one of my friends who plays dota started playing LoL because his friends started playing LoL from starcraft 2. so most of them are pretty new, none of them are really serious, and i try to teach them what i can while really just trying to tell them to enjoy playing the game. and while playing with them i try and use some of my weaker characters so i can learn a little bit more about them.
sometimes things happen and you just say, well, that's part of the learning process, they only have like 15 games under their belt.
however, there's this one guy... level 20-ish, and his communication is god-awful. he's not very good, he's loud, he's literally trying to micro one of our newer players to obviously no success, and if his calls aren't confusing they're really poor calls.
for example, yesterday i was solo top and i killed the laner in lane phase with no towers down, and then over vent i hear: "EVERYBODY'S MISSING! EVERYBODY BACK OFF RIGHT NOW! BACK OFF!" and i peer at the minimap and enemy mid is still there, and the botlane and (obviously) jungler are missing, and botlane is pushed to enemy tower.
or my other friend asking me what items to get on amumu. "what items should i get? i'm thi--" "GAREN GO IN WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RUN AT THEM AND SILENCE AND THEN RUN BACK OH MY GOD" "what item were you talking about? "the--" "BACK OFF NOW BACK OFF YOU ARE WAY TOO CLOSE" "the what? i like to get abyss--" "GO IN NOW SHE'S WEAK WE CAN TOTALLY GET HER USE YOUR ULTIMATE"
we started baron because i knew there were no wards and cait went bot. we got it down to 1/8 health when enemy leona starts creeping in. "RUN THEY'RE COMING WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING"
but it's okay... i just quietly carry as top-lane poppy and try to help my friends with any questions they have...

First game on the new patch.
Duo bot lane. The adc is DC'd at lvl2 and come back 30min later when everyone is lvl14. We were actually winning the 4v5. He comes back and loses us fights and we lose our adv with a 5v5 teamfight.
Losing streak from last night continues...

lol I have a friend like that, he's not that bad a player and we enjoy playing with him but he literally gives a running commentary of what we need to do in fights, pretty funny (And sometimes annoying) to listen to.

I duoed with Wave last night and lost all 3 we played together. Fathers and commentators too heavy.

The throws.
We are way ahead. Just aced them, and got an inhibitor tower. They are respawning. I ping back. Ez and Ahri stay because they want inhib. They don't get it. They die. Enemy gets baron. They kill us under our turret with baron because ez gets caught by lux. Game lost. We were in firm control of the game until that point. Why don't you just listen to me and easily win the game? That Ez had a tendency to completely ignore retreat pings in lane before already. If you have no map awareness, turn on your sound. If you hear a retreat ping, look at the map. If it is at your location, retreat.
SERIOUSLY FUCK THIS BULLSHIT CRAP WHAT THE FUCK. 2 AFKS IN A ROW IN MY TEAM: WANT TO REJOIN TO MAKE STATISTICS WORK FOR ME AND GET THE 2.2 FREEWINS I NOW STATISTICALLY DESERVE: "THIS QUEUE IS DISABLED"

Wtf. Who the hell uses tethering for gaming? Unless you're currently suffering from a blackout, that's just flat out retarded.

yes, nothing boosts morale more than someone taking subtle digs at their teammate's competence during champion select

I don't understand people who say stuff like "What elo is this?" or "This is why you're in this elo". You're around the same elo as them. That's why you're in that game.

Someone begs me to let him go mid. He goes 0-7 as Yi. Then he buys a Soulstealer.

Some first pick Elise tried to steal my golems before I was even 6 (which just had their hitpoints buffed), and died in the process, giving Zed free reign over top because she missed out on a massive creep wave. Meanwhile Fiddlesticks is camping bottom, but I can't really be there because I have to cover top tower. -.-
Elise says: you're bad Jax. EFFF YOUUU.

Riot should implement some kind of questionary for people who want to play solo-duo ranked, 50-100 questions to confirm that one knows basics before switching from blind to rank (also can communicate in english even if its low level english). Yesterday I am 1st pick banning for our team. I am asking for some preferences what to ban, no response, not even the usual mid, no I am mid, then I am top, the other guy me top etc..just silence. At some point our 4th pick mentions: solo top and immediately after that the 5th pick says "jungla" (its not jungle you know, but understandable) and I am like all right they are alive. My turn comes to pick and I say: I go mid with pantheon (u know - new trend in S3) and no one says anything, which is strange coz most of the times people do not appreciate "out of the usual" picks. I lock pantheon and immediately after 2nd pick says: "my Gankplank (yes my not me)", and insta-locks GP, I ask where does he go with GP (we have top called and no one said anything), however, no response at all, nothing, neither from him nor from the others, just silence. Then the saga continues: 3rd pick takes soraka with ignite, doesnt respond to any questions why is that and what are his plans, no one else from the team says anything to him or to whomever. 4th pick takes Garen saying I said solo top i play Garen, nothing more nothing less, then our 5th takes Nocturne with smite and I am like at least one of them is normal and tried to ask him how can we reposition so we can build a normal team, he answered in russian, I closed the game. Period.
Riot please make some kind of filter for ranked, even if it filters just few is better than nothing. For the others there is always team ranked and normal

akacamilllo: i have akacamilllo: 9 years akacamilllo: old Antyee: you will manage to do it akacamilllo: and i **** your mather Antyee: you will be able to type a proper english sentence akacamilllo: soory Antyee: come on akacamilllo: not 9 akacamilllo: 8 akacamilllo: 8 years kid Antyee: do not be shy akacamilllo: **** your mather akacamilllo: so shame akacamilllo: :D
Why are people like this even playing? He was flaming all game long with terrible grammar, and rushing a RoA as jungle Nunu. He got it by the 27 minute mark. I don't know what prevents them from listening to others and learn from it. I think, typing "you may be right" isn't harder then typing "OMG 8 year old nobbb **** your matker".

Elise went Warmogs -> Frozen Heart -> Liandry's.
She has dealt more than DOUBLE the damage of her AD carry and about 30-40% more than any other player in the game. She left lane 1-0, she finished the game at 36 mins 3-1 so no, she wasn't fed. She is also the tankiest champion there by far and with the longest gap-closer and escape. At a siege on our inner she single-handedly poked our entire team down below half-hp with those homing spiders.
How is this shit not BROKEN.
EDIT: The Koreans have been playing her as support, I might have to get in on this shit while it lasts, want Thresh so badly though.

Had a game where my entire team fed despite the fact the enemy Shaco wasn't around for 20 minutes. They also all spoke in Chinese the entire time. We lost in 24 minutes after the Shaco connected. Blows my mind that people are this bad.
