Or do you really really really goto prove that you are right to some random you will never meet and even if you do you would have no clue. It's pretty sad really how common it is, and that people don't realize how ridiculous it is. I really hope all the people who this is happening too are like 15 and younger so they can still grow up. I like how League of Legends re-creates philosophy.

I just assume the people that belittle ragers have never played a competitive sport/sport in their life because people cuss randoms out daily and act ridiculous in that environment.

If you are a male your frontal lobe development doesn't even complete until you're like 26-28 so you still have time before the area of your brain which is in charge of executive decisionmaking and emotional control is fully developed. The more you exercise it, the stronger it becomes.
But don't feel bad about how you react unless you're a total jackass. Everyone gets mad and video games involve a lot of emotional and physical reactions. Playing with 4 teammates and 5 opponents that you probably don't know and will never meet is a recipe for insults flying.
Just remember, the reason you feel compelled to insult someone is usually because you're defending against something, whether it be feelings of worthlessness or insecurity or just against internalizing a loss.

Nice try psychology book seller.
Seriously though, it's not about video game. Video game is just a vehicle/a project for people to communicate. Putting 10 guys together in a chatroom for 35min, no video game allowed, and somebody will eventually insult your mama.
People rages in video games because of the competitiveness nature of these games. If you lie all your teammates and tell them that they are 5v5 coop vs computer, they will be less rage against each other and the enemy than usual, even though their winrate is basically the same.

This kayle build so dirty. 4v5 we lost i think everything but 1 nexus turret, all I had to do was sit in base and defend while akali carried the game.
the question is how they will nerf the nashors/runaans interaction.

its like in a real sport, if you lose or fuck up you swear under your breath or punch the dirt, you dont get to feel better about the situation for only yelling at the kid on the other team instead of punching your team mate.
I find the limit of my "rage" is just getting frustrated, which turns into being temporarily depressed about the game, into taking a break before playing again. I never got why people feel the need to flame, the limits of my "flame" is probably a "please play safe" or "dude chill", into muting them if they don't.
I also tend to mute people who are feeding like hell, or trolling (via their gameplay, not chat) just because it removes the temptation to get into an argument.

I would say making Kayle unable to use Runaan's would be a good start

Like, I don't care what a person types in chat, I laugh it off. If Reginald and Dyrus duo on my team and call me a shitter while playing the game well, I could care less. Meanwhile, if jackoff #7 decides to pick Katarina ("Because Kat Main huehue") when we already have a first pick Leblanc, that actually affects my game. I hope you're not suggesting my feelings get hurt? First off, if someone is raging, they are the ones with the hurt feelings, if that person didn't have hurt feelings, or insecurity they wouldn't feel the need to blame someone else, so some randoms online couldn't possibly think it was them or their fault that things are going wrong. If you get mad (feeling), and rage (feeling), online in a game, then that person is the one with the hurt feelings, the fact they hide there sad with mad doesn't make it any "manlier" just sadder. Also, if you don't think your reactions to peoples picks, thinking things will go bad so on, and especially verbalizing that, then you are completely miss informed and crazy. There has been 1000x studies about mindset and how it impacts performance. I don't know how many people high level people have said "team comp and match ups most overrated thing in solo que" and yet so many continue to not listen. All the "why?" and "..." and "i'm done" BS is sickening. Its all passive aggressive BS, the last one is like a 8 year old saying they are taking there ball home with them and the others, well if people do that in real life you are being laughed at or hated.
Except, your feeling clearly are hurt if you care that someone called you a feeder who can DIAF in chat. I get pissed in league, just like at my job, or playing real sports, and I swear in every situation, and I just get no catharsis from typing it in chat, so I don't do that. And like I said, taking the ball who is like being the Kat who goes mid when she was last pick.
Calling someone a shitter is like telling the guy guarding you his momma's so fat [insert quip].

QFT. Insulting people is a legitimate tactic. Insulting your teammates is probably just dumb, but like I said, its the least important thing for Riot to fix when it comes to in game/champ select griefing. The Tribunal is like painting a house with termites.

I used my W on a Qing Vi as Lulu (as in she was already dashing, since using it while she charges puts it on a 3s cd) and she still damaged me and cc'd me while changed into a critter. Does anyone know of other interactions that Lulu's W doesn't remove? I assume J4's EQ keeps going, same with LB's W damage, Riven's Q, etc. but I wonder if Rammus' Powerball gets cancelled. Hecarim's E is an auto so it's probably disabled for the duration.

You could rearrange them anyway you wanted pretty much. First thing I did after they did the block thingy.

Why do you keep downplaying that Kayle build? It's being used in Korea, in EU, and in NA. Why do you think EU LCS had Kayle picked today(using that build)? It's not because it's a bad build, it's because it's a legit build that people are having a lot of success with. Stop doing that for no reason besides you think the build sucks at your elo, because it doesn't suck anywhere else.
