PSA: If you're low elo and you give up before the nexus is gone

You lack the mental fortitude and willpower to work toward a comeback.

Just because there's a few hurdles and setbacks in a game (in low elo), does not mean the game is over.

So tired of kids going "gg ff/20" or downright just giving up in lane/going afk. I've had players literally give up before the minions spawned because they didn't approve of someone's champion pick.

I don't know if it's the general age level, their attention span or what, but holy hell. Back when I started playing League in s3 up until this season, rarely did anyone ever just "give up" so easily.

Or maybe time is more valuble to those people. It is to myself. If I'm in a game where my team is getting stomped, I'd much rather FF and be able to reque for another game, rather than spending more time in a game for a miniscule chance of winning, and then possibly not having the time for another game.

Actually, for me is not a matter of comebacks, benig fed or not, how much stuff do we have or how much stuff do THEY have.

As soon as i identify certain types of players, i know it's over. And i've become particularly skilled at this, i see the player? I know is over, even faker would afk in base if he saw what i see.

Time > winning.

I would rather get stomped for 20 minutes and be able to play a 2nd game that day then maybe playing 40-50 minutes and somehow squeaking out a win after I've likely been flamed and destroyed for losing.

Some days, that one game is the only game I'm going to get to play.

I hate it when ppl give up at first sign of trouble. You're preaching to the choir.

When the nexus explodes, that's when the game is over.

Til then, maximum effort.

The only time I even will surrender is if I'm so thoroughly annoyed with the q_q's that i just want to play with a new team, lol.

some games are just a loss don't make other people suffer and waste their time for a losing game because you believe in the power of friendship take the L and move onto a winnable game
