Please stop punishing people who use support role

First : I do not consider myself to be expert player, but I am however, support main.

All of you now know this game has two mechanics that are there to rate if person is fit for their rank

First is simple, if you lose more games than average player of your rank you get less lp

Second is bit trickier, it's when you win repeatedly many games ( like in placements), you get matched with people that are slightly better than you are to see if you can " carry" the game.

Both would be fine if this was pure skill shooter game or all roles were pure damage and carry roles.

In fact, these two spots force all but the top most support players to play ap and damage heavy supports to " carry" to maintain win percentages which quite honestly is cause of serious salt and flaming from people.

This has resulted now in a really weird situation, I have middle as second role and since the start of season 10 mid que time has been 11-15 minutes in placements and in gold tiere where I got placed, however support timer is literally instant.

This means almost no one is playing support role in this game.

Reason are the two earlier points :

If you have bad luck you get hard stuck and are at mercy of people to climb or if you do fine you get placed with lower skill allies vs higher skill enemies and again it gets almost impossible to carry since supports rely almost entirely on their team.

All ammount of warding, shield items placement, warning pings engages and peels do not help if team has to focus 100% just on their lane opponent since they can't yet watch the game like supports or higher level players that would benefit from that kind of play style do.

This results in EXTREMELY frusterating situation for support play, where climbing is even more tedious than it was before.

So I suggest we get some remedies for having to play the second most flamed role in game, with almost no gold income, get flamed killing single creep if laner is far away but apparently you can't deny gold from tower or if opponent has brains to sweep your wards and you lost that four dragon in row since jungler has to focus to farming as they got autofilled.

I suggest these things :

• Remove the mechanic that matches you vs high mr foes if you got good mr for support mains ( hard support mains not casuals), in lower elos ( silver, gold, plat, lower diamond).

• If support player would land 99 lp roll that to 100 lp ( seriously this is massive hinderance in long run).

• In future seasons, if support has record of playing over 50% games as support, during placements, always give them same tier or slightly higher team mates.

• and for love of god remove support minion rule from hard supports, you literally can't do anything in game if you can't farm even end game if shit hits the fan. ( example, you are 4 v 5 for some reason and still need the wards and game is winnable)

Do these three and you cut que times lot as people actually will play the role again.

Edit - extra : Also bot /adc players, please keep in mind that flaming the only person responsible of keeping you alive is not really smart.
