I am done
I can't do this anymore, I have had enough. I am done being stuck in Bronze and never moving up. I know you hear this all the time but this isn't going to be your normal "I'm stuck in Bronze because my team feeds argument". I want to climb more than anyone else I know, not because I want to prove myself, but because I want to get better. Don't get me wrong there is always something new to learn in every game, but when someone feeds in a game and we lose because of it, no one is getting better. This is because we are all human and we want to correct other's and not ourselves. Bronze is the hardest elo to get out of, anybody to disagree is probably a player who is in high elo and has forgotten, or just lucky. This is not to all you bronze players who think they are perfect and DESERVE to be in higher elo. You don't deserve anything, you EARN it by working for it. I screw up all the time, and what I try to do is fix my mistake and move on. Bronze goes completely against this. I am not going to stop climbing, I am going to keep trying. But when people start flaming and giving up, no one wins. This is why Bronze is so awful. I love a good game win or lose, when people compete, WORK TOGETHER and help. In bronze all people do is give up, and when you give up you stop trying, and when you stop trying, other people get mad, and when people get mad they either insult or they help each other and give them advice. This is what I love. This is what helps people get better. Simply doing this can break the "curse" of Bronze and people can start getting better, learning and improving. At least that is why I play. I play to get better, and to learn, I love league of legends, but not in the state it is in. You need to do something to encourage this. Riot you HAVE to focus on pro play, there is nothing wrong with that. But now us low elo players ask you to help fix bronze. I work night and day to get out of bronze, believe me. I don't get better at the game like this, no one does.
My second argument is this, there are people who just are not good enough at the game to be playing competitively, yet. I did no say they couldn't get good. I am saying not yet. THIS GOES TO YOU PLAYER'S WHO FLAME. You can not get better looking at people's mistakes. You can not. No one cares if you are playing at a "diamond" level, there is still a reason you are not playing at a "Challenger" level. I hate feeding teammates. This doesn't mean I flame them. I help them get better. But another reason people hate bronze is because there is always someone on your team that feeds. I don't care if they are trying to fix their mistakes, they do not deserve to be in bronze V. Fixing mistakes will get them there eventually, but they are not there yet. The people who don't fix their mistakes and blame others will never get there, and I could not care less. You are not going to get anywhere in life if you can't fix yourself. I have my bad games. I might go 0/9 and hate myself for it. I WOULD MUCH RATHER LOSE THE GAME BECAUSE OF MYSELF, THEN MY TEAM MATES. No matchup is going to be perfect but it needs to be fixed. Fit "skilled" players with skilled players and not as skilled players. We all have bad games including me, we all make mistakes, including me. I have a draft for a new structure for a system. I want your opinions on this. Any questions will be awnsered. I will most likely be on twice a day after spring break. I don't know ho often I will be on during spring break (a lot). Below is my new system.
We have placements like normal.
We will then go through a series of crazy games like the way bronze is now.
League of Legends is a team game don't get me wrong, but it is based on our own skill too. The game will see how you did as a whole that game
It will then compare it to the other games you played, getting an average. One game means nothing, all your games show something about you as a player
It puts you with players with a similar average.
Of course, you can not get to challenger being an average player, so at every tier (V, IV,III,II,I) it would... ( I need your help here. It would HAVE to be something that would keep the good, and hold the not as good.)
(Would go all they way until Diamond 1)
This, of course, is a rough draft, not even almost finished. I need your help. I do not know what you guys want, I only know what I want. Which means nothing. I will be adding comments to this thread and see if they get up voted or down voted. They will be at the top of the thread and will have a vote button thingy. I don't want you getting mad at me because you don't agree, again who does that help? Help me improve it, I am not perfect. Nor are you
The goal is for riot to see this, and make a change.
Best regards, Matthew
