Just about every LoL player on the planet has dealt with this unfortunate situation, and despite the fact that on occasion, a gallant undermanned victory does occur, most of the time, the team with the missing player(s) usually end up on the side of defeat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">In the latest volume of the League of Lobby, my friends and I were in a game in which the opposing team was missing a player; notably, the person they probably believed was going to be their tank, whose job would have been to be a walking wall of health, meant to distract, interfere, obstruct, agitate, and be a general pain in the ass. They never showed up, whether it was due to shitty internet service, or my favorite belief, that their mom had kicked in their bedroom door, and forcibly removed the player from the keyboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Usually, in these types of games, there&#8217;s kind of this unwritten\/unspoken etiquette from the fully-staffed team, that you try and end the game as quickly and mercifully as possible; after all, it&#8217;s never fun being on the side with the AFK&#8217;er. If you&#8217;re the full team, you don&#8217;t goof off too much, you don&#8217;t spam all chat with taunts or any cocky speak, and in the likelihood you win, usually a cursory &#8220;sorry for the AFK&#8217;er&#8221; remark of some sort. The short-staffed team will make as much effort as they feel they can win, but in most cases, being a man\/woman down is usually a bad obstacle that ultimately snuffs out most rallies and attempts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Back to the context of the story though, my team won the 5 versus 4 game. Prior to the killing blows, the losing team immediately began all chatting snide remarks about how we only won because it was 5v4, implying that defeat would have been a foregone conclusion had they had their fifth, because we clearly suck without the handicap.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">For whatever reason, it&#8217;s like the losing team felt that they had all the excuse in the world to justify talking shit, because they just so happened to be on the unfortunate losing side. I did not agree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Which meant that sportsmanship was thrown out the window, and it was time to have some textual sparring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Welcome to the League of Lobby!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><em><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"More...\" src=\"http:\/\/totfc.net\/wp-includes\/js\/tinymce\/plugins\/wordpress\/img\/trans.gif\" alt=\"\" \/>*user names changed with discretion, mostly because I don\u2019t want the chance of these psychotic high-schoolers googling themselves, finding my brog, and tracking me down and going Columbine on my home.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #ff9900; font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">danny (varus) joined the room.<br \/>\nQVC joined the room.<br \/>\nWeeabooPenguin joined the room.<br \/>\nZimmay joined the room.<br \/>\nEroticRockZ joined the room.<br \/>\nNickszablowskee joined the room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: you know whats sad<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>danny<\/strong>: you for thinking i care?<strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> QVC<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">: it was 4v5 and yall still sucked<br \/>\n<\/span> <span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>WeeabooPenguin<\/strong>: you should care<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>danny<\/strong>: qq<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: picture if we had galio<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>virginia<\/strong>: Sho shalty<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>shane<\/strong>: Got my win of the day;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>WeeabooPenguin<\/strong>: and not be a big ol&#8217; *****<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>shane<\/strong>: Thanks for having shitty friends.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>danny<\/strong>: i picture us still winning?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>virginia<\/strong>: Still an L for you &lt;3<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: so<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>shane<\/strong>: I was going to report for you.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>shane<\/strong>: But instead.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: you still did pooly<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>danny<\/strong>: rage moar, it amuses me<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>shane<\/strong>: eat a **** mr.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong>EroticRockZ<\/strong>: varus you were horrid so i wouldnt talk ****<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>danny<\/strong>: don&#8217;t care<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>danny<\/strong>: don&#8217;t care<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>danny<\/strong>: keep raging<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: lolololololol<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>virginia<\/strong>: LOL.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>danny<\/strong>: it amuses me<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: varus u need cheerios<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>shane<\/strong>: lolololololol<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>QVC<\/strong>: to cheer up<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>shane<\/strong>: you loses<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>danny<\/strong>: who said i&#8217;m upset about anything?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong>EroticRockZ<\/strong>: yes we lost<br \/>\n<\/span> <strong>virginia<\/strong>: Because he triple killed you so many times.
