Welcome to Riot's season 6.

Their programmers don't play the game.

In their mind 5s premade is same as 5s solo.

The silver player has like a 70% win rate so their MMR is probably way higher than their rank. Everyone has bad games

The longer your queue goes, the more liberties the game takes in order to get you into a match faster. Wait long enough and you get imbalanced match ups like this.

I found out as a support main that you can avoid this by cancelling your queue if it goes over 3 minutes. Just press the not ready picture and enter the queue again.

I don't think it was even 3 minutes, I just don't get how a silver player was in a game with plats when it's ranked.. I thought riot specifically didn't do this.. it's like a gold player being in a diamond ranked game, it shouldn't happen period..

Chances are they're either starting to rank up after placements or they have an insanely high winrate.

That moment when your elo is total trash

The Rinky Dinky guy you keep playing with has pretty low MMR for his rank according to na.op.gg maybe he is reeling in the baddies?

He has a 62% win rate. Looks like a smurf to me.

Yeah but if i can't queue with my silver friends, why can I be matched with them. I thought it wasn't suppose to match plats with silvers or golds with bronze etc

BluePolarizer2 votes

It shouldn't but it has happened. I've had an unranked in one of my games this season, and I've been plat since the first week.

It matchs by MMR, not by rank.

Not a smurf, look his stats. He got good placements and his MMR inflated. Seems to have been demoted aswell. Looks like a wildcard to me.

Bad matchmaking and a consistent refusal to prioritize it.

I got matched with a Gold 4 a little while ago. I'm Diamond 4.

Madness.

Dreadlocks1 votes

That's rediculous.. I don't understand why they're allowing this.. our lb was literally down over 100 cs by the time she completed her first item he had almost 3

Baunjo1 votes

Yep, that's how great our matchmaking is these days. Good job riot.

Dynamic Queue... Tbh if someone is playng with 1 or 2 elos higher, they should get little LP for winning and alot of LP lost for losing.

Naag One1 votes

as per op.gg his MMR is 1709. yours is 1792.

Dreadlocks1 votes

Ur missing the point lol.

SlashStriker1 votes

it is possible he is smurf. He played only in season 6 only this month. Check Tier Graph

However usually diamond smurfs start somewhere from gold and plat and climb up to diamond again. It happens they also have bad games sometimes

Possibly he is good player too if not smurf

DaFunnKYz Your MMR is quite a bit higher than average.

Dreadlocks1 votes

Doesnt matter, he shouldn't be matched with anyone above gold 1 in ranked period

Doesnt matter, he shouldn't be matched with anyone above gold 1 in ranked period

there is possibility that its based on MMR In other words he might be gold Based on MMR since his MMR was higher than avarage
