There are three methods of muting players in League of Legends, and these are through:
- Specific Mute Commands
- In-Game Settings
- Scoreboard
With Commands
There are 6 LoL commands that you can use to mute and ignore other those players that are more annoying than your high ping issues. These commands are part of the gameās mute feature and should be used only when necessary.
| Command | Use |
| /mute [summoner name] | Block one playerās chat messages for the current game session (excluding pings) |
| /fullmute [summoner name] | Block one playerās chat messages for the current game session (including pings) |
| /mute all | Blocks everyoneās chat messages for the current game session (excluding pings) |
| /fullmute all | Blocks everyoneās chat messages for the current game session (including pings) |
| /ignore [summoner name] | Blocks playerās chat messages for future matches as well (aka super mute) |
| /ignore all | Blocks messages from all players from your ongoing session for future matches as well (aka super mute) |
Using the last two commands can be very useful; at high ranks (like even Diamond or Master), itās very common to play against the same players. And sometimes, when the enemyĀ team or even your own teamĀ can be verbally abusive against you, and here is where ā/ignore allā comes to help.
Through Settings
You can mute LoL players directly from the game client if you want. All you have to do is:
- Open Settings
- Find the Interface menu on the left.
- Look for the option to āshow [all] chat and disable itā.
Itās worth noting that from in-game Settings, you can also mute enemy emotes, so this can also be the best way to use the mute feature in League of Legends.
From The Scoreboard
If youāre already in a game and donāt want to use the game client settings or commands, you can simply open the scoreboard and then mute players by clicking on their respective icons.
The more games you play, the more youāll start using this method of muting the most annoying players in your matches, as this is the best way to quickly mute players in League of Legends.
Even though itās easy to mute players, communication is a big part of climbing League of Legends ranks in League of Legends. If nobody says anything, it might be difficult to guess what the other players are thinking. Like, you donāt want your jungler or ADC may be casually farming when you need them to fight alongside you, do you?
