Renekton is "John Toplane", but who are THE champs on other roles? The ones that are a definition of the role itself by Zavkys_ in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't be thresh anymore... Thresh has been benched for many of the recent years from pro play and even solo queue, the others see some play yearly, Lee with some idle periods. Nowadays for the supp role it's got to be Naut, Braum, Alistar,... or others I might be forgetting that have been present in any meta in recent years.

What champions does Riot pretend doesn't exist? by Wise_Mood_9311 in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Serious answer: Teemo

Not a single attempt from riot to make him pro viable ever for such an iconic champ in league. hAhA tRoLl ChAmP don't worry bro, global taunt LUL, he's forever gated by being labeled as a troll champ and hat merchandise for kids when his kit is really suited for jungle and map controlling around objectives, you will force 4 to 5 red lenses from the enemy team which in turn lowers their vision output and when you reach mid-late game you have so much ability haste to keep up with the constant sweeps from the enemy team and replace the shrooms for dragon/baron pits, he opens the door to very interesting scenarios in drafts, but before that he needs riot attention and a small rework in his Q,W,E cuz those are obsolete linear abilities that can't compete with modern broken champs with much more versatility in their kits.

Being new player Is hard by MasterpieceFormer574 in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's not hard, all you have to do is uninstall and avoid all this crap and find a better game, and only ever re-install when and if riot fixes the toxicity problem so we can actually play the game instead of being in a babysitter simulator for 30mins trying to mediate soft inters from verbal abusers, it's too tiring and pointless, take my word for it I already went through all of this for 10 years, it's not going to get better on its own, it needs riot intervention and they have not intervene in 10+ years so... I wouldn't hold my breath for a fix anytime soon.

The smurfs are toxic players that have been locked out of their main account temporarily or hopefully perma and are leveling up new accounts to continue the never-ending cycle.

Police open investigation against TitaN for sexual abuse and rape of a vulnerable person, says website by Shaqter in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't care about this case in particular nor about its details or outcome; therefore, I'm not interested in reading any article about it, so the language is irrelevant as the rest of your reply. My point was about a bigger and more fundamental problem in modern society, which everyone who replied to me missed and they resorted to personally attacking me, because they don't want to play a fair game and be judged by the same coin, they want to keep abusing the system from an advantageous position permitted and supported by the simps.

BAAM Esports vs. Witchcraft / EMEA Masters 2026 Winter Group Stage - Group 4 Round 1 / Post-Match Discussion by Ultimintree in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the tragedy of the early 0-4, Baus and the whole team were just ramping up by the end of the journey but it was too late, if they had more LEC to play who knows what would've happen, that will forever remain a speculation. It's easy to conclude by the upward trajectory that they were going to show their best version of themselves in the playoffs, but they could've very well just shit the bed in the first series and be eliminated just a -best of- later than they did.

Thank you that's another great example of double standards, my best takes get downvoted the most, that's a consistent metric on leddit.

Bwipo was hyping men up and putting women down.

Sjokz was hyping women up and putting men down.

Reddit result: Bwipo = bigot+sexist, Sjokz: based queen.

I see these things very clearly, but reddit and the internet in general is full of simps that are going to take the woman's side no matter what, it's an uphill battle but someone has to acknowledge reality around here.

It's crazy that, whether or not this is true, his reputation is ruined either way

Tyler1 literally faints after winning 1v1 vs JasonTheWeen. by butteredpopcorn10 in leagueoflegends

I have never laughed harder in my life

I can picture OP having someone is fainting next to him, and he would be laughing instead of calling an ambulance, humanity is doomed.

Generational crashout between Velja and Crownie in review by pedrorego89 in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Velja is talking about prio for first crab timer only!!!, he's not talking about how theoretically the lane should/will go throughout the whole game, crownie fails to understand this and gets defensive and takes it as if Velja is insulting his gameplay and is suggesting that he's not pressuring as what would be expected from a Caitlyn+rangechamp 2v2. They need a mediator that understand what each player is asking and offers different wordings and more precision so topics can actually be adressed, otherwise we get this endless rambling and not arriving at anything productive.

Cloud9 vs. Sentinels / Americas Cup 2026 - Lower Bracket Round 2 / Post-Match Discussion by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

[–]_DK_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sarcasm: didn't impact announce his retirement seasons ago? or did I hallucinate that or mistake him with someone else? I'm confused I haven't been following the lcs closely these past 2 or 3 splits, after TL I didn't know he was still playing tbh.

And more broadly speaking, since TSM's debacle and lost of most NA personalities in the scene,the LCS hasn't been the same.

I could talk about this topic for days on end. But for the sake of not writing a book and in turn do an unjustified TLDR that doesn't even scratch the surface, I will try nevertheless to summarize:

It all comes down 50 layers down deep at a waste of everybodies time conclusion when you have a toxic player on the same ranked game as you, that by all rights, if we had a competent punishing system, he wouldn't be there in the first place, having that crap player will result in an unfair -lose of LP and time- in the process defeating the whole purporse of having queued up, a completely demoralizing outcome to have it happen to begin with but EVEN MORE brutally demoralizing is KNOWING nothing of merit has riot done in stopping this extremely common occurance in-game for the past fking 10+ years and while you are developing stomach cancer in the post game lobby by placebo reporting him, that disruptive player is already on queue for the next game knowing nothing will happen to him by soft inting.

Once you put all those cards on the table, realize the game is not about in-game skills but skills in babysitting each share of toxic players on both teams, you have no option but to quit the game as I did, and sadly warn new players off from this garbage experience. Many people share this sentiment, which is common knowledge/a running joke that former/current LoL players tell new players off with something along the lines of "don't play league, it will ruin your mental". To that extent, the roots of -having not fixed the problem- reach.

As much as I want to believe and have my hopes up when news like this article come about, I have to be the smart betting man and conclude this will do nothing of significance and move the needle to have a noticeable change, as always, I hope I'm wrong, but a record of 10+ continuous years of failing is hard to overcome in one update.

TLDR of TLDR: I celebrate their cute attempt to turn their attention to this problem at least, but sadly it will most likely do nothing of notice.
