One more regular day at league of legends .....

Just want to share my experience today with some people :D

It was a nice day , and i decided to play some rankeds .... and guess what ? i won. and i won again. And got to my promos !! yeezy , promos for bronze 2 ... is terrible ? yes. Could i be better ? definitely. But that's not the point here.

I had a free win since i already was placed on bronze 2 before , but then got demoted after a losing streak ...well , not the worst thing to happen.... anyways , the first game was good. I was playing as pantheon top , won lane , things went good .... we lost the game , but was a close one. No regrets. In the second game the opponent team had a AFK , and we got 2 kills on them. They decided to remake. Don't judge them for it.

Then , when i Queue'd up for the third game was when things started falling apart.

Me as Kled top , a jax jungle , akali mid , soraka supp and lucian Adc .... seems like a decent team. OR NOT Scored first blood on teemo , i was happy , things where working :D and then LITERALLY everyone proceed to die over and over again , going' 0/4. At that point it was complete madness. Jax flaming and arguing with everyone , Akali literally blowing up , screaming in all caps and attacking everyone "WTF !! NOOB JAX !! REPORT !! BOT LANE TROLL !!" or attacking the enemy team "NOOB YASUO ! LUCKER" ( Yes , she lost to a freaking yasuo) "ZAC CAMPER !!" (when the guy only ganked her twice..) And lucian and Soraka were just calm , running down bot lane and getting killed without saying a word. That got me kinda tilted , i made a mistake , and teemo killed me..... R.I.P. Then akali and jax continued to fight each other ...... aaaand then BOOM , "Your turret has been destroyed!" , Bot lane lost first turret at 9 minutes intro the game.Needless to say that only made akali and Jax freak out even more , and somehow getting even more salty and flaming more. And now i had a jhin running up my lane , a yasuo coming from behind , and zac jumping on me. Obviously i didn't survive that.

Akali and jax started faming me afther that. i couldn't take it anymore. This was literally the first ranked i ever rage-quitted. Now , i just want to ask ..... what do you guys think of this whole situation ?

Do what I do. I go into most of my games with 80-100% chill. If I can't afford that, I go ARAM.

But that's the problem with League. Most people don't understand how strong a gold advantage is, and will not chill till the gap becomes smaller or there is a really good chance to bridge that gap. Kinda why I like Jungle.

Your job is to help your lanes get an advantage. But it's completely your call and judgement to gank their lane. If it's too risky, the enemy has too many kills, your team mate has no CC or burst, then you don't bother and continue farming with your only real worry most of the time being the enemy jungler.

You die, you don't have to go out of your way to seek revenge. You need to farm up to not fall behind.

What do we think? What's there to think?

My advice is work on yourself in these situations. Never give up and call a game lost. If things go terribly south, hunker down on your own performance. It's in my honest opinion that you only win if you improved, not if you received LP. Any LP you win through luck or not your own effort will be taken away later since you rise in rank but your non-improved self remains in the other rank skill wise. But, if you gain skills and learn/hone your personal ability, your LP may go down, but will rise again vice versa to the other scenario.

So, work on CSing, positioning, shot calling, minimap attention, etc. if you think the game won't be won. Not saying you shouldn't always do this, but like realistically, we can sometimes know when there is a good to likely chance the game is lost (Never just completely give up), but instead of trying to end it early, milk it. You're losing the LP regardless, right? Might as well get the most out of it so you can reduce LP loss in the future.

And never type negatively. It's tempting. We all have our keyboard warrior pride over the internet, especially in a game like this. Doesn't matter what they say to you or accuse you of. Even if the 0-10 Akali is blaming you, the 5-2 mid laner, because your laner roamed top over and over, with or without mia pings. Let her do her thing. There is NOTHING you could say to change her mind. Same if the scores are reversed. If you're a large reason for the loss, no amount of typing or self defense will change anything. Just mute if you can't take the abuse, or ignore it all together. Plus, on a get-back/troll aspect, nothing pisses off anger, or emotion in general, than apathy and disregard. People flame because they want, they NEED, a reaction. You pissed them off somehow, and now it's their intention to do it right back to you in some revenge-driven goal. So when people say you should defend yourself in chat, or Riot's ban system is "pussy" and discourages defending yourself, it's actually not. Flamers are defending themselves technically. You flame because you were angered, and that puts the flaming as a defensive reaction. So ignore it, you'll protect your account from being flagged (Big problem in your ELO) and you'll play better. Counter-flaming is just you going on the offensive, and that doesn't help you win, do better, or anything.

Just play positively, win or loss, afk/troll or not. A game is only ever lost when one nexus explodes. I've had absolutely ridiculous comebacks, both me being on the good side and bad side of that. Practice your mechanics if you suspect a game is mostly lost, although that is not a contradiction to what I said before, but rather salvaging from what might be a logical conclusion.

Looks like to me your team suffered from classic low elo stubbornness and lack of game knowledge. Their jungler was zac, a champion who excels at ganking early. Jax is one who is weak early (does little damage, ganking is just to come stun and out put some burst) but can 1 v 5 late game. Your mid probably didn't respect Zacs ganking ability, and she probably playing as if it was only her lane on the map. I understand this is very frustrating as a top laner. I even quit top lane to jungle since it seems like the only way to climb in low elo. My suggestion is if you want to do the same, switch to jungle and play a champion that can gank strong while being able to hold their own late. Xin and jax are good examples of this.
