An obsession with the late game - I warned you, AGAIN.

Once again, the community demonstrates its mouth-breathing, crippling stupidity, despite every warning in the universe issued against them. So in my last game, the entire team decides to go all AD, all melee, solo target focus with no utility, durability, or crowd control to speak of. They acknowledge they know this and brag endlessly about how unstoppable they will be in the late game... IF they can get to the late game. I warned them multiple times that investing so damn heavily on the late game is not going to work. We won't have an early game OR mid game, much less a late game. No one listens because why would they, and within the first few minutes, the enemy team is already 5-0 and counting.

It's not until this point that what we lack as a team begins to even remotely hit home to the team. Then they start crying out "We can't win! We have to play safe!" _ OH, YOU DON'T FUCKING SAY!_

Isn't this EXACTLY what I warned you will happen?

By the way, they can't play safe, nor do they, because they don't know what those words mean. As I've said previously, they are an all-in team with no off switch or slowing down or safe way to farm, and with the growing lead the enemy is getting, they're going to storm every illusion of defense we think we have. Which is exactly what they end up doing because newsflash, the enemy team is built do do this! We end at 23-3, and the only reason why we even got three kills was because the enemy got stupid.

This isn't the first time it happened and it sure as shit won't be the last. Everyone not only overspecializes, but overspecializes to focus on how "awesome" their late game is, a part of the game that will never happen because they immediately get demolished in their early game, have no answer for it, and by the ten minute mark the enemy team has destroyed all three inhibitors and both Nexus turrets.

YOU THINK I'M FUCKING JOKING...

By the way, just because you think your late game is awesome doesn't make you fucking special. What ends up counting more is how far ahead you can put yourself ahead of the enemy while denying them opportunities to claim objectives, farm unmolested, or kill your allies. Not that anybody seems to think of this these days. They expect the enemy to agree to turtle up for 40 minutes and fight the enemy on their terms, and the enemy that they do eventually fight is less intelligent than a moldy coat rack.

I've had people try and report me in a few games now for "scripting" or "hacking" because I used the slightest bit of common sense, like leading my shots to take down an Ezreal that I knew would try to blink to safety, or hitting enemies that I can't see but I intuitively know where they are. Really? The tiniest amount of common sense in this game is now equivalent to fucking HACKING?!

I am getting very tired of being the support. It's like being the designated driver while everyone else consumes lethal amounts of alcohol, destroys themselves, and you have to make sure they don't try to fuck a blender, and if something bad happens to them, it's your fault, and you're basically doing this pro bono. But if I don't support, then who will? Can I expect them to do it right and not try to go support Yasuo? Every time I've left it alone recently, someone completely inexperienced to the cosmic rigors and demand of the role gets thrust into it and bot lane suddenly can't kill a single minion without dying horribly. But then if I don't support, this stupid shit happens. All the while I'm trying to practice with other champions to broaden my horizons and up my Mastery level. I'm the luckiest person in the universe if I can get even ONE of these things to happen.

I'm pretty convinced at this point that the community is intentionally self-destructive for reasons even I can't comprehend.
