want to know how to not snowball an enemy team mate, don't feed him.
Am I the only one that gets this new concept I just thought of?

If you blame your team mate for causing the snowball THATS EVEN BETTER because then you get to surrender and not play with the nub.

<sarcasm>Oh, if only i had thought of that. Well that solves all our problems</sarcasm>
Its not that we haven't thought of it its just that its not as easy as it sounds. Against made-to-be-beaten computers, sure. Against other intelligent players, not so much.

It does solve your probelm.

If someones snowballs your either part of the reason or the reason or not the reason.

Which is it?

IF YOUR THE REASON - its your fault stop feeding

IF YOUR PART OF THE PROBLEM - basically the same as the first stop dying

IF YOUR NOT THE PROBLEM - surrender if you know your going to lose

IF YOUR NOT GOING TO LOSE - then play the game

Tell me what is wrong with what I just said?
Your either the problem or not.
This is not new its in any game ever created

I think the point is, ICEN, is that you're basically just saying L2P.

and, no, l2p is not a valid piece of advice to people who are experiencing difficulties.

But YOU need to look for a teacher who can help you or look at verious post made in these tread.

I've come back multiple times in games, but I do hear the poster's side. It seems like it's slightly out of wack within the realm of being able to turn things around with a new strategy. Harder than other mobas I've played. Then again, I don't like any moba much except smite because of the 3rd person and controls. :)

there needs to be snowballing SO THAT SOMEONE CAN WIN. you cant just expect one side to be completely pummeling another to finally say okay we lost.

ESPECIALLY WITH THE NEW RESPAWN REDUCTION. Its so much harder to end a game now. you actually need good cordination. please dont give me this snowballing ********.

Whenever i expeirence crazy snowballing it is absolutely because one side got SEVERLY OUTPLAYED. Like if we were to watch someone die 3 times during laning phase which is WHAT LK 10 MINUTES MAX? Seriously dont complain about the first 10 minutes of the game thats why some people are so bad at this game. they only care about laning phase. BUT ANYWAY if we were to watch you die 3 times in laning phase then YOU CAN PROBABLY INFER THAT YOUR OPPONENT IS MUCH BETTER THAN YOU.

I have came back from A **** TON OF GAMES. But some games I am willing to surrender at 10 minutes. WHY? because i can judge my teammates skills and if it looks like they have no idea how to win a game than obviously if they cant get through laning phase than they are ****ed when it comes to mid game coming back and farming.

When you lose laning phase terribly. you have to stay back and farm and grab kills where you see your opponent go out of positioning. But so many times i see my team diving for some dumbass reason and throw the game even more. I have played games where WE LITERALLY CAME BACK... but in the end my team decided to throw again. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS CASE VARIES BECAUSE IT REALLY DEPENDS ON HOW BAD YOU ****ED UP LANING PHASE. (ANOTHER EXPERIENCE I HAVE WAS FROM WATCHING A SOLO RANKED GAME, THEIR ANHUR WENT LIKE 0-5 AND THEY STILL MANAGED TO COME BACK BECAUSE EVERYONE THERE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY)

So before you go and say the game has some ridiculous problem such as this I have to points i would like to make:

1) The game needs to ****ing end somehow.
2) I am 99% sure you lack the qualified knowledge to make such a ridiculous arguement because somewhere along the lines you have made a terribly obvious miscalculation but you failed to realize it.

This isnt trying to be an ******* this is being as truthful as possible.

why would you ever go 1v1 joust for your first time trying out a god?

Good Question let me explain myself, ok so well I would want to try him out in Conquest like how I usually do when I get a new god(I only do this when that new god is a mage, any other role or type of god I will try out Conquest first)

But I noticed that if you feed in a game when you have teammates they will rage at you for feeding,
So I decided to just try him out in joust so that no one will rage at me if I feed since I'm fighting alone so I can get too used to him while rage-free

And besides I did still win so I guess it all work out in the end :)
