How to be a Better Teammate

What do I do?

I do decent in my games when all my teammates feed.

I do what I can to carry.

I tell my teammates on how to improve their gameplay

They still feed even though I tell them to freeze lanes.

What did I do wrong?

I tell my mid lane Ekko to not go in on the Annie and just farm and harass her whenever she tries to farm by using his Q.

Result?= Goes 0/5 because he overextends, I ping him to fall back, then the jungle Sejuani bursts him down, Then he tells me to stop pinging and actually help him.... Also goes afk after.

Same game, tell my team to distract the Annie while I kill everyone else such as the Vayne and low health fed Sejuani

Result= died in a 2v3. And we were the 3.

Previous match, tell my mid lane KogMaw to farm under tower and let the wave push towards him

Result: HE kept trying to shoot the Ziggs even though he burned his flash, and then keeps trying to chase him until he dies. Explains why he went 3/7.

Same Game: Tell my Garen to go back to top lane every time he tried to help us out because the enemy Ekko was pushing lane hard. Also told him to farm a lot.

Result= 14 cs 10 minutes in..... Also he fed. The KDA was suppose to be 2/7/5, but he KS us a lot while he let enemy laner push towers.

Tell bottom lane to burst down the Lux and position themselves towards the tower.

Result= bot lane runs into tribush while enemy Lux lands a snare, and she fires a lazer, and our support dies.

2 games later= Tell jungler to gank my lane early because I'm going to be freezing the lane and letting the enemy laner push.

Result= he goes afk for no reason.

Same game, Tell my top laner that the enemy laner was missing. 10 seconds later the enemy Akali kills our Akali from a roam.

Our Akali blames me for "not telling her that enemy laner was missing."

Bot lane, I tell my support to fire her lazer while I burst 3 guys down at once with my ult. Discussed this for 30 seconds.

Result: Farmed creeps under tower and made me suicide as soon as I ult in.

I gave up on giving advice to players because it's usually met with hostility and the player just doing worse because they want to prove me wrong. I just keep my head down, use my pings, and hope for the best. What a shitty way to play a team game though...
