Getting really sick of...

So it seems lately that I've run into this pattern in matches that I lose. Everyone loses, everyone has a bad match at some point, but when you're in that match where the lane (specifically bot in this case) is pretty even. You poke, they poke and the dmg is rather even, not anyone side is really pushing more than the other. In this instance it seems lately I get the jungle who just either forgets to come bot, or something but there is a significant lack of ganks. Meanwhile their bot will get a camping jungle.

Now with some junglers, this can be countered by wards and being aware, but in some cases, and specifically the invisible characters, it's really hard to manage vision over them, and the now 3 v 2 lane. The part where I get frustrated isn't losing to this, it's actually the enemy team's response to the situation. "Oh you got owned!" or "Haha, bot just feeding". Your team will also start to blame you for feeding, but there isn't much you can do. Try and hug the turret and survive but the enemy can get so tanky they just plow right through the turret damage and eliminate you. In these instances, where the enemy lane acknowledges that the lane was an even match before their jungle shows, then changes their attitude to "we're the best NA".

Well for me, this is what drives me away from this game. The over the top bragging over winning a lane because you got more jungle support than the other team. The most annoying part is that they refuse to acknowledge it was a factor, they indirectly acknowledge it by saying "well you should have countered it". The way to counter it is my having your jungle help you, which is their job just like it was the enemies team's jungle's job to protect them when they needed it.

I feel like the responsibility of "feeding" gets put on whoever has the lowest K/D/A, regardless of how they got it. They might have had the worst laning partner, or like this case, a completely negligent jungle. There's no way of getting people to stop the harassment of "You suck and we're losing because you fed lane", even muting, there's the after game lobby or the feeling of well I'm on a team but we can't talk because they blame me for everything. When in reality, being a team game, its the team's responsibility to help each other out when its needed, not just put the blame on someone. That's what I think this game is lacking in the purest form, teamwork. Its a team-based game, with no teamwork, everyone only looking out for their K/D/A and seeing who they can blame for "feeding" regardless of how it happened.

It has always been like that and the reason for that is that we have a huge immature community. they don't understand what a team game is about all they care is about their kills, i have found to get a little away from getting blame for stuff by adding summoners with a good attitude to my friend list and queue'ing with them and that keeps does annoying summoners away from your team now the enemy team is the only issue they can still talk dumb stuff but does you can mute as you dont need the communication with them.
