This is a matchmaking issue. Riot now thinks 1 carry/team should be paired up with 4 people that don't know how to play the game.

Yes, this, it is their technique to make inferior players feel better about their inflated rank, thus keep playing and being carried. It also keeps dedicated, superior players, playing more because they have that many more games to climb to their desired rank, that they know they can eventually achieve. It is really quite sad because gaming companies have been patenting (yes patenting) algorithms in their matchmaking to achieve this result, gamers need to research "Engagement Optimized Matchmaking." These companies are doing a lot more than I have even described here, even analyzing your playstyle and sometimes placing you on optimal teams (when it wants you to win and feel good) then vice versa. Placing you in games where someone one on the enemy team mains your main's counter or even placing someone on the enemy team that 9/10 games bans your main champion or champions. It's divisive, deviant, scummy, and frankly not fun to be apart of.

Be happy you have people to play with, and play the game till the nexus explodes.

Feeding or inting? Feeding you prevent it from happening in the first place, and, if you can't do that, you try to fix it. Trying to help them get back into the game can be incredibly helpful. This means not taking the wave, and instead letting them farm it if you can.

If they're inting, well...you're fucked. Take the practice in playing from behind until you lose or surrender.
