Like in the title. Maybe it’s less visible in lower ranks (I do have an acc in emerald level and its still visible although not at that scale, so I assume its the same at even lower ranks), but oh my god, you get the same people over and over again, day in, day out in high elo. What is there? People mental booming the moment 1(ONE) thing goes wrong, even if it’s minute 3. Better yet, even if some plays play out in the team’s favor, it doesn’t stop the mental boomer to stop anyway.

Some time ago, anonymous champ select was added. All it really does is prevent a part of people from dodging games. Unless you use outside tools that show you the names, you cant dodge a possible first time jungle player in an important game, because reasons, but fine. But while we are at it, why not remove nicknames from the game as well? It’s not like you change your playstyle to a better one just because you have someone who rubbed you the wrong way in a previous game. People make int lists and then they int the same player over and over again, sometimes by a whole group of players. If you should always try your best (as in the summoners code or whatever the thing that you click through is called), then names shouldn’t matter at all and you should be playing at your best no matter who is in your team.

If nothing changes about people not getting punished for visible soft inting, and in some scenarios pure inting, calling out a specific player for something that has nothing to do with the game at hand, then what is the purpose of making a ranked mode. And sure, you can say that flex queue is a thing and you can always play with your friends, but not everyone, if the majority has a friend group at a similar level of play, if they even have four friends that also play league, making it less enjoyable in a longer run.

This post will likely get deleted, like most of my posts, but enjoy it while it’s here, I invite you all for a discussion.

Honorable mention: screenshot attached from the champ select that I got in when writing this post.
