Again, it's been a while since I've made one of these posts, but this is mind blowing. I was 1 game from promos and this is the matchmade game I get:

The highest rank on our team is lower than the lowest rank on their team. As well, we have two unrankeds, and they have none. The enemy team has ranked experience on 4 of their champs, while only I have experience on my team.

To boot, our Wukon top has 400 ping all game and feeds Teemo. I almost did more dmg than wukong did as Leona.... https://i.gyazo.com/39954b0e26f3ea229b4cd59fdab2d7bf.png

Like normal my teams bot lane doesnt lose: https://i.gyazo.com/f94928b239535683abe42fba2a913656.png

And, there wasn't a single toxic player on my team this game which is good. It's just horrid matchmaking where one team was clearly given far less skill than the other one was. I can't blame that on my team mates, just that I was given these team mates. It's not fair to them or me.

I know you guys like to use the, "But you're the only thing in common with these losses", but I just don't think thats an effective argument in this case. I had the highest vision score in the game. https://i.gyazo.com/2c065c6d9c37ab9b64d078452f5fa22d.png

I had the most assists in the game, and I had every support item I could get and utilized the actives effectively. I had 75% kill participation, and in most of these terribad matchmade games this continues to be the case. I'm a good support, but it just seems like I'm going to have to switch to mid or top to have a strong enough effect on the outcome of the game. And that's just stupid because that leads to longer matchmaking times.

It really feels like League is no longer about skill or team comp. Simply the better matchmade team or the less toxic team always wins. Or at least that's the case at this elo.

Sigh..

Red side tends to have slightly higher MMR, however for all we know the 2 unranked players could have high silver/low gold MMR. You said you built every 'support' item but you're versing Lux, Sona, and Sejuani but no Mikael's Crucible?

If your dog can do that does that make your dog a better player than you?
