leagueoflegends.comI don't get the point in disabling something that was already opt in to begin with, if people don't want the toxicity they can just disable it for themselves.

Doing nothing worthwhile but they want it to look like they're doing something to combat toxicity.

Exactly.

The irony is that the worst flame always comes from your own team, not the enemy team.
In fact it legit doesn't matter from the enemy team because it's to be EXPECTED. They want to win, so they want you to lose your mental. Your own team wanting you to lose your mental? That's the actual issue.
p.s. Sometimes I love quietly muting someone who won't stop flaming in chat (team-mate or opponent), only to catch a clue that they're still typing, so I respond "Oh so-and-so is still typing? I muted them a long time ago." The reactions you get are priceless.

They do acknowledge toxicity mostly comes from your own team but they can't just disable team chat, that would cause a lot more problems.

I agree it would hinder team-work a lot, especially if you're not duo with someone. I'm not in favor of disabling team chat. Especially since I learned to mute people at the first sign of toxicity, usually giving them 1 warning first.
As a jungle main, I can't tell you how refreshing /mute all is. After years of never muting anyone, I tried it, and the chatbox is literally filled with ONLY useful info. That caught me by surprise. It's a whoooole different experience communicating only with pings.
I don't do /mute all anymore like a lot of junglers still do, but I really enjoyed how peaceful it was back when I did. Was nice to take a break from the bad advice and raging team-mates "jng diff no ganks I'm 0-4 now" when I'm getting viable lanes further ahead, lol.

Pretty lame change if they follow through with it. Especially in ARAM dicking around in all chat is half the fun.

Brain dead decision that’s even worse when it comes to aram. Let players talk to the other team!

I've made so many friends with enemy team and queued up with them after.. this is a fucking awful idea.

I met a friend of mine through league and now he has become one of my best friends all because during a ranked game we had a discussion while having fun. Without the ability to talk to the other team and tell them if they did well or really had a cool play, and possibly requiring with them after might make me quit.

Real kicker to ARAM, would rather chat with the enemies that my team most the time. Friendly bants and great dancing.
26
I play almost entitely ARAM and love making champion related puns witb the enemy team. This kind of makes me sad :(
5
I can kinda see why they would do something like this for ranked but doing it for all modes is just baffling
24
Gonna miss all you ragers, jokers, whiners, trolls, pervs, shittalkers,etc... I think I missed some, but although I never said anything, I always had a laugh at all chat when those guys showed up.
gg ez
14
Don't worry, most of them were probably on your team anyway, they aren't going anywhere.

It's way more fun when the entire game can witness the shit show though. But yes, they'll be there haha
4
I actually think team chat will get worse, because they will need to vent somewhere.
2
gaming companies and removing ways to communicate, name a better duo
9
Little kids and using said ways of communication to be assholes.
1†
Weird how ppl say that had any positive all chat.
The only shit I read in all chat are question marks, gg ez, nice tutorial and so on.
And ofc the losers with their copy past shit for the aftergame chat.
9
i guess it is done to get rid of the issue of people getting reported for saying ez etc. but it will not resolve it. people will get reported for not finishing the nexus, spamming their mastery and such. the mentality of these players will never change.
5
Legit met a cool few people in ARAM all chat and we still play together. :(
gg ez lmfao try harder next time :(
4
I could be old but is it possible the game is just filled with too many kids these days? Only explanation I think of

Met all of my current ARAM buddies through all chat. 99% of the time it's my team flaming eachother.
Late night ARAM All chat is an institution. Enemy players frequently compliment good plays etc.
No more scheduling 1v1's in a 40min ARAM to prove who the top dog is? Maaaan why
2
My personal favourite is the enemy squishy begging for mercy when i use 100% of my full AP Malphite R's on them... i will miss this..
1
Noone ever misses AP malphite players though

Can't stop, won't stop.

This is just one more nail in the coffin, it is sooo stupid to remove that from aram since it is a major part of the player's experience. I'd argue they only need to remove it for ranked only not even normals. What the fuck riot running away from your problems is not fixing it
1
yeah they just leave it for troll modes like normal or ARAM , ranked is useless you dont log in to chat , and if you do , you are playing wrong

I don’t understand why they don’t just consider this for solo/duo ranked. All chat is one of the mainstays of late night Aram tbh.
I thought the same thing. As long as ARAM is a neglected "for fun" mode, might as well let people all chat.
Can always mute someone easily by holding tab and clicking the speech bubble (as we all know).
