Jungler dies 3 times at the start of the match trying to farm the other jungle...
Mid starts flaming. Claims the jungler is feeding.
Me: "you know toxic is worse than dumb right?"
Mid: "stfu" "premade with jg?"
Jungler sneaks in a mountain drake while his opponent
is sitting top thinking he's gonna dive our top
. Graves gets killed again trying to cross mid.
Comes back and successfully clears enemy topside jungle, then ganks top and gets the kill.
vs
My lane (bot) is going well.
gets a cloud drake. Dies to their
mid's roam. Enemy jg gets our ADC in the chaos. Tries to dive me but gets driven off by turret. Our mid tries to assassinate the enemy support in front of his lane opponent and the jungler, dies.
It's now 14 minutes and the score is 17-4, opponents up 6.2k gold and two towers to zero.
Ashe and Morgana pile onto Lucian at the wrong time, just as i'm arriving back at the lane. Both die. Their top
and JG do a cleanup gank and only manage to catch Lucian. Just as i'm sitting under the second tower recalling, Diana flashes over the wall and assassinates me. The enemies get first and second turrets bot.
Meanwhile Graves and Neeko make a play for top tower and get it unopposed. Zed's still claiming Graves is inting... even though he has one fewer kill than Graves at this point.
The score is now 19-6 with the enemies up four towers and 7k exactly.
No major objectives on the map, both teams group for the siege on our second mid turret.
Diana dives Lucian, but he survives at 60HP thanks to my shield. She gets out thanks to Morgana's shield blocking my ult. Ashe and Warwick both blow ults to catch and kill me, while Zed and Graves dive the Diana, assassinating her and doing some good AOE damage. Neeko also goes in, landing an ult on three out of the four other members of their team so that they can't punish the two of them. She dies for it, but Graves and Lucian are able to melt the tanky wolf boy while he's doing it.
Not a bad teamfight, trading 3 for 2. But THEN while Lucian and Zed are recalling under the turret Graves stays in and kills Ashe and then Jax in a double knockout. Now it's a 4 for 3 and we're only 5k behind because of all the shutdown gold.
Zed and Lucian realize there's only the support remaining and get mid tower while she's unable to hold it alone. 4.8k behind.
Warwick respawns and invades our topside jungle (likely warding up for baron), finding Neeko and I. He goes in to chomp a squishy but Graves, it turns out, was right there at his red and it turns into a 1v3. Diana tries to rescue him but is too late, she gets stunned by Neeko's ult and also dies. Ashe also tried to come but because Triumph kept healing Graves she had to flee or die also. Morgana makes sure she gets away. 3.7k behind.
While i'm at base and the others are pushing mid and top waves, three of the enemy team sneak in Infernal Drake. 4.3k.
Zed and Lucian go to bot side river for who knows what reason, and Lucian find Morgana and starts attempting to kill her. Jax attempts a rescue knowing Zed is there (warded) and gets outplayed and dies.
Everyone rushes to river to support our respective allies, except Neeko who is shopping at base.
Warwick cuts me off on the way to my teammates, but Morgana misses the follow up CC and I start to escape to mid. Morg shields Warwick and he makes the decision to use ult to catch back up to me just as Neeko begins channeling Teleport to get to the river. Mid, Jg, and Bot all gang up and melt him while Neeko once again plays zoning queen to keep Diana and Ashe from interfering. I died but without Jax and WW it's now a 4v3.
Then Diana goes for the juicy shutdown on Graves, gets it, but also ends up trading her and Ashe's lives for it. Now it's 3v1.
The team's three carries all decide to siege mid tower, and Jax, who just revived, outplays them with Morgana's help, killing both Lucian and Neeko.
Zed avenges the two of them, but ends up getting killed himself by Morgana. Still 4.3k behind.
Zed's not flaming anymore.
Seeing as two of us were dead and only one of them, the obvious play was Baron. I ping it and head there, checking each bush in case the enemy went for a baron bait instead. I get there just in time to waste ult trying to steal a baron that was already gone. Lucian sneaks in a turret bottom side, as all the enemies were too far to respond. The enemies attempt to collapse on him, but our team reset and groups up for the final teamfight at mid.
The score is 29 to 17, the enemies are up 2 towers and 4.7k gold, while we have a mountain drake and a cloud to their infernal.
Ashe blows ult trying to catch out Graves and misses. Then this fight goes down.

Total. Wipe. Ran it down mid and ended the game.
Morals of the story: Be anyone on the team other than Zed. Had his flaming discouraged anyone and gotten them to give up it would have been a loss. Even down 4.7k at 22 minutes, your team is still one good wombo away from a win. Keep your mental and fight until the nexus explodes. Also don't be Warwick. Dude had such a big lead, but took all the wrong fights and gave the enemy more than he gave his team. I can't see enemy chat, of course, but chances are they were also flaming the jg over there for him to make such bad decisions. Just don't flame your jg. Ever. Doesn't matter how badly they're doing.
