the queue has issues when dealing with support players

just played a game where my mmr was the highest in the game by a large margin, leading to a team with wildly ranging mmr, while the enemy team had a more consistent skill margin. this led to most of our lanes losing harshly and our jungler feeding

it was almost as if i was set up to lose just from the matchmaking system alone, all because the system decided to use a support main as the balancing factor in determining how skilled each team is.

im not saying that support mmr shouldnt be taken into consideration for matchmaking or anything, but if the people with the highest mmr on the teams are playing riven and soraka, it's going to be way easier for the riven player to just dominate the game, while the soraka player can't do much of anything because the riven player is just too good at capitalizing on the mistakes of the other team, while the soraka can not only not capitalize on mistakes made by the enemy team, but can only try to put a bandaid on her own teams. so while technically they are evenly skilled, the game is vastly in the riven player's favour simply because she was matched with the soraka.

this isn't just a "booh hoo i didnt get carried" thread either because the other players on my team got completely fucked by the system as well by being matched with opponents that clearly outskilled them.

i'm not sure how to fix it with the 5 mins of me making this thread, without making the queue times super high because nobody wants to play support (even though we could make it more appealing with bonuses like in other games). but you know im just salty that it was gg just because of matchmaking
