I am always the last person on my team to hit Yes on the surrender vote.

When you are behind in a game and your solution is to FF; rethink that strategy. Now before I get all those downvotes understand this. Ranked is a game mode where you win slowly and lose extremely fast. When you lose twice the LP that you win per game it makes every game count. Everyone knows about the grind, but people seem to just want to give in at the first moment of adversity. The only for sure way to lose is to surrender. And in my honest opinion, playing from behind is the best way to get better. Coming back from a losing game is one of the most frustrating and pressure inducing thing you can do in league. But when you do in fact win that intense, difficult, and time consuming game; it feels incredible. Because everything you put into that game, ie. your time, passion, and commitment, comes to fruition. Alternatively, when you just surrender or rage and afk; you waste not only the time you have already put in, but also you waste the opportunity to grow and learn as a LOL player. And that is the biggest shame of all.

Never Give Up, Never Surrender Summoners.

Never surrender in ranked, but I'm def not putting in the amount of effort required to turn a 0-20 game in a normal match.

Whenever I'm playing ranked and my team calling gg I always say 'the fatter they are the harder they throw'

Just ranked; this also applies to normals, arams, even the special game modes.
