Looks like the end of league of legends on Linux. Hopefully with the growing popularity we see some support in the future.

    LoL is the poster child for toxic community. The game is fantastic but it’s really not worth playing because the other people ruin the fun.

    It really only takes one person to ruin a match and you’re always playing with 9 other people (in the “main” game mode). Because of the way ranking work, leaving early because of a troll actually punishes you so you are incentivized to stay in a game that you’re not enjoying. It makes people cranky and they tend to take it out on internet strangers.

    And for some reason, only in LoL do they seem to feel free to use the most despicable language you can imagine.

    Anyways, there are other games in the same genre if you want to try them. DOTA2 is the obvious one, though I personally think it’s a worse game than LoL. The Blizzard one was really good but it was shut down IIRC.

      That’s dumb. There should be an option to vote to end the game early, and if you get a majority with at least one on each team, the match ends.

        Full disclosure, it’s been many years since my last LoL game. It’s possible they’ve taken steps to mitigate that particular issue, but it’s just one of many.
