I think Riot should shutdown the cross continent play to help with the servers. IMO if Riot had come up with a tutorial you could play it would of also helped with the server traffic. I guess the pressure from everywhere, to get the game out, prevented that consideration. {{sticker:zombie-brand-facepalm}}

Ban a player and you create a smurf with a temper that ruins the game for the rest of us lessor players. Its impossible to properly match teams up with the amount of smurfs in game as it is .. players should be banned away from the Rift only .. let them still aram and if it continues ban them to the 3 on 3 game.

I haven't won a Ranked game since I placed. I am bronze 3 and constantly play with silvers and lose. You and I and thousands more are just cannon fodder for all the Smurfers out there. When you start the game with 3 to 4 level 5,6 or 7's on your team and you can see the other team had less then 30,000 point combined you feel you may have a chance at winning. Then you see that they are all a Microphoned team of smurfs that obliterate your team in less then 15 minutes all the time insulting you. You are not alone in your frustration, just don't think that anyone at Riot is doing anything about it. Riot only interest is squeezing every last penny from your pocket. You may want to focus on ARAMs. I have a won a few games there recently.

Patch 8.12 notes
When was the last time Riot helped supports and not hinder them? It's hard enough to find supports to play the game as it is and Riot seems on the path to making it even harder. Also if you want to "Balance" the take away out then Give the shield skills lower cool-downs or lower mana costs. Just don't gut the shield skills without compensating in other areas of the champions effected. Insanity Now!

A Great game would make you feel okay regardless of winning or losing .. winning isn't everything. you just need a chance to win and do your best. you have nothing to be ashamed about losing a game of League.

You can always let your game play speak for you. You don't need to justify your actions or lack of them to anyone. I have found myself in the exact place where you were. Use their actions as a challenge. Sometimes you can overcome a player AFKing and win the game.
Also : People act poorly sometimes to get a reaction from you. Don't give them the pleasure of knowing you are angry.

Totally agree with you. I only support and I don't have friends that play this game. I would really love to understand what to do with the runes. There doesn't seem to be anything to offer defensively that can counter the strength of the offensiveness of the runes. It seems that snowballing times have been dramatically shortened because of this. If riot could put together a default rune setup for each of the champions it would really help. it always seems that we are only given the keys to the car but have to teach ourselves how to drive it. I am getting tired of the constant re-learning of the game.

How easy it must be to sit in your chair and cast negative remarks about those who are mostly relieving their frustration. The game is hard and mostly unfair. The game relies on people to group up and repeatedly defeat single players, holding them captive for 20 minutes or more. There is no regard to the frustration the game inspires in others, the only retort for Riot's creation is for those to say "Don't play the game". The game is akin to a smoker trying to give up smoking while everyone around them is puffing away. But I can see that you are better then all that. You must be one of those single players without a group to play with that's experienced enough in life to go 0 and 20 and still see it as fun.
League of Legends inspires players to become Toxic and, when they do so, punishes them. Although there is no place to "utter slurs" there is nothing about the game that inspires people to be less Toxic. It is up to the players to inspire people to be less Toxic by praising there efforts regardless of a defeat or victory. I can see that you "missed the boat" on that one. Please continue to be part of the problem and show the rest of the players were our place is.
I have created Spams to paste into the end game chat to inspire others rather the berate them. Maybe you could see yourself big enough to come over from the dark side and inspire other to do better. I use the following .. please feel free to use them in this game as well..
pasted : "
<Hard LOSS>
Here we stand, having been given the opportunity to prevail against difficult odds and regardless of outcome, regretting nothing and honoring all.
<Hard WIN>
May the only reward be the acknowledgement that today, having battled against difficult odds, we few are honored to have been part of this Great Battle.
<Easy WIN>
Honor: Yourself, by only seeking challenging competition, Your opponent, to qualify your skill in their defeat, The Game, by allowing your only reward to be participation in a Great Battle
The value in victory is only as great as the effort needed to achieve it.
EZ are two letters used by a fool to insult his or her own skills.
" : end of paste
Over the years I have learned that spreading negative comments is easy and cowardly and it is much harder to be compassionate. You have a choice. Be part of the problem, or fight against the those who use the game to frustrate others in order to feel better about themselves. What I have read here is just another attempt to create toxic players.
Cheers!

Let's Chat about Honor
Honor.
Unless the word finds a true meaning to each of us then the game suffers.
I've come to enjoy and hate League, which in my +30 years of computer gaming is not that common.I believe that a computer game can only survive if the players strive to keep the game honorable.
I have seen a lot of Toxic computer games die or just fade because of people who choose to use the game to put each other down in order to feel better about themselves.
Newer players don't become established players because of the level competition they face and the game Toxicity.
The real quest to become an honorable gamer is to only strive for a great battle regardless if who wins or loses.
The real quest to become an honorable game is to only strive for games of evenly skilled players in order to nurture this.
Thank you for letting me ask another question that maybe of importance to us as well.
**Is this game honorable? **
My guess would be it depends on which of us both outside and inside Riot, truly work towards it.
Now I have been to your website and now seen the work on the player item setups. Both are amazing and I can only guess how many hour of work went into both. As a player I thank you for both.
I could mention that in the item setups it would be nice to have the default setup as a choice when creating an item setup. It would better help a newer play be able to tweak his/her setup instead of creating one from scratch. It would also be great if we had the choice to pick one of the setups from the LCS players, but we must be able to walk before we can run i guess :)
In closing I would like to blurt something I spam into the chat at the ending of game:
_Honor: Yourself, by only seeking challenging competition, Your opponent, to qualify your skill in their defeat, The Game, by allowing your only reward to be participation in a Great Battle_

Well .. think of League of Legends as a Rock, Paper, Scissor, game with over 150 different possibilities (champions) . Then think of each one of the possibilities having 5 or more skills that have 5 levels of growth. Now add in Masteries and Runes and all the Items you can buy.
Okay, now lets talk about how you could possibly balance that, specially when you want to release a new champ every 2 months.
The players that are at the top of their game are the only ones that Riot uses to gauge a champions "Balance" because its easy for Riot to be shown a Champion being used to its full extent. The failure is that you can never match-up one champion with every other champion effectively, so other variables must be used to "Balance" each champion. Riot has no end of information on every game that is played. We only are shown a small percentage of the information that is from our past games. There is a massive amount of information that is being created in every minute of game-play. This information could be used to create a better Balance, but I do believe that it is virtually impossible to ever obtain a "balance" with in the Champions
I also believe that for every Champion you add, the difficulty balancing, increases exponentially.

+126 Champions to learn how to play with or against with a Laning phase and group phase. Need to understand about build patterns and countering opposition builds. Add in Keystone masteries.

When people get frustrated they feed. How many hours of study and play does it take to get good at the game ?. Seriously, Riot pretty much does nothing to help players learn about the game's team compositions. Riot relies on players to teach themselves how to play and changes the balance of the game so that if you do get to have a chance to learn a champ this month then next month your learning again.
Add more champs+Change game setting=constant studying the game in order to get anywhere.
More effort should be put into the ability to tell players, when in Pick/Ban phase, which player comp are better or worse based on Enemy's picks/bans.

Riot does not care about people getting all bent outta shape about the game. If you get upset because the people who play the game don't take it as serious as you do, then you need to find a different game. If Riot cared, even in the slightest, about anyone's "feelings" they would put some resources into trying to adapt the game by providing better game play. They are too busy with pouring resources into profit over any player that is under diamond, and specially players that have reached level 30.
I have been playing Computer games for over 25 years and it's the same story now as it was then. In the past, as well as today, companies enjoy when people get all bent out of shape over the game because it causes people to talk about the game. No press is bad press.
Have you seen anything from Riot about how to cope with the frustration of the game? Have you seen ANY resources put towards players constantly losing the game? Oh yeah .. one short video with staffers basically laughing at each other over what they do when faced with losing multiple games in a row.
In some of my previous posts I have mentioned about constantly having losing streaks over hours. I have read multiple posts about people getting frustrated with losing multiple games in a row. Again, Any answers from Riot?
Riot can easily hide behind the following:
"It's Free, if you have a problem with it then it's your problem not Riots. Just stop playing it."
Other players enjoy seeing you frustrated and laugh at you when you are. You also need to understand that you are, more times then not, playing with children.
Mark these words. Riot will someday be in the same position as every other game that has ignored their player base. People will just move to a different game leaving Riot holding an old game that only a few hundred people still play.
Its already started. Remember Dominion? The people who played it have a nice shiny summoner icon to remember it by.

Your level of play puts you in a tiny percentage of all the games out there. When ever a change is made it needs to look at a huge amount of games that have also changed. When you also factor in things like Time of Day and Weekly population fluxes and Champion balance with current average population's skill level, it becomes even smaller. Remember there are a lot of Diamonds in the ruff and with a little polish, are able to make you a believer. Sometimes no greater reward is simpler then snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.
Sometimes I think Balance is an illusion and we are all on the brink of an uncontrollable unbalancing act.
Sometimes I think my soapbox is a bit too big for myself.
Honor:
Yourself, by only seeking challenging competition,
Your opponent, to qualify your skill in their defeat,

The Chest/Key System only was touted as a place to obtain free gear. Riot made no mention of a skewed drop system only getting you half the way to the "Free" gear. It is not surprising that this is another way for Riot to increase revenue. What is surprising that it wasn't properly explained before/when it was released causing angst amongst the players.
