Dear jerk of an Anubis,

I am not a miracle worker, and can only help one lane at a time. Do not yell at me for ignoring you when I am securing a kill in solo. Do not demand I help you take out a tower when our duo is getting ganked. And do not keep insulting me if you expect me to help you at all. I had over 2X as many kills as deaths, same as you, so do not tell me am I a shit player for helping the lanes that need it more when you are apparently capable of holding your own.

Sincerely,

Your very angry jungler.

I have come to the conclusion that the majority of Anubis players are jerks. It's midway through a joust match, I'm 5-0, and our Anubis apparently JUST realized I had built a stacking item early on in the game (which I had already maxed out the stacks on). He starts yelling at me about how my build is shit and you never build stacking items in joust, and I''m like "I have a decent amount of kills and 0 deaths so obviously it's working for me". He claims to mute me but obviously didn't as he kept the harassment up the whole match, including swearing at me in another language in the aftergame lobby (despite the fact we won, I killed the titian without him, and I still had ZERO deaths). I obviously reported him, but I shouldn't have to keep dealing with people like this. Could you actually ban these trolls for once; you'll never have a healthy playerbase until you do.

Sorry for the double post but...I would like to be able to play a ranked match where I don't have to report somebody on my team for harassment. Even just once. Ranked smite is the most toxic hellhole I've ever seen in any online game, and the fact that 95% of the ranked players are like that doesn't leave me with much hope that my reports will actually do anything. If you need help wading through all the reports hire me and I'd do it for free; those kinds of people deserve bans for life. It's a game people, if you can't say something nice then take a break for the day and cool off.

Related to the above:

Dear morons,

Just because I am playing a healer does not mean you are invincible. My abilities go on cooldown. I run out of mana. And if you rush into a 1v3 by yourself I am not going to make it to you in time. Being unable to heal you for any reason other than out of spite is not report worthy, especially not for being reported as AFK. (Can you people even READ?) I have submitted a report ticket to Hi-rez against you for harassment and filing false reports, and I hope you both get banned. I should not have to deal with this every time I play a healer.

Sincerely,

Your poor mage who's trying their best.

(P.S. Why is it that almost every time this happens the offending player is usually a Spanish speaker? Can I have some option to opt out of playing with them? It puts our team at a disadvantage anyway as I have no idea what they're yelling about over voice chat.)

Unfortunately, more often then not it's because they're actually LatAM players playing on NA instead of playing on LatAM North, South, or Brazil where they should be playing.

Anyways, I just found another shit clan called Dark Storm. I was teamed with an Isis and Camazotz from that clan in an Arena match. Isis stood around doing basically nothing while Camazotz kept feeding his brains out so that he ended up 6/13. Unfortunately, I was the only tank on the team playing as Ymir with a hybrid bruiser/Support build and the enemy team kept focusing me while the rest of my team stood around doing nothing instead of actually helping me out so I wasn't able to do much. Frankly, a better name for their clan would be Shit Storm.

Majority of NA Anubis players are instalockers so yeah since instalockers are 95% jerks and feeders.

and the fact that 95% of the ranked players are like that doesn't leave me with much hope that my reports will actually do anything.

While online games have a report system, some are not acted on I believe partly due to an industry attitude where companies accept some toxic things as normal.

And if you rush into a 1v3 by yourself I am not going to make it to you in time.

I have tried to stop saving people who go for 1v3, 1v4 and 1v5 especially the ones spamming Attack.

I guess they come to NA due to player server populations, NA and EU probably have the biggest ones.
Speaking of have you ever tried going EU server?

1 - Stop buffing Chiron the wrong way please.

2 - Can we fix the Chronos' targeter so they can be seen instead of being forced to use certain skins just to hit his 1 right?

3 - Where did all the NA tanks go? Oh yeah, they left the game.

The fuck

Opened my free god bundle and it showed me Cupid ( so cheap, should not give someone that), Medusa, and Amaterasu...

Both hunters suck, since I cant play them... and seriously, not a single guardian?

Guess I will have to phys support Ama...

All Chiron has is his utility and ability damage what else an the make him better? He doesn't scale hard enough


Also fuck whoever thought of having a death passive is fun for Persephone. Bastets 9 lives passive was removed so this is barely any different. It's like the only gave it to her so they can hope she can be better and that it makes up for her flawed kit.

I like Chiagirls letter form, so I'm gonna steal it...

Dear selfish asshats,

When you take a break from conquest and go into arena, be aware that there is in fact other people there.
When you sit in lobby and see two mages, a guardian and an assassin highlighted and you think to yourself "you know what would be really good here... another mage", that's where you're wrong. What the team needed was a hunter, but you waited until there were only 1 second left on the clock to make a pick, so now there isn't time enough left to make the needed changes.

The match is lopsided because the opposing team didn't have some self entitled twat like you on their team and ultimately it ended in a loss. Afterwards in the lobby, somebody calls you out on what you did, which you find irritating because it couldn't possibly be your actions that were in part responsible for the loss we just suffered. So you reply with the old "Relax, its only arena" routine.

Now listen, whoever you idiots are and yes I know there's alot of you, I don't come bumbling into conquest and fuck up your game by acting like a complete fucktard. Realize that no matter what game mode you play, it involves other people and a team composition (dailies excluded). No, you might not be able to play the class you want if you have to be edgy and cool and lock in with 1 second left on the clock, but you should have realized that ages ago. Instead try being of use, in the end it'll help alot and people won't be so annoyed with you.

Sincerely

The guy who has to deal with this shit way to often.
