Please, for the sake of your teammates, be quiet.

More often than not, your teammate isn't dying on purpose.

You're not being helpful by pointing out obvious strategies.

Nothing is more tilting than getting told to, "Stop fighting, stay under your turret," when you've been under your turret, missing experience and farm, getting poked for the past 3 minutes by a ranged, manaless champion with wave clear and sustain.

So please, keep the "helpful" comments to yourself. Typing is distraction as is, unless you're typing something a ping can't communicate, that puts your team in a better position, there's probably something you could be doing. Even if you're just walking back to lane, instead of typing, pan the map. See where everybody is, you might be able to get a number's advantage.

If you are feeding you should probably mute your teammates. They are obviously going to be upset with you and its unrealistic to think that all 4 of them will refrain from tilting and typing at you

This is absolutely correct. I mean, there are probably some situations where some strategic input is helpful and warranted, but the mantra of "stay under turret" is condescending and unhelpful, not to mention often incorrect. If I'm 0/2 in top lane against a champ that counters me and they've established a freeze outside their own turret, hanging out under my own turret is practically a concession of the entire game at that point. If I have a pulse, I know that I need to remain somewhat passive and cautious, but letting my lane opponent farm infinitely helps nobody.

It should go both ways too. I mean have you ever had a game where a player is constantly being self-depricating?

Like, it's just as bad.

gets executed by jungle "LOLOLOLOL I'M SO BAD!" gets executed again ""OMG! Idk how this champ works? gives double buffs "Holy shit guys, I'm sorry, I'm never THIS bad, report me if you want, LMAO!" lands 1 skill shot "Hey I did it! I landed 1 our of 79 skill shots in this match today!"

It never stops, and even when you mute them, you can see them typing because they'll just sit there and talk about how shitty they're playing. Like, goddamn dude, I get you're not having the best experience but could you at least learn from it? I mean you have been complaining about missing your skillshots and dying for the past 10 minutes now, you figured you would have learned by now?"

some people really don't understand that if they just turtled we would have a better chance of winning than just running it down mid expecting that to work

seriously its so silly people repeatedly run down mid as one or two and they die then they do it again expecting something dif to happen, no they aren't inting they are just clueless, even after we get a good fight as a result of playing defensive and get some kills they continue to do this and its pretty frustrating

but i agree telling them this doesn't really help, you can ask like, once, then just stop cause they obviously don't care

There is a difference between being countered or outclassed and just not caring. In 90% of the cases I've personally seen, it's the latter. If it's the former, the person will generally react with "I'm trying" or something. This is post number like ten thousand on this subject and I'm tired of seeing it. Stop contributing to the problem and start flaming.

Making a sick play will make you team leader.
