One of the reasons objectives are important

Hi guys,

I have been playing since season 2.I mainly play top and support is my secondary.Today i had a really bad experience in one of my games.

I played Thresh and laned with Ezreal.Enemy's bot was really unskilled as well as enemy's shaco.Our Ivern was really good and did beautiful ganks.But there is an important factor which makes you lose easy your sure-to-win game.

It's called greed!I did all these hooks,supported my team as hell BUT,they would never but never go for dragons or baron.Ememies got 2 barons,4 dragons and 1 elder.For 30 minutes my team would go only after kills and die 2 vs 4 or whatever,simply stalling the game and giving all important objectives plus kills to the enemy.I was begging them during the whole game to stop being greedy and focus on Baron to finish the game.But they prefered to threat me with reports for flame when i was simply begging the to group and not go after kills only anymore .

Supports

For those who don't like playing support.Sometimes it would be nice to forget your Ego and learn the role.But sometimes,i do sympathize with you and fully understand why you refuse to learn the role.It's really amazing how your team is far ahead in farm/kills but still lose the game because you refused to get barons/dragons.And i mean you refused!Because when all enemies are dead,you have all the time you need to get what you must.Wasting your time in front of their base doing nothing is not a nice tactic.

Jungle

This game was one of the many proofs that this meta is dependable on jungle.If your jungle wants to lose the game he will.If he wants to try to win he will gank early or go after objectives.Simply going after kills won't win you games.It makes it frustrating for those who support you and no matter how many times you try to be positive your support is sure to get tilted because you treated him like a nonexistent teammate.

When I play support I stay positive and give good feedback and involve my team in decisions and they actually listen to me. Try being a better leader instead of a boss. Even if your team isn't listening just work with them as best you can and if things don't work out ask them to come with you and get an objective next time. Or tell them you're setting up vision so you can get an objective. People respond better to indirect commands, that is if you can get them to feel like they're doing things of their own accord, you'll be better off.
