I leave team chat on, mostly cause I play with a few people that aren't comfortable using mics, but I can't imagine playing with all chat on at all.

Honestly I've thought about just turning chat off unless I'm playing with someone who needs it in general. I can't really remember the last time I've seen someone say something actually useful

I don't know when they added the allied chat toggle but it has to be the best thing they've ever added to the client. I literally never turn on chat unless I'm 5 stacking.

I religiously mute my team chat (but not pings) but am never really bothered by all chat. The most toxic poo poo always comes from your own side.

New KDA music video is up:

It's good! I feel like it doesn't quite hit the high of Pop/Stars, but that's also because it's not the first one anymore. It's still really great though!

I feel like they tried to make Akali's whole motorcycle thing be the neon highlight from Pop/Stars but it's just not quite the same. I also think the whole part with Seraphine would've been especially cool if she'd come out a few characters ago and they'd kept it secret who the new member was going to be. As is it was still a really cool sequence though and I do like that they gave her a bit of personality in the video with her breaking character and such. It was a nice touch

Listen buddy, we all got problems!
I became a better player after I switched off chat completely. Quite a few characters I like have very good scaling, so with it off I can concentrate on a comeback if I fall behind in lane which is made much easier without my team yelling at me for "feeding" because I was going 0/2/0 in lane after 15 minutes.

There's a CG trailer for Wild Rift out, which I really like for showing champs basically bored out of their mind when not on the rift.

I leave on all chat because all it takes is one little funny comment to the worst member of the enemy team to win a game. I don't even mean name calling, I've won games off saying "lol" in all chat when someone gets shut down

having all chat on is mandatory as singed because you have to not just win the lane you must tilt the enemy so hard that they throw it. My personal fave is double killing their top and jungler in a gank then typing "ty for prepping my double buffs". You can be sure jungler will camp top for the rest of the game and give up drag after drag for that.

No matter how one loves, there are always different aims. Love can take a great many forms, whatever the era.
I don't want to mute pings but I do wish I could force multi-pings to only show up as one - love loving up a thing 'cause I can't actually see the map under the eight question mark pings on whatever I'm supposed to be looking at

The rift was originally an actual thing in runeterra to avoid wizard wars and stuff.

Then they changed it to be like overwatch where the game itself isn't happening in universe.

Now wild rift trailer has the characters going to the rift as if it's real.

I just had my top laner say in all chat to the enemy quinn who destroyed him in lane :
"I wish I could use a slur without getting banned"

I reported him anyway.

The wild rift is canon, the summoner's rift is not canon, why is this so hard to understand.

i think i've got two favorite all chat moments:

first one was playing into a challenger player in normal draft, asking if he was doing okay he died and he replied "BLACK" and refused to say anything else when I asked him to clarify

second was after ganking a rumble mid that typed "really?" on his third death to said ganks, on the fourth i said in voice comms with friends "He's about to blast out a gamer word" and on the fourth death he typed out "n-word." like, not the slur, literally "n-word"

reported the challenger player but i was laughing way too hard to report the rumble

-Would this be better if I used poison?
A great way to tilt people is spamming. Not like spamming chat with poo poo, just spamming champ dances and the like. The top tier ones are like rumble laugh, urgot dance and especially sion dance and laugh. They will get really tilted if they're incredibly insecure like most lol players are.
If they do not tilt and also spam, then congrats, you made a friend.

Spamming that emote any time the enemy misses a skillshot or fails a gank puts them into turbo-tilt mode, from my experience. It's great.

I like to wish people good luck and have fun and when someone makes the overdone joke 'no you', I give a smiley face even though I heard it last game. When the game is over, if I remember, I try to tell someone else on either team something they did that was good and I usually say ggwp even if it wasn't all that good and the play was less than well.

Edit: I consider myself an emotional support main.

Chat is great because you get to yell at the one person who doesn't have a skin in your game and you get to berate them for not spending money on a free game.

Yeah if I get outplayed in an interesting way I like to laugh at my death and compliment the enemy player on it in all-chat sometimes.
Usually works out well.

I'm surprised at how balanced Seraphine feels in the wake of Samira. She's both fun to play and not maddening to play against. Her abilities are strong but the projectiles are slow, and two of them are at least somewhat dependent on your teammates having something to compliment them. That ult is a game changer, though. If you don't blow it right at the start of a fight it's usually not hard to hit at least 3 people, if not the whole team.

The hoverboard is wack though
