When you lose a game of League...

It doesn't have to ensue an excuse for who did what bad. The first step to recovery is acceptance. Everyone makes bad plays, and if you just point out other people's mistakes to disregard your own, you will only continue to make those mistakes.

Hell, it is even in the bible! Matthew 7:3 says "why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank of wood in your own" (NIV). If we actually use this (I don't care if your religious or not, its good advice and relevant), then I think people will improve overall in League.

Rather than trying to fault other people and "carry" their mistakes, start by cutting your own mistakes and encouraging your fellow Leaguers.

Yes, people will fck up, yes people will throw games, but don't go all hardcore rager on them, because in reality, it puts you at worse spot than them. Woohoo they screwed up pixelation reality, but your screwing up your own general reality by taking on a negative attitude.

Good luck on the rift ladies and gents. KCCO.

I lose a lot of games, and my only question each time is "what could I have done better?" and "Could I have helped the team comeback." I've been part of some rather surprising comebacks, including one were we were out at 30 minutes, but came back to win a 65 minute marathon because we were able to use our inhibitor turrets to keep the other team from pushing through while sneaking out a single champ to take care of their inhibitors. In the end our Master Yi tower dove both Nexus turrets while we were frantically defending the midlane. By the time the other team managed to get someone to recall we had snuck out an impossible victory despite giving up 86 kills and only getting 40 of our own. (the other team was very unwilling to press advantages.)

It's difficult to realize your own mistakes when you play. I have issues with this from time to time.
