Why did I just lose 23 LP because someone wanted to try a new champion in ranked?

There's no reason for punishing the player's team, because they wanted to try a new champion and went 1-11.

This shit isn't acceptable in solo queue. It's intended to be a game mode for those of us who want to try hard, not a mode where people can fuck over their teams by trying out new things.

You lost 23 LP at the fault of a random player because you are playing solo queue.

If you don't want to rely on random strangers, captain a 5v5 team so you can choose who you play with. There is absolutely nothing you can do to avoid those kinds of problems in solo.

Decrying a team mate that went 1-11 when you've had equally bad games?

Or, 5/9ths of the time, take your free win from an opponent doing the same thing?

If it bugs you that much dodge and take the 5 minute wait time and 3 LP loss.

If you feel the loss of only 23 LP from a single game is a punishment given to you by Riot I truly feel sorry for you.

What? I lose 23LP on loss and gain 11LP on wins.

What are you trying to say?

Ranked is a game of averages. One game doesn't matter in the slightest. Even ten games doesn't really matter by the end of the season. This is simply how the system was designed, there is no "punishment" involved when you lose a match, which is contrary to what the OP is saying.

i remember a few days ago when i went adc in ranked and this guy wanted to be supp. went in a thresh and....

missed all his hooks (even at point black range) have a relic shield but didn't AA at minons til all our inhib turrets were gone

all because that person wanted to try a new champ or problably a first at being a supp

thx to him we lost the game since he was also feeding the enemy...

Why did you gain 23 LP because someone wanted to try a new champ? Everyone looks at it when it hurts them, but not when its the reason they got the W as well.

Riot says you should have carried harder. About to switch to.. whatever those starcraft / AoE games are called. RTS? Hate fuckwit-mates.

Why did I have to get raged at, when on my 10th game of the day I decided to try something New?

its itsnt as punishing as you think because all you need to do is to play over and over again for this one loss to not matter
