Can we please stop letting a single bad player make games unwinnable?

Top is up 3-0 and winning. Bottom is up 3-0 and winning. I'm 3-0 in the jungle. I killed the enemy Yi on an invade, one kill at top, and one kill at bottom.

Mid lane is 0-3-0, so I decide to camp there to help it get back in the game.

What I didn't realize is that our mid lane player was playing at a Bronze V level. The game became an unwinnable clusterfuck because I tried to help it, instead of letting it continue to feed. The player was dying immediately upon entering the lane, and my ganks only served to reset their bounty, making the enemy Fizz snowball to a point where he could 100 to 0 my 5-0 Udyr in a combo.

If I hadn't reset mid's bounty, it likely would have remained manageable. This is ridiculously unhealthy game play. One player should not be able to invalidate the four other players' efforts, and the winning strategy should never be to let someone feed their ass off.

i hate to say it, But i feel like as the jungler you error'd. your top and bot were 3-0 so they already shown they were competent, your mid was 0-3 so he already shown incompetence. Seriously, 3 deaths? i main Wukong top so a lot of my matchups easily abuse me and most i usually get is 2 deaths.

I think you should have ignored mid and spammed your ganks top/bot. Rotating your bot ganks into dragons and your top ganks into a potential rift herald that could possibly be dropped Mid to quickly takeout that tower, but probably more useful in one of the side lanes.

But still, Try to play with your winning lanes in the future i guarantee you'll find more success. Be quick about it too since the feeding lane is feeding you got a ticking time bomb in that lane waiting to explode into other lanes you have to make sure they're prepared.
