Now I'm all for challenges to get better since I know I'm not very good at this game, but I'm so tired of having a fair amount lower elo team than the enemy in team builder. I know ranks don't count for anything in other queue matchmaking...but as I've seen suggested before it really should even if it affects it softly in some manner.

Thankfully we managed to win this game because I got fed in bot and Veigar got fed and could bring godmode Udyr and Nasus down enough quick enough for us to clean sweep most fights.

Often I go against a high plat or diamond in bot lane or mid and I get stomped or have to play super safe because I'm just not good enough..especially when I'm usually trying to practice someone new. MF is my main and probably the only reason I managed to do well enough (plus having a great support hooking Teemo for kills early).

It's not the best learning experience in games I get stomped as it's hard to even realize what I did wrong because clearly there was so much. Though again the main problem is lack of balance between sides.

Tl;dr: Another improve matchmaking thread. Please send help, Rito.

I know your pain, friend.

Only solution i've found so far is... to play ranked for somewhat balanced and fun games.

I'd love to just play Teambuilder and Normals, but i'm really getting tired of the ridiculous matchmaking.

Bronze and Silver are the majority, I don't get why I have to put up with platinum and higher?

Sad thing is i've seen much worse. Throw some silvers and bronze in place of the golds and another diamond in place of one of those plats.
