as my title says i need some links to videos that explain how blaming others for your own mistakes is toxic and that you need to improve on your own game.

i must explain why i need this.

friend A is playing jinx. friend B is playing thresh. enemy leona constantly lands stun on jinx. jinx rages at thresh because it appears thresh has done nothing to help the situation. thresh suggests that jinx should not stand in one spot for more than a second and should move around so she is not an easy target. jinx continuously makes the same mistakes over and over again. jinx becomes toxic more and more as she makes the same mistakes dying each and everytime leaving thresh hurt that his friend is treating him like garbage. and anything thresh says it is thresh's fault. thresh tried everything he could to save the jinx. and jinx never sees the mistakes she makes countless times.

so to help my friend since he wont listen to me i want to send him some videos explaining how to adc properly without making themself such an easy target. i cant really find much but my friend needs some serious help in not blaming others for his obvious mistake that he makes each and every game. i try to explain to him but he just takes it as in insult instead of actually keeping his mouse closed for more than 10 seconds and actually listen to constructive criticism that would probably make him last more than 5 seconds in lane. any help i can get showing my friend his issue would be greatly appreciated. i try looking around and dont find too much.

This isn't a video, but it's helped some people I know and I find it really interesting. Everyone has different strengths and weaknesses in League. Maybe you're great at CSing but have no map awareness. Maybe you always know when to go for Dragon and Baron but don't build good items. There are lots of possibilities. When you see a teammate mess up in an area that you find easy, it will drive you crazy. On the other hand, you won't notice nearly as much when teammates do something well in an area where you're weaker. Therefore, when you play, it will usually seem like your teammates are worse than you, regardless of how good they actually are. Understanding this makes it a lot easier to not get mad at teammates.

Also, tell your friend how you feel about them raging. If it makes the game less fun for you, tell them that. They can argue if you say they're wrong, but they can't argue with you about how you feel. It's a classic conflict resolution trick.

ya i try to but he dont take the time to stop a listen. just imagination your support and your watching your friend adc and he is just sitting there taking shots and just sits there and he doesnt do anything to help himself while your desperately trying to fend off the enemy laners. and yells at me for not doing anything. its a simple thing honstly. move when you cs. dont just stand in one spot while attacking minons. and he gets stunned every few seconds and dies. its only when against a leona. in rank he walked up to a ganking annie with her stun up. and i saw the annie coming from the ward and he thought since she was alone he was gonna attack. but her stun was up and when i try to warn him to stay back and just hug turret with me he dies because of the stun. and then yells at me for not doing anything. im not gonna fight a 2v3 with a fed annie. he adc's alot so i do know his capibilities and stuff. hes above average but he expects me to be perfect. on a good day i can get him fed with blitzcrank anyday.... but sometimes we get a few people who are a bit smarter and i try to coach him through and he just rages at me....and to a point he just doesnt listen to advice. he doesnt see what i see. standing in one spot and being an open target is his problem and when i tell him he gets mad as if im insulting him. i think it would take more than just me for him to see that. thats why i ask for something that could help him understand that standing like a sore thumb is asking to be attacked and killed.
