My friend and I

A friend and myself have been having fun in League for the most part. Recently though my friend and I can not get a good game going. Neither one of us are all that good, I'll be the first to admit. We used to be matched up against those at our own level of experience. However recently we have lost our last 12 matches in a row or so...... Against opponents that are far superior to both of us. Is this what we can expect for the remainder of our time here? Is there some reason for this? Should we just be done playing?

It really depends on a few things. Your normal skill is supposed to be figured out over a period of time. If you keep losing you should be matched vs similar players but it might take awhile. I have played the game forever so I am unsure what it is like for new players now. I have leveled up alt accounts but I win enough early on that the game is supposed to place me vs other higher skilled players or "smurfs" for the most part. It seems like it has done that and by the time I was almost 30 was only playing vs other 30s around my main account skill level. Was annoying since I did not have runes or all masteries but I knew what I was getting myself into.

I would think the games should start feeling more fair overtime. We all go on losing streaks so you might just be having some bad games or bad match ups. Just realize this games skill capacity is ever increasing and there is a ton to learn. I would encourage you to keep playing, but realize the game has been out a few years and a lot of players have more experience than you do.

Just finished a match with my friend....... 3v3 Our team mate died 3 times and then left game. We of course get our butts kicked. After game i check out profiles of those who we fought...... After so many losses I would assume that we would be fighting noobs like ourselves. Both of us combined have 120 wins overall in all game modes. Yet those that we are matched against have many more... One of them, in our most recent game, has 1037 wins in classic and the other has an amazing 3445 wins. Why are we being matched against opponents of such superior experience opposed to ourselves game after game. It's not fair at all and is becoming increasingly frustrating. Getting a fair match or even a win seems nearly impossible. Am i doing something wrong to get matched with such opponents?
