Why don't people like to hear the truth?

I know no one needs to hear what they are doing wrong during a game, but I don't know, I'm already getting cancer of playing this drug I cannot get out of and keeping your anger inside isn't good for health. If I tell you to take TP on Galio instead of Ignite it's for something. But takes ignite and goes 1/9. Also guess what. This guy goes against Teemo in lane and stays melee to fight him. Good idea. Karma with Kleptomancy buys Frozen Fang and then Banshee. Like why getting Eye of the Watchers, Redemption or Ardent Censer right? Oh and this guy went 0/8 of course. "Oh you are toxic stfu report" I feel like people don't want to learn I don't know. I shouldn't give lessons to anyone because I suck and that's it, but some basic things like that of course I can tell. I guess I'm going to delete this post because everyone is going to give me a -1 or whatever and bad comments. But hey, write your opinion please.

It's hard to strike a balance when talking to teammates, but it can be done. If you want them to listen to you then you need to find a way to communicate that will not piss them off.

If you are unwilling to change how you talk when you engage with them, you will find little success at convincing them to do as you suggest. Also, "I told you so" will just have the opposite effect.

Here's a post that goes more in-depth on how to get teammates to listen to you more.

You can't forcefully teach people, and telling a tilted person something that seems obvious will do little to untilt them.

If someone shows that they are open to criticism that's your sign to speak up, otherwise just let people be.

dude you can bring a horse to water but you cant make it drink. you can give advice, sure, but don't try and pressure them into taking it. sometimes you may be right, others your not, but in the end its best not to argue over how someone else wants to build their champ

It's not the advice, it's how the advice is given.

You're gonna lose about 50% of the games you play, and in many of those game, at least one person on your team is gonna suck. You aren't going to fix them, and you accomplish nothing by berating them.

You CAN advise them, but if you do so in a disrespectful fashion, if you're being honest with yourself, you're not doing it for them. You're doing it for you. Resist the urge to take pleasure in dressing down your teammates for their mistakes. That shit's gonna happen, move on with your life.
