So I've had a lot of games in lower elo where players will tilt as soon as something doesn't go their way and start saying they will feed.
what I've been doing is talking them down to at least get them to stay passive in their lane instead of running into mid to feed. This doesn't always work though which is why I want to know what you do in situations where players threaten to feed?
LatetotheRace2 votesTo be quite frank with you, you cannot. People who go on tilt are highly unstable and if they stop being tilted it's from some sort of miracle. There's almost no consistent method I have used to "untilt" a player. Sadly that is the stupid truth.

this is untrue. often times. it could be something as simple as they are getting camped by the enemy jungler and you help them.
JRobin311 votesWait... you get players that threaten to feed and your response is to go their lane and gank for them? ... Well, as the saying goes "the squeaky wheel gets the grease".
If you have the typing skills, then you can go ahead and talk them down, but I don't have those kinds of skills. I can't waste a lot of time in game chatting players into having the fun that they should be having.
So I tend to ignore players who make threats or attempt to hold the game hostage. It's not that I don't want them to have fun, but it's up to them to find the happy place inside.

Ozag the Mighty1 votesI just ignore it and continue what I'm doing, if it's bad enough I just mute em.

One of the best ways to calm somebody down would be for you to net them lots of kills and make them feel like they are carrying, but that can induce cockiness and an inflated ego.
''gg trash team no skill'' can turn into ''GG no skill trash team and I hv 2 carry''
Even congratulating a team mate for doing well can ease their stress. Saying something like ''Challenger Master Yi'' after he scores a double kill or something can fix their attitude.
Xantak1 votesPositive motivation can help along with having their back during the match. Especially if you help them out during a gank/teamfight, and give them the kill, tower gold, or monster buff. If you're working at cheering them on, it can be just the boost they need to get back into the saddle.
