"I give up" "gg" "im done"

It's fine for you to think these things for yourself. but for christ sake KEEP IT OUT OF CHAT. ESPECIALLY in ranked. if you're tilted. please don't drag your team down with you. when you admit to giving up. you tilt your teammates. make people start typing, and make the people trying to win have to focus on getting you to play seriously or at the very least shut up rather then play the game

I think it's safe to say "gg" after hearing the enemy twitch go godlike in 15 min with an ardent censor support like lulu tbh.

team morale does play a huge factor in whether or not you win, I agree with keeping it out of chat

another thing. never tell people "its just a game" while you may mean well. this has negative implications. it implies that you may be not playing seriously. and if your goal is to calm people down. this is one of the WORST things to say in chat

If your teams morale cant handle a simple phrase "gg" i doubt they would win in the first place.

I gotta say it really helped in my last game yesterday. We were losing very early game, down a couple turrets/objectives. The Surrender was called i would say at least 2-3 times. We pulled through and ended up winning with the help of Elder Dragon and 2 Barons. People just need to be more positive. People give up way to easily/early when the game can easily be won if you stick together as a team!

I've been described as " Annoyingly positive " by quite a few teammates due to the fact if we're losing ill repeatedly reassure my team that they aren't bad (Even if they might be) and continuously use phrases like "I'm sorry we'll get them next time " , "I'll try to roam up to help you when i can" , "It's a rough start but we'll get through it!" or "It's okay to be annoyed , It just means you're trying your best , Thanks." A little praise/understanding goes a long way

False hope also wastes 20 minutes of my day.

And giving up for no reason wastes even more time.

I've won many a miserable game in a "comeback".

The game was still miserable though, and I still would've been happier getting out of it. If every lane lost, your jungler has no control over their jungle, your only hope of winning is the other team throwing, and this is all in a normal game. Why play another 15 minutes in a 20 minute game?

If my team is actually winning and it's just me getting fucked then I'll try to be cautiously optimistic, but spending another 15 minutes being miserable is a waste of time.

If you're not in ranked, why double your time in a shitty game?

I say that sometimes, but only when the first blood is something really stupid, like solo invading their jungle, or chasing an enemy champ back into their jungle. Definitely not constructive in any way, but I've played for so long now that I can tell when someone does something accidentally vs when they are just "that bad". A few seasons back I kept track of these types of games and I was correct in guessing that we would lose something like 89% of the time.

Have you ever...oh, I dunno...thought of helping them?

HellbornCreator1 votes

Just because I can tell someone what to do to be better doesnt mean they will listen. Most of the time they get offended and don't listen. "Hey thresh try to pressure in lane" "stfu ur bad"

If you want teammates who know how the game works, why would you smurf?

Look, i really hate to say this but let me break it down for ya I really don't know ya but when the enemy team has a net kd of over 10:1, it should be OK to open mid. ESPECIALLY if all that gold is concentrated in one person.

league is a team game, and you seriously can't expect that poor Annie to not get solo killed by Ekko over and over and over when she has item 1056 + item 1058 and he has like item 3152 + item 3100 . if you have no intentions of helping a lane (aka playing a team game league was meant to be) you're basically making poor Annie choose between inting and afking or roaming, which again, is just opening mid.

tl;dr if you say "hang in there" when im up vs a 5-0 Darius when i say "gg i give up" after asking for ganks the first 10 mins of laning phase, you should probably drop the tude and either help our or just consider it over

We actually win a 3v4 yesterday. Ashe and gp started to ff but then we had late so we win.

i just let them know i'm tilted, so they don't follow me when i pseudo-int (as in play far more recklessly than usual). sometimes i recover, sometimes i don't. i don't say "gg" though, i just say "tilted af right now".

I say GG to let someone know the fucked up and need to not let it happen again. Meaning the game is on the line so stop fucking around.

But the result of your "gg" is usually tilting to your ally. For most people hearing "gg" after they fuck up means in practice "That dude gave up and thinks I am a loser." That won't in general be taken like you think it is. You might want to keep your "gg" to yourself and do something positive instead - or at least not be negative like you seem to be doing now.

yeah people saying 'gg' on first blood are annoying but id still rather have one of those than the guy who says 'keep trying guys weve got this' when the score is 2-20 and refuses to surrender causing us to get slaughtered for another 15 mins.

i guess in my opinion its better to lose fast due to quitters than to lose those soul crushing 40 min torture games because of optimists

TEAMWORK IS IMPORTANT

Ozumat1 votes

I'll let you in on a little secret. If you're the guy trying to lead your tilted team to victory, first of all don't type and second, use the "On my way" ping often. It is the least tilting ping sound, and it can even be said that it is un-tilting, as it subconsciously communicates to your team that you know what you're doing. It's also associated with good feels, like receiving a gank, and is most often used when ahead. This works best if you do have a plan, but even using it for small things, like going to ward, diverts attention away from the argument and towards what you are doing, thus slowly restoring your teammates' focus on the game.

It's partially due to the champ I play making it semi-viable, but if I'm tilted, I just go kamikaze split push... I might die a lot, but usually I can run away. That way if I'm pushing a lane and a champ or two has to come get me, the rest of my team can hopefully win a team fight while I've got it lopsided, or the enemy will come after me instead of pushing an objective they should really be pushing.
