Feeding = Deaths, regardless of kills.

I played a game a while ago, where someone went 0/7, and our 20/18 "carry" was calling them out for feeding. Stuff like that annoys me because:

Feeding = Deaths regardless of how many kills you got. Yes, You're fed, You're strong, You're ahead, but you have 18 deaths. You still fed the enemy. those 18 deaths don't just disappear because you have lots of kills. Yes you got fed, but you fed the other team too. and don't get me wrong, 20/18 may be putting you infront, but it sets the rest of the team behind.

Just wanted to put this out there because it annoys me when people do shit like that. i don't care if someone goes 0/90. If you have more deaths, you need to sit the hell down and stop dying so we could actually have a chance to catch up, instead of you putting them forward.

if you die after getting some kills you also give them more money

but then, unless you are a support being 0/7 you are likely mostly useless anyway

18 deaths is unforgivable btw

I'd rather have someone useless who does no damage than someone who's dying every 2 minutes.

How much gold are those deaths worth?

Say your 0/7 and you die, giving the enemy 72 gold. That's not much. adding up the 8 times you've died, It's 1,384 gold. Conversely, if your 4/5, getting a kill each time before dieing, that's 1,500 gold.

Exactly.

Not necessarily do deaths = feeding.

For example, Proxy Singed abuses the bounty system, and every death is worth very little gold. The enemies are not getting any farm if they chase Singed. Even if they get the kill on him, they would be getting less gold/experience than farming in lane.

They're pretty much putting themselves behind if they try to kill Singed.
