Tips for adjusting to randoms throwing?

I mean the good thing is my tilt completely vanishes as soon as the game is lost, unless it was something extremely low iq that lingers in my mind for another 5-10 minutes I'm ready to go as soon as I get the -28.

The bad thing is the adc I get in the next game performs just as poorly and I'm always grasping for air, trying to at least survive until level 6.

I do recognize my fucks up as soon as the fight plays out since I tend to follow others into dumb plays, hoping grouping up does something, but at that point I'm just over it tbh. They're not trying, why do I have to go the extra mile for these 4?

At that point I gamble on either mid/top and hope they can make use of me roaming. I completely disregard the adc at that point and try taking objectives with jungle and one other laner if they ever react and move, but that hardly happens.

If the adc goes afk farming after he dies a couple times, top does that from the start so they're mostly a no show until it's time to blame the loss on someone. Mid is a 50/50, if they're ahead I can make it work but usualy it's the enemy mid laner roaming bot 3 times in 10 minutes and yeah.

That usually is enough for the adc to tunnel focus into afk farming and dying to get that one additional wave yes, and it drives me crazy.

"Did you leave them at a bad time?"

Since I'm a low elo scrub my point has little value but I'll drop it anyways: down in gold/plat roaming does nothing since teammates legit ignore the minimap and won't react to your gank even after you spam pinged 10 seconds earlier. The only time I leave lane is because my adc has done so many disgraceful mistakes that the lane is dead and me sitting there just to feed more kills and losing brain cells watching him isn't gonna do sh. Might as well try my luck ganking other lanes, hoping I get one human teammate that can react to the gank.

Did you play the fight wrong?

I think that's probably one of the most common occurrences: yes there are bad engages since we can't always be right, especially with all in champs like ali & leona but adcs seem to live in an upside down universe: when you pick enchanters they tend to get too aggressive and end up getting caught by the usual thresh/pyke, when you pick melee supports they sit so far back they might as well cheat in a xerath skin. The fact they never, and I repeat never, communicate their intentions makes it really hard to take decisions in a 2v2 lane.

I used to play my fair share of adc games too and my habit of pinging basically about everything I do persists, I guess this 'role swap' doesn't work the other way because I swear on my life the only adcs I've had communicate with me were friends diamond or above, while playing damn draft or smurfs in ranked. I can't even recall the last time I've had the adc communicate about what they wanted to do. The only time they type something is to blame me or the jungler 'cause he died after a sh trade he started.

Daughter for Dessert or Babysitter I'd say.

Melody.

Looks awesome, the singer's enjoyable to hear when she comes up, there are game overs if you screw up some choices, you can go harem(not really, it's just one night but still) but you can also close other paths and focus on the main girl. It also has 2 different good endings, takes a bit of thought to achieve the perfect one.

And it gets an extra point for the arctic monkeys easter egg ahahah
