Riots rigging the matchmaking again

Second series where I literally had each lane and the jungler rigged to lose. So much for balanced matchmaking and fair progression.

Define "rigged to lose".

When you win a game, was it rigged against the enemy team?

rigged to lose as in the members of each team are stacked in such a way that one team has an overbearing advantage in skill level. skill level in this case being competence of play.

If I had lost the match in an even fight I wouldn't be complaining, but losing BOTH series's with the enemy score approaching double the KDR that my team has is rigged matchmaking.

again, I wouldn't be complaining if even 1 series went 1/2 in any combination, or if the score indicated anything that wasnt a total stomp, but both ended 0/2 due to matches similar to my description of rigged above. This has happened so far in every change I get to move up.

Outside of duos, everyone's MMR is roughly the same. Matchmaking does not discriminate between series and regular games, nor does it take into account what champions people play.

It's completely possible (but unlikely) for a team to have five support mains against five people who main their positions. And from a pure matchmaking standpoint, everyone MMR was roughly the same, the match was fair.

clearly by how I get two stomps in a row every time I get a series but I get the normal matchmaking when I'm not in a series. ohwait....

OP - did the pharmacist short your meds? Or is there a hole in the tin foil hat you wear to keep the aliens out?

Rito has millions of players. If you think you're special enough for them to hand-pick your opponents, or even just program it so just you get a worse game, then you need to get that ego checked out.

or they could simply limit how fast a person can climb the ladder. oh but you didn't think of that cause that would mean I was actually a skilled player now wouldn't it? check your own ego before you tell others to check theirs.

Your arrogance is incredible. I'm actually impressed that you think riot doesn't want skilled people to make it to the top, where riot can make money off of them. It defies logic and all reasoning and the fact that this doesn't effect other skilled players who clearly do climb.

ofc they climb because they need no help but some do need help and therefore the system is flawed its made of punishing matchmaking and afk trolls .

There is an 11% greater chance for a troll or afker to be on the other team, assuming that you never troll or afk. The most consistent factor in every game in your match history is you, which is why MMR is a world recognized ranking system for solo people and groups.

implying that by not afk you have a 89% chance of getting a decent match where you can actually improve.
