Ranked Solo Queue is absolute hell

Normally, I don't like complaining on the board, but this is getting ridiculous.

I can understand being at fault for my team losing. That's perfectly reasonable, and several of my matches were lost due to my own inability to win lane. However, losing thirteen matches and only winning three is absolutely insane. The matchmaking in ranked is downright horrendous- just yesterday, I was playing ranked with someone else, and we managed to lose four games in a row before we finally got a win. Four games. Even with the two of us trying our hardest to carry.

I don't mind losing, but when I'm losing 90% of the time, it gets beyond frustrating. What do I have to do, only play ranked in a five-man premade? This game is obviously heavily in favor of premades, while simultaneously screwing over solo queue players. When I'm not doing poorly in a match, someone else on my team is bound to be.

I feel you man. Demoted twice 2 weekends ago. Biggest loss streak I’ve ever had in league. Did I do poorly in some? Sure. But a majority of them I did extremely well. Matchmaking is broken.

The other day, I went from climbing and being in my Silver 3 promos, to losing them, to then losing every single match after that until I was back down to 0 lp.

I wasn't playing bad, in fact, I won my lane most of the time.

I generally do well, but it feels like nowadays when I play that doesn't matter. I have to 'have faith' that the rest of my team doesn't feed, because solo carrying doesn't exist anymore unless you're playing Katarina Yasuo MasterYi Talon or Vayne. I am not exaggerating when I say this, those are the only champions that I have seen fully solo carry games since this season started. I have not seen a single other adc, midlaner, or jungle do it.
