Fell from Gold, players are exponentially stupider

Darkinlegend·May 14, 2016·5 votes·539 views

Now its just a spiral downhill, every match there is a truly stupid player on the team....its noticeably different than in Gold...and losing begets losing because you start to feel like you are going to lose...and then you do....

This is why League is so disgusting. Well, that and Riot doesn't give a damn about the players.

Why not just reduce the champions down the the 20 that matter..all those stupid tanky, high CC moderate to high damage champions and OP ADCs who are better laners than fighters or mages....Riot, stop teasing us with the illusion of variety.

What a stupid response. You know very well that many of those champs are irrelevant and may of them are much stronger than others.

The fact that you thought this was clever response shows your lack of intelligence.

I don't know why people are downvoting you.

Silver is really difficult to consistently move up in. I'm a support main, and it's frustrating. Last year I only had to climb from Silver 2 to Gold, and even that took forever. This year I got placed in low Silver.

I've had people openly admit they're trying out new champions, nobody bats an eyelash. Someone picks Teemo top when we need a tank. People don't realize that if they die once or twice in lane, they aren't going to be winning the lane. The bot lane gets camped while an ally jungler camps top or mid, then they're super surprised when the enemy ADC does what they do best late game, melt everyone.

Silver is filled with avoidable situations, but maybe I just feel like it is worse because I play support. I feel like dynamic queue and the shift towards objectives has made this problem way bigger than it has to be.

The only variety I ever see in ranked games are from people who lose lane though. The meta matters more than any other time in recent memory, it is very strict. I used to have 1 or 2 champions that were must ban in my head, but this season there are at least 6 and I need to scan through them in my head. I don't think banning should be that complex.
