[2022] Dash on EG bringing back NA trash talk:"It's something we've been missing. I'm glad to have it back [...] when you consider specifically how LCS has performed, it is a lot more difficult for players in this region (at least on a grander scale) to be that outspoken"

The only annoying part is it feels like everyone in the community has, in an attempt to be more welcoming to trash talk, actually taken all the fun out of trash talk. Players SHOULD get ribbed when their trash talk backfires. Now if feels like anytime someone pokes fun at a player for doing poorly after trash talking they get flooded with a bunch of "trash talking is good for the scene, stop trying to make players not want to do it" type comments. If Jojo says he's gonna shit on EU and then loses 4 times to G2 he SHOULD get made fun of. There needs to be some kind of stakes or else it's completely meaningless. This is also why not everyone is cut out to trash talk and you need to have somewhat of a thick skin to do it. Obviously no one should escalate it to the level of personal attacks or anything like that, but right now it just feels like every response to trash talk is some meta analysis on the merits of trash talking e.g."Well he may have been wrong but I like when people trash talk". It's so f**king boring. It's so refreshing going in regular sports subs where if someone trash talks and it backfires, they get clowned on for a bit and then everyone moves on.

More like you guys at Riot have taken it away from everyone. Post a meme like ggez at the end of the game? Boom enjoy the report. Hilarious how it's okay for pros to trash talk and meme, but you best not do it in game!

You're the only one who doesn't care.

This is comical coming from the most toxic person at riot. Listening to your pathetic trash talk to EU every international event is neither clever nor funny. The fact that you even think of yourself as comedic talent, is pure irony.

I get that "ggez" is not exactly clever but it is funny to me. Most often I type that when we lose hard, which makes it even funnier (to me at least).

funny is subjective and you might think it's a dumb lame joke but it's certainly not a personal attack. Riot shouldn't be policing what's funny, only what's toxic.
