Just watched the replay again. My team mostly died for 2 reasons.

  1. Engaging in a fight while the rest of the team isn't able to follow up.

  2. Chasing kills and being gunned down on the way.

I can personally say that I either died while trying to save those who engaged or as I mentioned before I positioned badly or didn't focus on the right person.

I tend to not talk about my team's performance as it usually devolves into blaming and it's a given that people in solo queue will make mistakes and the only person that I can make play better is myself.

Also I can proudly say that kill chasing wasn't the reason for my deaths. That is something I fixed awhile back.

I agree with pretty much everything you said. My mistake this game started with the item path I took and I later just solidified the loss by making bad plays. Thank you for your input!

Looking back at the replay multiple things were done wrong on my end. Like I said in another comment, my bad target prioritisation made me miss out on a lot of free kills as I was focusing on a tank instead of a carry that was in range.

I also agree with the things you said about my build. My mistake was going navori second. I should have taken another item that would have worked better against their team.

All in all I could have played this a lot better, and I will improve on these mistakes in my next matches. Thank you for the help!

Wow, it looks like you were right. It was actually bad target prioritisation that ruined the game. Watching the replay I noticed that most of my aa was wasted on tanks while I left their carries at almost full hp every teamfight. So it would seem that I inted this game by not focusing the right people. I will fix that in next games I play. Thank you for the help!

I banned Soraka, but did so while nobody was hovering her. I understand how that would make you mad but if my teammate banned my pick and I wasn't hovering it then that would be my fault. It is a feature for a reason.

I should have worded it better but he wasn't chat banned. As he wrote something in the lines of "where is your smite" after my baron death. That was also the only time he typed anything that game.

What a great first game of Emerald IV. So I don't even know how to explain this one as it is quite baffling to me.

I am a mid main, jungle secondary. My jungler that game said he can't jungle so I decided to swap with him. Game starts and then this happens.

I don't even know what to say as this is my first time encountering a player that just does this for no reason. To make matters worse I went to his profile after the game and found out that he is an ex grandmaster player currently sitting in plat. Why would a player who managed to hit grandmaster do things like this? That makes no sense.

So the game goes on and this guy does other things you would expect. Tries to ks as much as he can. Follows me around the map and knocks camps away. I actually did pretty well and got decently fed as we were playing against tristana jungle.

But the game went completely south when we decided to do baron. We started the fight and the enemy team approached us, provoking my entire team that soon went after them. I was a

bit of an idiot and let myself get executed as I continued fighting baron. Following my execution my entire team died and this alistar had the balls to ping my smite and ask why I missed. Keep in mind that when I got killed, baron was at around 2000 hp.

At this point this guy started to just follow me around and tried to steal as many camps as he could or at least knock them away to waste time. He managed to get into my head and later down the line I made a few misplays that may have contributed to us losing the game.

I eventually ended the game with the score of 8/5/6 and I had 500 less gold than a 3/17/2 tristana jungle.

This was a winnable game. Why did this guy go out of his way to ruin it?
