Hello,

So I'm level 19 and I've recently gone on tilt going 5-15 in my last 20 games before that I had a pretty good win rate around the 60% mark. Anyways as of late I just seem to be get pairing up with people who just seem to lack common knowledge of the game, here are some examples.

:What's a sightstone? : Udyr you're ADC where's your Infinity Edge? : What's a scrying orb? : Glass cannon AP Soraka is the best. : I'm not coming to gank your lane I'm jungler I stay in Jungle. : What's wrong with Warding Totem 40 mins into the game?

Yeah and many more rookie mistakes like that, how do I work around this? Not to mention I lost some games to afkers

Thanks for reading, your opinon is much appericated.

**Of course! ** They are not even level 20! What else would you expect!?
There is a reason why matchmaking heavily favors players under level 30 being grouped together, those players are still learning. That's what the first 30 levels are for, learning League of Legends.

Well from a lot of the games I see you playing you don't seem to be building the right way. I know everyone has their preferences but like with the kennen game you need to build him full ap. Not like hybrid which it looked like you were doing idk. You probably know this already but you can just go to lolking.net to find builds for champions, great site if you didnt know it already. I know this doesn't always sound fun but you may want to try maining a champion. I hated this at first and i played a ton of different champions every game myself until i found a champ that fits my playstyle and I think is super fun, Rengar. Feel free to add me on league if you need help. I'm on often

You'll be playing with a lot of people with very poor game knowledge while you are under level thirty (and for a while after reaching it, to be honest), since most sub-thirty players are new to LoL and MOBAs in general. My main advice is to just be as polite and encouraging as you can while trying to make yourself better. Offer friendly advice on a single specific topic if you see someone is really struggling, making sure to always be clear and civil, and generally try to not say anything to another player that you wouldn't say to their face. Keep in mind that your game knowledge is also imperfect and that some of the advice you get from other players (especially the helpful variety of smurf) might be worth considering.
