Climbing the ELO Ladder

[quote=Searz][quote=Zeprido] Alright, so I just had 6 games in a row with trolls on my team in ranked. What do? Lets discuss this. The trolls make other teammates rage causing them to lose morale, with loss of morale comes lackluster gameplay. I've attempted getting them to calm down, ignore the trolls, or just work with what we have. Unfortunately none of this worked =/ I'm willing to put your ideas to the test next time this happens. =)[/quote] Yea, I'm curious about this too. I had a recent ranked game where I fed because I was lagging BALLS 90% of the time. I said I was sorry like 10times, but one of my teammates just wouldn't stop complaining about me ruining everything. I was saying that we should focus on doing everything we could to win even if we were behind, but he just kept complaining like a little bitch. Even when he got crazy lag and failed a lot too he didn't stop complaining. Matches like that makes me sad ;([/quote]

[quote=Adonikam][quote=Zeprido] So I just got blamed for a loss with players claiming that Ryze counter Vlad, I'm pretty sure he in fact does not, and GP, MF, and Kat, are great counters to vlad. So, question, Who counters Vlad? [/quote] yu're right, reduced ghealing and silence counters vlad, all those you mentioned + kassadin/leblanc can beat vlad pretty eaays[/quote]

[quote=EvilDice]Pretty much if you have a raging team mate the game is as good as over. Basically when this happens I say, "you know how we can win this? you shut the fuck up" After I say that I don't say anything for a long time, so if he retalliates I just keep quiet. I have actually seen a lot of comebacks happen(though admittedly, mostly in normals) when the rager finally shuts the fuck up. If that doesn't work and he is still raging the whole game, you have no hope and it's over.[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]Well you see, up until my recent losing streak, I've been able to calm down any raging teammates, creating a positive team attitude and high morale with them believing in our team. I guess some people refuse to listen to someone in a leadership role =/ @Trojan I was vs Vlad top lane, he was constantly pushing, was very hard to harass and farm at the same time with Ryze. Until I get my tear, my early game is very delicate with him. Our Rammus failed at jungling and didn't gank despite constant calls for it until I had already died twice, and even then he went in with low HP and died to Vlad. Very sad game for me.[/quote]

[/quote] XD try playing a normal first and if people listen to your leadership there they will do in ranked also (most likely) if not. then its probably best to leave the ranked games for a bit.[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]@dave It was completely successful in ranked up until yesterday.[/quote]

[quote=fifolek][quote=EvilDice] Pretty much if you have a raging team mate the game is as good as over. [/quote] well I just had a game where I was raging since the beginning because my team acted like retards, I was already pissed because of loosing like 6 ranked games before so I decided to play a free champion: Maokai, never played him before and well my raging made them stop focusing mundo, oh yeah my team wanted him so bad they didnt do anything else the first 40 minuts of the game, just focus mundo focus mundooooo, I literally could hear their thoughts lmao, good thing the enemies weren't that good either, so I could carry my team, wtf, although I was just one little step before going afk, good thing I went on playing [IMG]http://i54.tinypic.com/2qso4tg.jpg[/IMG] well ye actually it was my second game with him, first I just went afk due to yi 0/9 and one other noob just taking over my lane at level 3 -.- at the second game EVERYONE except me died atleast 11 times, mine and their team, so whatever you guys say, I freakin don't belong to this ELO[/quote]
