What's worse... A bad play or tilting your teammate?

When playing ranked, where the goal is to win, what would you do?

Your teammate asks you to make a play you feel is very risky, or even just downright wrong. It could work, but you think there's a good chance it won't.

Option 1) You don't do what your teammate wants. As a result, your teammate is mad at you and potentially tilted for the rest of the game.

Option 2) You try it, but it fails and you put your team in a worse situation game-wise. However, you've saved face with your teammate and kept them from becoming mad at you, resulting in better play from them.

The answer to this which is painfully missing in many games is communicate.

Ping red danger, point why you think risky, I.e. low mana, like of unspent money, someone being missing, etc.

Doing nothing or not responding? Beyond tilting. Communicate, and have faith in whomever the lead is. If I'm 6/0, don't trust me because in soooooo great, trust me because I'm 6/0 and anything short of a teammate number disadvantage is probably going to pay off.

Let the champ with the money lead take the lead.
