Why Am I Losing Games?

TSM Resonance··2 votes·1,204 views

I'm always camped, every lane loses, my jungler just jacks off in his jungle without any pressure. It doesn't matter where I go. I play the best I can, and I can carry really well, but my team is always just fucking awful. What are some good champions I can solo carry with, and be safe when it comes to getting five man ganked?

You need to work on your mentality over "what champions can I solo carry with." The reason you are bronze (I'm assuming by your mindset) is because you think your team is trash when you lose. The way I look at it is, If I was Bjergsen, I wouldn't have lost that game. As stupid as it sounds, it helps to form the mentality that the reason you lost is your fault because if you played that well you still would have won.

Literally it pisses me off that I get teammates that make the game so much harder to win by making the same mistakes over and over without learning from them. If I had bots, I could probably do better than I could with them. I am bronze, but I cannot blame myself for having a good game, and still losing due to the mistakes of my team.

but you can say to yourself after every game. what mistakes did i make? what could i have done to carry that game? that way even if you lose the game you still get better

You keep telling people BS! You heard what the man or woman said. And then you blame him when the team is clearly at fault.

It doesn't sound stupid.

If you consider your play to be the reason you are losing games, you will be looking to determine what you can improve on.

If you blame your teammates as the reason you are losing games, you deny any responsibility for the outcome and refuse to acknowledge that you can improve.

I only said that because I didn't want a reply like, "Well I mean I'm never going to be that good so thats a stupid thing to say."

Because you still think that the reason you're losing is your teammates and not you. Work on self-improvement.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Form a team of friends and good players you meet. It's your only hope.

You are asking the man to got 20-0 or 30-0 every match? You didn't do it! But you are asking him to do so.

no im not asking him to do perfectly or even half decent. im asking him to ask himself at the end of every game, "what did i do wrong? what could i have done better? what did i do good?" stuff like that. you cant just say my team sucks and blame it on them, because then you never get any better

if them not going for turrets lost the game, that would be the reason you lost.

I know it's hard to believe and not what you want to hear, but if you really can "carry really well" then you wouldn't lose so many games. If a good player watched a vod where you are the carry on your team and you lost, they could easily point out what you did wrong and why you lost based solely on your decisions. Of course there are some games where you just simply can't win. If you were given a replay button in a game where you were carrying and you lost, if you replayed it enough times there would eventually be a replay where you won because you did something different that worked. Roaming to bot lane and giving your bot lane two kills can literally win a game.

If you ask a high elo player how to climb the ladder they will simply tell you to get good. Also being able to use your pings effectively is a skill in league of legends just like mechanics and decision making, especially if you're carrying.

If you want a "safe" champion to avoid getting ganked, Ahri has a very low risk playstyle because of her ult, charm, and Q movespeed and also roams very effectively and is a very strong pick in solo queue right now because it is hard to focus a fed Ahri when she's dashing all over the place.

You can't carry idiots. Because don't stop making the same mistakes. So after they kill him they kill the rest of his team quite easily. All the rest this crap you are telling him is BS!

dude he's level 17... people don't know how to play yet. jungles are still learning/just starting jungle skills. but op your mentality will not help you get better at the game, think what you can do better too not just that your team sucks. good luck leveling up

hes not playing carry champions in carry roles. he plays midrange damage/tanks in the jungle and support. no one can solo carry like that

You're level 17. You aren't even playing the game yet. You can't expect people to have an equal understand of the game at that level, and expect them to have a base skill line. There are people trying to learn the game still, as well as the occasional smurf passing through. Inadequacies happen. Especially pre-30.

With that being said, your KDA / participation are subpar, and I question your lack of runes, and choices of masteries.

TSM Resonance1 votes

I'm level 17, I'm not going to buy tier two runes...

My kill participation is off because I'm not a retard like most of my teammates and suiciding for kills.

My masteries are completely fine, for the most part.

Sometimes you can't do anything significantly better, then you lose games because of it, luck/how it went is just how it is. Ranked can become a bit of a grind in order to avoid bad luck, so keep playing if you care about getting a higher rank. Really the only thing to do is improving yourself no matter how big or small in all the areas possible, because you can't change who your teammates or or what they'll do for the most part.

Lyless, why are you commenting/criticizing the comments that are giving solid, and possibly true, advice, and not producing anything helpful at all? Maybe this person should check their play and see if they are as good as they say, rather than blaming their team. And if they seem the same mistakes happening, talk to the people you are playing with, give them helpful advice on what they should do.

Rengar takes a bit of knowledge to solo carry to victory with, but in general he does melt face right out of the box.
