I queued a normal last night with friends at about 2am, I ragequit about 25 min in and didn't come back until about 40 min because one guy in our 4 man premade thought we could win for some reason. Anyway play out the game we lose obviously.

This afternoon I queue in ranked, forget to change my summoners to ghost/smite on Hec (I have flash/exhaust). I decide to be a good guy and just disconnected in loading screen. Relog into league, and I've been put into low priority queue for 5 games. Bit stiff I thought, but figured it'd only be 5 min per queue.

It is a fucking 20 min queue.

Some context, when I lived at my parents I had pretty bad internet so I didn't have a good disconnect record, and it had gotten to the point where I would get the 20 min queues if I disconnected for a full game. That is fair enough, had no issue with that. However for the past year I moved out and have a much more reliable internet connection. I even got a message in my client about two months ago saying how I hadn't disconnected from any games for a while and basically said 'gj'.

god im almost forced to become a adc mid 'main'

just wanting to play some support and my team hard ints every game that we just ff @ 20 triple inhib.

legit can only win games when I queue mid/adc and those are honestly my 2 most uncomfortable roles to play. however simply not being a feeding monkey in a high damage role is enough to win


seriously wtf is a luden's echo first liss that goes 0/9/1

we won, but seriously what the fuck

50 minute game

you're telling me my team bought literally 0 control wards the entire game? similar story with enemy team


wanna kms from playing in this clown fiesta of constantly ramming each other down 5v5 mid but we win because we have a yi yasuo maokai

if you buy 0 control wards in a game that lasts over 30 minutes the system should force you to watch a tutorial video on how to ward and why it is important

scales down to 20, 10 minutes as you reach diamond and master+

should be absofuckinglutely 0 reason you haven't bought a control ward past even 10 minutes

?

just look at the picture

the # with '14' is highlighted

that means it's me who bought 14 wards

my team (minus me) bought 0

the enemy team bought 5 total with their top buying 1 and their support buying 4


essentially I bought nearly 3x the amount of wards in the game compared to all other 9 combined.

what kind of tard would complain about team buying 0 wards when he buys 0 himself lol
almost offended you think im that tard

I don't know why people take criticism so poorly in this game. If you didn't know a certain champion can 100-0 you, that's fine, you didn't know. But if you repeatedly pick fights with a nuke then you're just a dumbass and need to be told so.

i get blamed by this brainless xin 1 trick for picking malz support when he goes xin adc

ints into them level 2 (them using 0 sums to kill him while we use all) and then blames my pick for not having synergy with his xin pick

proceeds to flame team all game then cry in all-chat about how team is flaming him when we just call him a dumbass for even attempting to blame others

what a POS

edit:

hate this lethality meta
games are so brainless. it's about who gets caught last after every asassin has 10+ kills at 30 min

every game has some iteration of graves zed pantheon quinn talon khazix

and its not like we suddenly forget the stupidity of camille rengar

Master Yi players... 1% actually good, 5% ignorant, 94% full-on Dunning-Kruger effect. Straight up ignored all map objectives to farm, then avoided all fights thereafter because they weren't all <100hp for the penta or something. Lowest damage in the game at 16k. I don't know how some players justify any part of their skill.

5-6 games in a row i've done nothing but trade farm with the top laner (who usually was a lane bully with me being a tank) and rarely getting a solokill of my own. so overall pretty decent. sometimes making good tp plays, but usually both using tp to come back to lane.

lose every single game before 30 minutes with a player or two feeding. or two teammates flaming each other to the point one afk's.

it's great to be a top laner in soloqueue. feel like its pretty much a completely different game than the league of legends I want to play.


might as well just play quinn top or something and just try to roam 24/7. what the fuck is the point of playing naut top or something when your team is 0/7 before you are even level 6

i'd rather play flex queue with some coordination. even though a bunch of my friends are soloq monkeys.


gah i've literally played as well as i could my last 2 games in particular. pretty sure smeb himself couldnt carry the game given the same situation.

naut vs darius, i dont give up any deaths, help my jungler get 4 kills off him, out CS, have him burn his tp and got a 0 for 4 at bot with my tp + infernal while saving top tower. still lose cause my monkey adc is 1/7 despite all that and my kat thinks suiciding into their inhib turret (when t2 is up) is smart. did i mention their yi just shreds me and specifically built tank shredder when i'm the only tank? fucking bloodrazor bork PD

gragas vs darius
dodge a jungle gank, out cs, get a solokill off his dumb play under tower, slowly scaling up as hes 0/0/0.
meanwhile tf is raging at my bot and jungler and starts running it mid. team just flames all game in chat as i watch our nexus fall.

awesome. honestly i am playing more than adequate at this ELO. i'm all about self criticism and improvement but holy shit something's gotta give here.

Aaaaaaaaaaargh.

Still on my Shen binge and we're destroying the first ~30 minutes by actually playing like a comp with Shen. Then we start winning so hard we lose as our mid and ADC appearently think that 30 minutes in my shield is going to save them and deliver me in time when they facecheck into Malzahar, MF and friends. We've taken ALL outer towers at this point and my pressure has resulted in multiple free drakes since our jungler plays around the fact I'm drawing so much attention up top.

All of a sudden our ADC decide it's my fault "from constantly splitting" (despite ALL fights we've won came from the numbers advantage Shen sorta sets up easily). It's certainly not his or Syndra's Dora the adventurer cosplay. I am so far ahead everyone it forces the enemy to send two members just to stop the push at this point I win the 1v2 situations if it's not under tower (actually didn't try a 1v2 towerdive so don't know if I'd win that too). The third time his newly invented and 'brilliant' frontline Jhin strategy causes him to die it's my fault since he needs me to peel (instead of the JANNA and GRAGAS he does his best Usain Bolt to run away from appearently).

How can you play smartly 30 minutes and then all of a sudden go full retardo.... Legit all he and Syndra had to do was dance around Baron and Elder when they were up and let me relentlessly split the opposite lane. How fucking hard can it be to just stay near our Janna/Gragas for peel and let your monsterously farmed toplaner kill the enemy backline like you did in the first 30 minutes.

This was literally the first someone in League triggered me, luckly there's a mute function otherwise I would probably have turned into Ragnaros the Firelord. What a way to end my sunday gaming time.

League is a special game where you can ignore/teach your teammates all game to focus on playing well, make one mistake, then get flamed for the remainder of the match which sucks since I love bantering with my team and feel like muting people defeats the purpose of playing a multiplayer game.
But seriously, playing before 9 pm on a weekday is toxic as hell. Never again.

simply another one of those days where i'm playing pretty well but cannot get a win for the life of me
lots of boosted teammates

i have enemy team honoring me for playing well in half the games and end up with most or 2nd most damage in the entire game as a tank top

lowest deaths on team, make tp plays when needed while enemy top feeds his ass and splitpushes all day

played all 4 games pretty well, still demoted.
averaged over a 5 KDA over those 4 games. most wards bought besides support. 2nd most or most damage as tank. 2nd or most kill participation. what more can i do.

edit:
and of course i randomly win when i go top kass against tryndamere. i quadrakill into easy gg. idk how the fk i won lane against a trynd as well. so sad that im in this elo

I just want to play a goddamn normal and unwind. Instead I get:

* "Support" Orianna who rushes Rabadon's and farms each wave
* Jungle Nunu that builds Bloodrazer
* And in my last lobby of the night, I'm greeted with "Hi I'm playing Smite Nunu Support not going to lane but will counterjungle and apply pressure"

god i hate people who are so objectively wrong but they are so stubborn about it


im playing soloq

our picks

1 jayce //2 nasus 3 soraka //4 ezreal(me) 5 khazix

vs 1 lucian 2 rammus // 3 ekko 4 ivern //5 poppy

as soon as we get into game my soraka support bitches about how the game is over and there is no point in playing because of the team comps. I say that yeah it'd be nice if we got some ap's in our later picks but it's fine we just have to play well and build last whispers/cleavers - full ad comps aren't that bad in current meta.

she tells me im a dumbass and that this is a typical plat level draft. that shes not going to tryhard and to just ff (this is before minions even spawn). she then points out that the jayce pick was retarded

im like what? jayce mid is a top tier pick right now and he was first pick dont blame him for picking it. we had multiple opportunities to pick ap like example rumble top, elise jg, ziggs bot, zyra brand support, etc.

questions me by asking me what my sources are and i say just look at pro play

tells me soloq has nothing to do with pro play (which totally contradicts her stance on drafts insta winning soloq games imo).

I ask what her source is that jayce mid is a retarded pick

she says champion.gg says 90% of mids played are ap

l o fucking l

she then basically sits at turret as I 1v2 the lane, even netting a kill cause the enemy bot are a bunch of monkeys

my jungler helps me out and we snowball the lane


I get my trinity force and muramana at exactly 20 minutes flat and carry hard. game ends at 26 with all objectives taken and losing only 1 tower from a last minute splitpush


people like that don't deserve the win, trying to tilt their own teammates from the getgo. the fact that shes an evelynn soraka 2 trick explains it all. no brain.

I know I shouldn't get baited into actually arguing these things but its such a strong pet peeve of mine. when people blatantly and unapologetically make blanket statements that are objectively false with often contradictory explanations.

have 3 support mains that somehow ended up top mid adc

we lose cause of vision

they bought 2 pink wards combined in a 35 minute game

literally lost from people getting picked from bush camps in our jungle

losing a game due to vision from 3 support mains :thinking:
super fucking tilting because I was reminding them all game to buy a pink but they flat out ignore it

should honestly just quit the game if you are a support main and dont buy more than 1 pink ward in a game



----


honestly had the most tilt inducing game ever

im playing at 4 am just to get 1 game of ranked after a long night of studying then go to sleep

i load into game, things are fine for first 5 minutes.

then all of a sudden my character stops moving and im just sitting in lane attacking minions. i see the enemy botlane walk up to me and kill me. my character dies and im shown a death recap while it says 'attempting to reconnect'. 5 seconds later im back in the game spawned at my base.

ok shit happens that sucks and lane is pretty much gone but whatever ill just farm

5 minutes later. it happens again. i check my ping and internet and it is super stable and to check i start streaming a youtube song to see if my internet is stable. no problems.

5 minutes later, i get a bugsplat. 3rd death.

this time I log in using the other client to see if that was causing any issues.

just a minute later, bug splat again. 4th death. 0/4 while enemy caitlyn is now 9/0

every time i 'd/c' i see everyone moving normally until i die then the game freezes til li respawn. youtube song keeps playing normally. i turn off the youtube now since the test obviously failed.

i go bot to collect empty farm. gp chases me as i retreat back into tower. he then just walks up to turret and kills me under turret while my turret isn't shooting him.
I ask him what the fuck happened that my turret wasn't shooting him. he gives me a ? and tells me turret is down.
lo and behold once the minions reach the turret they just pass by it and apparently it's dead while my client is telling me its up. thanks riot

team is doing well and we are able to get baron while they chase our malphite bot
i haven't disconnected for 10 minutes now great. i may be 0/6 with like half the farm but im still an ashe with utility while the rest of my team is quite strong. they also have a pretty much inting vlad who is 0/9

we go to push with baron. its 30 minutes into the game and a miracle we havent lost yet. infact we're in winning position

while sieging, bug splat! after 10 minutes of not having an issue it starts again

we lose baron buff and get aced.

team's raging at me. get ready for 1 last fight anddd bugsplat.


so yeah that was an awesome experience. not sure if this is one of riot's shitty bugs or if the internet had some freak situation where everything else is fine but league.
it's also 4am in the morning so I can't imagine the networks getting throttled or w.e

but yea just got raged on and had nothing to say but sorry my client is shit
honestly could do nothing to prevent this as my ping is totally fine and even if i went into custom i wouldn't spend 5 minutes there waiting for a bug splat.
