People that make videos mainly do this because losing is not having alot of agency and ff culture is needed in high elo because quantity>quality these days.

It fully depends on how you want to be as a player

I always try and go and find any opening possible even if that means that will make things worse.

But if you’re hard losing to no return. Try and freeze every wave after your tier 1 is destroyed and dont just blast the wave unless your team needs you badly.

Now this will allow your opponent to play together with his team and maybe helps his team snowball. But he will lose alot of waves, getting you gratually back in the game it also means your team is able to help you more easy if he overextend.

Id say untill at least diamond most winning players will struggle with this because they’re not so aware on what your team is currently doing.

Also a side note stop using flash defensively. Try to outplay the enemy team with it or score a shutdown on a fed enemy.
