Some days ranked is fun and fair. Others ranked feels like the most annoying and frustrating thing.
So to put into perspective where im coming from, i was in my promos to Platinum and gaining 25-30LP a win, around 12-15 a loss. I was getting amazing team mates, everyone was working well together, friendly, kind, good at the game and it was a great time! I was hovering around a 53% win rate and it was lit.
Then promos came. Someone AFK'd at 8 mins cause i didn't give blue. Next game, someone DC'd and never came back til like 50 mins and we almost won, but we lost. Last game i played bad and we lost. So i thought "Eh shit happens its all good, we'll get back" And good granny was i wrong.
In a span of about a week and a half, i lost EVERY game i queued up for (i think the end score was something like 5 wins 17 losses) Going from Platinum promos to Gold 3 0LP. And i swear to god ive never had worse teams or people in my games since the Platinum promos.
Ive had so many trolls, people actually admitting to inting, people AFKing, people taking each others roles and just bad shit.
Now i hate the term hardstuck and i still really believe that if you are good enough to climb you will, but my account seriously got fucked. All of my games are so badly stacked against me. Solo lanes getting solo killed 2-3 times a lane, jungler not ganking, getting objectives or ever farming well, my supports have been all over the place, some insanely good some insanely bad. I literally haven't seen 1 person on the other team int, troll, afk, DC, take roles, nothing. Not saying i want that, but it's lame that it seems like its only my teams.
I actually was gaining some ground recently and won like 6 straight and got to g2 promos, but the same thing happened followed by a 6 game loss streak. I had 2 people AFK and 3 people admit to inting til the game was done in 2 games lol. that means 5 out of the 8 randoms i got intentionally didn't wanna win.
It sucks to feel like whatever i do in my games it doesn't matter. If my team does bad, the games over.
