Doing good but still losing?

Usually everyday I like to go on my main and get wins with him, today was different I started losing a lot of games despite doing so good. I mean should I accept it as a loss, or a personal win or simply that the path to mastering my main just expanded? It’s more of like a bittersweet thing u did good but u lost.

So when u do good in a game but still lose what do u think of it?

I think its a game and there is going to be winners and losers. Sometimes you do good and lose, sometimes you do bad and win, sometimes you do good and win, sometimes you do bad and lose.

If you think of it from both sides, if you are stomping the enemy laner, the enemy team will think they are bad. If you are getting stomped, then your team will think your bad.

Problem is, what is good and bad? Theres more to it than just kills. Look at singed players. They literally do not care about dieing as they proxy farm along. They will eventually have towers be taken time after time after time, and what can the enemy do about it except chase him off like some fly buzzing around? Eventually you wont be able to kill him before he kills you, and so you need more and more people following him around just so you have minions to take towers with.

Its stuff like that, that i think of when people ask this question.

Exactly something I was looking for, it’s not usually decided in K/D/A it’s more than that but idk what it is, objective taking?? Maybe, that’s what amazes me is that ppl can still do odd things and win

One major major thing, that can not be stressed enough, is wave management.

Look in nearly every instructional video of a person explaining what they are doing while playing a champ and you will 99% of the time find them talking about their wave management.

Singed manages waves by making sure there is no wave for example.

I have actually won a game while 30 kills behind simply because my team had EVERY lane so darn pushed with 2 or 3 Zz'Rot portals and 2 i think Banner of Commands sitting in one or multiple lanes. Thus meaning if they dont split to answer that, they lose towers. Towers still take good chunks of damage. After 2-4 of us were setting up mid and bott lane, the others were pushing top, then we all went top because they needed their entire team to take our team.... which means bott is free to have minions self push. Heck, they couldnt even go and get baron because they were trying so hard to keep up with the waves lol.

Ok sure but why1 votes

I think, "Oh boy. Time to get feeders in my next game until I reach Silver 4, again." Because it's happened like, 19 times, now.

You should look at my non-urf match history i know how you feel.

Every team has 1-2 good players and 1-3 badplayers. Even if they do well that game chances are they probably still suck. I think SoloRenek said that.

I tax my brain, looking for the bullshit I did that cost us the game. I've reached the point where I realized that my teammates are morons most of the time so I shouldn't expect them to know how to win anyway. If I lost, it's always because I did something wrong or something I didn't do with my lead. Last two patches have been good to me(bounty changes). It's possible to solo carry again so I know now when I lose with a lead. it's because I didn't carry properly.
