Why do I have to carry silvers in my G2 promo games? This is stupid as fuck, and I can't dodge this crap game because I autolose promo. These people are almost a division below where I'm promoting to

Edit: Enemy team got a level 30 ADC, we had a Plat 4 ADC, I won the coinflip this time

Looks like the Malphite was probably a smurf with high MMR and i think the panth was to balance the unranked Ezreal. Can't say much besides that.

because apparently you have to hard carry dead weight to somehow prove you belong in a higher division so good luck winning promos unless your actual skill level is quite a few several divisions above your current rank otherwise if your just a couple divisions above your rank than be prepared to plays hundreds of games and lose a bunch of promos to get to where u actually belong. This is coming from a high plat player who constantly smurfs in low gold with a 1v5 champ (irelia) and it takes me at least 90 games to get to low plat with only 60% winrate. Now imagine if i was low plat or mained a more team dependent champ... easily would take me 4x the amount of games to get from low gold to plat 4

I feel you.

Because maybe they have high mmr, because maybe you have low mmr despite being in promos, and i bet i don't have to look to know that you have 300+ games with 50% w/r

Malph is now g4, so he was in promos too, and g4 and g2 are rather damn close.

Panth just out-performed you lmao.

Idk. Why am I getting g4/g3 players in my bronze 1 games?
