Never give up in ranked
I just played a ranked game where our top laner quit after losing lane pretty badly. The enemy Fiora was pushing unchecked so our jungler went top lane to prevent her from taking the inhib. This opened up our mid and bot lanes to getting dived over and over by the enemy jungler. Thankfully, no one started raging at each other, we just expressed our frustrations of having another AFk in a ranked game. We were down 6 turrets to 2 but we stayed calm and didn't do anything stupid. We just played defensive and hoped our Darius would come back.
After about 13 minutes of being AFK Darius came back. He was pretty useless being so underleveled and underfarmed but we just played defensively and let him catch back up. No one flamed him, no one said an unkind word to the guy even though he provided no explanation for the AFK. We stalled and stalled and capitalized on the enemy mistakes. Slowly but surely we came back into the game. And I'm happy to say at 37 minutes and 46 seconds I last hit their Nexus and achieved sweet, sweet victory. My final score was 22/3/13. Never give up, never surrender.
