After years of normals, I finally tried ranked

Ok sure but why··2 votes·607 views

Some guy told me, "Hey, you should try Ranked. There aren't nearly as many idiot feeders in Ranked." "No idiot feeders, you say?" "No idiot feeders."

So I tried my provisionals, and-

#He was wrong

BUT at least it was balanced, unlike in normals, and half the time the feeder was on their team!

So boom, bam, 5/5, Silver V on my first try. Now, time to climb.

I wish you luck. I got as high as Silver II, and the experience went downhill from there. So I stick to norms, despite the many problems it often suffers.

People take ranked more seriously, and that's about the only difference between normals and ranked. That's not a small difference, though.

i find in normals its just 1 or 2 players end up carrying getting big with advantageous try hards vs people not try harding or blatant miss matchups, but no1 cares because its normals.

and in ranked its always ruined because theres 1 ringer or 1 feeder/afk usually. and that accounts for over 60+% of the games that occur in ranked, making ranked flawed at the get go as none should be influenced by factors other than 9 even players against your skill.

People play shit they know how to play in ranked. People experiment in norms.

The feed is real because people dont know how to 1) manage their minion waves 2) not over extend 3) farm well at turret 4) farm like shit at due to poke knowing that not feeding their laner and avoiding missing xp is more important than trying to grab an extra 19 gold caster minion 5)chase people into unwarded bushes 6)not overstay 7)correctly choose when to drag/rift/baron 8)avoid running it down mid when the mid inhib is already gone and their whole team is up instead of rotating to another lane and getting a 2nd inhib for more map pressure 9) draft a team with appropriate counters to certain enemy champions (knock ups/stuns for kat ult for example 10) draft teams with a well rounded damage comp 11) play a tank.....

I seriously could go on but I was in a good mood until i started writing this post and now I'm tilted. lol

Naw, i've played ranked. The only reason it's even somewhat balanced, is because draft pick, where some champions are designed to nearly impossible to beat without targeted counter picking.

It's a stupid game design tbh.
