people blame shift way too damn much in this game

So I had a game as Sona mid because it's fun to play with underdog champs. And after a while, probably 15 minutes or so into the game, I comment how the enemy Jungler, Vi, is really ripping our lanes a new one (and at that point I had only died once, i think). The literal first response is "your so badd sona" from top (who was doing mediocre anyway)

so at this point, I'm already like 'are you serious' and then the jungler, who absolutely did NOT help my lane at all in any shape or form, follows up with 'dude sona you suck'

Zero common sense, I swear. I totally admit that I could have done better, but it's so ridiculous to see people not take ANY responsibility for a loss and throw the blame on the person they left in the dirt to die. Not to mention, it helps zero to be negative or demeaning to teammates when you're losing. How the hell does that help? You're an idiot if you do shit like that. Learn some god damn manners.

My favorite is the guy who is 0/6 in his lane saying you lost the game for the team.

What rank are you? Because I've noticed as a Bronze player myself that down here people don't tend to look at their mistakes and blame other people, even if the person they're blaming is the one actually making sure their team stays in the game. They refuse to accept their mistakes (i.e. getting caught or going into a bad matchup) or are completely blind to them. Tip: Mute people

Agreed, it's extremely frustrating to be on the receiving end of the blame. Everything is about perspective though. Have you ever been in a situation when you wanted to lash out at others? How about when you made several stupid mistakes and fall behind the enemy jungler? Who better to lash out at than the 0/5/0 Sona that's pointing out how much better the other jungler is doing?

Ideally, everyone would be able to control themselves and not rage. Quite frankly, that's an unrealistic standard, and we can't expect everyone to be able to achieve it. The only alternative is to receive the abuse, and ignore it. Don't be angry, everyone has their worst moments. Report the guy afterwards if you want. Most importantly, don't lash back; it will only make the situation worse.

On a slightly unrelated note, I once initiated it for the enemy by accident. Our ADC (I was support) didn't connect. I held lane solo as Braum (chain ganks were a big help! Seriously, couldn't have done it without them). Our ADC finally connects once everyone is around lvl 5-6 then proceeds to apologize and bemoan about how they will never be able to catch up. To help change that mind set, I tell them not to worry because our lane opponents are pretty bad. ...In /all chat. . . . Oops.

They reply about how only our jungler ever appears in bot lane. Their jungler shoots back about how their top was getting destroyed (by ours). . .

I don't remember if we won or not.

Lol when i first started playing as Lulu i was pretty bad, but i put every effort into trying my best to protect my team, and when a team fight broke out in the jg we got stomped because well....the enemy team was pretty fed but we had a nice yasuo go in for a nice engage and he managed to get 2 kills after i ulted him to make sure he stayed alive since he got focused down but by adc ended up dying after i ulted our yas..he pretty much dived at less than 40% hp to catch the fleeing mage and ended up going in too deep and dying..i had no way to back him up since i ran out of many and he double flashed away....for the rest of the game my adc proceeded to flame me for his death and complaining in /all about how bad of a support i was being and how i never ult to save him even though the yas always needed it the most because he was our main engage and always ends up taking the most dmg in the beginning of the fight...he ended up feeding in the end..i like to think its because the other team was literally "feeding" off of his frustration....

Played Veigar blind pick against a Sona. The enemy team raged at her so bad/ I felt a bit sad,

Literally a PERFECT example of what I like to call "The League of Sheeple"

My favorite times are when I play Gnar top, feed a few kills, get called out, and then I still end up being more important because my lane opponent was just there as a tank and wasn't really important. So Gnar CC > Random tank.
