I had a friend one time who was so serious about League of Legends, that when he tried to get a new friend of his into it, he would complain about every little thing this kid did wrong. It's the toxicity of the normal players, but with people who you are supposed to like. If you're not good enough at being a Support, they will yell at you. If you don't use an attack at the right time or dodge at the right time, they will yell at you. If you don't have a correct build, they will let you know. I've seen a lot of friends play League, and they get into fights over everything and anything. Though I can't include the video of the rap itself, or a video demonstrating just how toxic the players can be because of the amount of cursing involved - if you're interested in finding out for yourself, just play a game of League on your own, or type in "toxic players league of legends" on YouTube. In fact, the toxic community of League of Legends is so bad, there's a rap about it. At the end of the day, it is a game, and it is meant to be fun.

Even a few angry players just suck the fun out of the game for everyone else, but there are more than a few. Too bad most of the League community doesn't grasp this. Plus, I can guarantee you that yelling at that one player is not going to make him/her better and is not going to help you win. You are not gaining anything from winning that match other than a better status in an online game. Besides some crappy in-game rewards, you're not getting anything. If you do well in that match you have a chance at being moved out of Bronze, or Silver, or whatever rank you happen to be situated in, but it's still just a game. Even in a ranked match, though, you have to question the legitimacy of yelling at another player because they're not doing very well. However, most matches are not up to that level. If every single game was a competitive game with money or a reward centered around it, then I would understand being upset if someone wasn't playing as well as they could be. They will make you feel terrible about yourself and turn you off from the game. Even if it is their fault, they will blame it on you. League players are notorious for not offering constructive criticism.Īverage players don't praise you for anything you've done well. It doesn't matter if you're new to the game or not. If you are not up to their standards, they will let you know, and they will not do it nicely.


League players tend to be jerks, for lack of not being able to use a stronger term. If you've never had a game of League of Legends where people aren't tearing you apart for everything little thing you've done wrong, then you're a lucky person.
