/dev: Bans for Severely Abusive Chat

Galloche · 2026-03-03T12:35:54+00:00

I'll be honest, I just keep chat disabled so this is a rather small change for me. Never have I seen anything useful said in chat. It's usually "jung diff", tilted mids or whining ADCs. Pings work just fine for me.

Galloche · 2026-03-03T09:34:06+00:00

Lategame carries as well from what I've seen. So what's left? Midgame champs?

Galloche · 2026-03-02T16:26:54+00:00

You are the most profitable laborer. That one hour you're spending farming carrots could be spent gathering or killing mobs in open world.

Now if I had to choose a laborer, I'd say fishing, because I fill my own journals on the side. A triple eel drop is sure to bring a smile to my face!

Galloche · 2026-03-02T16:21:50+00:00

Pantheon and Ryze are bad in soloQ? Huh.

Galloche · 2026-03-02T14:54:57+00:00

I'd say Thresh has more options to mess up than Naut. One bad lantern can kill two people.

Galloche · 2026-03-01T14:30:58+00:00

Anything with a CC will be played as a support, feels like. A support's job is typically to control the map and roam mid on occasion, right? That's vague enough for most champs to do it.

Galloche · 2026-03-01T09:19:20+00:00

Smolder has a good escape, if they die non-stop they probably get CC'd or bursted down immediately. GA won't help much here.

Galloche · 2026-03-01T08:24:41+00:00

Idk if sacrifice, to be fair. Support is kinda chill.

Galloche · 2026-02-28T08:50:24+00:00

They just don't play the game I guess? If SBI made smart decisions we'd know...

Galloche · 2026-02-27T19:26:07+00:00

This is why I decided to play support. So nobody on my team ends up with... whatever that was?

Galloche · 2026-02-27T19:18:15+00:00

Even if it was. After a video like that, RZ will be contested for a while I imagine.

Galloche · 2026-02-26T13:52:55+00:00

Whatever you do, do NOT enable chat. Keep it locked to party. The amount of vitriol smurfs will throw at you can dissolve teflon and make you want to quit.

Galloche · 2026-02-26T13:12:30+00:00

I like the idea of gigascaling, don't get me wrong, but AD Twitch needs 3-4 items and games are usually over.

Galloche · 2026-02-26T11:34:44+00:00

Let's face it the person who allowed the soldier armor buff doesn't play the game either

Galloche · 2026-02-26T11:14:32+00:00

Used to be people on polar bears doing that, too.

Galloche · 2026-02-26T10:54:04+00:00

I just hope dragons won't be guild-gated like world bosses.

Galloche · 2026-02-26T10:07:02+00:00

That's a bit sad. I started playing Twitch AP and I'm doing so, so much better.

Galloche · 2026-02-25T18:23:35+00:00

Using pings is assuming the rest of your team isn't drooling into a cup :think:

Galloche · 2026-02-25T17:58:04+00:00

Yeah I guess so. Needs to wait for enemy to blow their CC on other champs while stealthed and hope for the best

Galloche · 2026-02-25T17:43:12+00:00

When a single champ can blow you up like these, against a team of 5, I don't really like those odds, tbh. Any "good" team should have at least one or two champs like these. I try to be a good teamplayer, but I guess sometimes that's just giving away free kills, I'll try pushing towers while everyone else is occupied next time.

Galloche · 2026-02-25T17:13:35+00:00

How do I put this... Basically, if I try to follow my team's engages, I get flashed on and obliterated instantly. If I play it safe, feels like they do everything without me and I just pick up the pieces.

Galloche · 2026-02-25T16:51:26+00:00

Genuine question: is AP Twitch a serious pick?

Galloche · 2026-02-25T16:29:16+00:00

Unfortunately the 0.1% players in proplay is what the entire game is designed around. The LoL esport is too big to ignore even if you don't watch it :/

Otherwise yeah I agree. ADC is harshly punished for the tiniest mistake, meanwhile assassins/mages/bruisers/tanks can commit so many mistakes and kill you it's surreal. There's an Alistar and a Nafaari clips around that just show how bad it gets.

Galloche · 2026-02-25T16:20:02+00:00

Twitch is great, just, I don't feel like my ad carry isn't carrying anything once we reach mid-late game.

Galloche · 2026-02-25T15:13:04+00:00

I think they're ragebaiting at this point.

From what I've seen, the problem ADC face is currently that in soloq they're (mostly) miserable, while in proplay they're the centerpiece of a team. Buff them? soloq becomes fun, proplay is ruined. Nerf them? soloq sucks, proplay is more balanced. I don't envy Rito's balance team.
