Enough is Enough Riot

Alright Riot, here goes, giving no fucks about you because you give no fucks about players trying to do well, playing hard. You give no fucks about low ELO players...like me...I was determined to do better this season. To play hard in ranked, and have fun in norms. And you know what I found, the same ol shit. The same shitty matchmaking. The same shitty players. The same AFK's. You have done NOTHING to curb this problem. Who really gives a fuck about the summoners code when it means nothing as it isn't worth living up to. When you fix the problem of AFK players, and downright bad players, you will have far less players getting upset at other players. It is you Riot, who is causing the problems. It is you Riot causing players to rage at other players. Being outplayed is one thing. Allowing players to queue up in ranked and they don't have 5 wins in normals! But its ok, they bought 15 champs, play ranked! Fucking pathetic. "Leave no noob behind" WHAT A FUCKING JOKE. If they are a noob, they can only get better on their own! I can't play for them. Sure, tips and pointers. So what? All of a sudden, "I got a tip, I'm not a noob anymore, I'ma play ranked! YAH!" And then, because I wanted to climb out low ELO...I still get seeded with them. And because you thought it was a good idea to put even more emphasis on previous ranking, failing to understand how much better a player can get being stuck in low elo, that player can't get himself into a solid position for this season because of dead weight. The only reason that player couldn't get out may be because of terrible matchmaking! I see it all the time. One player, maybe 2 on my team or the other that do consistently well, strong CS, and cant carry a 3 man scrub squad. Especially not in ranked, when it seems that all 5 of the other players have it together. Hey Riot, ever think that maybe, just maybe, actually emphasizing INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE in NORMALS as well as RANKED can allow players to get better seeding. You call it a team game, and that it is. BUT INDIVIDUALS PLAY THE GAME AND INDIVIDUALS MAKE PLAYS IN THE GAME! DUH! So, a real example for you. Recently, I played a provisional game. The ADC failed to reach 100 CS in 28:49! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! In a ranked game, where some players are actually trying to get outa low elo for better competition, there are players that destroy their own team. This to me is unacceptable. And the AFK problem. Sure the game could be lost or won for that matter. And people would abuse the lost prevented and go AFK even though they were already losing. PLAYERS WHO AFK, NEED STRICT HARSH PUNISHMENT in ranked. See this is where I laugh at the hypocritical Riot. "Oh team game, team game"...ok Riot, you say so. Yet, it is an individual leaving, destroying the team. The team more than likely loses a 4v5 ranked game, from which ELO is destroyed. All because of one person. Yet Riot won't put that much weight (the outcome of a game) on one person in game playing very well. So, if one person leaving can decide the outcome of a game, why can't one players performance in a game be weighted more heavily. Why does Riot just say, well you went 5-5 in your provisionals. Doesn't matter that 3 of the 5 losses were due to people leaving. You are still Silver 5. Why would I spend any money on your product, when your product produces shit. The fact is, performance in normals should have a heavier effect on ranking matchmaking. Also, this could eliminate the "try hard" attack as it would be expected to be trying hard in both normals and ranked. And players who play normals who can't achieve, simply can't queue into ranked. Too bad so sad. When they can distinguish themselves in normals, ranked play follows. Then its truly no noob left behind. Because they will no longer be a noob, they will have reached their own goals and joined the pack. By grooming them, you are automatically helping them help themselves without hurting ranked positioning. And more would be expected of them, and everything that "noob" had to go through to get to play ranked would be known. And it would be the same. And people couldn't just say "o u suck" because they had to have a certain skill level just to be there. But you know what? I know this falls on deaf ears. Because Riot, all you really give a fuck about are dollar signs, and image. Not happy players. The game is fun. There is no denying that. But you make it soooooooooo unenjoyable. Riot fail.

2 things.

  1. Afks and baddies are impossible to fix, show me one game that solved people going afk.
  2. Looking at your recent match history, you need to improve. 30+min games and your 140 CS? Stop flaming others when you yourself have much improving to do.

Everyone dislikes this moba. Your point is irrelevant.

Too many cringing in this thread.

That wall of rant.

Is you bothered to space it out a little i would have read more of it.

How exactly will Riot utterly stop AFKs and players who don't do well? How does any game for that matter? Like you are asking for the impossible.

Edit: Also, did you just say Riot pisses on the lower elo people but should piss off the normal casual players instead?

You're making little sense on a lot of your arguments. For one normals DO impact your ranking leading into ranked for the first time. It's why one person with 50 normals wins under their belt get placed in Silver 2 and another person with 50 wins under their belt get placed in Bonze 5 even though they both went 3-7 in their placements. You can't have normals effect your ranking AFTER you dive in...because then there's no real territory to try out brand new champs outside of a bot game.

Two...STOP BLAMING OTHER PEOPLE...come on man. Nightblue3 was in his Challenger promos the other day...know what happened...he had 3 AFKers in two games. Crap happens to everyone at every ELO.

You want to get better...stop blaming people. Record your games and post them on here for people to watch. Have us, the community side of this game that aren't just raging teenagers and trolls see how you play the game and point out the areas that you need to SERIOUSLY work on and improve. It's through that that you'll get better. You'll carry those 4v5 AFK games and Feeder games to the point you'll slowly work up.

This stuff ain't instant man...hell you've played TWELVE GAMES! Unless you're two full tiers below where you're supposed to be...and I'm talking Bronze to Gold...not Bronze 5 to Bronze 3...you're not going to just jump up in ranking in a matter of a few games. Get LOLreplays...record your games...post it on the forums in the tips and tricks section or help section...let those on here willing to help actually help. Bitching isn't going to do crap...don't be that guy. The only thing you can do is be the best player you can be. When you accomplish that...the rest won't frickin matter.

You get an AFKer in your game...make a goal. You're playing top lane and your ADC afk...make a goal. "I'm going to ward the crap out of my jungle and turtle under my turret and get 60 CS at 10 mins despite the disadvantage." "I'm going to play safe and work on positioning and escape the game with less than 3 non-gank related deaths" etc. Take some positive out of a crap ass situation. But seriously, SERIOUSLY, just record a game whether you did well or not and post it. You're calling out people as being noobs...but I'm willing to bet if you dissected your game...the areas you need to improve on are more numerous than you can count. And that's not putting you down....everyone is tunnel visioned when it comes to themselves and how they feel they play. Let us help you improve and get rid of the rage.

It's not riot's fault people are dicks...don't be one too and learn how to get past it by relying on others to help you learn.

If you are unsatisfied go try another MOBA, clearly you dislike this one.
