Hi this is my first post am really confused about this game.

I win about 1 in 5 games am in silver 5 was silver 1 think I went on a 17 game lose streak.

Now I thought that was just a thing that you lose a lot but then I guy I told about how much I lose he said that riot don't like or your account might be broken?? every game I get matched with better players and my team have no idea what there doing.

Is this true can your account be broken? just played 15 games today and won 2. I thought this was normal because i got use to it. I played with a guy today who was mid he has 45 cs at 26 mins I checked his account and he is on a 3 game win streak! haha

If someone could help me thanks and tell me is this true can yor account be broken??

It is extremely unlikely that your account is 'broken', it's just it probably has a rather unfortunate mmr due to all the losses, which means you get matched with worse players, and it can feel snowbally until you are able to step up and make the difference to cause your team to win despite whatever questionable decisions your teammates may or may not have made.

Both teams with typically have approximately the same average mmr (purple side has very slightly higher mmr), so as your mmr goes down, you'll get matched both with and against relatively worse players.

I see so this broken account thing is a myth?

Yes. A somewhat popular one, as it's easier to blame your account being 'broken' then it is to accept that you might not be as good as you think and it's related to you not carrying hard enough, but a myth nonetheless.

It is completely normal for people to start ranked, and get repeatedly destroyed over the first couple dozen games, end up tilted, and get destroyed even more. The trick is to just accept that lost cause games are a thing, but you can't help what other players do, and just focus on the mistakes you made yourself and try to fix those. Eventually you'll improve yourself to the point where you really can carry some rather 'rough' teams relatively speaking, and then you'll trend upwards. Repeat until challenger.

Your match history looks normal enough for a low-elo solo support, that is, painful. Most of it is really just random luck. anything under gold V has tons of unranked or barely lv30 players this season, which adds a lot of unpredictability to matchmaking.

Yes your account is broken. I suggest calling an engineer and asking for them to run a diagnostic on all vital systems, including the engine, hydraulics, and optics.

No need for your sarcasm and jokes... The person is confused and just wants clarification, don't be a dick.

I don't understand what you mean by a broken account. Matchmaking only uses your MMR, not your username or anything.
