My girlfriend has been wanting to play League with me for a long time, and for a long time I've been rather skeptical about just hopping into a normal with here and giving it because she is only level 6 and she is rather new to moba and competitive games in general.
So we wanted to duo because I could probably keep things fun. She locks her favorite Champ katrarina, I hard random Vayne. Cool.
Our team proceeds to rage at here for "instalocking a mid" even though we communicated to them that she was bottom with me. From there, enemy laner was Gold 4 Riven who started Red Elixir. So obviously... she got smashed. Our top laner, Jungler, and "Support" (he picked Garen? Apparently Kat supoport no good, but Garen is. OK.).
Our proceeds to rage her out of the game and bring her to tears because Riven Comes back to lane after FB with 2 Dblades and redpot still up and our Jungle Shaco going full Rice Mode. She didn't even feed hard, went 0-3 in 15 minutes despite playing against a vastly better player in a role she not comfortable with against a Champion she never seen before. Meanwhile our Garen is somehow allowed to be 0-4-0 in lane in same perioid and no one gives a flying fuck because in same period of time I 6-0-0 on Vayne.
I pretty pissed.
If you play with someone like that, always create a new account. Do you really want to send someone who is new to the game and doesn't even have runes and masteries into a game which will probably end up being ~silver to gold niveau? That is no fun for anyone involved.
If you semitroll those lowlevel games, or at least try not to influence them to hard, you can avoid ending up on smurf island, though that will probably still happen after some time.
Then tell her that half the guys you play with are those that got banned on their previous accounts because they are assholes, and just to mute everyone as soon as they say one retarded thing. I would never, ever play on my main account with someone who has just started the game, that is the best way to destroy any fun for them and make them stop playing.

Yeah. I'd also advice playing bots to begin with.

Yeah, I wanted to play with bots too, what we have been doing for the most part. She told me she wanted to play with me. I wanted to hop on a smurf too, but I was told I was being silly.
But yeah, thats how that is going from now on.

lose a 75 minute game because trist decides to farm instead of participating in the teamfight

I'm stunned by people's attitudes in normals. Last night I had a Malz rage at me for taking farm midlane while he was back at base (mind you he wouldn't have gotten any of this farm anyway, I was just last hitting a wave that was pushing away from us anyway), and then rage in all chat because I took one wraith while he was farming wraiths. I was support Nunu...
but we hadn't lost a tower, had a kill score of 23-9, and had taken every dragon. Not to mention it was blind pick normals. I've never seen someone so salty for no reason. I can understand getting frustrated in a ranked game, but losing your shit over one wraith when you can practically farm champions you're so far ahead is nuts (and hilarious).

Fucking low elo is so terror.
Malph feeds a blue buff at level 3, and then dies again to amumu, then dies again to my opposing mid laner.
I still win lane, but it's only on CS. All other lanes getting absolutely trashed. Can't win game. Team too heavy, even when up 100cs on everybody else.

Yeah, some people are REALLY protective of their lane, and get REALLY mad if you touch it. I will never understand that. The worst i had was a guy going afk after i pushed lane into turret after a lvl 3 2v2 top which resulted in 2 kills for him and 1 kill for the enemy jungler. He then came back at minute 20 to tell me "I hoped you learned your lession!" And shout at me a bit more.

ZZZ. Why is ranking up my smurf so fucking hard. I just wanted to hit plat with my smurf but what do you know. I'm in Gold I and I'm FP ahead of 4x plat IIIs. Getting to the point where I can't just pick randomly and win the game ==;

Whats even better: losing promo to Plat III after crushing lane twice as Garen vs. Warwick(soft counter) and Yorick(hard counter and bully) and ending both games 7-3 for a nice 0-2 promo fail. Doesn't matter if you get crushed in lane against someone you should counter, just yorick ghost the 10-0 graves on your team and just relax

I don't even understand how I can play so shitty all the time. Like, I'd have a decent streak of games for awhile then I'd just fall off a fucking cliff. I've perpetually been on tilt the last two days and it's so infuriating. I've felt sorry for almost all of my teams my last 6 games or so, regardless whether or not we've won. Feels like every game I'm a freaking stone tied to my team's legs.

I was at this point on my main for awhile, eventually got to the point where 3-4 point gains were overwhelmed by 6-10 point losses even though I was Gold 1 playing with Plat IV-PlatII and my MMR tanked back to Gold 1-PlatV level. It's w/e though, guess RIot decided I didnt deserve Plat anyways.

Not quite the same thing.
I wasn't hit with diminishing returns at all in gold I. 0 clamping. I was gaining 26-28 points the entire way up from gold IV including in gold I. In the handful of games that I actually lost, I lost 4-6 points.
I'm a diamond player, it's just annoying that it's much much harder than it should be to get through promo series when I'm playing people 3-4 tiers above the bottom of a division.

I love people who call a role and link their lolking ranked stats profile like its supposed to solidify their call. I YAM 64% RENEKTON WIN RATE LOOK ME UP Then proceeds to feed and let his lane roam to mid and bot and not even get towers
|
God damn it, 20 points from promo matches, then the universe decides to throw a cruve ball and give me a losing streak. Why, oh why won't you let me be Plat?
