Like if my whole team is 5 levels lower than there team Ill wanna Surrender. Its not fun to sit there and watch the enemy trying to kill everyone on my team instead of winning. The fact that someone people just kill for fun is highly questionable and should seek help. If im 5 dragons 3 barons and 11 turrets down, I will surrender, or at least try to.

Also, here is a thing. Surrendering doesnt make you lose more LP who ever told you is dumb. We need less narutos in these games.

The reason people don't surrender is because in League of Legends throws are super common. People in the lower elos especially do not play with their lead well and tend to get cocky. The amount of times I have been down 20 to 3 and the enemy team instead of pushing objectives and map pressure seeks kills is countless. The only time I surrender is when I am down two inhibs very very early in the game and the enemy team is working cohesively as a unit to choke us out of our jungle/baron/dragon so we have no opportunity to come back.

being down in kills, objectives, etc, means nothing if they aren't pushing that advantage to choke you out from coming back. If they are simply roaming the map to get more kills to up their KDA that is your chance to win.

Sure, a lot of those if not most snowballed games are nearly impossible to come back from...but let me tell you there is more of a chance than one would expect. All it takes is two won team fights or a snuck baron and you are back in the game in league of legends. and if their team isn't working together, warding, is splitting up trying to 1 v 3...etc....you can snowball the game back in your favor.

People don't surrender because there is always a chance of the enemy team throwing. I do agree that there is a time to surrender it is better to just play the game out and try your best. Also in a ranked situation they don't not surrender because extra LP lost. It's that they don't want to lose any, it's possible they are about to be in promos, are in promos, or at 0 LP and desperate for a win so they don't want to just throw the game away without trying

Even if you are super behind, 1 kill late game is usually a gg.

The moment you think of surrendering is the moment when you lose. I have been in the situation. In that game when i was 2/7 zed and spammed surrender and i was denied, i was told to try and turn it around by a total stranger. One guy i didn't know, didn't flame me, instead encouraged me to try harder. I was tilted, i got an Easy first blood vs that ziggs at 3 mins, i then got camped by the enemy jungler and made a bad decision after the other. And yet, 1 player gave me a reason to try. I said in chat, "Pls, let me farm up to get back in the game." Our adc said "Farm now, at 42 mins?" and i said "yes....". And my team let me farm, i got back up, got an item and started getting kills. i got from 2/9 at 14/13 and actualy won the game. Never surrender. There is always a way. The moment you decide to surrender is the moment you lose.

Surrendering is for losers :P

Jokes aside I think that there are times to surrender, but also the potential for a comeback(ESPECIALLY in the Silver League) is pretty high. People in silver have poor to mediocre mid game decision making so 90% of the time they will make a large misstep that if exploited properly will lead to your team having a chance again. So the only reason to surrender is if you realize your team isn't looking to capitalize on that and won't do anything even if the enemy throws the game super hard.

TLDR: Throws are real in Silver

Being behind that much is nearly impossible. People are usually wanting to surrender with a very minor deficit. If you are feeling the need to tell people this, I'm wondering if you actually wait for anything close to what you described before you /ff.

Here is the thing. It's a game people want to play and if they say no we. Want to win.
Bring your big Boy pants and develop a strategy for Victory. And try to end the game.

I get that your a defeatist and its hard to play with Tilt. But I've never surrendered and have Come back from games where guys like Nice Henz. Rage quit over a failed surrender
