soda got one guy'd... That one guy who said he barely plays is because he was recently on a paternity leave, so he wasn't playing, but soda took it as him playing mostly on other servers. Tyler1 meant that the player base in NA is small, not that people literally don't play on it. Also CN gap is referring to how CN people used to bet on league games and then throw for money on high elo games, which ties up to how he said how easy it is to snipe someone in high elo. Chat thought it was referring to how China people are better.
the cn gap is not only because of betting but because they are a plague in high elo. Wintrading/boosting for money. They have it easy since NA is small it's easier to snipe each other
I think saying they are not smurfs is because Smurf often means a high elo player on a low elo account. So most of them are not exactly smurfs, But they are people who are stuck years in the same place and DO know a lot about the game [ except for what matters, which is why they are silver-gold lol ]
Eh I'd say most of the smurfs in silver are plat. A low gold player can't really smurf in silver. So generally we're talking about high gold/low plat players. Which from a skill level standpoint, is a significant gap.
@@Microtardz find it hard to call it smurfing. I meant that most are not smurfs really, just old in the game. So they know what champs do and special interactions, they just lack the macro behind their decisionmaking. Anplat in gold is not a huge diff. One fundamental change and you jump there, the difference in knowledge between the lower elos is shallow. And smurf is a high Dia1 and above ( for me. Some would say its master and above, but they are very good 😂 ) So most of the players he probably encountered are just long time playing
Let's not forget that riot systems intentionally make climbing harder if it thinks you belong at that rank. Which means that some of those players are in fact at a higher skill level, but locked to lower ranks because the LP system deducts more LP than they can win on a per game basis. In a game where you're supposed to lose 50% of the time if things are being balanced properly.
@@mghell34 no, there is a huge gap between every tier, high gold will smurf in low silver, high plat will absolutely smurf in low silver. You have no clue what you're talking about.
@@CapeSkill it is perceived and feels like a huge difference, indeed. But it often comes to something as simple as - farming better, better recall decisions, better build per situation, better wave control, better power spike knowledge and usage etc. In many cases honing even one of the one’s you are missing will pop you up a tier. I’ve walked the road. After years of playing I decided to actually try hard and watch the patterns. just getting a bit more patient allowed me to start climbing out of my low gold perma home to low Dia in a season. I really believe that even one thing you are doing wrong will let you pop up a tier when bundled with the knowledge you do currently posses.
one of the biggest reasons i switched to dota is that they actually combat smurfing and dont giveaf if the offender is a streamer or a pro player, you can report smurfs there and they actually get punished if proven true
The trick of enjoying League again is to A. Quit ranked permanently. B. Explore new builds, playstyles, and champs. C. Breathe and remind yourself that it's a videogame, and you came here for FUN! Been playing since late season 1. I've been up and down the ladder, quit, come back, this is the only mentality that's worked. If none of that works? Let it go. Uninstall. Otherwise you've got an addiction and it's not to the game, it's to the rage it gives you an excuse to have. Choose fun.
MOBA in general require a lot of time investment to actually play the game. The learning hurdle of understanding what the champ/hero does in the MOBA pretty much decides how well you play or feed. This is just the nature of moba
I just remember I played with a friend, his first 3 pvp games "X9 mord" because no matter how I told him that a BF sword doesn't help him he just buys 3 of them
A tale as old as time. I started playing league in beta and quit about 7 years ago, just after Lucian came out. And streamers said the same thing then. The only thing that seems to have changed is people use new terms now, like "inting" and "running it down".
Been playing since season 2 and I actually take long breaks and only play fun modes for events and TFT hyper roll, game changer in how I don’t hate life
Well its not that everyone is a smurf its also true what Tyler is saying as they're not climbing maybe they've been hard silver for 5+ years but you know what just the knowledge of champions alone (as in what they do) is enough for a new person to feel like they're a smurf for sure.
Tbf about smurfs. A lot of those players are hardstuck and they just create new accounts to pretend like the universe holds them back. Usually the mmr system sorts them out real quick and they are back to getting stuck. From my experience trying WoW couple of years ago. Every single player on EU servers is like 10th smurf. So I would say situation there is way worse than with League. I guess you never see those players if you are always playing high ranks or high end content of the game.
Thing is riot enforces it. My friend has over 400 games on his main and winning nets him 15lp, losing drops it by 20. When I play, [mid silver] I get around 30 lp. His LP is fucked, so it's difficult for him to climb on that account simply cause the rito systems think he's supposed to be around gold. In a game where it 's supposed to be balanced and you're supposed to lose 50% of the time, a -5LP loss for playing ranked is brutal. So people make 2nd accounts so it resets their LP so that they can actually climb. Riot needs to sort out their LP system if they want people to stop smurfing.
@@rasmachris94 He's jsut a riot shill who doesn't believe a C-H-I-N-E-S-E company, the most M-O-R-A-L country in the world, would rig an online game. No bro. Ofc not.
@@rasmachris94Your LP gain is determined by how you do in your games among other things. Basic if you suck, your MMR growth won't keep up with your rank growth and at some point you'll get hard stuck. Good way to fix that is working of fundamentals. Farming out to minute 10 is very important, don't pass on easy kills, but maybe just call off the uncertain ones and go back to farming. Taking objectives is important, drake's, barons, crabs and heralds as well as t1 towers. Be a catalyst for those gains and you might gain MMR even on lost games. But if you just stomp on your lane opponent, and luckily win off of that because low tier players don't know how to come back, the game won't reward as much MMR. Simple as really.
Also sodas idea of a Smurf is completely different than Tyler's idea of a Smurf. Soda is probably used to seeing gold or plat "smurfs" who are either trying to get unstuck or just have fun pubstomping newbies. Tyler's idea of a Smurf is someone master+ who has no business spending longer than a day in low mmr
I mean he’s right in all of this. But streamers REALLY like to blame snipers for everything. I give it a 50/50 shot they’re right. Obviously it’ll happen to Tyler a ton because there aren’t as many players in high ELO, but in Diamond and below?! I’ve played vs streamers I’ve recognized before and went back to watch their vod (because it’s fun to see their reactions to my plays) and they accuse me of sniping just because I’m in their jungle. It’s not because I’m sniping it’s because I’m fed and can roam wherever I want. Still accused me of sniping though
Also the thing about smurfs sometimes is not true. Some people just dont want to spend their time to learn every single peace of macro and just want to play the game. There is players that are hardstuck bronze even if they played the game for 6 years, so yea they will have more experience than you but if you actually learn the macro you will be above them in no time.
When streamers complain about snipers, I always think about Tyler the creator's post on cyber bullying: "Just look away". It literally is " just turn your stream off" . Oh, you don't want to? You want donations? Well maybe have some fun with it instead of being a stuck up b about it? We are in a twitch stream to have fun, not watch a streamer complain about how the world is after them and how their "job" is so incredibly hard, and just what they have to deal with and go through on a daily basis. Oh my, back breaking work it is! They are looking at your minimap while throwing hundreds of dollars at you, you poor thing. Dirty screen peekers.
1:50 Firstly Tylers been there, he understands. It just gets easier as you grow. I've been silver gold bronze iron and borderline plat. There is a MINISCULE difference between them. The main difference is the higher elo players are more decisive than their counterparts. bronze to low plat, they cant do strategy, they cant do macro very well. They CS better, slightly better mechanics and they know what they wanna do. There might be a difference but sometimes there isn't one, they'll play as bad as the other and when there is one it's hard to tell.
Boi do I have news for you. Diamond nowadays is barely different from gold. For many Emerald vs Diamond is just a matter of soloq luck. The only real difference being that the higher the elo, the more they care about not losing LP. So they at least try. And then you have Master 0lp where you meet ton of boosted/bought accounts and get back to gold experience
If anybody is not understanding what CN gap is supposed to mean - as soda also missed the point as well as his chat. NA isnt really the "worst" region. There are servers like OCE where it is really small and because of that the general skill is usually lower. NA is not the best by far either. CN Gap is referring to in high elo where win trading is extremely rampant. Tyler1 is saying "we dont play the game at high elo" simply because there is so much win trading. The game is already won or lost as soon as champion select hits, depending which account is supposed to win by the chinese boosters.
They didn't say NA was the worst region of all, just that NA is the worst of the "major" regions, those being Korea, China, Europe, and North America. Of those 4 NA is worst performing one but that doesn't mean NA is bad at league just that in regards to pro play they are.
soda shouldve reacted harder, that's tyler1 who's reacting to him, and he's actually talking in a positive light, a lil cringe imo that is sitting there egoing
ive finally given up on the game. Literally been playing for like 4 years but cannot be fucked taking the time to learn all 100 and whatever fucking champions, of which like 10-20% are genuinely complicated and require a pretty decent understanding to play against, combined with constantly changing items/stat changes and shit. Also most champions relying on lame mostly CC/target/execute abilities that don't require much skill to hit. And the best part is this is only the tip of the iceberg. Once you add in the fact that this is probably one of the most toxic playerbases in any game, pretty much every game of summoners rift contains either an afker, or someone who is absurdly abusive, or someone who just is terrible and will die over and over thus making the game unwinnable. I've played a lot of video games in my life, but no other game has ever felt like it was stealing my time and my happiness. So many games are over before they even start and you are literally held hostage for minimum 20 mins, but usually longer. The general experience of playing is that you feel like it should be fun, but in reality only about 30% of the games are even remotely enjoyable, which is the truly sad part of it all. Underneath all the bullshit, the core of the game is fun, which makes it hard to quit it. And it's clear this is not just me being butthurt, the majority of the time you see people talking about league, it's about how terrible it is lol. But truly if you have read this rant and somehow you have not played league before but are considering giving it a go, please just don't. I don't regret much in life but getting hooked on this game is definitely a big one. Only been like a week without playing it and it is incredible how much happier I am.
The thing about League is that not everyone grasps ALL the skills needed. I've seen dudes with god level mechanics, but DOGSHIT macro and decision making. They will DESTROY lane, but NEVER take the enemy towers and turrets..... which is needed to apply a different kind of pressure, but all they want to do is fight ON SIGHT, literally EVERYONE they see.
There is 1 major thing streamers forget. If they think they get sniped, also do normal casual players feel this. Becuase... who hadn't game where people started to throw lt cuz you did something they didn't like. And it was no big deal at all. Or trigger enemy with "luck" and they start to sit on your back whole game just to kill you even if they lose. The difference is how often it happens to streames, but they keep act like we don't understand what is the problem. And... it's not only league, this is what you have to deal with as a streamer in any mp game Also there is other more annoyig reason to people start run down your games in EU, got better by time... but jesus how many run downs did I see becuase someone hate X country in EU. And it's not small number, this could happen several times a day in gold season 8.
I also love seeing players flame others not playing good, while in Iron and Bronze. All the while claiming their "main is diamond". Even the shitty players are toxic.
I did play a lot and managed to get to plat before rage quit... Players in bronze,silver,gold and plat are exactly the same,BAD. On plat they just dont take any risks and wait fo assistance but overall dodge skill, attack skill, fight iq is exactly the same as lower tiers. I did play times better games in normal, night time with asian players invading the server, than ranking games in gold and plat.
I hate the whole NA thing in league. It's super demoralizing how much people dig in on it instead of encouraging players to get better. Especially when it largely isn't the general player bases fault. It was all the older players sabotaging new people getting into high ELO. It wasn't just competitive players that did it. (However, the fact all our old big competitive players knowingly gatekept and killed competitive league in NA didn't help anything) It's just across the board. Old NA League players were extremely petty and gatekept hard and it genuinely killed the game for a lot people in NA. Where on other regions. You genuinely have a chance to practice and get better with other high ELO players. It's still toxic but there is a sense of progression. You actually have a chance to get better and aren't just be sabotaged constantly. High ELO NA League is the most depressing crap ever. Cause you know for a fact a lot of these guys could be better. They just don't care anymore and they alienate anyone trying to get better. NA Region isn't honestly that small. It's just stun locked from years of this nonsense going on and the fact no one actually enjoys the game. It's absolutely stupid that there are probably more actually good high ELO NA players on the EU servers than on NA.
I had to run it down, literally, while spouting the most offensive stuff possible until I got chat restricted... to KNOW that my account would get banned so that I could finally stop playing this game. I uninstalled 2 weeks ago. I was a player for about 12 years. My life has improved astronomically. I hope other players can find the strength I did. I shit you not I think my faith in god is what saved me.
I don’t get how Soda can be such an OG yet so disconnected from chat culture. Bro really thinks people are not trolling, if he even is able to think they’re people.
Your saying oh haha these people are trolling why believe them, is severely underestimating how stupid people can be and how much of these people are out there compared to people copying funny msgs, I don't think you understand twitch chat culture and how many freaks there are sitting there nolife perma typing the dumbest shit possible
Na is the worst of the servers bc there is noone on it the entire na server is mexico us and canada then eu gets two servers bc they have more players all of eu is smaller than the entirity of north america land mass wise but we have less players so less servers for us
K'sante azir corki hwei lucian nami senna tahm kench. Sureee "bold", nah you guys are simply good at the game. How you gonna say that when the entire world knows what Chovy is gonna pick after all his mages get banned out (Yone wow surprise). If all fails they've even figured out that you can just give Canyon Nidalee to prevent the bot lane and mid laner from choking away the games.
@@alyx669 That's massive cap. Pros enjoy the game a shit ton. They wouldn't be playing and grinding 8 hour scrim blocks into 6-8 hour solo queue sessions if they didn't enjoy it. Does that mean there isn't low moments or periods where they aren't enjoying it as much as they did before? No, of course, that exists for every competitive sport/game. It's called burnout.
There are diamond/low masters players from NA that have gotten rank 1 on OCE in 1-2 weeks. It's not a very good region but that's mainly because it has a low player population. It's the same reason NA compared to EU is a worse region. EU has something like 2.5M players or more and NA has a bit over 1M, last I heard was around 1.3M or something.
NA server is actually harder than any other server. because pros from other servers go to NA to smurf is what people dont understand what you could argue is that NA people are weak that could hold some ground.
1:30 Soda needs to learn whats definition of smurf, someone who is hardstuck and plays league 7 years doesnt make them smurf xD also yea silver player is sometimes better than gold player especially if gold player plays more games; (quantity over quality isnt a thing in league); playing more games doesnt make you better especially if you are hardstuck :
I understand dealing with loser twitch viewers gets to you and loser snipers who have nothing better to do... but don't most people get depressed at some point... I really don't understand this new meta of making fun of someone's depression? As if that's why evil people do evil things? Lot's of streamers have been gaslighting their "haters" with "this is a whole new level depression" "get therapy bud" "you need help schitzo". Not trying to be the fucking thought police but didn't this guy's best friend leap from a balcony from depression? A little respect, maybe? Why are you making fun of someone for having depression? Im confused. .... streamers can be very funny with snipers sometimes? Sometimes it's funny to "gaslight" and get a reaction when a streamer is annoyed with snipers? At the end of the day, snipers can make for good content and you're still making great money playing the game... it really is unnecessary when streamers lose their shit over a sniper because they are choosing to stream and make money.... they could always turn stream off. Greekgox carried Tyler's stream for almost a year, that started because Greek sniped. I'm so confused. A little gratitude goes a long way brother. It's just content. Why does your precious gameplay matter so much to you? You dont even like the game.
bro why did you jump into ranked before learning the basics of all the champions. yeah the learning curve is big, but to have no idea what some champions do IN RANKED is griefing edit: apparently i am the only one that played normal games until i learned the game before going into ranked
No point. People in normal games only troll and skill gaps can be so massive. Plus he is a streamer playing for entertainment not a scientist taking a calculated approach 😅

Proudly never had an alt acc ever. Been playing on the same account since day one.
1:50 Firstly Tylers been there, he understands. It just gets easier as you grow. I've been silver gold bronze iron and borderline plat. There is a MINISCULE difference between them. The main difference is the higher elo players are more decisive than their counterparts. bronze to low plat, they cant do strategy, they cant do macro very well. They CS better, slightly better mechanics and they know what they wanna do. There might be a difference but sometimes there isn't one, they'll play as bad as the other and when there is one it's hard to tell.
Boi do I have news for you. Diamond nowadays is barely different from gold. For many Emerald vs Diamond is just a matter of soloq luck. The only real difference being that the higher the elo, the more they care about not losing LP. So they at least try. And then you have Master 0lp where you meet ton of boosted/bought accounts and get back to gold experience
If anybody is not understanding what CN gap is supposed to mean - as soda also missed the point as well as his chat.
NA isnt really the "worst" region. There are servers like OCE where it is really small and because of that the general skill is usually lower. NA is not the best by far either.
CN Gap is referring to in high elo where win trading is extremely rampant. Tyler1 is saying "we dont play the game at high elo" simply because there is so much win trading. The game is already won or lost as soon as champion select hits, depending which account is supposed to win by the chinese boosters.
They didn't say NA was the worst region of all, just that NA is the worst of the "major" regions, those being Korea, China, Europe, and North America. Of those 4 NA is worst performing one but that doesn't mean NA is bad at league just that in regards to pro play they are.
Can't wait to see Tyler1 react to this
soda shouldve reacted harder, that's tyler1 who's reacting to him, and he's actually talking in a positive light, a lil cringe imo that is sitting there egoing
I’ve never seen sodapoppin before but he rubbed me the wrong way here for sure
He is not parasocial. Tyler is a person and he is not going to fanboy as he is old enough to not care
The ONLY reason why I can’t rank up, is cause my team is actually 0/7/2 and I the only one rolling with a 1/1/1 ratio.
ive finally given up on the game. Literally been playing for like 4 years but cannot be fucked taking the time to learn all 100 and whatever fucking champions, of which like 10-20% are genuinely complicated and require a pretty decent understanding to play against, combined with constantly changing items/stat changes and shit. Also most champions relying on lame mostly CC/target/execute abilities that don't require much skill to hit. And the best part is this is only the tip of the iceberg. Once you add in the fact that this is probably one of the most toxic playerbases in any game, pretty much every game of summoners rift contains either an afker, or someone who is absurdly abusive, or someone who just is terrible and will die over and over thus making the game unwinnable. I've played a lot of video games in my life, but no other game has ever felt like it was stealing my time and my happiness. So many games are over before they even start and you are literally held hostage for minimum 20 mins, but usually longer. The general experience of playing is that you feel like it should be fun, but in reality only about 30% of the games are even remotely enjoyable, which is the truly sad part of it all. Underneath all the bullshit, the core of the game is fun, which makes it hard to quit it. And it's clear this is not just me being butthurt, the majority of the time you see people talking about league, it's about how terrible it is lol.
But truly if you have read this rant and somehow you have not played league before but are considering giving it a go, please just don't. I don't regret much in life but getting hooked on this game is definitely a big one. Only been like a week without playing it and it is incredible how much happier I am.
The thing about League is that not everyone grasps ALL the skills needed. I've seen dudes with god level mechanics, but DOGSHIT macro and decision making. They will DESTROY lane, but NEVER take the enemy towers and turrets..... which is needed to apply a different kind of pressure, but all they want to do is fight ON SIGHT, literally EVERYONE they see.
hopefully Tyler1 will react to this reaction soon
There is 1 major thing streamers forget. If they think they get sniped, also do normal casual players feel this.
Becuase... who hadn't game where people started to throw lt cuz you did something they didn't like. And it was no big deal at all.
Or trigger enemy with "luck" and they start to sit on your back whole game just to kill you even if they lose.
The difference is how often it happens to streames, but they keep act like we don't understand what is the problem. And... it's not only league, this is what you have to deal with as a streamer in any mp game
Also there is other more annoyig reason to people start run down your games in EU, got better by time... but jesus how many run downs did I see becuase someone hate X country in EU. And it's not small number, this could happen several times a day in gold season 8.
Its crazy how your league rank won't matter when you retire and have zero's in your 401k.
I also love seeing players flame others not playing good, while in Iron and Bronze. All the while claiming their "main is diamond". Even the shitty players are toxic.
I love playing League but way too many people take it so serious. Like mf you are NOT going pro why so much toxicity
Nice reaction said nothing very talented
>explains how bad playing the game is
>game found
I did play a lot and managed to get to plat before rage quit... Players in bronze,silver,gold and plat are exactly the same,BAD. On plat they just dont take any risks and wait fo assistance but overall dodge skill, attack skill, fight iq is exactly the same as lower tiers. I did play times better games in normal, night time with asian players invading the server, than ranking games in gold and plat.
Ways to combat smurfing: 1. Region lock ip. 2. Raise level requirement on account for rank play. 3. Remove Account experience by planying bots.
Imagine a Steak & Eggs with both of these on at the same time, after Asmon has started LoL. We'll have every colour of the rainbow.
tyler1 soda duo-Q stream lets go
I hate the whole NA thing in league. It's super demoralizing how much people dig in on it instead of encouraging players to get better. Especially when it largely isn't the general player bases fault. It was all the older players sabotaging new people getting into high ELO. It wasn't just competitive players that did it. (However, the fact all our old big competitive players knowingly gatekept and killed competitive league in NA didn't help anything) It's just across the board. Old NA League players were extremely petty and gatekept hard and it genuinely killed the game for a lot people in NA.
Where on other regions. You genuinely have a chance to practice and get better with other high ELO players. It's still toxic but there is a sense of progression. You actually have a chance to get better and aren't just be sabotaged constantly. High ELO NA League is the most depressing crap ever. Cause you know for a fact a lot of these guys could be better. They just don't care anymore and they alienate anyone trying to get better.
NA Region isn't honestly that small. It's just stun locked from years of this nonsense going on and the fact no one actually enjoys the game. It's absolutely stupid that there are probably more actually good high ELO NA players on the EU servers than on NA.
no difference from silver and gold
i played league from beta to s3 at a gold-plat level, came back recently and bronze players are playing like gold leaguers now lol. every 1 is a smurf
Riot has made rank How many games can you q to climb so many shit kids on both sides games are 50/50 so just q alot and guarantees climb
cant wait to see tylers reaction to this video
It just makes me laugh how everyone complains about it yet keeps playing it xD dont like it, dont play it
Tyler 1 reacts to soda reacting to Tyler reacting to soda
tbh silver and gold are the same one plays more thats it
I had to run it down, literally, while spouting the most offensive stuff possible until I got chat restricted... to KNOW that my account would get banned so that I could finally stop playing this game. I uninstalled 2 weeks ago. I was a player for about 12 years. My life has improved astronomically. I hope other players can find the strength I did. I shit you not I think my faith in god is what saved me.
Sounds like you had a very unhealthy addiction to league but glad you recognized it and moved past it.
effin content regurgitators... "watch me react to your react while you react to my react of your react"
Always link the video u are reaction to in the bio pls
Nice Thumbnail
Everything about LoL is amazing except for playing the game.
Still way easier than dota 2
tyler1 saying true when he bullied ludwig for the crime of being new is crazy
I don’t get how Soda can be such an OG yet so disconnected from chat culture. Bro really thinks people are not trolling, if he even is able to think they’re people.
Your saying oh haha these people are trolling why believe them, is severely underestimating how stupid people can be and how much of these people are out there compared to people copying funny msgs, I don't think you understand twitch chat culture and how many freaks there are sitting there nolife perma typing the dumbest shit possible
Na is the worst of the servers bc there is noone on it the entire na server is mexico us and canada then eu gets two servers bc they have more players all of eu is smaller than the entirity of north america land mass wise but we have less players so less servers for us
Tyler1 needs to react to this
For real
K'sante azir corki hwei lucian nami senna tahm kench. Sureee "bold", nah you guys are simply good at the game. How you gonna say that when the entire world knows what Chovy is gonna pick after all his mages get banned out (Yone wow surprise). If all fails they've even figured out that you can just give Canyon Nidalee to prevent the bot lane and mid laner from choking away the games.
The dude who plays video games and reacts to videos for a living is quite quick to call other people losers. Imagine.
How does Faker even enjoy the game anymore...
Most pro players don't enjoy the game
@@alyx669 That's massive cap. Pros enjoy the game a shit ton. They wouldn't be playing and grinding 8 hour scrim blocks into 6-8 hour solo queue sessions if they didn't enjoy it. Does that mean there isn't low moments or periods where they aren't enjoying it as much as they did before? No, of course, that exists for every competitive sport/game. It's called burnout.
OCE servers are fine
There are diamond/low masters players from NA that have gotten rank 1 on OCE in 1-2 weeks. It's not a very good region but that's mainly because it has a low player population. It's the same reason NA compared to EU is a worse region. EU has something like 2.5M players or more and NA has a bit over 1M, last I heard was around 1.3M or something.
League is only fun playing ARAM and URF
fax, summoners is genuine torture i cannot play it anymore
Reacting to another react video ..
I want pants are dragon to react to this and then I want baus to react to that
I love league of legends, I just hate everyone who plays it
NA server is actually harder than any other server.
because pros from other servers go to NA to smurf is what people dont understand
what you could argue is that NA people are weak that could hold some ground.
idk man, I feel like the streamer constantly complaining about stream snipers is more bothered than the viewers that are listening to it.
tru
I have no pity for streamers being sniped, you put that info out there. However, I do understand the hate for League.
reactception
1:30 Soda needs to learn whats definition of smurf, someone who is hardstuck and plays league 7 years doesnt make them smurf xD also yea silver player is sometimes better than gold player especially if gold player plays more games; (quantity over quality isnt a thing in league); playing more games doesnt make you better especially if you are hardstuck :
Echochamber haha
So unbelievably wrong you have no idea
Uve brought nothing new to the conversation with this
I understand dealing with loser twitch viewers gets to you and loser snipers who have nothing better to do... but don't most people get depressed at some point... I really don't understand this new meta of making fun of someone's depression? As if that's why evil people do evil things? Lot's of streamers have been gaslighting their "haters" with "this is a whole new level depression" "get therapy bud" "you need help schitzo". Not trying to be the fucking thought police but didn't this guy's best friend leap from a balcony from depression? A little respect, maybe? Why are you making fun of someone for having depression? Im confused. .... streamers can be very funny with snipers sometimes? Sometimes it's funny to "gaslight" and get a reaction when a streamer is annoyed with snipers? At the end of the day, snipers can make for good content and you're still making great money playing the game... it really is unnecessary when streamers lose their shit over a sniper because they are choosing to stream and make money.... they could always turn stream off. Greekgox carried Tyler's stream for almost a year, that started because Greek sniped. I'm so confused. A little gratitude goes a long way brother. It's just content. Why does your precious gameplay matter so much to you? You dont even like the game.
Dota 2 is way better idk why anyone still plays this shit
bro why did you jump into ranked before learning the basics of all the champions. yeah the learning curve is big, but to have no idea what some champions do IN RANKED is griefing
edit: apparently i am the only one that played normal games until i learned the game before going into ranked
riot's fault for making a retarded game with insane expectations
Silver and gold should be the ranks for people who dont know every champ lol
Who the fuck cares
not everyone percieves ranked as high paying IRL job
No point. People in normal games only troll and skill gaps can be so massive. Plus he is a streamer playing for entertainment not a scientist taking a calculated approach 😅
I love league of legends, I just hate everyone who plays it
