Meanwhile your team will refuse to surrender while the enemy durdles around compounding their lead with drakes, barons, and pushign the gametimer longer while they get more and more items ahead, so you end up wasting an extra 10-20 minutes on a game that was lost when the first tower fell 6 minutes in.

Of your past 7 games, two were "decided" early-ish, five remained close well into the match.

Fell behind early, made a comeback, lost the lategame teamfight it looks like.

https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2694161019/241197996?tab=overview

20 minutes of under 1.5k gold difference, fluctuating back and forth.

https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2694143314/241197996?tab=overview

Neck and neck at 15, then red team made plays.

Eh, its not at 5 minute,s but at 10 it looks like the game-deciding fight happened. Blue team snowballed from there.

https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2694078299/241197996?tab=overview

Not major tuning point. Blue team made a bunch of small gains throughout the match until they got enough of a lead for a decisive win.

https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2693977262/241197996?tab=overview

See previous match. Blue team played better and slowly grew a lead.

https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2693526851/241197996?tab=overview

really close match for the first 15 minutes, though once red got a lead boy did they do a lot with it fast.

The players with a good winrate would like to have a talk with you.... except not really because they are busy playing while you complain on the boards.

Learn the way of the game. Kills mean nothing. Pay close attention to your map.

Look at my garen game for example:

Good CS

No deaths (enemy is weaker since I haven't gave any gold to them)

Won lane super hard. Put pressure on top lane to force the enemy to send more than 1 top so I can let my team get objectives.

Disrespected and dropped bows on them. (To tilt them)

Vision the enemy jungle so I can splitpush safely.

Got their inhibitor solo.

My team were feeding but then I drew so much stress off them to me I let them get back up and win.

Gg.

Edit: 8/0/0

If you lose 5 games in a row, someone is winning 5 games in a row. So, obviously, you are doing something bad

I'm definitely enjoying all the trolls banning intent champs when those said people get first pick... and then refusing to acknowledge or apologize for what they did and then IMMEDIATELY throwing the game and blaming everyone else. It just feels so good having every lane not look at their map and go 0/8/1 and then yell at everyone else for them getting caught out for the fifth time in the enemy jungle with no vision or backup. Additional points when you ask them nicely to stop doing it and they tell you to suck their dick. I live for games where people just... refuse to group... and throw the entire game in 5 seconds because they're obviously better and know more than the 4 other people on their team.

This has only happened in the past week too, games have NEVER been this bad and one-sided before and the closer we get to season 8 starting, the less I play because all the jackasses are crawling out of the woodwork to ruin games.

I feel the same. For the past 2 weeks, since I started playing ranked again, I’m on a losing streak every single day.

As otgers posted on the boards before - winning doesn’t even feel good. And for those that say losing games is completely only your fault - go to hell. For a reason the game requires a team play and if one of your team mates fucks up and throws the fight, it can immediately lead to defeat.

For example, a game I had just yesterday. We were winning so damn hard - 2 inhibitors destroyed. We backed to get baron a d reatore HP and Mana. Jungle doesn’t smite the baron, Ezreal steals Baron with ult with some complete luck no vision even at baron and they immediately aced us in teamfight and won the game.

This my friend is what’s wrong with the current meta right now. One mistake, one sinple mistake, which everyone can do, and it’s not to blame their skill or anythig but just smithing the wrong time or misclicking and not smiting can lead to defeat. Dying by mistake, getting caught to go ward for your team, can be a no return for your team. This is what pisses me off in this meta, because I remember turning around games as a main support by my team mates mistakes. Now it’s impossible.

As I’m speaking this, I realize that maybe the best chance of winning games in this state of the game, is by playing 5 man premades on ranked flex. Having team mates you trust and know that at least they avoid atupid mistakea may be the beat chance for the season 8. Why did Riot even enable duos in challenger? Well simply because of that. Because it’s almost impossible to carry games by going solo queue, and obviously I’m not the only one thinking the same.

Good luck everyone in your 10 gamea tomorrow. Hopefully it’s not a losing streak.

I just expect to get nowhere each day with a slight net loss. Win? Okay, here's 16 - 18 LP. Good job. Lose? Well there goes 21 - 23 LP.

Its because old runes gave armor and mr, so now you take more damage and the new runes there only a few that give armor and mr but arnt good for all champs

Miku Append1/15/2018, 7:14:39 AM2 votes

Be like me, if team goes full retard, just go and farm a lane, try to push the turret, and pray it all ends soon.... or just play some Love Live or Animal Crossing Pocket Camp while pretending your trying.

yet when pros smurf when climb with a high winrate til they get challenger. or atleast 60%+ into diamond. the reason you can't? because your not good enough. stop blaming riot for your lack of skill and git gud that's all there is to it

I just finished a 38 minute nail-biter that could have ended anytime. Three times, we almost threw because we bit off more than we could chew. Staring down the blade of a Kassadin without a frontline to protect us, I talked and pinged my teammates into playing a slow, methodical game.

Once we had stripped the enemy Nexus and grouped midlane, I watched the minimap constantly, waiting for an enemy to appear in a sidelane. Kassadin showed himself botside, and I pinged to engage. We won the team fight and ended the game.

He had just finished Deathcap.

Were you looking for a game like this one? Such matches are meant to be rare. I had to step away from the keyboard for a while because, win or lose, they are the most intense that League has to offer. I’m glad we have snowbally wins and losses now. I would not want every match to be like this one.
