Just drank pocari sweat. Pretty good imo. It's a less sweet non carbonated version of squirt. No gosu eye twitch though.


Asia has really odd sodas.

When I was in South Korea I had an aloe "soda" that actually had chunks of aloe in it that tasted absolutely goddamn amazing. Apparently it's also really good for an upset stomach.

However, Squirt is gross man. I used to drink that shit when I was a kid, I tried one about a year ago and I think it took a week off my life.

You can get aloe in the states. Jsut gotta go to Korean markets and/or Chinese markets. Ranch 99 has 'em. Iirc they're literally called "Aloe". They're called Aloe Vera.

I don't think that's quite the one I had, the one I had actually had chunks of the plant floating around in it.

Prob similar though, was really really good.

They do have chunks in the drink. You just can't really see 'em in the picture. There's a few different brands, but Aloe Vera is the most common one.


You guys are fuckin' crazy drinking that asian stuff. I avoid ALL strange foods and drink here in sri lanka lol

Interesting to see that RapidStar plays with 1234 instead of QWER.

Hi guys, quick question. I'm a masters level SC2 player trying to make the transition to League right now but am getting stuck with a bunch of idiots on my team every game. What I don't understand is how everyone is so toxic in this game. Even some of the streamers I see here are really stupid and make shit plays but won't admit them. Why is that? I'm stuck in silver right now because every time I die, my team calls me a noob and just AFKs or does something stupid. I can't play the champions I want to play (Teams won't let me play Karma, even though I've seen pro players pick her) because they just say I'm stupid and bad.

How do I get myself out? In SC2, it was always just me vs. the other guy. Here I have to babysit and take care of 4 stupid kids every single game while putting up with all this shit. All League players seem to be very toxic and it's just a very bad environment. I don't understand because these people are not only bad, but they can't admit their own mistakes, and they blame others. I read threads in this forum and the ones in the QQ thread basically sum up League of Legends as a whole. A toxic community full of toxic players. I know I'm better than everyone here, I just feel very restricted because others are dragging me down. I've tried watching some people stream, but there are rarely any good streamers here on TL, and most of them are toxic too. Even players like Destiny are what I consider toxic players. Why do you people put up with incorrect theorycrafting and just overall bad play and bad ideas?

What do you think? I'm sure others here experience the same thing. What do you suggest I do?

I bind skills to 1234. I bind items to qwerty. Feels more comfortable as a former starcraft player to have fingers sitting on 1234.

O.o I do that

123456 for skills/summoner spells

QWED for items 1236

A for attack move, s to stop. Most other keys are the same.

In game, especially ones at lower brackets, sometimes you just can't reason with people. Use /ignore; it works like a charm.

As for getting up in elo, you really just gotta get good enough to the point were you can carry 4 idiots against 5 idiots. That tends to mean crushing your lane and making good calls/decisions. I find that people tend to listen to your calls if you aren't flaming at them and if you're doing well (ie. good KDA).

Every single game like LoL, including Dota, has problems with a toxic community/playerbase partially because outcomes are so dependent on your team.

Golem into Aegis into Locket seems like a good standard/core to build off of.

Honestly I've found that in most cases, what you give is what you get. I thought silver was a fucking den of vipers until I had an epiphany (aka playing Katawa Shoujo) and just decided to be a bro in game. Turns out that everyone is emotionally inconsistent and will, for the most part, match the vibe you set in game. Stop thinking "I know I'm better than everyone else here" because that's what everyone else thinks and it gets you absolutely nowhere. So having that kind of mindset is solo-queue suicide.

I consider myself pretty good. I can consistently lane against Plat/Diamond players without a problem. Just when I go to solo queue, I get idiots such as wei2coolman on my team. The stereotypical League player who is a condescending asshole and also sucks dick at this game.

I am pretty sure you are not as good as you think. Look at your own mistakes instead of what your team did wrong

You gotta have the "I'm better than these guys and will crush them" mindset to some extent, though. That being said, you really don't want to be toxic yourself since the easiest way to lose games is to kill your team's morale.

What I don't understand is how everyone is so toxic in this game. Even some of the streamers I see here are really stupid and make shit plays but won't admit them. Why is that? I'm stuck in silver right now because every time I die, my team calls me a noob and just AFKs or does something stupid. I can't play the champions I want to play (Teams won't let me play Karma, even though I've seen pro players pick her) because they just say I'm stupid and bad.

How do I get myself out? In SC2, it was always just me vs. the other guy. Here I have to babysit and take care of 4 stupid kids every single game while putting up with all this shit. All League players seem to be very toxic and it's just a very bad environment. I don't understand because these people are not only bad, but they can't admit their own mistakes, and they blame others. I read threads in this forum and the ones in the QQ thread basically sum up League of Legends as a whole. A toxic community full of toxic players. I know I'm better than everyone here, I just feel very restricted because others are dragging me down. I've tried watching some people stream, but there are rarely any good streamers here on TL, and most of them are toxic too. Even players like Destiny are what I consider toxic players. Why do you people put up with incorrect theorycrafting and just overall bad play and bad ideas?

What do you think? I'm sure others here experience the same thing. What do you suggest I do?

In game, especially ones at lower brackets, sometimes you just can't reason with people. Use /ignore; it works like a charm.

As for getting up in elo, you really just gotta get good enough to the point were you can carry 4 idiots against 5 idiots. That tends to mean crushing your lane and making good calls/decisions. I find that people tend to listen to your calls if you aren't flaming at them and if you're doing well (ie. good KDA).

Every single game like LoL, including Dota, has problems with a toxic community/playerbase partially because outcomes are so dependent on your team.

I consider myself pretty good. I can consistently lane against Plat/Diamond players without a problem. Just when I go to solo queue, I get idiots such as wei2coolman on my team. The stereotypical League player who is a condescending asshole and also sucks dick at this game.

We had this discussion in this thread a while back like...first 15 pages or something. Basically, the thing is, for lower divisions (I'd say Gold and lower) at least, you can't simply just "win lane" as in be up ~30 cs, maybe a kill, and the tower. You gotta crush the lane. I mean, absolutely obliterate the other guy so that they're literally useless. Then you're playing a 5v4 and it's easy from there.

Also, half the game is post-laning. Are you sure you're making the right calls and decisions? Are you initiating and avoiding the proper fights? Are you getting objectives at the right time? Are you not getting caught after building up a nice lead/kill streak? Being good at laning isn't enough.

You should not be dying as much.

Honestly, the idiots thing is a perception. You have to realize that you're probably one of the people you're criticising. If you mute the four people in your game at the start and you still can't make it out of silver, it's best to accept that you're one of the ~30% of the population that belongs in silver.

the post and name fits so damn well.

Perfect example of what I'm talking about. I'm trying to ask for help and I get this idiot berating me for no reason.

Maybe being so defensive after asking for help is one of the reasons you feel like everybody is dumb and is picking on you >.>

Honestly I've found that in most cases, what you give is what you get. I thought silver was a fucking den of vipers until I had an epiphany (aka playing Katawa Shoujo) and just decided to be a bro in game. Turns out that everyone is emotionally inconsistent and will, for the most part, match the vibe you set in game. Stop thinking "I know I'm better than everyone else here" because that's what everyone else thinks and it gets you absolutely nowhere. So having that kind of mindset is solo-queue suicide.

TLDR just be nice

I am nice in game. My teammates are all douchebags like wei2coolman.
