RAGE Thread

[Jonathan Meer]

Its great when it happens, yeah, but I find it so demoralizing to reach for that tiny glimmer of hope and then get stomped anyway. And, since we're using it, nine times out of ten, that's exactly what happens. Then I'm demoralized and pissed off that I spent thirty minutes getting demoralized.

This. If it's obvious we're going to get fuckstomped (and by 'obvious', I mean our team is all 15s with mid-gear, while they're fully geared 18s), and the surrender vote fails, I hate (seriously hate, not just dislike, fucking penis in a blender, pubic hairs in my cereal milk, HATE) spending fifteen minutes getting fuckstomped. And I usually then don't feel like playing any more LoL that day, or if I do, it has to be a 'safe' game (intermediate bots, or a Chubbs only game, or ARAM).

If, instead, we surrender the clearly lost game, some face is saved (yeah, we're aware we're getting owned, gg folks, nj), some time is saved, and the next game can begin without feeling like shit.

If I'm playing Ryze and I haven't been able to get geared and the laning phase is over, then my game is over. I have become perfectly useless; little more than a valuable target. This happens much more rarely these days than it used to, but depending on the lane partner and my opponents, it DOES happen from time to time. And it fucking sucks.
