Hint to those who don't know:
If youre playing in an elo with more than 250 people They aren't wintrading.
Win trading is a thing you have to be kind of arranging with the other player before you even queue up. Hence "Trade". it isn't a cute way to blame your team for playing suboptimally or picking into a negative match up and not getting proper help from their team.
Two simple words put together, it doesnt take a genius to figure out its meaning.
On the other hand, people always look for excuses to justify their losses to make themselves feel better.
Sometimes people really do make mistakes, like losing track of the 7th minion in lane and ignoring the level up of an early bully. While this doesnt constitute a feeding teammate, it can make a game go downhill from there from that simple mistake because of how high damage is in the game right now.
So props to all the streamers for throwing this word around effortlessly and giving people an excuse to justify their losses as nothing that they can do. Sure there are certain situations where games are unwinnable, but if your method of winning the game when you have a 0-5 laner is to group mid, then you have other problems at hand.
