Might be controversial to record in-game voice chats, but this game damn well needs it

3 out of 5 ranked games today I had a teammate, who already started venting in pistol round. One of them got quiet, after he started bottom-fragging(since ofcourse he only focused on what teammates are doing wrong more than the game) , one of the guys probably emptied his lungs after a few screams and just started writing essays in /all chat, and the third guy just kept flaming anyone who would die anywhere on the map... I hate to say it, but I fear that a lot of the community has transfered from League of Legends.

I was able to climb out of silver in previous season and actually had some quality games in gold, but this year it's just like; +24,+21, then -17,-19 etc... I've analyzed the losses and it was almost always a guy going afk, or being toxic as hell, demoralizing the whole team. I usually mute these ppl straight away, but then some of them just start sabotaging in a way to walk loudly intentionally and/or shooting in the air to give away our poisitons and so on...

It's a great and fun game to play, but in the low elo, where I'm playing at, it's damn near impossible to "climb". When on the brink of climbing up to the next elo, there's 1 or 2 matches, where someone has 200+ ping and/or leaves in the middle of the game, or people that are toxic and sabotage their team...

Since I kinda stopped caring about the climb because of all this, I'm literally only playing to finish the battle pass, considering that I bought this one, but the point that I'm trying to make is that the game is very very frustrating for solo players and gives you 0 motivation to keep playing, so I really hope that Riot starts slapping actual punishments on people, who only seem to try and ruin the experience for everyone else...
