begged!) them to stop doing it.They were pinging for Baron almost every time we got a kill, despite how weak we might have been each time. It just boggles the mind that silver ranked people do this kind of thing.

I'm desperate to hit gold this season but if things keep going the direction of trolls and the like whenever I hit silver 2 or higher I'll never get there. I'm still fairly new to the community, are there certain times of the year when this kind of thing becomes more common?

Edit: Just went for another game hoping the community wouldn't let me down again. i was last pick. We started with a ziggs first pick. Then a jarvan Jungle. Here's where it gets fun, Top Malzahar Ad. Ok, that's one thing occasionally played my some people, has no place in ranked but whatever. Then we finish with the next guy immediately picking Warwick and locking in.

I did not pick a champion, for obvious reasons.

What the **** is wrong with league today?

the worst time to play ranked is always before the end of the season, Gold rewards are just to strong people flame because it's not only a game or LP it's their free skin on the line. Also trolls have a field day when they can deny someone two things for the price of their afk.

Other times to avoid are Christmas/Winter break or any other time of the year school Kids get a week break from school that's not summer break. Just because you end up with school kids who have nothing to do but play League... it's Scary

Avoid playing during school break's around 6-9 because When your ADC has a bed time it's GG

I am completely aware that it's nearly unavoidable due to timezones and schools giving out breaks at slightly different times of the year, but it is something I have noticed that seams to happen more often during these breaks.

Idk about ignoring ranked all of summer and winter because of school breaks, but it's definitely true that the best time to play ranked isn't during the last couple months of the season.

no one ****ing knows man, there isn't a particular time period when all the trolls come out of the woodwork. You're going to encoutner trols and dc's in some of your games regardless what time of year or day you play
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

I never said to ignore ranked all together during those time altogether, and summer is not a problem at all for school kids ruining games like they do during the short school breaks. Just because they don't really have anything else going on other then a week off from school to play games.

And I have just noticed that I have always had more leavers around 7-9pm due to people going afk then other times I play, but that's just my personal opinion of the worst time to play ranked/normal's

Sundays, and particularly holiday weekends. It is about this time that most people at work/school will take vacation time and take out their stress on people through the internet.

I don't see how school-kids are any worse than adults when it comes to toxicity. People are immature in general on the internet.

it's more about their lack of skill/leaving due to stupid stuff then their toxicity since when they try to be toxic it's more funny then offensive.

When the sun goes down, and you hear the rustling of the keyboard. When you look out of the window and see people are already closing their laptop lids. When, as you join the game, you hear a slight giggle in the distance, slowly getting closer and closer. And when it's finally here, don't look back. Stay under your sheets, block the space underneath your bed and wait for the sun to shine again.

Had a ranked game today (3 wins in a row now, hooray!) The enemy team's Ryze decided he didn't like their Yi who was flaming apparently, so he decided to troll and cost them the game. I was last person in the aftergame chat and he asked me to report the Yi. I said no, I was gonna report him instead. I got back in response "u just earned report". That's gonna have such an impact on me lol.
