I have one genuine question. Is it a good idea for new players, that have zero knowledge about League of Legends, to play the game? Because I’m one of those players. I’ve been thinking about playing the game even though I knew that the game was very complex and overwhelming for new players like me. It takes a lot of time to improve, understand, and get good at League for you to actually enjoy playing the game. I’m also aware that the community is pretty toxic. At least most of the community are. Because that’s what is always being depicted in the media. I’ve also heard that in low ranks, there are a lot of high rank players that creates their smurf account and dominates and destroys the low rank players, ruining their fun and motivation to continue playing the game. That’s why I’ve been thinking twice about playing the game. Do you guys have any tips to improve or have any idea whether playing the game as a complete beginner is a good idea or not? Thanks for reading!
It depends on your goal within the game.
I saw people in 6 months getting diamond, I saw people in 9 years still being silver 4 playing 100s of games each season.
It will come to you. Community is indeed toxic, but if you are 6-0 you are not getting flamed, if you are 0-6 it might happen.
In the other hand once you start to be ‘better’ and be 6-0 you might become the toxic one. It’s a vicious circle.
As new player, to improve the first things you need to do:
From there once this is settled, next step is:
The game is complex, but if you stick with this, you definitely should have fun in the beginning.
you might encounter some smurfs, whether in your team or enemy team, but to be fair it’s not a game breaking (Mostly are plat/emerald with big ego and nothing much)
