We need a system to ensure Bronze players do not end up in Diamond ranked games.

Easy to follow suggestion. Simply make it so that in ranked you don't ever get a Bronze player on your team. Just had an uncarriable game where I had 17 kills because we had a BRONZE ADC that literally did not know why he was matched with us. 40 minute game and he did 15.6k damage to my 40.6k damage. Game was literally uncarriable because it was a 4v5 with a handicap/liability.

Not even the bronze players fault for performing like shit, he just performed AT HIS SKILL LEVEL. So why did Riot think this was ok? I'm Diamond 4 in Flex, I should NOT be matched with a player that was Bronze solo Q last season and Silver in flex this season. Absolutely stupid waste of 40 minutes where I out performed evveryone on the enemy team but couldn't do shit because our ADC didn't know how to attack towers, or champions in fights, or farm, or do anything at a level that is even on par with AVERAGE.

Easy fix: Longer queue times to ensure teams are fair.

That person is Silver 1. Flex que always had a skew match making since they use their own mmr. While a silver 1 still shouldn't be playing with diamonds, there probably wasn't many options at this time of night in flex que

Please fix this, another game ruined because I had 2 silver players in a promotion to Diamond 4 series game. Why do I have to carry people that are way outside of their skill level to get to the next division? It seems like my only losses the last few days are from having silver and bronze players on my team vs High plat - diamond. I put this in "Report a bug" because obviously this has to be a bug,, but it was deleted and I was told to make the post on here.

Fix match making, getting matched with silvers as a Diamond player trying to do promos is tilting.
