How do you carry with 4 blatant, openly admitted, trolls on your team? How do you carry when the Morde top feeds the Neeko top 12 kills in under 8 minutes and she's half built by minute 15? The Camille Jungle dies to their enemy Nunu jungle 8 times in 15 minutes, IN HIS JUNGLE. All the while the Heimer in mid dies 7 times to the DAMNED MALPHITE. All in the same game.

'Oh just carry those bronze games.' Yeah? With 4 people running it down, CARRY HARDER. Fuck you.

Anyone who thinks you can carry a 1v9, while they haven't been below gold for the past 3 seasons because placements put them there, can stick it up their ass. This is more than half of games in Bronze. More than half.

"Oh, well you've a 48% Win Rate, you belong in the tier you're in."

Yeah? when you've six games in a row with a double digit KDA, and the ENTIRETY of your team is double digits in the negative, none of them have any CS, and have no clue how to build... yeah, just carry harder bro.

Lol. Because you’re a KDA player. You have awful kill participation. Awful damage even on champs that should consistently be doing the most damage in the game. Not to mention your awful CS numbers.

Then you come here and moan about your “feeding team mates” when you’re not doing shit to actually win the game, but just preserve and look at your KDA and are like “omg, what is wrong with my team”.

You’re not carrying shit. You’re just trying to survive games and looking for people to blame.

Go ahead and post a replay of one of the games where your team “holds you back”. Lol. A 48% win rate doesn’t indicate being held back - it means you are an active detriment to your teams success. With a considerable number of games behind that w/r, that means you are the reason you’re stuck there (because team mates are random, unless you troll, enemy team has a higher chance of a troll).

If anything it’s harder to 1v9 in gold games because enemies have a clue, and if your team starts trolling the enemies can actually use their lead. In lower elos you just farm their bounties.

I know where you are coming from. The whole carry harder thing isn't entirely correct. Yes there are champions that can effectively 1v9. But that's only if your opponent is absolutely brain dead and feeds the hell out of you faster than your incompetent bot lane feeds their bot lane and jungler. I am a top lane main and I will often destroy my laner, but most of the time it doesn't matter how good I do because the rest of my team lost both of their lane turrets in 15 minutes meanwhile I'm trying to farm and scale since my opponent refuses to actually try and fight me. I can't go and help my team because I'll just end up inting so the best thing I can possibly do is try and split, but at that point it doesn't matter because they are so fed that there's no way for me to keep up. In solo queue it IS about how well YOU do not how well your teammates do but League of Legends at it's core is undeniably a TEAM game. So in the end, it does matter how well the rest of your team does because it does end up affecting you. It's one thing if your team just flat out loses lane because there isn't really anything they could do about it, but they didn't really feed to bad and farmed the best they can. However, it's a totally different story if they feed the enemy adc 17 kills in 15 minutes (this has happened on multiple occasions and it drives me insane). Many people in lower ELO's complain that they are stuck in bronze or silver because of their teammates and there is a lot of evidence that proves this to be true, the biggest being Ghost To Lane's series on YouTube called "Do They Deserve It?" where he places lower ELO players in a higher ELO that they claim that they should be in and we all sit back watching the video expecting to get a good laugh when suddenly the Bronze/Silver player just starts popping off and playing amazingly despite being in a higher ELO showing that they have the mechanical skill to be able to play with a team that can at least keep the game even and are able to scale back if they fall behind rather than feeding. The whole "Carry harder" thing at this point is a meme. If you on your own are doing well in game then that's the best thing you can do. Just keep playing to the best of your ability. In low ELO the only person you can rely on is yourself (which is why bot lane in lower ELO is a complete joke). You just got to keep trying to carry and if your team feeds their asses of then there's not too much you can really do about it. Just try to help them see their mistakes so they can avoid doing them again and hopefully scale up to push the game back and possibly comeback and win.

Looking at your ranked matches, you don't appear to be doing too terrible KDA wise in terms of whether or not you're just straight up feeding. Your CSing needs some MAJOR work though. People think it's all about getting kills, but it doesn't matter how many kills you get if you're not CSing and your opponents are because eventually they will bounce back and outscale you since they still have gold. Try to focus more on killing the minions and then looking to make small trades or poke your opponents if they overextend or you can catch them out of position. If you fall behind then let them shove the lane in and try to freeze the lane close to your tower and last hit minions. If you can keep four enemy minions alive and ONLY last hit them then you will have a successful freeze and the enemy minions will constantly push to you and stop in the exact same spot to allow you to safely farm close to your tower and leave the enemy either overextended for your jungler to gank them, or left trying to use their resources to try and force their minions under your tower to break the freeze. And if you're likely going to die if you try to go and kill that ONE minion that is literally one auto attack away from dying, then don't go kill it. Missing a few CS isn't worth giving them a kill. Better just to fall behind on CS than to give them an even BIGGER lead by dying to them.

just accept that you won't win every game.

How do you carry with 4 blatant, openly admitted, trolls on your team?

for starters tell us the name of the account this actually happened on. cant really hep you without seeing what happened.

and were they ACTUALLY trolling, or did they just say that? cause it could be they just said that to piss you off.

Been levelling an account on the LAN server. Trust me when I tell you, NA has got it very nice. We often like to say that we get trolls, afks and shit heads every game here in NA but that's not really true. In actuality, it happens like every 5 games or more. On the LAN server, it's literally every single game. Every game you can be 100% sure that you will get an AFK, troll or general shit head. AFKs in particular is out of control over here. It exceedingly rare to get a game on the LAN server where all 10 players play from start to finish. I don't know if this will improve once I get to 30 and start playing ranked but my experience has been disgusting so far.

I'm currently on a 14 day ban on my NA main account and when I get back, I don't think I can ever be toxic on NA again. I've seen how bad it can really get and I never realized what a sweet deal NA is. It will be nice playing games with 10 players again. It will be nice playing for a stretch without someone on my team running it down.
