If you are feeding, you shouldn't ask for ganks (Change my mind)

We've all experienced games where we die..a lot, and by a lot I mean to the point where basically your lane is over, you know it. Literally if you even attempt to walk up to a creep wave that's even a little past the middle of the lane your opponent will pounce on you and kill you..

Bad games happen to everyone, even pros (Check out G2 Caps learning ADC Op.GG if you don't believe) but when these games happen it's important to understand in that moment that you are so so far behind (i'm not talking games where you died once or twice in the first 6-7 minutes, but more like 6 times in the first 10 min..it DOES happen) you want help, you want attention from your team to help you get back into the game and that is a natural reaction and it's actually good to realize that you need help...Having said that, when you are this far behind you actually run a GREATER risk of getting your Mates behind when you Ask for Ganks or more Attention from any of the other Roles/Lanes because they are probably also behind whomever it was you were laning against so if they go to your lane and Die not only do they fall FURTHER behind the laner you had fed but they also will fall even further behind in their own respective role/lane.

I'm sure ppl may say "Just don't die that many times" or something along those lines, honestly it could be you got camped early, could be any sort of unlucky reason and I'm not trying to find blame to throw with this premise but more that when we DO recognize that we are SO behind that not even ONE gank could get us back into the lane (even with a shutdown) then it's important to almost concede the lane to the point where you kinda just have to wait and hope that your team can focus on getting the other lanes ahead to the point where it negates the insanely fed person you've fed.

TLDR: The second WORSE thing you could do is continue to play like you are Even / Equal to the insanely fed player (who you fed). The absolute WORSE thing is begging your team mates for help in trying to get you back into the game since if it goes poorly you will make them fall behind as well

Anyone who falls behind by a large amount should switch to a support strategy.. at the very least buy a redemption and heal your team during fights..

anything is better then trying to keep pushing that lane and feeding more
