My last game was tense... but also kind of unfair.

(WARNING: This story is a long wall of words in case you don't feel like reading about my last game)

This was probably one of my worse games, but thankfully there was some light in it. The Kai'sa and Jayce gave everything they got despite the fact we were at a major disadvantage, I humbly give them props for that. However, to recap what happened, I tried calling mid for champ select because heck... I'm a swain main. The person playing as zoe called mid but in my chat it showed I said it first, but it wasn't until in game that someone pointed out zoe got it first. Anyway, acknowledging the issue that happened with the chat glitch, I went over to be Kai'sa's support as swain so Zoe can have mid... buuuuuut the Zoe rage afk'd anyway. It wasn't long before Nunu decided to afk, but it was probably because he knew we were going to lose but why not help give us a chance at winning, idk. Anyway, the only players left were me, kai'sa, and jayce. Me and kai'sa push bottom all the way to their inhibitor turret, but we couldn't push anymore because if we got remotely close for farming that long, the enemy team would notice and send two to three people to take us out. Me, and the Kai'sa got fed, which we were able to pull off 2v4's and 2v3's. Later on, we pushed all the way to mid's inhibitor, and tried continuing on from there. We WOULD have gotten baron, but there was only three of us so the DPS wouldn't be that high to kill it fast enough until the enemy team would notice, and since the enemy team's jax went afk too, no one bothered to get baron. Later on for like 30 minutes in the game, the Zoe came back, which we asked if they are able to help us win the game we might have been able to pull off. Yet of course that wasn't the case, instead the Zoe told the enemy team where they were, so they can give the enemy team a kill constantly. If Zoe didn't tell them anything, they would have just ran down mid instead or ran at a random enemy champion just to give kills... Like.... what on earth would you gain from that. We ended up losing but seeing that we were able to make it that far with three players against 4 or 5 (depending on the time since the jax afk'd for some reason).

That game was tense but ended up being a complete bust... I felt bad for our team and the enemy team because three people total from the whole game afk'd, with one of them which came back decided to intentionally die (I am not the one for pointing fingers that someone is inting, but the Zoe was intentionally dying to the enemy team around 30 minutes in if you watch the match replay, and for more proof, the Zoe is 0/9 which happens... but that doesn't explain the 0 cs, or the lack of items).

But one thing's for certain, I am glad about two things, I am glad that the jayce and the kai'sa still gave it their all, and I am also glad this wasn't a ranked promos Rofl.

Kai'sa and Jayce last game if your reading this, thanks for trying to achieve a victory.

I mean, it's really not worth getting upset over if it was a normals blind pick match anyways. Just block and report the people and move on is what I would say, otherwise you really only lost some experience points potentially and you gained some experience in playing a 3v5. I never play blind pick anymore because the whole role calling thing is a garbage way to do it anyways and it encourages this mentality that you're entitled to a role and if you don't get it you might as well just leave. In draft pick you're not always going to get the role, but when you do you're most certainly entitled to it and you're going to get a lot less of this behaviour, especially in normals where people are more willing to practice new things out anyways. Normals in general is where people go to practice new champions, builds, and roles, and ranked is more often used for playing the few things that you're most comfortable with.

This reminds me of my last game, be It It wasn't as intense as yours. I was playing Thresh support, the game was doing even, both sides seems to have a fair chance of winning. Until when our Top hit level 5 and went AFK for unknown reasons, I didn't report or flame them since I don't know their reason for AFK, It can be everything really... The enemy top was crazy ahead and I thought the game was over since mostly our Mid and ADC where doing most of the damage and we where lacking a true tank (unless you count me as a tank with support tank items). We where really close to losing the game, but the enemy was consistently failing to push, resulting us getting 3 or 4 aces. Those aces helped us recover and our Mid and ADC alone won us the game while me and our Jng where defending the base. It was a normal game, but man It was painful to playing that game in particular. I recommend playing Draft pick, since It's more likely to get the role you want and as someone who plays Swain a lot myself, he barely gets banned. And also a TL:DR would be cool to be added, since I don't think everyone has the time to read this.
