In the immortal words Jason Nesmith: "Never give up! Never surrender!"

I am not a pro player by any means, but i have see games where all your team has left is the nexus, and still turn it around and win. It might be rare but there is no sweeter victory than to win a hopeless game. Max lvl is 18, and once everyone is there, and had all their gear, its about skill not snowballing. Who is fed no longer matters. So the longer you draw out the game, the more likely you are to be able to turn it around.

The other thing is, I find it a cheap win when the other team surrenders. It's not a good win ever, its not fun to get going, just to have it end abruptly. As such I almost never surrender, allowing them to enjoy the victory they earned.

I only surrender when my team is being abusive while losing. When I can't stand listening to my teammates call everyone else n00bs and terribad (or worse), thats when I surrender and report.
