Why do terrible ADCs blame the support?

Do they not have the intelligence to realize they're terrible at the game? That the support that is carrying your sorry ass is actually a far better player than you?

The same reason crappy supports blame their adcs.

And the same reason junglers blame their laners, and laners blame the junglers....

Most people find it easier to blame others than accept their own mistakes. This isn't exclusive to any one role or archetype.

Why do terrible people project and blame their shortcomings and insecurities on others

What bugs me the most is when they say "Stop stealing my minion kills." Someone told me that the other day and I had killed 2 minions....2!

Not saying I don't agree, but let me paint a picture that sheds some light on this situation. You are an Ez, trying to farm. You have a morg support versus a Jinx and Janna. The enemy bot lane backs up to their turret and you continue farming. Your support without warning you runs right at them and stuns one and drops a w. Good poke right? Except she stays there and starts auto attacking. Meanwhile you try running to catch up because she in no way pinged or told you that she was going in. She and/or you die. Whose fault was that? And while we are on a Morg support. Dropping a W beneath minions actually makes it harder to last hit sometimes thus they lose cs and it looks like you've taken cs. The scenario I just described is one I've dealt with. It's a pain.

You do realize that criticizing you isn't the same as blaming you, right? You make mistakes every game.

A key part of being terrible is assuming that you are totally awesome and anything that goes wrong is totally everyone else's fault.

If terrible players stopped doing that they'd probably be a lot less terrible.

You know... this attitude doesn't make you any better.

Because if they don't it hurts their fragile ego, had a Draven a while ago that rushed into melee range of the enemy support and AD, and died twice and then blamed me for it and went AFK.
