Real Tilted About That Forced 50% Winrate

Was on a win streak and getting competent teammates who were beneficial to the team effort. Now I'm on a huge loss streak, yet I'm somehow winning my lane or going even in lane every game while my botlane gets stomped for whatever reason and then lets their fed laners roam the map freely. I haven't had a competent ADC in a single one of my games, so its basically an instant loss.

Riot pretty much intentionally forces a 50% win rate to supposedly make it even.

When you win a lot, the game will think you did awesome and will place you with teammates that you are suppose to carry and win.

With the teammates holding you down, you are placed with better teammates to carry you. Once you win more, the process repeats.

The forced 50% win rate renders anyone from climbing.

Majority of my games are my team's fault (some games I do have bad games; however, it is quite rare). Hard to do anything when majority of the enemy team is fed compared to you.

Sad but true. Just look how high are "stomps", compared to close games.

it's okay man I know what you mean I have another account that had a 60% winrate after it immediately after that I got a 6 game loss streak game 1. bot lane refuses to group, jg refuses to get a free baron game 2. my main got banned and i switched with someone who happened to not know how to play mid game 3. toxic renekton top muted everyone, flamed everyone, solo walked into an enemy and fed them along with our 0/8 kayn jg who apparently didn't know how to play at all since he kept dying doing the same thing game 4. our jungler stealth afked, would farm then go back sitting in the fountain for 10 minutes game 5. a vayne top who nobody flamed, split lanes all game never helped us fight or group, and fed 7 deaths game 6. half my team was unranked and fed all their lanes In every game my kill participation was above 50% and i had a high KDA My winrate is almost at 50%, I'll be damned if somebody watched any of those games and thinks it was fair.

This is getting really old. I get competent teammates. I win a few games. Then I get a string of completely pants on head retarded teammates that feed 10 times before 10 minutes and throw the entire match for the rest of us regardless of how well I do. Once I've lost a couple, then I'm shocked to see I'm placed with people who are actually competent at their roles again.

You know anyone can check the match history, right?

Scores during your "forced" loss streak: 4/13/13 0/3/0 0/5/6 0/7/0

Cmon now.

Don't blame your lack of skills on the bot lane especially since you only play mid or support and therefore can directly impact it if you choose to do so. I guess going 4/0, 0/7 and 0/5 makes it hard for you to be strong enough to however.

Where did this ridiculous forced win rate conspiracy theory start? It's obnoxious and makes no sense at all! Even the most basic of questions throw out on its head!

Why would Riot do it?

How does Riot select the 4 people that should lose with you?

How does Riot select the 5 people that should get a free win in the other side?

Honestly I wish this 50% forced winrate shit was true, because I STILL haven't hit 50 in my SR games.
