Is League Of Legends Toxic? 

The big difference between League and other games is that if someone ints then enemies get stronger. In COD or shit like that, one person can't run down your game as hard, if he play poorly his value might be 0, in League a bad player has negative value.

Holy shit rant at 12:00 resonates so much I don’t wanna carry the game I want it to be a close nail biter where we fight it out in a epic team fight and 1 player is left standing to run it down and end those games always feels so much better to win for me at least

there are some inherently toxicity enabling things in league, but other than that, the real toxicity maker is addiction. addicts fighting over heroin.

It’s crazy seeing the 2014 LCS weekly breakdown because in my memory LMQ was stomping until playoffs, not just week 1 😂

My favorite part about there being no voice chat in league is that riot self admittedly chooses not to implement it cause they think people will be mean and hurty feelings. there is literally 0 reason in 2024 why i have to stop playing the game to type a message to be able to communicate with team mates.

Zven doing that Trump impression is kinda funny.

No voice comms in 2024 in an online game is extremelly stupid.

I’ve never roasted people harder in my life than league

LS recently spoke about vc and toxicity and basically took opposing view saying it would make it more toxic, would be cool conversation between dom and ls, or just about league in general they’re a underrated duo imo always enjoyed their discussions on facecheck or powers spike now

Big agree. I feel like I am playing 1v9 in like every game. I quit playing like 3 months ago and I had previously played every season since season 1 or 2

13:30 I feel this in my soul, I'm just trying to get plat queueing ADC as a personal goal, and it feels like it never matters how well I do, it only seems to matters how the rest of my team does. If I do poorly but my team is stomping, I'm at least allowed to play the game for the most part. If I'm ahead and team gets stomped, can't even farm without being rolled under tower mid-late game

3:37 but what if the other team is also trying to keep 30-40% winrate against you? At some point the "throw fest" eats its own tail.

"I want them to lose" man, I feel Dom there. sometimes people play so bad and have such a disgusting attitude, it's like why should I try for you? They care more than I do. So the tingling sensation of just tabbing out is hitting

That Curse vs Complexity game. FantasyLCS was popping off, thanks Dom 😂

Chat off and pings off whenever someone spam pings made the game so much more enjoyable for me. And I say this as a fucker who would be toxic and type.

Riot doesn't do enough to encourage active play and cooperation within their game, the lack of comms within the game, the allowing of multiple accounts, lack of moderation on the higher and lower ends outside of extreme cases, coordination and team-play not being rewarded by the devs or through game balance, there are aspects of the game that encourages KDA chasing and there is very little encouragement to work together and actually help your teammates when being selfish is easier.

Spica is based. Its a really good idea from dignitas to do videos like that.

i came back to league to play 1 game of D4-D3 and the first game enemy jgler ran it down.

The rant from 10:00 to 14:30 is 100% the reason I quit league, probably the most accurate rant about league I've ever heard. 40% of games my team will get completely stomped (usually flaming everyone who is not getting stomped), and I can't play at all and have to sit there afk for 20 minutes waiting for 1 mistake by their carry, and I have to play perfectly to capitalize, and I can't make a mistake all game. 40% of the games my team wins and usually just carries me and I could've been an AI. 20% of games are "real" games, where I have to hope I'm not in a losing lane or vs one of the many instant waveclear champions so that I can actually play the video game after doing nothing for 4 hours.

What got me from plat to master was when i played i just decided that im gonna spam farm and objectives and not force plays. When i can give the kill over to the laner and make it obvious I gave it to them and generally speaking you dont get flamed if you misplay later cause you did them a solid

I think toplane can carry games where everyone is feeding quite often. If you are ahead on a champion that can hard pressure sides you can potentially drag the game out so long that it allows your team to catch up and become relevant. It's part of the reason i enjoy it so much.

If you ff you lose and I'm not a loser 🗿 In EUW we say only french do ff, matter of fact the word forfeit is french. /all FF = French Forever

Leagues not toxic but I am

League is a team game without in-game voice comms, where like 50% of people are chat restricted

yea i agree with the sentiment that the game is kind of carry or lose. i was thinking about it earlier where like technically you can kind of just 1v5 in csgo or valorant, but in league you cant legit 1v5 you have to just pull your cattle to the water and pray they drink

i literally cannot playt league without smoking first because only then will the obscenities typed to me do not inflict damage onto my mental and i can just ignore it and focus more. I dont think the game itself is toxic, but i think that they should try to implement things to make the solo q experience a bit more like the competitive experience of lcs, i watch a lot of pro games and then when i go to play solo q it is an entirely different game, it sucks lol

If you are playing as a team, you should almost never ff as if you don’t learn how to play from behind, when you play on stage you will never be able to make a come back.

Why wouldn't a team wanna be confident? G2 does it and has been working quite well for them overall

Not inherently toxic, but toxic mentality across the general public nowadays

Its not brain science, its baffling how one of the most team centric games refuses to give us voice comms, you dont get 5vs5 because nobody gonna type shit or ping shit to communicate... just put voice comms in the game..

Instant click, man I love watching some Dom.

Man Dig is so fun, I need them to top 3 in LCS

having a voice com would prob make things less toxic over enough time but it would make it much more racist

Toxic players will make any game toxic

Content King Zven

People turn into crabs when they play League (the bucket).

I'm not toxic, I just do cocaine

how can u not be insecure in this type of environment these young guys are all being treated like cattle and some dude with fat pockets hiring weirdos with self appointed titles i mean wtf are these people? I used to think people like dardoch were just twisted but the reality is this whole esports scene is cutthroat and disgusting.

14:25 adc is the most team reliant role in the game, how can anyone think it's fun to play with 4 losing players on your team? it's the most miserable shit you can imagine. dom says as jungle you can't even take your camps, which is true, but as adc you don't get to collect resources either. you can't walk to your bot t2 and collect the wave because there's no vision anywhere and enemy team has a hecarim. how good are marksmen champs without gold? it's literally the same shit as the agurin zyra game. you either go afk or you go 0/15, just nothing you can do, gl hf

chat isn't toxic, in game behavior is call me anything you want but stop soft inting

Jens need to get a buzzcut already

Is the sky blue?

"people don't have balls to be toxic in a voice" oh boy, have you played Valorant or CS? Or Dota2?

nah league players are all legit built like fiddlesticks or gragas, then you have the 50kg guys saying they would kill you irl. Imagine Bardinette acting hard lmfao

I thought people were fucking over about "being toxic" in a fucking online game...

bring back duo queue

Why are we using this music

Just came here to answer the thumbnail question......yes.....enjoy the video

Is LOL toxic do you blink. You have your answer.

I’m actually disgustingly early what is wrong with me

League is a toxic game and this two dudes have no idea lmao

Lots of love. My haha r a jaja. Laugh out loud. Maharaja.

Zven arguing like Trump is crazy 😂

league is so toxic cause you snowball so hard. nobody would care that top is running it down if you felt like you could still pull it back. even in ARAM which is legit 100% made for you to ignore winning and have fun people call FF two minutes into the game cause they don't want to play a losing game.

yes

League isnt a toxic game. There are aspects of it that dont necessarily promote healthy gameplay loops but that doesnt make the game toxic and those things arent an issue for 99% of players. The toxic part is almost entirely on the people who play the game.

Yes. Next question

the game becomes toxic because no one views the game the same way and climb their own way

Is water wet?

League honestly shows a modern form of communism in a funny way.

With the voice chat argument that Dom made I disagree, unless lol players are that pussio I don't see why it would be different than any other competitive genre with voice chat, I find in fps games people talk in a way more toxic manner than they type. But maybe that's just an OCE thing
