No one cares. Tons of trolls. Terrible match making, just had a game where my mid lane was randomly Silver 1 in my plat game and got shit on, as expected.... Like, why? Why on earth would you put this poor guy in my plat game when he's in promos for Gold? It's not fair for us and it's not fair for him.

Like Jesus, I've never lost so many games in my life. This season just feels miserable.

You're not spending enough money on skins.

a fucking riot official survey from the client had a question "Do you feel like purchasing skins makes you win more games?" fucking what thats practically a backhanded/veiled question of "do we need to rig it harder or is it more noticable" i havent bought a single thing from them since.

Yep. I caught onto the bs before I finished my placement matches, I got 5 games in and decided it's not worth the frustration or effort to play Riot's rank scheme. I have more fun in normal matches, I love stats and it keeps track of all my stats in normal as well - so I'm in a good place now. I'd say just ignore the ranked feature completely if you want a more positive experience.

UrMom Knows Best3 votes

I feel exactly the same. The ranked system is a god damn mess. I have way more fun in normal draft

HeirofGoku1 votes

I might try that then because ranked has me pretty done with league to be honest. I only played ranked because i wanted a more balanced experience and that's out the window this season.

ExxonV8 votes

It's not rly a game worth taking seriously anymore. The combination of matches not even being attempted to be balanced and how dumbed down the macros become with all these obvious objectives everywhere that makes it so even an idiot can figure out what he needs to do next, add in that all the ez brain dead strats are the most rewarding and boom... worthless 2 worry about getting better anymore, it's not really gonna help u.

I had a game recently where me and my bot lane duo went about 30/10/40 Combined and barely won because of our Silver 3 1/8/3 40 CS Riven at 15 minutes

we all know something is wrong but how to fix it? make that only same division can play together and against same division? i cannot think anything else :/

HeirofGoku1 votes

Why that is not the way ranked is already i will never understand. Seems like the common sense way of making a ranked system.

TheyCallMeAP6 votes

Lol we hate it too. Imagine us silver players who have to lane against high gold or plat players. I mean I know placements is a way to play against better players and see if you are at their level, but Riot needs a new method that's based on stats and previous games because you either do alright against bronze or iron or get shitted on by gold

Daniel Shin2 votes

Quit your bs. The highest ranked player you've gone against on your account is bronze 3. Even in bronze/iron, your games don't indicate that you have been "dominating"

Damn my guy you really tryna go through someone's match history and going through the ranks of everyone they played? I'm not tryna be disrespectful but get a life my guy everybody talks themselves up on boards

u guys are acting like riot is gonna listen 2 u guys. they are in it for the money shame on the streamers for promoting this god awful game

HeirofGoku1 votes

The money will dry up when no one takes the competitive aspect of the game serious. There are so many "funner" games to play that without their strong competitive hook they don't have much else to keep people interested and buying. But yeah they wont care until they notice their wallets getting thinner.

The game keeps putting bronze 1 and iron players in my matches. Try to carry THESE abominations.

I'm iron now and I resent that lol I feel like good or bad player it really doesn't matter. If you're in iron - it's for the long term.

They want that. They saw how fortnite became popular among 7 year olds so they are using the same marketing. Kids are way more likely to enjoy shit shows in the game.

placement games are something you just have to endure. After 20+ games the mmr becomes a lot more accurate.

I have gotten 3 accounts through promos and it was predictably over by 10 min with no chance of a comeback because someone was just too stupid to be carried.

People just don't take their secondary or auto-fill roles seriously anymore. The season ranked changes have made people focus pretty much entirely on ONE main role. If they don't get that role, they don't care anymore; their LP gain and losses are minimal and do not affect their main role that much.

Also the skill differences are weird as well in matchmaking lately.

Last season made climbs seem hard but possible. This climb is like someone pushed you off a mountain, covered you in baby oil, shot you in both legs, and pissed on you for good measure.

It feels really unfair this season. I can't get out of Gold II despite being on the brink of my promos because they'll purposely place someone on a losing streak into my game, or i'll get people below my rank on my team vs the team that's my rank or higher. Feels VERY infuriating to deal with, not to mention I can't even play Leona because champs like Vayne Brand Zyra Fiora MasterYi Nasus Tryndamere ect. will utterly destroy me late game, despite trying my best to CC them and such. Not even worth playing a tank, just go mage or enchanter with damage items instead.

My recent gold 1 promos Bot lane irellia with cleanse with taric, they actually didnt do too bad but picked way too many fights we couldnt win, 1v5 dives, died the ,most. Top lane feeds out the ass (granted i played like ass in that game because of the constant oh just play safe under turret but 2-3v1 tower dives over and over) 2nd game, the SAME BOT LANE that does worse plus a 2-11 top ryze

Francis Xavierr2 votes

It feels wayyy different from last season where you were generally matched up against similar skilled players now its soo lopsided that if you don't have 15 kills and 250cs by 20mins its pretty much an auto loss because someone on the enemy team will be mega fed it makes absolutely no sense. I try to play safe in lane and just go for trades and all ins only when i know i can win but if i have to play a safe lane it's almost impossible to carry because my toplaner is 0/8 my midlaner is 1/5 and my jungler is afk in a bush, and this is over 40+ games and it's the same story every single game! Ill give some examples here my last game I had a zed mid who died 8 times to a zoe and the jungler had died 5 times trying to save him so basically even though i was ahead in lane by 2 kills it didn't matter because zoe could all of the sudden 1 shot everyone on our team too me that sounds like a matchmaking issue. Prior to that game had a teemo top vs a garen the garen of course has 5 solo kills within 10 mins. I understand that because I main ADC I kind of have the short end of the stick as far as carry potential goes in the current state of the game but it also should not be the case that if you are not or do not have a smurf on your team you auto lose, that basically defeats the entire allure of ranked if every game is a stomp because one team is playing there main role in one division while the other team is off-role 2 divisions lower than they normally are. This is also the case for all my friends at the moment whether they are low silver or high plat, I have one friend who has been at least plat since season 3 and he can't even get through his gold promos because of the matchmaking right now.

Personally never had a problem with match making till this season and when they released garbage flex que as the main ranked. Other than those 2, I am generally fine with match making.

BlackEyesBlue2 votes

Agreed.

Maybe 9 out of 10 games have felt like massive mismatches. Win or lose.

Ranked matchmaking was already terribel, now it feels straight broken!

Personally never had this issue really before. Like, never seen a silver in a plat game till now.

Haven't been this displeased with ranked since they did the garbage flex que as the only rank system with no solo/duo que.

Morgana Deus1 votes

I made it plat 4 with an 80% win rate. Got there and suddenly I'm the only plat in every single game . Every game is now low gold mmr. My teammates are all gold 4. My enemies are all like gold 2. Most miserable experience of league since preseason.

GankLord1 votes

Yeah i can't play ranked Solo anymore. I was gold last season and got placed silver 2 this season. I literally had games where I won 7 in a row lost one and went on a 10 game lose streak. The same thing happened when I reached gold again this season. I got a win streak to gold. First game in Gold I lost and have been on a 5 game lose streak. I'm done with solo q ranked until this MM get's fixed it's ridiculous the diceroll. One person can throw the entire game. It doesn't matter (I'm a jungler) if I get a lane super fed and shut down the enemy jungler. It only takes one person. Also the nerfs to vision they seem to love does not help. Now last season wasn't perfect at all. I still believe the best seasons were 3-5. I started in Season 2 and didn't get serious about ranked till season 4. However, this is the worst ranked season yet. It's a mess but because LOL is so big I highly doubt they are going to do anything about it. I still stand by the belief that runes reforged was the worst idea ever. All they had to do was make runes free in the old system but oh well. I'm just gonna play normals or Flexed till they fix this.
