You forgot one type of feeder. The one that did just fine in lane, 1/1/2 or something, but ends up 2/9/12 because someone else on their team fed one particular champion who crapped on everyone from that point on. That's the feeder that isn't bad at the game, but ends up feeding because of a super fed person on the other team, and/or they try as hard as they can, but just end up always getting assists instead of kills, so it looks like they're feeding, despite doing fairly decent.

I had a game yesterday, I played Ahri against Xerath. Sadly for me, I disconnected right at the start. When I got back to lane a few minutes later, Xerath was level 5 with 40 cs to my 0. My tower was on half health. Nobody had gone to cover mid while I was gone. We had a premade Panth and Vayne top. (Don't ask, they just called it so we let them do it.) Despite my really unlucky start, I didn't feed. I even won a 1v1 against the enemy Ashe 3 levels down. I caught up in farm and levels to Xerath for a while, and had the most farm in my team after the 15:00 mark. I couldn't have been playing badly by comparison to the rest of my team. When I was lvl 4, Xerath went top while Vayne and Panth were busy killing the two top laners on the other team. I pinged up the river, I spammed fall back pings, I told them "MIA". But nope, they HAD to kill that Ezreal before backing off. Xerath gets a double kill. They blame me. Xerath roams other lanes, he gets kills. This continues. I finished that game with 6/7/6. That was the second least deaths on the team. The only person who had less was Riven, who was making words and pictures out of wards in our base for half the game. We lost horribly. Vayne went nuts towards the end, her language was so bad I'm not even gonna attempt to repeat it. Despite my score, despite my farm, despite nobody covering my lane, despite ignoring my gank warnings, I was apparently the feeder. Was I the feeder? If so, what kind of feeder do you call that?
