It's not worth it.

The negative affects on my mind, body, and soul from losing a game due to a misplay of mine or because I get Garen mids, trolls who play ranked and do not take the game seriously, people who tilt and quit, people not trying or putting forth the effort to win because it means less to them than me or other players on my team... Those negative affects greatly, greatly outweigh the positive ones that you get from a win. It's just brutal. And being a support main trying to climb out of silver is, I think, actually hurting me physically, mentally, and emotionally.

It's just not worth it. Riot really, truly needs to implement a new ranked system. Where the people you are matched with are much, much closer to your MMR your Honor level, your gpm, your apm... they really need to take apart their system and build a new one or they're gonna watch their game die of "old age" as the new games --continue-- to siphon their player base.
