I was a plat 5 player in s6 and now I'm stuck in silver 1 in flex rank, almost every game 1 of 2 situations will happen.1.our/enemy team get really skill less and lower rank player(mostly in my team) or 2.One of my lane will get trash/troll(toxic chat) player that keep feeding kills every miniute and then I will either do really bad as well because enemy get fed and group really fast, or when I try to snowball my lane but enemy snowball faster since one or more of my teammates is feeding really badly. After 2 unsuccessful promos( i went 2/3 both times) I can't even get back to promo because the above situations will happen. IGN:InfernaI Diana , feel free to check my match history. Not gonna ever play flex again,I was planning to get out of silver than switch back to solo/duo but after today I would rather quit for a bit.REAL DEPRESSING.As a player that never flame and always try my best in rank, am I deserve this? item 3070

It's not a secret that Riot has started the ranked season so that people are being placed lower than their previous tier. If you choose to play now, then you have to realize that it will happen. Heck the highest a person can be placed right now is Platinum 1 (if Redmercy's current Youtube video series is anything to go by). Everyone seems to be roughly 1.2 tiers below where they were before.

As a positive, it means that those players who were trapped at lower tiers should in theory have a chance to move up. And I guess you are now familiar with the negative side of it - especially all the people who were either previously or have currently been placed at that tier (who all think, regardless of whether it is true or not, they should be higher).

In the meantime, welcome to Silver and all the joys that it offers. :)
