Ranking system needs to change.

This is getting ridiculous. Ever since I have started playing this game support has been my role. But these days I am ready to give up on this game. There have been 1000's of discussions and posts about "elo hell" and how if you don't want to be there simply "get better and climb out".

Well unfortunately for some of us we don't want to play LB mid or Yi jg every single game to climb out. I obviously could but how is that really showing you are better than other people at the role you play?

The current system ranks you on the ability to win based on 5 people working together at the same time. This is doesn't make sense. How can you have an individual ranking based on 5 people? Especially when games are riddled with DC's and little kids that get mad when they don't get what they want and intentionally feed in your promos.

It would make a million times more sense to have a point grind like season 1 and 2's ranking system where when you got to a certain amount of points you hit silver then another grind through silver then gold. BUT instead of basing the amount of points simply on winning or losing, base them on your mastery score after each game.

For example: I just did my placements the other day. I went 6-4 with Malphite supp. through the 10 games I got +S, S, S, +A, -S, S, -A, -B, -C, A. I was put into Bronze 4...

I play my champ properly (This includes knowing how to ward, zone, freeze lanes, abuse the rift herald buff, win trades due to baiting out cd timers, knowing the ranges and abilities of my opponents, picking properly in champ select, building for the situation in game the list goes on) And I know for a fact I am not a bronze player. I am not Diamond by any means, but I am NOT a Bronze 4 support... But due to playing a support you can't win a game when there is someone intentionally feeding or rage quitting if the enemy team has half a brain to take advantage of the situation.

So I beg you Riot please find a better ranking system. Even better than my previous thought would be to rather than rank everyone together, rank them as separate classes.

I believe that by doing this the toxic players will stay where they belong, at the bottom of the pile swearing, intentionally feeding and rage quitting with one another, while the people that actually play well and try hard the whole game despite losing will find it easier to climb out of the sewage tank that is bronze and low silver.

Thank you for reading and have a good night.
