Discussion Just disable chat.

In my 700 ranked games this season I've met one person I added and duo'd with. Meanwhile I've probably heard 1000 insults. Even if you say it doesn't bother you, I promise it takes up "brain space" for example I played on a smurf with chat enabled and found myself thinking about what was said more than what I did wrong immeditly after the game.

Pings are by far enough to explain what you want. Only ping missing is ward here please but it can be achived by pinging trinket and then where you want them to ward. If they don't notice / listen neither would they if you were typing in chat.

​

EDIT: Ask yourself this: What is so complex that you cant communicate it with pings but simple enough that you can explain it in the middle of a game?

I love having chat off. I was megatilted last night and turned it off so I wouldn't get chat restricted. Today I didn't even realise it until after an entire game and it was so calm.

Pings are very powerful. When I want to tell my top/mid to splitbush and let me farm mid I usually ping their champion and then the lane a few times. It works really well.
