These types of players make no sense

Had a Master Yi in the second game of my promotional series and this guy literally was the oddest player I've ever come across. He would go try to invade/tower dive, die, then blame the closest teammate for his death. He was talking all game, pointing fingers and such about how it was our fault we were losing because we didn't "react fast enough".


Let me set the scene: Yi starts running down botside river. Runs into Talon (who I pinged) and the other 2 enemy bot laners. Dies in less than 5 seconds. Starts shouting at our bot lane because they didn't come help him. Our bot lane at this time was defending tower against a hoard of minions and was in no position to help. Couldn't have helped anyway because the sucker died faster than he could run with his R.


He literally said (not even joking) that we "obviously didn't want to win" because "you want to lose" and keep "leaving me to die". After his 4th death in less than 5 minutes (each death he blamed on our ADC and Support) he decides that he will become the 3rd bot laner. He stays bot for roughly 5 minutes and during that short span of time, dies another 3-4 times. At this point, he has more deaths than everyone in the entire game combined. I was up against Talon and I pinged every single time I lost track of him. Even if he just stepped into the fog for a second I pinged. Did this for the entire game. Yi (of course) dies to roaming Talon, blames me for not pinging. I point him to where I pinged and then he goes "you should have roamed with him". As if I could actually catch up to the Parkour Master. Even with all my pings, Talon had 9 kills at less than 15 minutes minutes and Yi by then had maybe 9-10 deaths. He ended up with like 13 deaths, and I honestly think he deserves a medal for the fastest repeated deaths in a row that I've ever seen in my life. Actually the most ridiculous player I've ever come across.

Play enough games and you'll be able to tell the difference whether this guys is legitimately trolling, or just legitimately bad.

Given what you described, I'm willing to bet he's actually a troll account made to bait teammates into talking. Those actually exist.

I know it's hard sometimes when we get teammates who seem to be struggling in game, and it feels unfair if it turns out that some players are trying to ruin your fun on purpose.

But, as long as we remember that this is just a game meant to bring us joy, and remain calm, cool, and collected as we face each challenge, I think it will make every game a little more enjoyable and help spread teamwork and positivity to your allies to help make their game go a little better!
