How to never go on tilt, and do better

Blame your team. I started doing that. Every game i lose, unless it was me who fucked up, i blame my team. They call me toxic, and its getting me reported. That i don't get. All I'm saying in chat is "well, i'll just chalk this one up to bad teammates." Then, when they argue with me, i mute them all. Because i know it's them. Why else would i have the most cs, best score, and be the only one to upgrade trinket? So, when i realized that that was a common occurrence each game, instead of blaming myself and looking at what i can do better, i realized, not every game is winnable, and most games i lose at my current level will be due to my teammates. I say that to myself now, and I find myself never frustrated with league, and I'm climbing slowly, winning more games, and doing better overall, because i like to prove that it is them, not me. Now i know that many on the boards will say "If you truly are better you will climb, and instead of blaming your teammates, look at what you can improve on." The reason i've found that that is bullshit is because i can play a perfect game, and still lose because my teammates are bad. People will argue with me. I've got a challenge. Add me, duo with me in normals, or in ranked if you can, and tell me to lose the game, and i guarantee you will lose. You can't carry if one person on your team is a fuck up. So, just blame your team - don't flame them with stuff like "OMG FEEDING NOOB UNINSTALL AN KILL YOURSELF %%%GOT", just say, "well, my team cost me this one". Then when they argue with you, mute them, because, if you're like me, you're right.

Don't get me wrong, i have games where I'm the one fuck up. Then i don't blame my team. But when I'm doing everything right, when I'm warding, helping other lanes, have awesome cs, never died once, and the enemy lee is 7/0 at ten minutes, well, i blame my team. If i fed my lane opponent and they end up very ahead of me, well, then of course i don't blame my team.

And this isn't to say that you don't still need to be self critical, you do. Correct your mistakes and get better. But if you lose, it's not on you all the time. It's on your team sometimes.

Tl:dr, you can blame your teammates when they deserve it.

What do you guys think? This makes sense right? I've been doing it and it's been awesome.

650 ranked games and Bronze 4 means it's definitely not your teammates.

Its fine to blame your teammates but there's no reason to type it in chat. If you think your team sucks you can shout it all you want, think it all you want and complain about it all you want, just don't type it in chat.

Why? Because while some games aren't winnable there are a lot that are. Being toxic to your team doesn't do anything but distract them from winning and put them on tilt. Plus, typing in chat how bad your team is just wastes time. You really think that telling them they are bad is going to change anything? Absolutely not. Its wasted time and effort and is only going to result in fewer comebacks and more throws for your team.
