I've been playing since February and have massive anxiety playing PvP. Today I was playing a Bot game and had someone checking my op.gg (for some reason) and telling me I'm pathetic for only playing Bot games despite being Level 70 already. They then kept being toxic towards me even after I made it clear I'm not interested in PvP/competitive gameplay. I love to watch it on Twitch or YouTube, but I don't want to play it myself.

Is it really that weird? I don't see myself ever playing PvP games because I feel like after a while I would just become aggressive and toxic like most PvP players and playing Bot games is just chill because you always win and even when you have bad teammates it's not a big deal.

Hey man,
That dude sounds like a jerk. If you just want to play bot games just play bot games. There's nothing pathetic or weird about it. If playing PVP makes you anxious and playing bot games makes you feel good, then you should be playing bot games.

Most of my games in Legends of Runeterra are bot games, so I bet it's not as uncommon as you'd think. It might be hard to brush off because when someone comes at you like that it makes you feel bad, like there's something wrong with you. But you're not the one insulting strangers on the internet, you're not the one who should feel bad here.
Bot games are legit man, hit me up if you want to play some.
