Riot stop with the jokes

Why is a silver in my team? is the question of today

As after being promoted to platinum for the second season I find myself in matchmaking with 1 platinum, 2 gold and 1 silver on my team(which seems like main EVERYTHING as he is also playing new champs every single game).

Now, is this a joke? Seriously. Is this a joke?

So if I am willing to play premade duo with a friend which is in silver 1 I am not even allowed to search for the game as ''The rank difference is too high'', so knowing this sacred role of yours... why the hell is there a silver player on my team?

Avoiding the fact he started writing 'this game is loss already' in the pregame chat, for then throwing a massive victory where i fed my adc by destroying the enemy botlane, then this guy fed 0\7 and made them recover the whole game.

This is completely against the same logic of the game, as I find myself in a lane where we are vayne and thresh and enemies are brand and lucian, do you riot understand how much i have to fight and how much i have to give to be able to win in such a disadvantage? Normally, you do something hard, you put your soul in it, you achieve your goal, I should be compensated right? NO your team suck and you will still lose the game, you will lose LP's and you will be stuck here forever instead of playing with players at your level, and it doesn't feel good when EVERY SINGLE GAME after tryharding to win your lane and doing everything perfect I have to have my game completely ruined by your matchmaking system.

How can I call this a game if I cant even play it or have any damn influence over it!! From now on League of legends is a JOKE to me, not a GAME.

You want to tell me it is because there is not enough platinum players connected searching for a game right now? No way, there is thousands of thousands. So why does it always have to happen that I am forced to a 50% win rate and you expect me to carry a game after putting people 2 ranks lower than me, or with 40% win rate on their main champion or just very bad statistical players?

The game has to be fair, and is not. Your matchmaking is broken and you should look to fix it as soon as possible

because the system wants you to try carry.

That is obvious, but as a single player out of 10 i have 10% influence over the course of the game. Starting with a disadvantage makes it almost impossible for you to win a game.

Let me explain with math. Lets say you try invest your money on some asset, right? When I first invest, I lose 20% of my capital ( representing the 10% which is the very bad player on my team and another 10% for the player on opponent team which will eventually get an advantage out of him ).

1000 INITIAL CAPITAL, LESS 20% EQUALS 8000

Now you will say, you just have to carry the game.

Well, statistically speaking, I also am 10% (1 player out of 10). Lets suppose now I win (my lane) 20% of my money.

8000 INITIAL CAPITAL, EARN 20%, EQUALS 9600

What do I mean by this? That means that even if I carry my lane and put the enemy in disadvantage we are still losing the game, the game IS NOT EVEN ON A FAIR 50-50 POSITION YET.

You still lost money.

Riot doesnt understand the math behind it, so they try to force you to carry a game by giving you a disadvantage and asking you to carry.

The problem is, unless i have 40% influence over the course of the game JUST BY MYSELF the game is automatically lost.

Even by carrying one lane which is 20% influence (me and the opponent) i still would have to be playing at the same time in another lane to take further advantage, but since there cannot be 2 of me in the same game (sadly) i would have to also carry someone else, therefore pushing an opponent behind, resulting in an additional 20% influence, resulting in a total of 40%.

So, mathematically speaking, either I do 40% of the work or I lose the game. This is not an opinion but math.

And this can only happen in case the other 3 players of your team and 4 players of opponent team play a neutral game and also if the fed enemy player does not affect any other lane, which is also a very difficult situation given the fact weaknesses in this game are exploited, so once you die in early the enemy tends to snowball the advantage throughout the map.

So once again, mathematically speaking, most of my games are impossible to carry unless you are 40% better than all these players, i.e. diamond or plus. ( ive lost games where it seemed impossible to lose for how hard i carried, but the system itself and its math makes you lose the game even before you start it)
