Salt Mines - Deposit all your anger here!

im just gonna go back to not playing on the weekends. so tired 2min GG’s then afking, or rage quits 10min in with only them saying anything the whole match, or any variant in between.

Garbage games aren’t worth my sanity.

Had a really fun ARAM game with hoku but i think it still belongs here. I got imperius and didn’t really want to stomp as hard as we had the game before. So i set a personal goal to only ever use my Q/my ultimate on the enemy butcher. Hoku was playing lili and also held unto blinds for him. 10 minutes in he was playing like a orb ming far in backline but i just dove on him with ultimate and dragged him back. After about 15 minutes he started feeding and then after 2 more deaths went afk. He was silenced so i dont feel too bad about it.

He definitely was hating life. But yeah, I can see why his account was silenced. And that was the first silenced account I have seen in a very long time, to the point I was wondering if that was even a punishment any more.

I guess it’s more the case on the EU Server. I see silenced players once a month if not even more often.

I didnt see silenced account for months… :thinking:
Previously you could ramp up silence penalties to infinity.

Now you get 2 of them and straight up ban.
Thats why you dont see much silenced people, not like pre-2.0

Ah, that explains a lot. I used to see silenced players pretty frequently, especially in Brawl, but now, hardly ever.

Now if they could just ban the freakin’ Xul who said he wanted to double soak on Dragonshire, when what he really meant was “farm minions in top lane 24/7, even though I am 3 yards away FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE ON THE CONTROL POINT!”

Somehow we won in spite of him, because the enemy team took a bad fight late game, and no, Tychus doesn’t counter Johanna if she knows what she is doing.

And of course, Xul won MVP because he never died, because he was NEVER IN DANGER, EVER!

Gah.

Thought I’d play a bit…

First game? Well, got matched with a Nazeebo that just refused to play.

WHY DO YOU QUEUE IF YOU DON’T WANNA PLAY???

I can’t seem to win a game with a Qhira on my team…

Mostly because Qhira requires a brain to play, and 95% of the playerbase doesn’t have one.

Thrall kept feeding the enemy Butcher to force a loss. Said in chat he didnt wanna play the game and just troll around.

But glad the report system doesn’t work so he can keep doing this stuff and making lots of players quit the game (:

Honestly at this point my interest in this game has just diminished so much because there just isn’t any fun in the games anymore. More often than not you have people dying repeatedly within the first 2 minutes of the game and somehow not grasping that hey they’ve died 3-4 times already maybe they should just take a step back and do something else, like soaking or doing mercs, that is more productive than their current game plan.

It just sucks because here I am just soaking out of my mind and doing camps while I have members that just bleed out free XP and somehow lacking the brain capacity to consider playing safer…

Even when I win it is often an uphill battle not because of skill differences with the enemy but often how hard you can carry a certain potato. I win 3/5 games consistently, this is basically the limit I set for myself each session, but out of that 5 games I do not one have I enjoyed in a long time. I literally can’t remember the last time I truly enjoyed playing.

how can some people have an IQ of a squirrel and map awareness of a mentally challenged person.

WHY THE HELL do you play Mei when you think she is a specialist, you refuse to peel, you refuse to tank, you do camps and you are ignoring every objective?

You dense mofo!

That was the third game IN A ROW with someone who gets a tank but refuses to actually tank!

People queue ranked without at least learning 2-3 heroes from each role…

Then I get into these matches where we have 4 dps and I have to choose between tank, healer or solo laner.

But at the highest levels of play ppl only spec into their main roles… they never flex… all gms only play one role ever

Good, now we have this guy showing main tank for the whole draft, even has tank as his role, then last picks dps.

WHY AREN’T THESE PEOPLE INSTANTLY BANNED AGAIN FOR GRIEFING?

Oh good, now got matched with a 4 man party that all of them only play DPS.

In any game this is called griefing and is punished, in hots this is acceptable (:

Why do I get a feeling there might be trouble getting caused or made

Uther. Problem solved.

And I swear the “Win 3 games” quest is a curse. The next time I want to play SL and have that in my quest log, I am going to play AI and get that done in 30 minutes so I can queue without that black cloud hanging over my head all morning.
