Winning through Tilt

CheshireGame·2/20/2017, 11:54:50 PM·1 votes·644 views

I just had a game, and I remembered that something similar has happened before. I got in game and the enemy team sent the Jungler and the support to kill me, I wasn't even level 9 at the time (in game level), and I was 1/1/0 I wasn't fed. So why, why did they have to keep coming to my lane to kill me, why me of all people did they have to harass. Why do some players try to win by making others games horrible, and making them depressed enough to not want to play? Can I even report them for that, I just don't understand anything, and I just want to play a game and have fun. If I lose then ok, if I win then ok, if it was close or a stomp then ok, but why can't I just play the game? I don't think this method of victory is right, it does not feel good when you lose because of it, and it shouldn't feel good winning like that. I mean, someone definitely will die because of this if not already. I got salty and angry the third time they did it, and by the fifth I just wanted to die and end it. Someone please, please tell me what I can do about this, can I report them in some way?

Uhh, you were three man ganked top? No this is called strategies 1- winning/dominating a lane that your team can get ahead with is good 2- tilting the enemy laner offsets their abality to focus on the game which is good 3- welcome to the 5 man bot lane scenario 4- camping isnt reportable, sorry

Nope, it is a legitimate strategy which is only reportable if they are saying things that go against the Summoner Code to do it. Camping a lane is a legit strategy and frequently used. Not only is someone going to tilt, but someone is also getting fed off it. Just finished a game where a Rengar camped mid to feed the Viktor. Before that I was going to camp my GP's lane to keep the Nasus down and underfed (Which GP didn't need me at all for that.) My advice, find a champion with either an awesome escape or some serious endurance, with range farming potential. DrMundo Swain TahmKench

Honestly what champ you play has a massive influence on this. Im a jungle main and if you play Riven i will literally never fucking leave your lane. I will camp you until you AFK. cause fuck riven. I literally have a list on a sticky note of champs that i will camp until they rage quit. cause fuck those champs.

There is one thing, I am a mid laner TT^TT I already am ranged Does anyone have any tips on how to avoid this problem, I already ward, especially when it's someone fast like Yi and I don't have any mobility cause I am a mage? That was my problem, I am slow and people like Yi get there fast.

Try Ziggs? He has an escape. Maybe an assassin?

Tilting through verbal harassment, yes I think something should be done (and it is). This is not done through fair play and you are not beating anyone through merit. It's through inflammatory language and is just unsportsmanlike.

Tilting through ganks and/or being beat in lane by your opponent... nothing should be done about it. It's completely a legitimate strategy and it's being beat on the merits through strategy and communication. There is absolutely no reason to punish people for working together as a team. It would actually be the antithesis of a team sport. League of legends isn't supposed to be 4 x 1v1 and 1 x 2v2. It's supposed to a 5v5.
