I did this. Ranked is seriously hell for your psyche to have to deal with all of the raging idiots and if normals are becoming that too then you should definitely take a break.

Ouch.
I just lost to a Heimerdinger pretty hard. Was playing TF, everytime I ulted he just took a tower. Lost my inhib at 18 minutes to just heimer.
Pretty smart counterpick by him. Totally nullifies what makes TF awesome by forcing him to be in lane. Looking back, I ulted bottom and turned around a gank from a 1-0 for other team and grabbed a triple. But lost tower so team still lost the trade anyway.
I feel baited and outsmarted. I dunno why I forgot how hard Heimer pushed things.
Triple kill on TF > a tower.
Honestly TF pushes harder than Heimer anyways once you get levels. By the time you're level 7 or 8 you clear faster than Heimer does. As others indicated it just sounds like your jungler was shit.
Like if you're going around the map getting kills and their mid is just sitting there solo pushing then it isn't even your jungler that's failing. Why didn't your team turn those kills into towers or dragons? Why didn't your jungler hold mid when you went to gank? If no one held mid when you would gank how are you not trading towers for towers...? How is bot and top lane not winning with TF pressure and ganks while the enemy team has a mid laner that just sits in mid lane?
You can only do so much. If you really were ganking top and bottom and getting kills the only thing you could've done better was turn those kills into objectives if you noticed Heimer was just sitting mid. If you're turning kills into objectives and your team is still losing out because Heimer is taking three towers and an inhib it's hardly your fault as TF. Your entire team failed hardcore and they should all feel ashamed for not dumping on their lanes and grabbing towers.

Solution: play ARAM (no role calling bullshit), immediately mute all teammates at start (no real strategy in ARAM)

l0l?
I don't see how trashtalk should be a breaking point in this game. It's something you can entirely ignore (figuratively and literally). Shit play, ok fine, you have to carry bads but that's the nature of solo queue. But trashtalk? Either thick skin or remove chat. I honestly don't see why chat has to have a negative impact on anyone in this game.

It's not even the nature of solo queue. It's online gaming period. If you can't ignore it, laugh it off, or troll the kids who rage at you then you should probably be playing with friends and with friends only.

Because communication is important in a team game, it's available by default and ignoring people should only be a final measure?

Ignoring people is helpful but does not stop 100% of all harassment 100% of the time.
Unless you want to pre-emptively ignore people before they say anything (which IMO is a pretty big dick move and I won't do it.) then they have to be an ass to you before you can ignore them. So ignoring people, while helpful, does not solve everything.
Not letting it get to you is one thing, but actually enjoying yourself while it's happening is something else. There is only so much trashtalk a person can take before they start to question whether or not it's actually worth it to play a game with the people who are harassing you. And when games like that are more or less 100% of your experience, it gets old pretty quick.
I have been playing games online my entire life, and I've NEVER experienced the kind of shit that I do on LoL. It's not even comparable. It's just not any fun to listen to people calling me a faggot and saying they want to rape me every single day.
In hindsight, those two statements put together is kinda funny.

Not sure where you're coming from here? Did I offend you by suggesting you should ignore the trashtalkers?

It is probably a safe assumption that I know there is an ignore option in the game.
So if you're telling me I should use the ignore option you either
A - Think I'm stupid.
B - Think I'm just QQing for no reason and you think it would be funny to troll me.
Or C - just in general want to be a dick.
All three of these options are offensive. So yes, it was offensive. I did not appreciate it.

I dunno, I hear people say that league is the worst community they've ever experienced. But there's just as much, if not more, shit talk in the high levels of the fps community and it's definitely just as bad in the fighting game community. I feel like people with this attitude came from the rts community which, imo, did see significantly less shit talk than fps and fighting games I played.
At the end of the day you can't control how other people behave you can only control how you react to it.

idk, was simply offering a suggestion on how to make the game more bearable but if League doesn't bring you fun anymore then perhaps it is time to take a break.
@Cloud: Obviously communication is important but frankly you can play most solo queues off pings alone. It's not the best but sometimes it's the easiest.

So while I was looking through Ryze skins, I discovered they are pretty much all kinda meh. So what do you think about a Hellboy Ryze, with a red model spitting out fireballs. Their faces are kinda similar and I think it would be just awesome.

Well.. Shit man, I didn't mean to piss you off. If suggesting you shouldn't pay the trashtalkers any mind makes you think I'm an asshole, yeah, you should take a break, because you are really high strung, you're seeing trashtalk where there is none.
