Are you (Riot engineers) going to do something about your very bad and unbalanced matchmaking algorithm or you are going to continue your useless stories about the champions? renekton is nasus brother and shurima city and other useless tips? iron 1 vs silver 3?

They wont. Welcome to no more B5.. and welcome to the plauge oif iron 4 players. I got demoted for being rusty and losing to a team of silver 2 players and me a team of iron 4.
HECK in one game I had 60cs at 10 mins.. THEY HAD 12.
Kanyoupipu4 votes100% agree... the games are now determined by which lane has the greater skill disparity. Riot can't seem to balance it normally and now they are talking about positional rankings?

12/1/5 Malzahar top, stomped Urgot in lane. Bot lane won their lane as well. Didn't stomp, but won lane. Our JG was even with theirs.
Didn't matter, the Diana mid not only fed the Lux but then went to feed bot and feed some more throughout the game trying to split push without vision and we lost anyways.
Problem is this game gives immense power disparities among some champs. I killed the Urgot over 10 times solo and he still managed to be a threat throughout the game whereas the Diana was completely worthless and could do virtually nothing.
Tristana won lane alongside Swain but it didn't matter since the Swain did no damage whatsoever and their bot lane with MF just farmed up and in the end their Soraka was way more useful despite losing lane.
It's honestly why I like Heroes of the Storm more. The power gaps are nowhere near as huge.
Heos001 votesWell yeah, i just had a game where my jungler was gold 1 and filled and theirs were plat 3 lmao. Obviously he got roflstomped and we lost the game, i have been noticing a trend with, memes aside, the better jungler wins because the jungle matchup has too much influence in the game, like no matter what i do if i don't die vs hard matchup as botlane or how i control the wave, the other jungler just spam gank my teammates and they just lose their lane... like wtf, even when i win it's like my jungler spam ganked someone, it has no sense at all... I guess the problem is the power gap between roles like jungler and overall low impact roles and the filled system tbh and if you mix them like that game, the most important role jg + someone filled in it, its obvious something wrong its going to happen :/
FCJAAAAGOOOO3 votesIf Riot's going to matchmake based on WR, they should also track the last time you played a game and not put you at a severe disadvantage or in an unwinnable situation during your first games back.
Kaisha3 votesThe point of LOL is to lose. Why don't people understand that? If they wanted the game to be balanced or 'skill based' it wouldn't be this snowball-y insta-delete fck-fest.
hazerddex1 votesthe new season hasn't started why is everyone still talking about placements?
Frog goes moo1 votesThat's because that person's probably a smurf with silver MMR. You haven't been keeping up with the new rank system. There are master tier and lcs tier streamers that smurf and are starting at iron regardless of how good they do in their first placements with an account, but the strange thing is, the account will have high diamond mmr and they'll still be matchmade with the people that are around their skill rank. This has been a thing for a while. Feel free to ask me any questions about it if you want.
Night x Blue1 votesHe was not smurf and had 5 looses in a raw by bad score and fed enemy in top like hell. iron vs silver3 top lane. what could the team do? its bad matchmaking.

If that's the case, then he's probably just a new player with silver mmr. New players start at s5 mmr. That's why fresh new unranked players can do their placements with gold players. That could be a possibility. Also someone losing 5 times in a row, especially if they're a silver player trying to climb on a new account, isn't that un-ordinary. Silver and silver mmr is where the majority of the league community resides.

Night x Blue1 votesNo he was not smurf and had about 5 looses in a raw with bad score. we were one iron and two silver 4 and two bronze 1 and enemy were three silver 3!!!!! and 2 silver 4 (no Smurf) and iron was top lane and fed enemy like hell.
Tarquin961 votesDidnt know lore team balances matchmaking , you learn every day
MightyMiddle1 votesIt's a broken system. It was bad before they added iron and master, but something just broke after that lol. Granted I play primarily three's, but literally every single game as a Plat/Diamond I get Silvers and Bronze on my team. the other team I played a game the other day with a mix of Plat, Bronze, Challenger, and Me lol. I'm sure there was a silver thrown in there too for fairness, but I can't remember :P. The last game i played was me (plat) with a bronze (unranked in everything else) two silvers, a gold and another Plat I think. Just ridiculous how little effort riot seems willing to put in to balancing it.
