Guardsman Bob is the fucking shit, love that man...

Bob is good, but everyone listed up there is actually GREAT, not good. I'm good. Most of the top 500 is good. There are only a few GREAT players in this game and they're pretty much all easily recognizable as better than good players.

How to achieve the effects of playing solo q without actually playing:

basically, everyone on CLG, the koreans and TSM is great and then a couple others are great.

solo queue is so exciting. I first pick pantheon. Janna + Panth + Ashe + Shaco + Kass. I tell the team that I'm going to solo push since we can't fight for shit since our comp is complete and total ass. Team proceeds to split up and die repeatedly.

Janna: OMG PANTH Y U NOT WITH TEAM U Y WE LOSE!
*I try to explain how our team can only win with split pushing*
Janna: OMG, WE LOSE WHEN YOU PLAY FOR YOURSELF, IF YOU PLAYED TEAM WE WIN!
*ults to initiate a fight, we get aced*
Janna: OMG, U SO BAD NEVER PANTH AGAIN! LOOK IRELIA, SHE PLAY WITH TEAM THAT'S Y THEY WIN!

I'm glad to hear more people are victims of the blame game despite playing well. This happens to me constantly on Ryze. Despite being the only one on the team doing what it takes to win, I'm blamed for things like someone else running into a fed Jax and dying, or the fact that I dont do enough damage to a Poppy that has ulted someone else.

The best was at the end of a 4v5 game I had no mana when we made a last desperate push because we had just scored an ace and it was the only way we'd win. We got one nexus tower down and then their fed Yi was up and dominated the two other players with me. The whole team was about to be up and I ran away. I was told that if I had stayed and auto attacked the other nexus turret which was at 40% health, we would have won the game right there. It wasnt just one person either, it was the entire team saying this.

I hear all the time about how you're supposed to be able to carry bad players if you're good enough, but I just don't see how, especially on certain champions. Even if I'm killing the whole team over and over if it's 4v5 or I have someone constantly feeding, it's nearly impossible for me. And of course if Im playing Ryze he doesnt have much backdoor ability.

Just killing people isn't enough to carry a team, you need to guide them to victory by telling them what to do and when.

If you know you're making the right calls and they still refuse to listen, well then the game is obviously out of your hands so its not much to get worked up about.

This doesn't always work. I had a game last night in which I was directing the team very well. We had lanes pushed, we had the appropriate number of people come to defend towers, etc. I even got them to bait a fight at Baron and it turned out very much in our favor where we got the 2nd mid lane tower and took baron. However, when 4/5 of us had baron and I called for all of us to go mid and slowly push but not to commit to a team fight at the tower (out team comp was horrible for it) you can guess what happened. The other team proceeds to ace, pushes to win, and then my team starts crying retarded comments while failing to recognize how the fuck they screwed up. The one good thing about this was like many games when my team is a bunch of retards who then start to blame others at the score screen the other team chimes in and defends me lol.

Saying that it isn't worth getting upset about when they don't listen and it is out of your hands isn't worth much imo. I would rather not lead and just pewpew and then not be upset if we lose. If I am putting forth real effort to win and my team derps all over then I'm going to be upset. Like I've said in the past, this is not an Elo issue for me but a competant player issue. I couldn't care less what rating I am at.

Got to love the people who always go "Enjoy being stuck at xxxx ELO you fucking scrub" when they themselves are the same ELO as you and you're not the reason you lost the game. Like, had a panth try to 1v5 3 times in a row and blame me as lux for "not doing enough damage" when I had 500 AP + voidstaff. Like, holy fuck, I'm sorry I cannot nuke through almost 10k+ worth of HP in 3 seconds while my team has to 4v5 every fight b/c panth thinks he's Rambo. Of course that alone wasn't the only reason we lost but it made huge disadvantages for us and we had to try to hold a tower as 4 and lost complete map control each time he'd do that.

I had a very rare thing happen last night. Solo q'd, one teammate says "here's info for my vent server hop on". And suddenly all 5 of us were on vent.

We wrecked the other team ezmode.

I think too many people take stuff for granted when in actual fact you should make it explicitly clear to them. I used to figure ppl would understand the basic concept of a split push, now I know that I have to tell them not to engage as 4 until they send 1 or 2 people away to deal with the split pusher, at which point that split pusher can ult back to the main group for a 4v5 (in the case of global ults).

There are too many examples of things like this, like who should be doing what in a team fight etc, and don't even try to explain to your team that your team is suited to kiting more than straight up engagements.

But yeah, it also makes me wonder all the stuff that other people take for granted that I'm too derp to know.

if it were actually Rambo, he would've scored a Pentakill and come out with 10 stacks on both his SotO and Leviathan.

meh, my solo queue elo is tanking a little atm as I try to work on role playing, specifically playing support. I dunno what it is about Janna, but I just can't play that bitch.
