Is that game still the poster child for toxic gamers? Been years since I played but I would never let my kid play that game.
It's sad because it is pretty fun when you get into it and when you have people to play with. But it really only takes one person to ruin a match for nine other people by trolling/feeding/etc. I ended up quitting because it was just WAY too toxic.
The shit people used to say in that game... like nothing I've heard in any other game. Literally talking about
spoiler
raping peopleI played (and lost) 3 games, no-one said or typed anything at all that I could see, though that may be an artefact of a super low elo game?
Possible you're in a noobie bracket where they keep you away from experienced players so you can learn with less stress... and get into the game before you realize how toxic it can be. :-D
But glad it's good so far! It really is a fun game. I played for a couple years despite all the toxicity so yeah.
I played a long while ago and a string of similar incidents eventually made me leave.
I came back ~6months ago, and it was more chill, but still not great.
I will say that if you're in a group of 3 or more non-toxic people, you almost never get toxic players. Not only because you've only got 2 chances to roll low rather than 4, but also because they're more aware that probably won't get anywhere.
I've been playing Counter-Strike for over a decade and I still can't handle the LoL community. That alone should indicate how toxic it is.
Not sure when they added this (maybe season 10) , but you can mute in game by default. I use it. You can still see pings and emotes. When someone is obviously griefing with pings, I mute them completely.
The game is a much better experience that way. Chat in that game is overrated. Plus without all the none sense people spew in chat it’s easier to find flash and summoner timers
People were begging for auto-mute back when I was playing. I realize that it's a team game and they don't want to discourage communication but they were well aware of the toxicity. They implemented the Tribunal system to try to address it. Didn't do much in the short term. Glad rito caved on the auto-mute.
It's somewhat better but heavily depends on what you play and how you play it. Empirically, it's better as now I only find toxic players every 20 games or so, when before it was like 1/2. But I also recommend to just mute everything and everyone and stick to ARAM if you don't like toxicity.
Oh yeah, I forgot they added an official ARAM mode. Back when I played, it was a custom game thing and kinda honor system to stay in the middle lane. I played it a lot before I quit for the low stress environment. Kinda want to check it out now. Shame/not-shame I can't because I'm on linux.
I recommend it a lot, it's very entertaining for team fights and quick tactics, rather than waiting 20 mins for the fun to begin or waiting for your JG to do something in SR
I recently played battlebit and experienced more bigotry and toxity in an hour than I have in a year of casual league play. I heard the n word more times in that hour then I have ever seen in league, since season 6.
Never heard of it, but I'll be sure to keep away in the future, thx.
