The Real Problem with League

A lot of people lately have been complaining about many different things like the Sandbox mode, lack of replay system, etc. But what I think should be the top priority of things to fix is the ranking system. It's not based off of how well you alone perform, it's based on how well your team mates perform, which in thought is how it should work but the problem is there are more times than I can count where there is one or more of the following people:

1. "Mid or Feed/AFk" There are way too many people who play and will call this in champ select. It puts everyone in champ select in a bad mood instantly and in a difficult situation, either people think that they shouldn't get what they want by threatening to AFK and will take their role to try and show them, or people go in roles they don't want to go in and have the guy get what he wants. And let's be honest, when's the last time you had a guy like this on your team and he wasn't toxic?

2)AFK mid game: In far too many games there is at least one person who goes AFK. Some just have shiternet, and others rage quit. But regardless people lose LP becuase of one person. While it is possible to win a 4v5, it is very, VERY difficult and most of the time a waste of 20 minutes before you forfeit.

3)Toxic: Let's be honest this is just low hanging fruit but still sucks. Whether it's the guy who says "gg" guys who says it after any little thing doesn't go as he planned, or the "this team sucks" when the enemy gets a triple kill. I don't know exactly how the report system works and if it has something to do with the tribunal being down or what, but the consequences for being toxic are not high enough. If someone tells someone to go kill themselves or wishes cancer upon them, not being able to talk much during the game isn't harsh enough for them, and hurts the rest of the team due to the lack of communication.

4)"First time (insert champion here)" God these ones really rub me the wrong way. Why do we lose LP because they don't know how to play their champion and leading them to feed and make the game harder for everyone else. You shouldn't be able to play a champion for the first time in ranked. You just shouldn't. And even if you are able to do it, it doesn't mean you should.

5. The feeder: Oh boy. It was inevitably gonna lead to this one. Look, I understand everyone has a bad game every now and then, but why should I have to lose LP because they go on tilt and feed the enemy team 10 kills. Even if you try and gank them, there's only so much you can do before they die again. And when I say feeding I'm not talking about the 3/7 mid laner, I'm talking about the 0/13 mid laner who goes into lane gives them a kill and repeats. It's ridiculous the amount of times 2 lanes win and 1 loses and they snowball out of control and lose the game. Yes I know we should try and help them and buy wards for them and all that, but it sucks when they are so behind and refuse to play safely and feed them more no matter what you say.

Well, I'm sure there are more types of people that I missed that ruin ranked, but if I tried listing them all I'd be here for a while. But if, by some chance, you don't get one of these people on your team, then another thing that might get you is LP gain and loss. Sometimes it's ridiculous how a 40 minute close game that finally ended only results in +14 LP, but a loss is -20. It makes it so hard to climb the ladder and it just feels like a grind sometimes. And, with that my rant is over. I don't claim to have all the solutions, or really any at all. And I'm not trying to say riot isn't doing their job well, not in the slightest, I think they do an amazing job and get a lot of critique that they don't deserve. But the game is not without flaws. But it doesn't matter much cause at the end of the day, I'm still gonna come back to it because I've spent too much time and money to just give it up now. And besides, I gotta get that victorious skin. So what do you guys think?
