Lovely Teambuilder matchmaking at it's finest. Guess who won?

Because 2 plats, a silver, and mid-low gold going against 3 Diamonds, plat, and a gold is fine?

Wtf, I got the diamonds and plats mixed up lol.

Nevermind, this be cray.

Yeah, wasn't a fun game. Madlife thresh and just all around way better mechanics than us, kind of unfair. Ah well I guess.

Maybe they are pre-made?

Perhaps the match-making system wasn't even in play.

Though I don't understand why it matched your particular team up to them - maybe Team Builder just tries to find games as quickly as possible in 5v5s as long as you have a few summoners near rank of others.

Did they play like they had voice-chat and were always together/working with one another?

I only ask because how can we be sure it simply wasn't a pre-made of diamonds getting smacked into a game because there were no 5-sized teams of highers rank at the time for them to take on.

Yeah I'm quite certain that they were premade which made it worse. We got invaded early and they managed to pick up two kills and from that point on it was rather unfair. They just had way more coordination and everything going on, and after a while I felt like I wasn't playing against people of my skill level, and voila; three diamonds and the rest of the bunch.

It's just irritating because I find this happens more often than not whether teams are stacked up or not, or you get stuck with that one guy who's much lower elo and has too much weight in comparison to the rest of the players.

It's a serious problem for me. I like to use team builder to try new things but the opponent quality is really spotty.

sigh I hate trying new roles and lanes in team builder lately because for some reason I always get the higher leveled player in that role (even though I never play the role/char) and everyone else in my team gets the person who is new to it. It's sort of annoying because I don't feel comfortable ranking in yet I don't think I have enough experience. So trying something new always seems to backfire on me. We might win but the predictable outcome is that I am going 1 for 1 in kills to death ratios.
