No champion should be able to single handedly carry an entire team

Why is it that the entire team, save one player, can do terribly but then a fed Gangplank single handedly destroys your team all by himself and wins the match? I feel like this isn't what being a "team game" is about and is very unbalanced. Look at all of their scores, cs, items, etc. and it's VERY obvious that Gangplank carried the entire match, effortlessly. Why is he allowed to do this? There is no reward when all of your team does well and still gets 1v5'd by ONE fed player on the enemy team. Thoughts on the matter of Gangplank this season?

Aside from Bard, only two of Red Team have armor. Kennen with Zhonya's, and Udyr with IBG and a last-minute Chain Vest. Red Team's only tanky-ish champion is Bard.

There's several reasons Red lost besides GP, but if GP was singled-out as the primary issue, no one seemed to want to itemize against it.

Also, both GP and Thresh were part of the majority of their team's kills, while on Red Team only Bard can say that. And Udyr's skill order is ridiculous. ---- And I could harp on this forever.

GP carried the eff out of Blue Team; Red Team sort of let him.

You know for damn sure he didn't do it himself, he may have destroyed but you and i and everyone that reads this knows that is an excuse.

Because he's fed as hell. Any damage champ can do that if they get fed enough: I've done so with Quinn (before and after rework) as well as Xerath.

Hes just fed.......... like when anyone gets fed its ur teams problem you fed him that many kills, all you have to do is stop his farm, get away from barrels and gank him a lot to keep him behind. And he didnt build right at all lol

Late game carry gets uber fed against team that can't reliably shut him down. Nothing to see here.

Again IT IS AN EXCUSE! Even if one guy does look like he is destroying, you take all 4 players out of the the game i mean all 4 are afk now use that logic he did not do it himself.

And instead of thinking he did it himself and letting it get to you, you should be studying the guy and his game play then adapt and i bet the next time you destroy i bet you wont think you did it all yourself because that would be derpy.

Hyper carries do that, they also have down sides that you can capitalize on, typically weak early games where you can shut them down and keep them from ever reaching their power spikes.
