Normals are boring as hell after you've played Ranked. I even first timed Rumble in Ranked because Normals are so boring (won). The only people who talk **** about Elo and Ranked games are people who haven't played them much l0l

i play league of legends, and well every game really, the way they were supposed to be played. to have fun. to me having fun is playing normal games because ranked games are full of tryhards that care about their epeens too much to have fun.

just because im no stonewall, or xaioli, doesnt mean i should play ranked games to better myself. i enjoy playing games with the people i do and against the teams i play against at whatever elo normal uses for me.


edit: i've played with imaqtpie as well xaioli, he said barely anything at all and i could feel this smug sense of superiority because everyone but him was unranked. he frequents the /v/ channel. only game i've ever seen him play as well he usually sits quiet in the channel too.

I'd chime in with something inspiring but, in every ranked stream I've seen (HSGG, GuadsmanBob) those guys seem worked up over some of the most minor things. IDK about you guys but, I don't want to be one of those people. If anything, I'd say that ranked is bad for your health as it's putting a ton of unnecessary pressure on you. That's never good.
EDIT: I'm playing this game for fun. IDK about you but, if being the absolute best is what you define as fun, go ahead. I won't stop you.

And guess what, people troll ranked games just as much as they troll normal games. Hell, if I was gonna troll I'd go troll a ranked game, because the people there would freak out SO much more.


Actually, Riot's statistics (I read a post once) that proportionally, there are less troll-reports from normals than there are from ranked games.
Naturally, there are a LOT more normal games simply due to population differences, but talking purely ratios, ranked games would have far more troll-related reports.

A lot more.

I play both. Where do I sit on this? Normal games to learn the basics, ranked to improve and understand where you are as a player. That make sense? Take what you know from both to become a better player.


This does not apply to your average gamer who is content with their levels of achievement.

Either because we recognize we're good enough, or we're too stupid to notice we need to improve.
Aye. The rational content gamer, and the irrational noob gamer. Both of these form a huge population of well-adjusted peeps.

Define boring.

If you think it's too easy, a lot of people find that fun. For a majority of gamers (that means more then the people who seek challenges), easy fed wins are equally enjoyable relative to long-evenly-fought hard wins.

In my normal elo bracket (whatever that is) I hardly ever see any junglers. Sometimes I do, and then we get a tough game.
But, when I don't... Buahahahaha. Fun times. That is all.
