Working with your team..On a Team game...means YOU ARE WEAK!
Seriously, I am getting sick of this sort of mentality coming more and more frequent in matches. Just got out of a Match where our mid laner jhin QUIT at the start of of the match. We let the other team know. And they suddenly start telling us NOT TO SURRENDER. Because.. Apparently Surrendering on a match means we are weaklings. The fact that the "team is weaker with the loss of one player" is a new concept. And its really starting to pi$$ me off.
The general idea that On a TEAM based game, The fact that teammates work TOGETHER is generally frowned upon. You see it all the time "Oh you must suck, took 2/3/4 of you to kill me" That on a team game multiple teammates actually are willing to work together and come together to form a strategy is seen as WEAKNESS. People come into the matches with an "every player for themselves" mentality. That working with your team is bad, and all that matters is who has the MOST kills. at the end of the match. So many matches that could be won are lost because people are only concerned with THEMSELVES getting the penta. They will let thier whole team die for the sake of THEM being able to get a penta with as little as a sneeze. And when the other team works together to focus that player, Somehow its seen as Something to Be ashamed of, to be frowned upon. That You must suck SO badly that you cant "1v1 me bruh"
League is a TEAM game, which apparently is a foreign concept for these call of duty preschoolers who will throw a complete tantrum if they dont get "all the killz" and if the other team actually works together, it is not something to be cheered and commended, they should be shouted down and told how pathetic they are for actually having to rely on thier TEAM to help them.
League is a TEAM game. It is Multiple people with Different limitatiosn working together, Much like chess. The knight can only move in an L-shape, The castle/rook can only move horizontal or vertical. The bishop can only move diagonal. but they all work together as a complete game. I am getting sick and tired of people coming into the game and trying to turn it into call of duty where it is every player for themselves, the only thing that matters is who has the most kills. That the support is NOT part of the team (lost count how many times I have set up a kill, got my adc fed, only for adc to brag about HIS kills and tell me how USELESS I AM. Like I played No part in getting him fed) And again, Calling for a surrender vote is NOT a sign of weakness, It is not "surrender votes are for weaklings, surrender is for P***ys" or the like. If one player quits, the rest of the team suffers and the match becomes more and more UNWINNABLE (I know How people like to pretend there is no such thing as an Unwinnable match). So Get over yourself and dont flame people who actually want to work with thier team, even if you are so arrogant and concieted, so wrapped up in your own ego that you see teamwork as something to be frowned upon or a form of weakness.
TL:DR:
- League is a team game, the actions of ONE player, has an echoing effect on the team.
- Getting help from your team or calling for a surrender vote is NOT A FORM OF WEAKNESS.
- If all that matters is who has the highest number on your KDA, even at the cost of the team and even the match itself. Then maybe you are not interested in a team game, just having 9 other "Witnesses" to your own ego.
I am expecting flames, downvotes, and people to discount anything I have to say because of "insert random stat = your thoughts are invalid/Moot"
