It seems like you when you're behind there is nothing you can do

I always get that feeling of hopelessness. That is why when I see so many high elo games they surrender the second they get the chance because the game is over. Whenever you are behind in this game, there is nothing you can do. The game is practically over. My average game time in ranked solo has been 25 minutes +/- 2-3 minutes. It is really sad. Majority of my losses and wins the enemy team or my team just says "open mid" and the enemy team just free pushes to win because you literally cannot do ANYTHING.

Nope. wrong. It's called turtling, warding, farming, grouping. I don't get what the problem is?

I agree, this game is so fucking snowbally really kills the fun sometimes. If your enemy riven goes 12-2 at 15 min youre done. She can kill half your team by herself. You are right you cannot do anything except hope the enemy doesn't group and throws or something. That's honestly what I hate about this game. I know it's apples to oranges but if someone kills me five times in Counter Strike I can change my playstyle or even just be more on point and the next time we meet I can win, it's not so with lol, you will not win against someone 4 lvls higher than you unless they had a brain injury since your last meeting.

Utterly false.

The key to winning a game when you are behind is quite simply to stop playing like you are ahead and start playing like you are behind. Just played a ranked game where we were behind but played smart and turned it around.

The longer the game goes on, the less a lead can be maintained and the more mistakes are punishing, and likewise, the more the enemy is likely to make a mistake.

it is simply your job therefore to know to look out for them and know when to, how much you can and need to properly capitalize on them. Are all games from behind winnable? Hell no. But trust me when I say that far more of them then you think genuinely are.

HIGH elos (diamond 1+) people can end the game at that high skill lv

Ofc, but less than 99% of the player base is in that elo.

Only in diamond 3 and over would I ever say games start to become irrecoverable on a consistent basis.

I guess it depends on your elo and attitude of your teammates, as well as champion comp. I play nocturne most of my games and Ive gotten fairly accustomed to starting behind in games due to his lack of early presence. But once I hit 6 and finish warrior I can usually 1v1 almost anyone. Ive learned not to tilt early. I know many games my team will be behind a couple kills by the time I hit 6.

High elo I would agree, but low elo no one knows what to do with their time and they are so disorganized.

In low elo nobody knows how to do that, so you are screwed unless you want to wear yourself out begging people to listen to you _ coaching _ every game

ADC especially can't do much if their mid or jg are losing and tilting out by 20 mins. You need time to build up 3-4 items and people are already mentally quitting which leads to more mistakes on their end and a more sure loss.

Of course there is, games arent decided by first blood, or dragon or baron. If you're behind, stop fighting, stop over extending, stop making risks, people always try to win fights when behind just again and again clushing against a team that is ahed, of course you'll lose.

Instead, stay under turrets, farm, close the gold gap, only fight under turrets or against smaller numbers. As the game goes on , gold gap means less and less, so do kills, then it's up to pure skill, team comp, and strategy

Stay under turrets, yeah about that; if they can 1v2 you, then that tower won't stop them from diving you either. You got the right idea about trying to wait it out since the item cap, but while they can keep your team pinned down with just a couple people the others will take dragon, for massive stat buffs. Not to mention warding throughout your jungle preventing you from going anywhere without getting dog-piled.
