Im done playing or trying to climb in this game since 7 months (for very well known reasons found on those boarda), and out of my 7 games past half of a year i had maybe one that actually counts as "normal" game.

How is this even possible? How one is supposted to get anywhere if in even one game per month you get regular moron in your team? Not to mention i lose as twice LP as i recive. Do im extremly unlucky or D5 is (always was) a dumpster full of boosted people?

You play one game once a month of course there's a good chance its a shitty game.

What if i was playing more often, would i get more (or only) shitty games?

Maybe cuz you dont play ranked often your MMR drops a bit? Idk, not sure how the system works

I get these players in Bronze, so MMR doesnt really matter

I should just play Norms, those are actually winnable for me even in bad roles like ADC or Jungle

Then learn to carry. Yea sometimes your teammates are gonna be bad. You can't help that, sometimes you have to carry them. If you can't accept that then don't play ranked.

Bad MMR. There's your problem.

Thanks capitain obvious, but in order to fix it i would have to win more, and that like, impossible in D5?

And maybe you would win more if you didn't play 15 games in a whole season??

Diamond 5 is hell , only people that spam the game and got there . They get decay to Plat and stay 0 LP D5 and they don't care anymore .

You can't walk into a competetive team game, put your ELO in the hands of 4 other people, and expect them to never make mistakes. They're just as liable to make mistakes as the people on the enemy team. That's how competition works. Someone has to fuck up, otherwise games would never end.

The key to climbing is to avoid making mistakes yourself, not ending up with miracle teams that do everything right. If you make fewer mistakes than the people you are matched with, you climb. Slowly, because you can only control what 1/5th of your team does. In your case, this means you can't expect to climb playing one game per month.

If you don't want to grind lots of ranked games or can't handle a team fucking up a game for you, you should avoid playing ranked.

I play this game once a month

and

I'm done trying to climb

sounds to me like you weren't trying to climb at all. You're hard stuck D5 and you only play once a month just so you don't get demoted.

PiVoRxSep 1, 20171 votes

Exactly? Why should i even try if:

i lose as twice LP as i recive
D5 is full of boosted people
My main is shitty af Trying to climb makes like no sense at all in those conditions.

You lose twice as much LP because you got up there and started losing a lot. Thats the system clamping down on you. In reality you should probably get demoted, but since you're using a cheesy tactic to stay there, you probably wont.

D5 is full of people doing the same thing you're doing. You need to take the initiative and lead your team. D5 isn't even considered the worst bracket to play in. Claiming they're boosted and complaining isn't gonna help you.

So don't play your main if you can't carry with it. Play something that is broken in the current meta.

If you aren't gonna try, don't complain when you don't win. Winning is possible even in lousy conditions, but you need to have leadership, and work with your team. If something is going wrong, try to help them out, whether that be a roam to their lane, or some friendly encouraging or advice.

I was trying, 2 years straight, i got to Masters in s5 when meta was favoring my champion/playstyle. But this is over now, i cant even escape this bulshit dumpster and im tierd of being either meta slave or stuck in elohell.

This game reached a state where in order to be succesfull you need to follow strict rules dictaded by meta.
