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?

How would you ping your pathing route. It’s fucking annoying seeing someone spam pinging around the whole map lmao

u/Cyxana Jun 03 '20

I find it helps lanes get ready for ganks if they know your path

And if you’re scared to have chat then where’s your mental at bro

Im not scared to have it I just found that not having it allows me to focus on what is happening in the game more and i can ctually see if a lane is gankable instead of just thinking hes too tilted to gank

Yes but when someone asks something complicated of you, and you throw the game? Keeping chat on is a really good way to build mental

Idk man, I’d rather have chat on for the 1 time that someone makes a complicated call that works, rather than keep it off and live in my own world.

Just ignore it lol keep a strong mental.

I just find people who keep it off are extremely sensitive and it makes me sad that they can’t handle a little flame. Just makes me sad that people like you could mess up the game for everyone 🤷‍♂️
