PSA: Tilting your own team mates doesn't help you win games
If you have even the slightest semblance of care for victory, especially in ranked. Why would you ever go out of your way to waste time, watching your ally, pinging your ally, chatting your ally? There are several problems with this.
A: You aren't paying attention to what you are doing. You cannot possibly be paying attention to your last hitting in bot lane while being too busy watching Riven in top lane.
B: You leave yourself open every time you type. Seriously, you are open to being killed. How does getting caught with your pants down make you any better than your jungler who didn't gank when you felt they should have? This is why even talking in all chat isn't a good idea 95% of the time.
C: You are wasting time. You could be walking somewhere, farming something, trading with somebody, warding, choosing items, dodging etc. You instead are taking the time to watch somebody else's lane or type rage in chat. This is why even talking in all chat isn't a good idea 95% of the time.
D: You are just making yourself angrier. Every word you type, every ping you issue, every time you watch their plays. That is like trying to extinguish yourself by throwing gasoline on somebody nearby. You aren't 'getting it out of your system'. You are just adjusting your mental pathways to function like that and consider it normal.
E: You are making your entire team perform worse. Not only the person you are raging at, but everyone. A toxic environment lowers peoples moral, makes them also waste time with pings, arguments, chat, /all chat, afk, etc.
To put this in terms of game mechanics: A: The equivalent of having reduced vision and minions having a random chance to dodge last hits. B: Basically you now have a self stun going off every few seconds. C: You might as well be permanently lagging. D: Increases % chance for your champion to 'randomly' dive into enemy attacks. E: Nerf across the board to all of your allies stats, gold income, mechanics and positioning.
Do you really want to nerf yourself and your entire team that hard? Because that is what you are doing... Do you really want to assure an LP/Promos loss? Because that is what you are doing...
You aren't stuck in "ELO HELL" you are stuck in your own self created hell. You are taking a game that isn't going so well, and making it a loss for sure. You never deserve to rise in rank, if you throw games. Rising in rank is the reward for winning, as a team. Your rage, your tilting, your "?" pings, do not increase your odds of doing that, in fact, they lower it. Would you buy an item every game that lowers your overall win rate drastically? Would you take a mastery every game that performs badly? If not, then for the sake of your win rate and rank, I suggest you also not take an attitude into every game that lowers your odds of winning.
