So I just finished my provisionals and landed in Silver II. I was pretty good throughout normals and often carried my games, but anytime I didn't I immediatley thought we were going to lose. There have been some games where my team has pulled huge upsets but now that I am in ranked I have to have a better attitude. None of my friend like playing with me because anytime I die more than once early on, I want to surrender. It just often gets out of hand and I dont know what to do. How do I get a better attitude!

You sound sort of like my duo partner. He dies once, hes saying its GG. He misses out on one or two kills from a gank and he rages about KSing. One or two members get caught out and killed by enemy team, and suddenly our team is filled with trashy retards. We can be 14-14 and he says its unwinnable and threatens to AFK. He did all of these all day. We lost two out of ten games. You just have to believe in yourself, and your team mates, usually.

I tell my friend that you should never go into a match assuming everyone is an idiot. People are going to make mistakes, and most of the times, when they make them, they had some plan, or some idea that sounded good to them at the time. Sure, in hindsight, it was dumb to flash over the edge and try to finish off that ADC, but how was he supposed to know the jungler was there too?

Having a good attitude can keep your teamates motivated which definitely wins games

I usually get angry when I think about what my teammates are doing wrong. To help this, focus instead on your own game. There are some games you will lose no matter how well you play, but there's always something you could have done better. If you concentrate on that instead of what your teammates are doing, then you won't rage as hard. That's my advice.

Just remember this game isn't about always about you, just because you die once or twice doesn't mean your teammates arn't skilled enough to carry you. -Teamfights can always turn around a game, if you have a team with many aoe CCs, you can win even if you're losing -If you're losing be patient, try to farm safely and not make plays, unless you know it will work with a good probability -Yes you might not enjoy the game more, not being in a position to carry or own a high KDA; but imagine if you're the one doing good and your teammates starts feeding, complaining, and spamming surrender -A game is almost never unwinnable, with teamwork and possibly luck (enemy team throwing) you can always win, or atleast learn how to play under a disadvantage. As long as you take something from a loss, it's not a complete loss

Also, I don't know if it applies to you, but if another player makes mistakes; kindly correct them or don't say anything at all. Saying, gg feeder "player_name" pls report, isn;t going to make him or you play any better. Just try to improve yourself, even if you're the one making the least amount of mistakes, and you will eventually improve as a better player. Plus getting agitated over a player you're probably never going to play with again is just a waste of your time.
