What did I do to deserve 0/7 today?

Game 1: Garen Mid troll. ADC couldn't cs or poke to save his life. Game 2: Shyvana mid troll. Blitz landed 1 grab the entire game... yeah... he had to have landed one... right? Game 3: 0/3 Ashe, 0/7 Lulu, 2/6 Ryze, 4/8 Malzahar and I'm on skarner in shock trying my best to run around to each lane and carry. actually got Ryze both his kills. Game 4: Garen mid troll #2! Teemo support for my sivir and he decided to take every cs I was going for and never poke. Game 5: Bard mid troll... I don't even like bard as sup tbh (he went 8/13 by sniping kills). I was up 7/0 as Garen and just couldn't push it hard enough to topple over a jax who got fed off bot feeding him 15 kills. Game 6: This is almost funny, wish I didn't fall for it. The adc trolled that he was using Zilean. I figured I'd go ADC since he wanted top so I went it cause at 10 seconds left he was still Zilean. He then switched to graves at the last second and gg, I'm ezreal top. By far one of the worst experiences today. Game 7: I was up 4/2/2, and that's almost soloing with their jg trying hard as hell to catch me off guard. Then Rek'sai dc'd. We gave it a decent effort but when we had a rough bot and they were a bit behind it was just impossible to 4v5 when they could split push. Slow... miserable... loss.

What do I do? What can I say? Walk away? Do something else? Then what? Come back and do this all over again?

Maybe I'm not the best player but I truly try and try to stay positive. But this was seriously discouraging and it's not the first time. I lose a LOT to trolls and d/c's like this and the people who do it just don't care at all.

Only one time in that post did you ever take any blame for any of those losses, and it was in the one game where it mostly wasn't your fault (4v5).

It's a team game. Also, you're leveling up. There are going to be a lot of matches that just aren't in your favor because of smurfs.

ADC couldn't cs or poke to save his life... Blitz couldn't land hooks

So you are telling me that people under level 30, in the sectioned-off "I'm new" matchmaking queues, are still learning and not that good at the game yet?

Mid Garen isn't a troll move. Maybe that guy was bad, but the position can be fantastic if used correctly.

I'm not excited to hear it happening, because if it becomes popular people will finally learn how to play against it...

Sorry, mate. You're in a separate queue until lvl 30.

I actually went Zilean ADC before. It worked.

Y'know, it just bothers me when I see things like:

"I actually went Zilean ADC before. It worked." "Mid Garen isn't a troll move. "

Because at the level we play at as some of you mentioned, they ARE troll moves. The best thing for most of us to do while leveling is play champs in the roles they're strong and work at learning the meta. As others pointed out, it does have the same thing over 30. And I've had about the same post at 30 in ranked.

As for me "not taking blame", what would you have me do? What more could I have done? I tried to ward, I tried to help other lanes, I tried grabbing towers and was fairly successful but got str8 out beaten by someone who either got fed more kills or was on a champion that could really hurt my champion. I really am not a rager or anyone close to thinking I'm the best, but I don't know how else to carry these kinds of teams.

I'm at a loss on how to recover when bot feeds 10 kills while I get 2 kills mid and top and come down to help them on a jungler. They didn't ping for help, didn't show signs they were gonna die. Then boom instantly dead, each time. I asked them to set up ganks, I pulled the opponents with skarner into our tower and we still couldn't get them down.

Or when I'm doing well enough on ahri in mid, and help our top keep off a really good jax and still grab my cs in mid and then help bot push I really don't know what else I can do. If you have suggestions with the above scenarios please, I'm all ears.

As for people being new, I'm fine with that. If they're new and struggling I'm cool with it. I didn't get mad at blitz, I helped him as much as I could. I really did. I had my positioning so that it would help him get hooks but it really was something where he should be practicing hooking in bot games.

You're still pretty low level, when you get to level 30 you'll meet better players, but to be quite honest with you, it's still pretty bad then. You won't get 0/7 though, but you'll still see pretty stupid crap.

I see that you're level 20... don't worry. It gets better.
