"I'm Done"

This statement is widely heard all too often. Karma last game, I wouldn't give her blue and then she would say... Karma: "I'm done, fucking troll Udyr"... and of course I was glad she didn't get it, because she died to Akali a minute later (basically every time). The Blitz. Cait pings for him to fall back because Akali is roaming top and bottom constantly for easy kills because she is ahead and they don't have a sweeper yet. Blitz dies and says "I'm done, Cait wtf are you doing not helping me?"... We lost, and yet what I didn't like was how much of a negative attitude these players had. Some people don't seem to realize that being negative invites others to be negative. No you don't have to turn around and give them a taste of their own medicine, but certainly when you are already frustrated while losing, you are much more tempted to. Look, people who say "I'm done" " or wtf gd troll" or anything negative, I understand how you feel when losing and I know it's frustrating, but outright flaming your own team doesn't help anything. If you were playing with friends, would you be yelling at them and telling them to quit and uninstall and be calling them trolls or anything bad? I think not. Have some common respect for others and at least try to be neutral, and who knows, you may find yourself in more games with turnarounds where you normally would have lost. A bad attitude alone can easily change the tide of the game, as it's very distracting, and tends to bring about your worst gameplay.

tl;dr : Negative or bad attitudes need to be halted, as they don't help anything. At least stay neutral, and try to maintain a calm state. Just breathe

funny. it seems you are the toxic player. The game you mention clearly shows that you threw the game the worst. You don't give blue to mid karma? that's ok. what do you use it for? you havee the LEAST damage to champions for udyr the "jungler". You barely influence the game with your ridiculous assists/kills. The lowest contributing stats next to gnar.

Please stop playing a jungler. You are toxic to the team and will lose more games than ever carry them.

No one should play mid without knowing how to win their lane without blue. You should always be prepared to be at a disadvantage in lane. Some junglers, like Pantheon or Sejuani, need the second or third blue before their mana issues level out. While I was maining mid with Lux, I learned first thing how to manage my mana without the benefit of blue. If I got it? Great, now I can go nuts for a while. If not? Doesn't set me back anything and I keep on.

As far as the "I'm done" folks, I've had too many matches where folks started on like that, with the general "We're going to lose" or "We can't win now." If no one rallied them, yeah it was often times a loss. But just as many times, I got folks to get their head back in the game and we won. The game is never over until you see the Victory or Defeat splash screen.

or maybe... just maybe... she died because she didn't have blue buff and couldn't get that last cast off because she was oom. insert troll face here

While it's understandable in a way... it's also not. Like... if a person is doing bad... maybe they need the buff more than you? Sure, there is a risk of the enemy killing them and getting the buff, but what were you really going to do with it? I feel like if a person is doing bad, they need all the help they can get.

It's pretty troll to avoid helping them or giving them buffs because you have judged them as being bad and not deserving of any help. Everybody has bad games, and it doesn't help when your own team is keeping you down.

I typically get over 10 kills a game, but occasionally I have one of those off games where I end up like 5/7/3, and every one of those games my team is telling me I suck and I'm doing everything wrong, etc... But if they only knew that I don't typically play that bad and it's just bad luck or unfortunate circumstances that lead me to doing badly in that particular game. Denying someone buffs that could help them turn their game around is just completely lacking faith in your team and you are doomed to lose.
