Appriciate teh free wins more.

Disagree or not, everyone get's the same amount of free wins as everyone else, but nobody appreciates a free win as much as they hate a free loss(don't know how else to word it).

So when you get stuck in a 4v5, or with a feeder/troll/whatever, just keep in mind, that sometimes it's the opposite, and you get to faceroll a team that was destined to lose.

Too many people brush this off like it was nothing because free wins are boring and free loses have more emotional impact.

Just gotta remember sometimes you get free wins to, hope this helps.

This is the problem. There shouldn't be "free wins" in ranked. Ranked matches are supposed to be "skilled" players testing their mettle against other "skilled" players. Trolls, afks, feeders and the like shouldn't be there in ranked. Ever. To be completely honest, I've actually gotten more fulfilling games from team builder than actual ranked. Its sad that ranked is the arena for trolls and such. It also just happens to be the best target for trolling because each game could be someone's promos, placing matches, or because each game is actually supposed to matter. Until Riot fixes that, don't play ranked if you can't deal with trolls.

They will never fix it. They are more worried about you calling out a troll so they can ban you.

I honestly don't see where your aggression is coming from or the point of it, my message is only meant to help players cope with the stress of an unfair loss.

This is a well known phenomenon in psychology. Negative experiences of all kinds are weighed more heavily than comparable positive experiences.

I have no appreciation for sitting through a free win for 20+ minutes. I got online to play a (relatively more) fair game, not just to sit around racking up virtual points.
