Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been on a League of Legends grind during quarantine.

The U.S. representative took to Twitter to share her latest accomplishment in Riot Games popular MOBA shes reached the Silver III rank.

The congresswomans love of League of Legends certainly isnt new, but its clear AOC has been putting in the hours when time allows.

Although Silver swings towards the lower end of the League of Legends skill spectrum, its nevertheless an impressive feat for a politician whose daily slate of duties encompasses far more pressing matters.

When quizzed about whether time with League of Legends has helped her fight the haters on Twitter, Ocasio-Cortez offered a rather damning take on how the two brands of toxicity weigh up:

Inting refers to intentional feeding, a phenomenon often seen in League of Legends whereby a player will intentionally get themselves killed to spite and frustrate teammates.

Rather fittingly, the Twitter thread is fraught with those very Twitter haters hounding the representative for what they perceive as wasting time on a video game.

On the other hand, theres no shortage of players clamoring for AOC to team up with them for some games.

As for the all-important question of AOCs champion of choice, she revealed shes partial to the healer supports when jumping into the rift.

Ocasio-Cortez pinpoints Sona, Janna, Lux, and Morgana as go-to picks during champion select. She describes Sorakas ultimate ability as the Medicare for All of the game.
