I rarely if ever meet toxic people anymore. I think Riot has some additional matchmaking going on ... that and I only play Teambuilder.
People have no legitimate reason to be toxic in team builder. They got the role they wanted, the champion they wanted, and the game means nothing.

Been kinda ragey today and probably got 4x reported my last game, surprised I havent been banned for some time. The quality of teams today is just bad. Holidays ftl.
I feel the same way too, so I switched my play style around. Normally I play the "meta" or try and help the team, tanky jg/top laners etc. When I see the teams are going full retard, they are usually out on both sides so I bring the demoralize them carry style champs out. Rengar, etc. Nothing quite like showing up and destroying someone in the blink of an eye to see a surrender vote follow shortly after.

I've seen Annie mid carry so many games lately.
Yea Annie mid is coming back strong. Have played against so many Annies lately and even had someone rage at me for not banning Annie one game. (We won and I still don't ban her by default).

If someone picks Annie my go-to is usually Syndra. Can toss Tibbers at her and if I stun her first she'll die before she can do her combo. The Flash+Stun is still bullshit though. Definitely been 100-0'd more than a handful of times this past week or so. My last 20 games I played against 4 annies and went 2-2. Also 1 game had an Annie support on my team and we lost. But that means Annie has been in 25% of my games recently.

She fell out of style for a while but the tibbers bomb is still way strong and her ability to easily charge up and keep a hard stun makes her pretty darn safe and she is great once team fights start landing a flash tibers on the enemy team can wipe them all out pretty fast if you have your combos up.

I play Master Yi quite a bit in the jungle...
Excellent build. It crushes in Silver 5.

Speaking of Silver 5, is it just me or are the players in Bronze 1 significantly better than Silver 5? Whenever I get a Bronze 1 in my game they crush the silvers. It's kind of dumb.

Most recent game on Amumu, jungle tank build. Went Jungle item / Cinderhulk -> Mobi boots -> Righteous Glory -> Recognized the enemy team was mostly AP and built Abyssal -> Banshee's -> Frozen Heart.

Any advice on itemization? Also, all of my lanes lost and I was getting so much shit from my Vayne for not joining in to bail her out of dumb fights. Thresh and Vayne constantly bitched at me all game. Is it my responsibility to join losing fights and die for the team when I know there's no chance of winning? Because all three of my deaths were from early team fights and I figured out really quick my team didn't know wtf they were doing. Decided to farm up a few levels, then systematically crush top lane, mid, and finally group to take mid inhib. Ended up giving up a few dragons early because my team was losing so hard.

B1 people have hope they'll climb to S5; S5 people are pissed that they're in elo hell and probably don't try as hard. Never take any in-game criticism at face value; its always vitriol spewed by someone mad at themselves for doing something retarded. Jungle will get the brunt of the rage. The best thing for you to do is swallow your pride and apologize and type other stuff like "sorry Vayne, I'll get there next time" etc etc. Team morale in solo queue is the most precious resource there is.

Junglers always get the most shit, especially when all 3 lanes lose. Your itemization seems fine. They weren't really too much AP though. Yi & Lucian are some serious AD threats. FH is pretty decent though. Either that or Randuins. I like Randuins since Health goes with your Cinderhulk but FH has Mana and CDR which helps a lot too. Considering the enemy team had both Lux & Morgana you should probably have gone Mercs instead of Mobis. The tenacity is a lot more valuable. Mobis maybe helped you land some bandages though so idk. Personally I only ever really build Mobis on champs that need to "catch". As Amumu you kinda run around fights slowly drowing people and Mobis don't help with that, Swiftness or Mercs/Tabis would help team fights better.

Lol, just glanced at r/leagueoflegends and saw this post:In silver 5 right now and im feeling very demoralized. I want to get better at mid lane and learn how to snowball my lane lead to carry others who are maybe falling behind. : summonerschool

Imagine that attitude after a few more months of demoralizing stagnation.

Ya, like Fawe said, jg will get the most shit, but you also need to analyze. As bad as that bot lane was if you were there with an ult would that have maybe turned the fight around? Just look at what you can improve on and move it along. Vayne goes in the category along with Azir/Yasuo that at the bronze/silver elo I would 90% of the time dodge the game then deal with them as most of them are bad so I rather just take the elo loss upfront then waste 30m. It is all about mindset and my mindset isn't good when I see them on my team so I just don't bother.

It's so silly how Dekar can just roll high diamond/master players with Rengar. Caught his last game last night and he just roflstomped the other team when his bot lane and jungle were getting shit on.

Ehhh fuck it. Need to go to bed at 10pm anyway and for some reason the draft link doesn't work for me, tried firefox, chrome & ie, no luck. Back to streaming netflix until I go to bed because that'll apparently work. Hope my autodraft team kicks ass, although I'm a little sad because I hate autodrafters.

Then right as I'm about to post this it loads in...

First pick wildturtle & 2nd pick froggen? Wtf. Oh well, time to try to fix this trainwreck.
