Flaming a feeder and get reported

Just like the title said, I flamed a feeder and get reported. Yes, it's a team game, everyone is responsible for each other in the team and shares the same fate, either win or lose. But not at all, we all have independent KDA score, CS score bla bla bla. That means everyone, every role have their own responsibly, the others have to fill the hole if someone failed his part. And why can't I complain when the hole is too big to fill-up

For a top lane main, LOL doesn't really feel like a team game in the laning phase, so you will be quite mad when feeder start to affect your play and score. Then we have few options,

  1. Join your team, try to carry the game and fight those who are fed by your team, risk your KDA for your team's victory. (i don't think it's fair, the feeder fed that monster and you have to deal with it)

  2. Split push, Try to draw the enemy's attention, but what if your team can't even hold the door with 4 vs 3, you will still risk getting report by your team for not grouping. (It works in rank game, but not vs those "it's just normal game" feeder)

  3. AFK farm, avoid team fight and the those fed by the feeder. Protect your KDA from the feeder or the team. And very likely to get reported for not grouping. (i won't do it in rank game )

It will not bring you any happiness while facing these options, it might make you a bit mad because you have to suffer for the mess he created. I know it's a team game so we are responsible for everyone in your team, choosing no.1 is right and no.3 is wrong. BUT, The better players are responsible for the feeder because he is in your team. and what is the feeder's responsibility? Can't even let his team blame him for feeding while they are trying so hard to carry his ass? If we can't flame a feeder, it's unfair for those who still have hope in the team and try to carry the game.

If it's really a team game, only winning is matter, why don't we delete all the independent score and show only victory or lose in the match history and stats. That's the principle of rank game. I won't be whinging anything about it if it does, but it doesn't.

Flaming

And there's why. Flaming is universally forbidden. It doesn't matter if they're flaming, inting, afk, hacking, or spouting Nazi propaganda.

And you said feeding. Not inting - feeding. As in dying a lot, without necessarily intentionally. You flamed someone who did poorly, which is one of the exact situations the rule is in place to prevent.

Riot doesn't care abotu feeders . The matchmaking system is broken and not fair. It's not fair I dont care what anyone says. If i win 10 in a row you can better believe Riot will put me with the most dumb af feeders or trolls possible to lose the next 10. it's a fact! Riot doesn't want people to rank up. they only care about esports.

LOL the ratio of how long it takes to climb in honor, to how quickly you can lose it is actually r%%%%%ed. yep the r word. thats how strongly i feel about it. I was just honor level 4 after climbing slowls all season 9. yep honor level 4. pretty sweet, i thought. then i just played 1 game. 1 game where all my teammates were a premade and they played under tower all game, then flamed me as the jungler. i end up getting reported. which is fine, i expected that because when a premade group all reports you at once youre basically fucked in the a and theres nothing you can do about it. honestly, they should change it so that only 1 member of a premade group can report. otherwise a group can literally just report people for fun and get them banned on purpose for flaming them.

anyways, my point is. i dropped from honor level 4. to level 1. after 1 report. yep, you read that right. i dropped 3 honor levels. from 1 game. 1 stupid game. i keeep track of all my games and honors and all that jazz in a spreadhseet. it literally took me 8 months to climb that high in honor. and then i lose it ALL cuz of 1 match. gtfo here riot. thats the dumbest thing ever. at least give me a get out of jail free card or something. do i not earn any leniancy for being honor level 4? ffs. this is the kind of crap that makes me want to stop playing this game for good. premade groups have all the power and theres too many people in the community that ruin the game. think im going to go back ot my ps4. at least cod matches have a max limit of 10 minutes, and an entire hour of my life isnt wasted just because 1 player has to go to bed cuz his mom is yelling at him.
