Feeding is INTENTIONALLY dying. Not just dying.

I'm so tired of hearing every game "X person fed" "GG bot fed" "Mid noob and fed"

Let's get something straight community. Feeding/fed/feed is dying INTENTIONALLY not any time. Dying in lane while trying to just dying. But FEEDING is INTENTIONALLY.

Actually feeding is just dying a lot to a single person or more, this is because you are getting them fed by dying to them. In my opinion, if you feed, it's not necessarily your fault, I won't blame you for the loss. Intentionally feeding is the bad one.

While I understand your frustration, it's less about how many deaths a person has, and more about the number of kills/gold that player's opposite acquires quickly.

If a single player dies 5 times in the laning phase, it doesn't matter whether it was intentional or not, what matters is that his lane opponent is now 5-0 and can wreck your team.

The enemy player is fed. Your teammate fed. That's how it is.

What you're describing has nothing to do with confusion about definitions, though. You're just playing with jerks.

This should become one of the "Did you know..." tips

Well, a person is fed after getting a lot of kills. Matt is right, too. But I understand the frustration. I hate when when people say "Report X for feeding" when they didn't mean to die intentionally.

I hate too when I hear the "Report X for feeding". It drives me up the wall. In my opinion feeding is not always intentional. Champions get fed through CS, killing other champions, monsters, towers, etc.

Only 'intentional' feeding should be reported, not because someone is having a bad day or is outplayed. Being outplayed is part of the game and learning from that helps one get better. Constructive advise works a lot better then raging. I have seen many games where one lane kept feeding, but late game they caught up and helped secure a victory. One game for example I feed 4 times as Mundo to an Olaf, finally we got a couple ganks on him and I was able to catch up on CS. Its all about working as a team and figuring out how to turn a losing situation around. When I am on teams where people rage that rarely happens, when I am on a team that works together, well, I have to say I have seen some remarkable turnarounds scaling into the late game.
