"As for my teammates... yeah, they feed, dont gank, and sometimes throw games, but my team is my team and there is always something more i could have done to prevent a loss. I could have wrecked lane harder and roamed to help the other lanes. I could have counterjungled while i was pushed in mid to slow their jungler down. should have taken exhaust to shut that fed adc down. should have taken tp to help with that level 6 drag fight. When i calmed down and thought about it there was always i could have done as any role to help my team in the losses and I took them all to heart so that i'd never forget and blame my team, I just wish i'd have done this sooner."

Had a 1700 rated player message me in game saying that this paragraph right here is exactly the mentality needed to get better at this game and that he wanted to congratulate me on understanding what I need to know to be a good player.

A brilliant read.
Touched my heart.

This post displays exactly the kind of mentality that will get you to gold elo.

Thanks guys.

Good read. Hell. If you approach Team work with that attitude, you could become good at anything that requires team-work which happens to be most things.

One small spelling error

"I took them all to heart so that i'd never forget and blame my team"

You are pretty much saying that you will never forget to blame the team.

Ive just played a game earlier at 1.2k elo... It felt like playing with level 20s. We have no ad carry, have a wu/ taric bot lane, kass mid who rushed a lichbane with no ap and a kayle top who died every 2 mins against a teemo. They had vlad and graves bot... I jungled darius. I was 3/0 at about 20 mins with about 80 cs while bot lane was 1/3 taric and abput 2/4 wu with 20 cs... We started winning teamfights thanks to me but then these noobs start getting caught. We lost the game because my teammates were brain dead, and tell me its not my teammates fault...
