What are you supposed to do when your team feeds

I'm mid lane lux. Im not winning my lane, but im not losing. maybe 5-10 cs behind, but 0-0-0. Then all of sudden the bot lane who is losing their lane decides that they aren't having it bot lane anymore cause they are losing hard, so they decide to come mid and feed the mid laner. Now all of a sudden shes 3-0 and Im still over here 0-0-0. What is the right strategy after this. I know you cant win them all, but these teams I'm getting. The support (who went zac by the way if that says anything) was 0-7 and the adc 1-9... like this happens to me more than it doesn't... Like i'm sorry I just feel from s3 to s5 in 2 days, because of these teams...

The trick is to roam to those lanes when you can. As lux, you should be able to clear a wave very quickly and then roam bot or top to help them get rolling. Don't be afraid to fall a few more CS behind, if you can get top rolling even though bot is throwing hard you might be able to get back into the game. If Top is able to get ahead they will be able to help you out in mid. When you see a lane falling, you have two choices. 1: Go help them and get them back into it before they get too far behind. 2: Help the other lane (lanes if jungler) get ahead so that they can counter balance the teams. In the game you described, it sounds like they were falling behind for a long time (unless they really bad/intentionally feeding and somehow fed 16 kills in under 15 minutes). When a lane loses the first round it can be hard for them to get back into it without help. The first fight they lost bot probably meant they needed help to get back into it. That was the window for option 1. After 3+ loses in lane the lane is often too hard to recover (sometimes true after 2 loses) so go with option 2. If you can't gank the lanes in anyway then late game is the aim, focus on wave clearing so that the enemy can't easily siege your towers (so I guess 3 options), Lux is really good at that (keep using Ult to clear waves) so try your best to focus the waves and wait for farm to help the losing lane get a couple items. The problem with this is that it is a lot harder to do then the first two options because you have to keep the team alive a lot longer.

Why do you want to be rewarded with a win for going even?

This game is 98% luck. You can't do anything.

I've ran across this same scenario a lot in recent games. You get into a game and then someone on your team has 2 deaths. They go on tilt and start feeding or do not listen to other team mates. The only thing I could tell you is that play under turret as to not try and give any more kills. Thereafter try and build your teams confidence up by being positive. It doesn't seem like a big deal but a little positive can change the outlook of a team that is on tilt. Also just try and be confident when you are in this situation (I know this can be very hard). But think of your personal performance.
