Why is Ranked like this?(rant)

It's been harder than ever to climb out of silver 3 than it was last season to climb to silver 1. I'm a much better player from last season yet im lower elo. I know riot doesnt really care but honestly this game is so team reliant its insane. I shouldn't have to play the roles for my team. I only climb if I carry and tanks don't work at all because whenever my teammates pick a "carry champion" they always feed. Why is like 30% of people gold and up? Does that not make Riot worried? So many people are low elo and they just watch as people never climb out and think their system is perfect when in reality it's not. This is why I think they don't publically show MMR, they probably know themselves it's stupid. Now don't get me wrong, you can climb in this game but only if you make a big enough impact on the other lanes. This isn't solo queue, it's who can win their lane every game and help everyone else win their lane for them. It's honestly stupid how whichever jungler ganks more ends up winning.

What makes you think your improvement has proceeded within an environmental vacuum? Other players are also striving to play better, and the environment (e.g. balance by Riot) has also dramatically shifted from last season as well (case in point: assassins and lethality).

Your ranked tier + division is a numerical representation of your aggregate performance comparative to everyone else's. If everyone else improves faster than you (or if the environmental variables/conditions favour them better... e.g. the champions/classes they play are stronger), then chances are you will fall :)
