How do I deal with bad players on my team?

I always say every game has 2 players and 3 bots on both teams. I get that sometimes the enemy has bad players but it's mine that are frustrating. They don't know how to play their role, what a good decision is, they probably don't know that cs gives u money or that u even get money at all. They afk farm all game missing cs because bot games taught them to play like garbage and just move forward and right click = victory.

I can't change how they play but I can change how I respond to it. What are helpful tips when dealing with this kind of teammates.

Dodge or quit League. It's only getting worse the more players leave

lay down, try not to cry, cry harder. I know this sounds like im trolling but in all honesty theres A VERY FEW % of people that actually will listen to advice or change up how they play mid game. Everyone has this mindset on how they are the most important person in the world and if they arent treated as gods in a video game theyll flame and report you for it, even if they are the ones sucking ass and losing for your team (because nowadays it only takes one fuck up aparently)

If they are a new player, you could try talking with them. The key would be talking, not ordering. Ex. Talking: Hey XYZ, I see you're a new player. Is it your first time playing Ashe? She can take awhile to get used to. Oh, btw, if you are the one to kill a minion, you get some gold from it. It can be difficult at first, but once you master it, you'll get much better at the game :)

Ordering: Dude, you keep missing CS.

It takes much more work to help out a new player but it can be the difference to having someone who actually starts CSing correctly and someone who just rage quits.

That being said, if it's NOT a new player and you see they are low on CS and/or have a few deaths... that happens. Again, you can try talking to them to see what's going on and try to help them out. They may be trying a new role, a new champ, are not having a good game, are tilted, are counter picked, etc. Personally, I find it helpful to know why a teammate is playing poorly. We all have bad games and we all play league for our own reasons. At the end of the day, League is just a game.

Mostly iam going afk and spam ff while my inting teammates waiting for miracle instead of open and go next. Dont try to chat with anyone or you get ban for being toxic,only from time to time go to lane take exp to not be detected by afk abuser Atm 1 cant carry team but 1 can destroy game so there is no point to tryhard, just move on
