Ranked is so stupid

So I get in my series, I was third pick and called mid. I picked lux and there was no problem. Fourth pick calls adc, picks Ez, all good still. Last pick: with one second left instalocks draven calls adc. Typical ranked right just a normal day whatever who cares. I say ill support him, and tell ez to go mid. We get in game. I go bot with draven. He says "no either ez supports me or i feed." Proceeded to feed, while flaming the rest of us for every little mistake. Guess who won?

It's bullshit like this that makes me absolutely hate Riot for the way Ranked is set up. And every response to something like this is "oh it happens to everyone." SO WHAT? That doesn't excuse it. Wake up! Wins and losses is a horrible representation of PERSONAL skill. One player just singlehandedly lost me 20 LP. And there wasn't a single thing I could do about it.

Really? I've carried games like that before. Why couldn't you? Was it because you made mistakes?

Please explain how people being jerks on the internet is Riot's fault?

I once had a Mundo troll my team by going into everylane and feeding kills over and over and over. You know what, the other team go so distracted chasing and killing the Mundo that everyone else on my team was able to rotate and take map objectives, ultimatly leading us to win the game.

Just because you are delt a bad hand, doesn't mean you will lose the pot. It is times like these that test how strong your leadership skills are.

Update: Second game of the same series, our Jinx was AFK the whole game. Get dropped to 68 LP. Seems reasonable.

Update: Next game we're up 15 kills, winning easily. Our Lucian makes the comment that he's carrying (completely true) so Renekton decides that he has to sit in base for the rest of the game flaming Lucian for everything. "If you're carrying why aren't u winning the game? You don't need me."
