How can you even teach "starters"?

When I notice people with 1500+ bot game wins still not able to last hit, I try to explain it to them but they do not response at all cause language issues or they simply just reply with a "???"/"STFU". A moment after they cry about a missed kill and shout "KS REPORT NOOB"...

I can imagine a player like this finally completing his first ranked games and landing in bronze 5 after 2 years of "hard practise" in bot games. Then they spend a lifetime wondering what went wrong.

They just have to figure things out on their own. Experience is sometimes the best teacher.

Agreed, but having friends you can talk/play/ask questions to is invaluable. That's how I started playing and it was an amazing experience. This is off-topic, but lv's 1-29 was pure bliss (this was during mid/late season 4), even playing solo. I still have a fun time, but some of the initial magic is gone with exploring new things and how the game works.

The game is ever changing and there are still tons of things we don't know. When I look back at season 4 i laugh because of how bad i was. Knowing that you are constantly learning how abilities interact and what champions are strong into a match up and so many other things is one of the reasons why this game is so great. If you aren't constantly learning new things you need a change in perspective. Review a vod, play a custom game to work on mechanics. You can keep up that exploration and have your experience continue to be magical.

I really want to obtain and play all the current top laners in league of legends which is why I'm having slightly less fun with the game. However, I'm only 2 champions away anyway (Yorick and Riven) and after that I'm going to do the same thing with Junglers this summer. I know I will have a blast (since I originally played jungle when I first got the game) and playing Rengar and Kha'Zix was always super fun for me. Also monkeying around with friends will also be a bonus as playing with friends makes the experience 10 times better.
