Losing games is NOT about ATTITUDE

I said "gg we lost" halfway through the game, it's not because of my attitude. It's because I observed how everyone plays in both teams and came up with a guaranteed conclusion (98% accurate so far). Your comeback: you lost accurately because of your attitude! WRONG. I lose for the reasons people lose ANY game: less gold, bad teamwork, dead nexus. You say "in low elo, never surrender". WRONG. People don't magically start playing better on YOUR team in low elo, you shouldn't expect that in MINE. When I say we lost, we lost. Then you refuse the surrender vote, and expect to win with 3 inhibs down. Don't play ranked if you think you can win every game.

Keep in mind, I don't often say we lost. Most of the time, it's close. I am annoyed with the people who can't analyze the situation properly and see that we CLEARLY lost. The word CLEARLY is NOT subjective. It means we have one inhibitor down, the enemy team is fed, they have several dragons and baron, and most IMPORTANTLY, they have amazing teamwork. We will NOT be able to ace them because they are simply better players. As I said before, people don't magically become worse players.

Also, I'm not playing for another hour trying to carry feeders just to get 25 lp.

Dunno mate, just being positive and telling my team "No worries guys, I got this, just go have some fun and try to farm up, I'll hold down base while our two inhibs are down. Just try and get some pressure somewhere so they straggle into the base instead of come as a group." worked out pretty well for me here:

Yeah, they wanted to Ff and spammed surrender votes until I aced the enemy team for the second time in our base basically 1v5.

Positivity was enough to keep them at least half heartedly trying instead of afking and that was all I needed.

sorry but you lose because of your attitude. It doesn't matter if the enemy is better than you, you are creating a negative environment. There is zero need for you to say "gg we lost", just don't say anything. You start spewing that and your team's morale will go down which will only cause you to lose any hope you had of winning. Why are you saying to your team "they are better than us we cannot win" sorry that is a negative attitude that is only causing unnecessary grief to everyone on your team. Tell me what does that even accomplish? nothing positive comes from that

i've won many games that looked hopeless for a multitude of reasons.

Some of them were pretty inexplicable to be honest

Scenarios have happened in my games where we are losing all game long, and they nearly beat our nexus to death.

We fight them off of it, and stall it out. Someone on their team makes a mistake we win a 4v5 and the game.

Then it's revealed that the "amazing" enemy team was arguing amongst themselves the entire time

Saying such a thing is pointless to begin with. No one gains anything from you saying that, but your team CAN lose any morale they had left. My MMR is pretty low for 3v3 and half of my games are lost once people decide to blame each other, and whine, instead of just playing the game. They give up before they even complete 3 items, regardless of the team compositions.

Chances are - it is because of your attitude. Also, more importantly - what is the point of saying that?

You say "in low elo, never surrender".

I say that without the first part. Just never surrender.

As I said before, people don't magically become worse players.

No, but even good players can make mistakes - and a mistake can easily turn the game around.

AND you called your teammates feeders when over your past 5 games your K/D is 25/52 lmao.

People like the op trigger me, good luck climbing if you ff every time you are behind.

I lost multiple games with 10k gold leads, if only they ffed when their inhib went down at 20, it would have been easy 22 LP for me instead of losing 18.
