Players reporting for bad games

Why does it seem like every time I have a pretty bad game I get reported, people always say to report me after I get like 6 deaths in a game and I don't get it. I'm still fairly new so don't hate if I sound stupid.

Don't worry, Riot doesn't ban people for having bad games, no matter how many times they are reported.

Those reports will just be thrown out.

You can report someone for pretty much any reason you want, (like those punks who like to lock in at 13 seconds...don't they know 13 is unlucky?) Kidding aside, as RallerenP said, reports which are not based on someone breaking the rules, will be discarded (or will be considered a false positive and will be removed manually by support).

Cos people confuse feeding with intentional feeding.

One is just having a bad game, the other is having a malicious desire to lose the game.

They ask for reports because they want to have your account banned, thinking that the number of reports is all that is needed to punish someone, but little do they know that the system doesn't work that way.

Seems like your main role is jungle. Sad fact is that people often abuse the jungler when the game seems to be falling out of their favor. I know because I am a jungle main as well.

It's difficult, but you are really better off to try and not engage them. Do your best, learn from your own mistakes, and try to be consistent.

A few things that I noticed from a few of your more recent games, .. and I do want to say that I am not trying to claim that I am "better than you" or that I definitely know more, .. but these are things that I look for when critiquing my own games, and they are things that I try and improve on.

Your cs often seems pretty low. I might be wrong, but this suggests to me that you have a tendency to gank, or attempt to gank more frequently than you should. It is very difficult as a jungler to ignore your laners for even a little while because if you do they will complain because you aren't ganking, .. however, you must keep in mind that the game is designed in a way that the gold and experience economy requires that you farm jungle camps in order for you AND YOUR TEAMMATES to get the most efficiency out of the available resources. Relying totally on ganking is not a feasible way to get ahead. Ganking for a lane is a great way to transition pressure for your teammates. When a laner is behind, simply showing up in/near their lane will often cause the enemy to back off, relieving pressure for your laner. YOU DO NOT NEED TO GET A KILL IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY GANK. Causing the enemy laner to use an ultimate, a summoner spell, to miss cs, or to leave the lane can amount to a successful gank. However, I used the phrase "transition pressure" because while you are applying pressure by being in or near that lane, you are relieving pressure on the enemies in all of the other lanes. They know where you are, so they know they can't be getting ganked at that moment, or for the next few moments. Farming in your jungle not only gives you gold and experience, but it applies pressure on the enemy because they do not know where you are. Also, while you are within experience range, or if you take minions from your laners, you are depriving them of those resources.

The other thing that I would point out is that your vision score is not very consistent. As a jungler, this is very important for you to understand. You should read what the lolwiki page says about vision score. The Domination Path has a whole tier of runes dedicated to improving this aspect, and if you don't already, you should use Eyeball Collection, Zombie Ward, and Ghost Poro. Along the same lines as what I mentioned earlier, helping your teammates to find out where the enemy jungler is will help relieve pressure from them, .. that is, if they are paying attention, and sadly you can not make them. You can however, pay more attention yourself and ping the enemy's location when they are spotted by your wards, or type in chat where the enemy is.

Focus on being more consistent in these things, and just ignore your laners IF YOU NEED TO, and you should see an improvement, .. and your laners might notice as well.

People are too lazy and narcissistic to tell the difference between "Having a bad game/Being outplayed (You played good, they played BETTER)" and "INTENTIONALLY feeding a game for the sole purpose of INTENTIONALLY losing a game" People want to blame anyone for anything so the moment someone goes 0/1 because they got CCed to a standstill and passed around in a 4v1 like the town bicycle (everyone gets a ride), these players too lazy to know the difference think "Well if we lose, I can just blame X for the loss and report them for "inting" so I can take any responsibility off myself

and the funny thing is, often its Bot lane getting camped by Mid lane because Mid lane is too lazy to ping MIAs, so Bot gets camped by jungle AND mid, and ally mid player acts like its "not my problem, learn to ward better"
