How did I know this match was a loss before we ever played?

Order of picks:
Ezreal first for them Aatrox Braum us Annie Karma them JarvanIV Yasuo us Olaf MonkeyKing them Caitlyn <------Me

Now how did I know we were going to lose this one in champ select.....Easy. First, who plays Aatrox ? Like really? I put him up from my jungle

picks because he is terrible right now. Why pick him? Second, This JarvanIV we had said OUTLOUD in chat, "Hey we are all AD." Then he precedes

to hover Amumu . I thought, cool this guy is bringing extra damage and great cc. Awesome. Way to pay attention. And then he auto locks

JarvanIV . Really guy? And of course Yasuo just auto locks because that's all those mains do. Don't even look at the team comp. Then I

question him (keep in mind this questioning happened from his pick on to the end of champ select.) as to why he decided JarvanIV over the much

better Amumu . He said, and I banged my head into the wall after I read this, "Yasuo needs someone to knock people up for him." OK,

first of all, if you play Yasuo , yes it's nice to have others knock up for you but you better be able to do it on your own if you need. Secondly,

What the fuck do Braum and Aatrox do if not knock up? We had that freaking covered!

Fast forward to start of game and things go from bad to worse. Yasuo decides he doesn't need to build item 3155 to help sustain in lane so

he just goes for 100% crit right off the bat all while feeding the Annie . Later JarvanIV decides to gank bot, doesn't see the fed

Annie coming in, and feeds my lane a kill to get him snowballing.

End of game, Teamfights are horrible. I'm fed with the most cs and kills yet I'm receiving no peel and while the enemy MonkeyKing and Olaf

walk right on by my team to get to me (to which I'm doing all I can to kite back), the enemy Ezreal doesn't have to worry because my team seems

to think the support Karma is more important than the adc.....

Really. This is the fucking shit I deal with in Silver. If you can't get your shit together then don't play ranked. Go watch videos to learn how to be a better

player. And for the love of all that is holy mix up your fucking damage. And don't play Aatrox

For the person who down voted, either give me a legitimate reason as to why you would down vote something this obvious or take it right back because I am not in the wrong here.

You didn't know the match was a loss. But going in with a negative attitude greatly increases your chances of losing.

J4 has an AoE armor shred. He's also significantly more likely to land his knockup than Aatrox, and more likely to land it on a good target than Braum. He also has better engage potential against that team than Amumu does, since he doesn't have to land a skillshot to try to approach Ezreal/Karma.

Mixing damage can be useful. But you're silver, not challenger. It's not like the enemy team has Malphite, Rammus, and Taric on it. And, if you think mixing damage is so useful, why did you play Caitlin? Corki and Kog'Maw both do significant amounts of magic damage, and Vayne does enough true damage to be able to take on Olaf (once you have a couple items anyway). But you chose Caitlyn anyway. So either you acknowledge mixing damage types isn't that important, or you know that other things (such as comfort level on a champ or helping that Yasuo get knockups) can be more important.
