Last hitting minions while your teammate is dead or walking to his lane makes them tilt

Title speaks for itself. This happens allot in lower ranks because they dont understand that their throwing away precious gold and xp for no reason. Im plat and this actually still happens, but much rarer. This is sad and frustrating at times, when they ping you like crazy and says gtfo dont take my farm etc. It ruins the game mode and you definitely wont gank that lane again. Or the jungler talks back and steal all his farm which leads to a toxic conversation, trolling and GG.

Suggestion: Improve the game tutorial and explain simple stuff new players needs to know.

Make a forced popup video on log inn with quiz afterwards XD.

There is definitely more things like this. Share your thoughts.

Well so long as you are just last hitting its fine. If you are doing tons of dmg to the minions in the process then you are robbing them of exp and gold by taking away the time minion hp gives them to get back with minimal loses.

They should add advance tutorials. Like wave control. I honestly didn’t fully understand it until my 3rd year playing 2016.

So if they had wave control tutorials that’d be nice.

If someone is last hitting (implies that minion is about to die), how exactly is it "throwing away precious gold"?? Isn't it the exact opposite if it is "last hitting"? And if that minion is about to die and you want that person to gtfo, wouldn't that also throw away precious xp that goes to no one???

Keep in mind that as per Rito's policy, minion or jungle camp belongs to NO ONE.

Honestly the only time I tilt in this situation is when my jungler hasn't come to my lane once the entire game, I finally die to a dive after 10 minutes of getting shoved and they come to my lane ONLY for the free gold from minions.

It shows that they don't care about helping your lane. This is just my honest opinion.

Depends. Sometimes the lane is pushing into your laner, and by leaving the creeps alone you deny the enemy more exp and gold and give your laner a chance to freeze the wave.

A lot of the time in lower elo after ganks the ganker will half push the wave and leave, allowing the enemy to freeze the wave, and denying his own laner experience.

so yeah, if the person last hitting knows what he's doing, (you for example), it will be fine.

But if the person last hitting just haphazardly clears the backline wave and then walks away while ur lane slow pushes into the enemy, GG.

If the lane has reset, any form of damage to enemy minions will start a push toward the enemy and deny your ally CS.

On the other hand, if the wave is already slow pushing to the enemy, you can prevent your ally from losing lots of CS if you shove into turret so the wave “bounces” and either slow pushes back to you (ideal) or resets.

I feel like that when teammates are dead you should be able to take cs since they're most likely going to miss it anyway

Last hitting to hold a wave for someone who died or based, so that it doesn't crash into tower, is fine. I never have a problem with this.

You shouldn't push the wave or completely take the CS (other than just last hitting) because this will hurt the player even more, they will get even more behind in CS and experience, now they get back to lane and if you didn't crash it into the enemy tower they will also have to be very pushed up just to get some CS. This is very bad for the player and for the team. Please don't do this!

Some people enter a mindset where they're looking for a reason to snap at someone. Because letting the teammate last hit when the alternative would be for the gold to go to no one just makes sense if a person takes more than 2 seconds to think about it, no advanced knowledge needed.

If it's not about a teammate last hitting minions, it will be something else for these people with that mindset.
