I often deal with situations, when you JUST CANT. When defeat is obvious, when you just cant do anything about situation, when YOU JUST CANT KILL ANYTHING, but team just dont surrender and you just forced play game you dont want to play. What should players (like me) do in this situations?

I hearing turning on some music that you like helps some players.

You really kind of just gotta accept it in your mind as a loss and find what fun you can left.

This will sound blunt, but if you are unwilling to finish a game until the end you should not queue up.

Games are not over until the nexus explodes, and if you work with your team in a polite, cooperative manner, it is very easy to at least make a final stand, if not come back to a decent standing.

The people replying saying there are no doomed games / you're a quitter / etc, are either very new or just ignorant. There are definitely games where it's obvious you're going to lose, and you can tell by how your team is acting that they've pretty much given up as well. It's one thing to give up early, but there are 100% games that are unwinnable, either due to team comp or bad matchmaking.

Find ways to be useful. You don't have to win a teamfight to be useful. If you're not useful in the teamfights, but your team has tanks that can prolong the teamfights, try to go to another lane and push down a tower, or work on positioning and ward more key areas. Don't see it as a doomed game, see it as a new learning experience to grow and get better.
