What is up with promos?

I swear to god with all honesty i get teamed up with feeders in almost every promo series i play. And i am not exaggerating. I am telling the truth. Most of the ranked games are easy as hell to play if i am not in my promotion series . It's always really easy to get there. But once i start the promo series i get people that play like they were high or something every game. Well not every game but most of the games i do.

Why is this? Don't tell me that this is not intentional. I almost never see a true retard in any ranked game otherwise. Sometimes i get streaks of ragers or feeders but otherwise ranked is pretty good for me. But the fucking promo series are hell to play. There is no way that i have this much of bad luck. Every promo series i do is a question of carrying feeders or letting them lose the game.

There is just no way that it happens by chance.

To get to promos you are on a winnign streak and thus they put you with others that are either neutral or a losing streak to "balance it out" at least that is the only ideology I could think of!

That's fucked up How are you supposed to find your own place if you get dragged down intentionally

You dont. The shitty matchmaking & ladder system intends to draw players down rather than get them to where they should be. Rather than giving you people of higher MMR to face and group with as you win to test your skills and limits and lose maybe because of harder opponents, they give you shitters to drag you down and make you lose because to them 50% win/loss rate is more important than actual ranking

ive noticed (and just check the stats of your players in promos) that a lot of guys on losing streaks get mixed into promos matches. I don't think its fair. Ive also noticed if its not someone with a losing streak, the enemy will sometimes have a higher team overall than you in ranking
