A "League of Legends" player experienced a sudden decrease in Tinder matches. But, this problem is not caused by any in-app bug.

Instead, the issue started after Nathan Edmonds, the latest marketing head of Hitmaker, a giant esports jobs platform.

Although he has a great career and personality, it seems like playing "League of Legends" doesn't work for his potential Tinder matches.

[VIRAL] 'League of Legends' Player's Tinder Matches Drop?

According to Esports News UK's latest report, Edmonds shared that he rarely receives date matches ever since he added "League of Legends" to his Tinder passion list.

"I'll be honest, I don't get many matches anyway - which must be down to some kind of bug, right?" said the "LoL" gamer.

He jokingly asked why he is not receiving Tinder matches even when he is already in Gold 2 Solo Queue. Aside from this, he added that he also owns a dog named Lux (a character in "League of Legends").

But there's no bug at all. It seems like the issue is with the "League of Legends" passion tag itself. Ever since the app launched its so-called Passion feature, users have started to share the things they love to do.

These include gaming, such as "LoL." As of writing, the top games usually included in Tinder's passion list are "Fortnite," "Dungeons and Dragons," as well as "League of Legends."

But, it seems like some Tinder users don't like individuals who are into esports. You can see this in the replies that Edmonds received on his Twitter post below.
