Match Making.... PLEASE.

So. I'm a silver 1 player, trying to climb into gold. I play some normal games to warm up before diving into ranked, and don't get me wrong I like to have a challenge from people at my skill level or even a little bit higher. BUT WHEN I'M SILVER 1 and I'm getting paired against an enemy team that is two mid plat players and TWO DIAMOND PLAYERS. I get a little frustrated. I understand that maybe there isn't a whole lot of people on at the time and other things affect this, but I consistently get players that are ranked significantly higher than me in my games and when I'm trying to climb it just starts to feel unfair. I can take a learning experience here and there and I do try to take something from each game and improve on it, like I said, I don't mind playing against SLIGHTLY higher elo players, but the skill gap that I am experiencing lately is just outright frustrating. I don't expect to do much other than get stomped playing against a diamond player. PLEASE HELP THIS STOP.

I don't know if it's true or not in your case. But giving you the benefit of the doubt, it's because the rank you are at is absolutely meaningless... for some reason. Riot doesn't pair S1 players against S1 players. They pair them against an MMR combo matching their team's MMR combo.
