Just remember to not play League of Legends. I'm pretty sure that game is designed to trick you into thinking you are having fun, but what is actually happening is everyone in team chat is yelling at you and you are probably yelling (at least privately) too.

Unfortunately, my friends play it and I'm often roped into playing it with them. My advice: The game is greatly improved if you disable all forms of interaction with other players. Chat is muted by default now, but I'd also recommend muting pings and emotes. No form of interaction is ever positive in that game.

Even then, their matchmaking algorithm seems to be designed to hand an easy win to one team and just switches up which side you're on enough times that you won't quit.

I played for years very casually and had fun +80% of the time i would say. When you have a character you like and just enjoy the playstyle. It feels good to do what needs to be done as that character.
