Anyone else feel ashamed they play LoL because of the community? I just started playing this game 2 months ago and love it, but the community is worst than xbox live ever thought about being .

Actually i meet more mannered players than in SC2. In SC2 half of the games ended with no GG or "wtf your race is so easy, you don't deserve the win" (i played random -.-" ) while in LoL i get the "bg" or flaming like once in 10 games maximum.
People in LoL aren't usually mean if you are humble, but i guess if you like to argue then yeah, most of them won't be nice (like if you do stupid dive and die and someone says "wtf you doing ashe" and you respond with "shouldn't have done that, sry" most of the players will just be fine with this, but if you respond with "i had him but he got lucky so stfu" then you are just asking for a flame war)

This kinda applies to most LP people, that's why i rarely play with TLers and when i do i play with people who: are at around my skill level AND don't care about winning that much

I think it's partly to do with the sheer size of the community. There are millions of MOBA players out there, so I guess there's a lot of people just trying to be big fish in a big pond.

Or maybe it's because the genre has just exploded relatively recently and real communities (with history) haven't been established yet.

Well the DOTA community was also pure shit, maybe even worse then LoL.

I think it comes with the genre and how another players poor performance directly influences not just your odds off winning or losing but your own performance.

If someone else dies a hundred times to a Singed then you aren't going to be able to do damage against a Singed. If your ally can't play SC2 for shit your units will still do the same damage against the enemy.

Bad players make you feel like a bad player and i think that really pisses people off. That and it's teamgame by definition so it's always more likely to enrage people then a game where you can be pro solo.

Yes and I think that's why a lot of people that only play solo games like SC2 or whatever have a hard time understanding why LOL and other games are competitive or even worth playing. The basic mechanics might be easier, but actually getting 4-5 people that get just GET ALONG TOGETHER, is nearly impossible. Then you have to get everyone on the same page, and keep them on the same page. It's not as simple as having great mechanics and understanding, you can't force thoughts into your team mates brains(yet!!!). I played Halo competitively for 6 years, went to MLGs, played local events constantly, etc.. and individual skill means nothing at top level of play. Absolutely nothing.

Team games are... team games, and are a lot different from something like starcraft.
