In at least 90% of my recent games I get at least 1-2 feeders

And I don't know what to do about it.

I'll admit, some losses I have have a bit to do with me, but not most, and especially not these

A lot of the time I'm top lane, and there's nothing I can do about it on this little island, I'm busy denying my laner (and winning) and leaving allows him to farm up and take turrets for extended periods. What the fuck am I supposed to do?

When I'm jungler, I'll camp their lanes and even get them double buffs and first blood, and they'll still feed.

Matches like these: https://i.imgur.com/7aajxqO.png

Or these (the three man premade special!): https://i.imgur.com/Ob2c7ZC.png

Or the occasion where they feed the adc 10 kills in 8 minutes: https://i.imgur.com/m4FMIIW.png

And in the very next game, we face that same duo bot lane, and our bot lane STILL FEEDS THEM: https://i.imgur.com/0CUHBoY.png

I don't understand what the fuck I'm supposed to do.

in every game at least 1 lane will lose just based on how league is its rare when every lane just stomps and wins

Yet that seems to happen more often than not.

Also you can lose lane and not die 8 times

Okay honestly everyone goes through this at some point in their climb. You get on a bad streak of games. Best thing to do is pack it up and come back in a few days, when you probably won't get matched with these people.

In terms of dealing with these games, my best suggestion is to play your champion to its strengths.

If you're gonna play a selfish farm jungler, then don't try to save lanes or get them ahead. Just focus on strengthening yourself and only coming out when you're a level or two ahead of the enemy jungler.

Or, as an alternative, play champions that are strong in ganks that can also carry. Amumu, Hecarim, and Volibear are all really strong gankers that have enough damage to carry, while also being tanky and simple to play.

If you really want to get fancy, you can pick up Rengar or Shaco, two champions who have their kits designed to get ahead by cheese ganking with their stealth. They're really difficult to stop when they're ahead, and in lower elos nobody knows how to deal with them. Just keep in mind you're going to lose A LOT before you start getting good with them, but they have very high payoffs.

Another tip is to keep a positive attitude. Don't flame your teammates when they look like they're gonna start feeding, and don't say GG after the first few kills. Just say "Play safe, dw, I gotcha." and proceed to carry them. If they don't listen, then continue to be polite but just do your own thing.

The last thing is to avoid dying. In most of those games you have a lot of kills, but you also have nearly as many deaths as your team's "feeders". Don't ever take risks. Make sure you have a plan for everything. For example, if you want to invade their jungler, make sure you are positive you know where he's gonna be and whether you'll get caught. Yes, accidents happen, but avoiding those accidents can save you so many wins.

Expanding on this, don't gank lanes if you aren't sure you'll get anything off of them. If there's nothing to gank, don't try to force anything. Just place wards to find the enemy jungler and get ready for counterganks. Also, if you see the enemy jungler ganking a lane that's too far away, then you NEED to do something like gank an opposite lane or take an objective. Just applying pressure can win games alone.

As a final note, watch streamers and YouTube commentators for tips on jungling. Trick2G is by far the best teacher when it comes to controlling the map and taking the right jungle clear paths. If you're playing Top Lane, I wish I could still recommend SoloRenektonOnly, but he's sadly moved on to Overwatch.

welcome to league of legends. thats why I haven't played in a week and I have permanently quit the game. (i might play a game here and there but overall am done with regular play of league). fraustrating myself over a game is not worth it. I do my job in 80%+ of my games and 90% of the games i lose in is because someone died once and gave up or just started out trolling. but you know you can't blame people for not carrying feeders as if am a challenger or something. the other 10% is probably me tilted about the other 90% of the games i lose in and end up playing teemo or something and surprisingly still doing really well but as teemo can't really carry after my team feeds.

This used to happen to me when I one tricked kha'zix. There is no solution to idiotic teammates when you get them in 80% of your games, other than playing champions that can carry super hard (Master yi, Yasuo, Rengar, Aatrox {if fed with the right build 1v3 is easy as rightclicking} tryndamere etc. ).

welcome to boost of legends

bronze 5 scrubs in gold games etc etc

they cant help but go allin at level 1 die rinse and repeat untill at 10 minutes they are 10 kills behind

even if they trade kill for kill they still put the rest of their team in a bad spot because they often still dont have the gameknowledge and mechanics to carry games in any way but you are stuck dealing with a fed opponent
