on my recent games all i got was unlosable games followed by unwinnable games, i legit can predict im gonna win one and then lose the next now it feel so unfair tbh like on the unwinnable games someone just carry way too hard on the other side or allies suck way too much, its feeling so shitty rly...

Stomp or get stomped. It's been 2 years that way.

But "working as intended".

The only thing I'm trapped by is my own shitty playing.

from d2 promos to d4 0 lp hardstuck with practically no gains and perma demote shield icon. all in 2 days. Literally impossible to win any games because the opposite side of the map ints every game. Im at the point where im just gonna spam yuumi and unless my team will start playing like humans im fine with perma loss streak. literally 10 kill deficit by 15 minutes every single game lol.

yeah i only play norms now even and it's the same way.

9/10 games are massive stomps

only a few games feel competitive; i dont play enough any more to keep track, but it feels like 1/10 games feel like competitive and they could swing either way.

other wise its a massive blowout like 14-2 by 10 minutes and the shit is just done.

Games are extremely coinflip this season. Played this season like normal, took me much longer to get to Gold this season than 3, 4, or 8. Dodging could've shaved a couple weeks and dozens of games off the grind.

Knowing when to dodge can really expedite the process of getting you to the rank you deserve.

Oh definitely. I lose 1 win 1. Its the same bullshit every day. One game I get a team the other game I dont. Its whatever since im still climbing but what the fuck man why's it have to be like this.

I've been that guy preaching it's just the same as always, but have to admit I've reached a point where I see what everyone is talking about. I'm in silver so of course always the throw potential every game but regardless like almost every game is 10-0 one way or the other early on and it's been testing my patience big time.

You barely get to play a game where you buy a 4th item.

Yeah it's a real shit show

everyone can calculate odds of winning with a few variables it doesn't make you any special but the sooner you stop wasting your efforts on figuring out if the game is winnable during the lobby/loading screen the sooner you will start winning those unwinnable games

my usual scenario is me silver noob + 4 other unranked to silver ocasionaly low gold against 3 low elo + that wild diamond3 and plat. And they stomp hard, they win game just on micro difference they dont need do anything else just walk lane to nexus, then after few of this games we reach MM pitty counter and give us enemy team weaker than AFK bots, rinse and repeat. Only one person having fun is probably that diamond getting two digits in kills rest just pray for fast end.

Well i just got a lane 2-0 Draven vs my ezreal before the laning phase started with an horrid team comp with no tank (thats why i picked ezreal and i was in 1-0 before the lane started) and like 4-5 games in a row like that so.. idk, maybe its because im main adc and i can't do a shit until min 25. Im literally now convinced that the only way to climb is by duoing with comms lol or just have a ton of luck and try to not int in winning streaks.

BUUUT when you are on a winning streak literally everyone in your team knows how to do a perfect team comp like lcs style, this shit has no sense lol.

I think this type of post is relevant, but matchmaking in ranked is NOT a bad system, elsewise elo boosters wouldnt exist. I feel like i've discussed this before...

Maybe check out my post? https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/XiylXxvj-riot-ranked-discussion

I think there are some ideas that everyone can find relevant, ESPECIALLY about feeling stuck
