This paper explores how Hungarian players of League of Legends construct their online identities as individuals and as members of a group, and what matters to them in that regard, with great emphasis on the key attributes of their online group identity. This paper also explores how their online identities manifest through interaction. In order to do this, the players' face has to be accounted for as some of the participants want to save their face and do not share some key attributes of their online identities. The participants’ answers were analysed as suggested by Brewer and Gardner (1996); that is, the similarities are pointed out between their individual online identities to discover the key attributes of their online group identity. The most important attributes of their online identities are performance, game knowledge, ranking, and even toxicity. These manifest in interaction, especially ranking, as players use ethos in interaction during arguments. Consequently, there are dominant and dominated online identities, and ranking decides whose online identity is dominant or dominated. Additionally, this paper compares the players' online identities to their offline identities. Their online identities are based on their offline identities, and they carry over certain attributes from their offline identities to their online identities. That is, players who are short-tempered or stressed in real life are more likely to be toxic in-game.
