uncooperative teammates.

i swear. so many games are thrown not due to trolls or lack of skill. but just general bullheadedness and uncooperativity. its hard to win a game when every play call. ping or request to group mid is met with a "stop talking" or "stfu" regardless of whether it was the right call or not.

Absolutely, I have had an absolutely terrible time lately. It's why I've stopped playing for a bit. Hopefully your luck turns around!

That's low elo for you. You can't really expect many players there to have the coordination and decision making of a Plat, because they wouldn't be there for long. Set your expectations accordingly.

I believe it was said by the esteemed Sir David Turley, "It's better for everyone to follow a bad call than nobody follow a good one". If they aren't following what you think is a good call, it may be better to back them up on their bad call instead. Following through alone with "good" calls meant for 2-5 people will lose you the game.

What you have described, for the most part is really just the nature of this game...

And of course there's always exceptions
