Why is Ranked becoming Blind?
Ranked games are supposed to be for people who are serious about League but the 3 games I played today totally contradict that. I can't even believe that almost every other game has someone who is inting, feeding or trolling and places you in a spot where all you can do is take the loss. I'm not saying I have perfect scores every game because I don't. I have games where I feed my ass off but I am legitimately trying and because of this I can still contribute to the team.
Game #1 Fizz and I (Zed) were having a pretty good lane. None of us was insanely ahead of the other, it was a balanced lane where it came down to skill. Fizz killed me, I killed him and my deaths were understandable because I knew when I made a mistake, vice versa. It was pretty fun honestly, most of the games nowadays are 'stomp or be stomped' and so this was a nice change of pace. I look up top and the enemy Yasuo is 4 and 0 in less than 10 minutes. He has Phantom Dancer and completed boots, something that is completely odd because of the item price change. I see the Nunu run up to gank and figure at least he is going to get shut down but then "Enemy Double Kill". I'm like "!?!" and so I peek up top and Yasuo still has almost 75% health, easily taking a 2 v 1. Needless to say, Yasuo stomped for the rest of the game, he was able to 1 v 5 as long as he wasn't hit with CC.
Defeat
Game #2 I was placed Jungle as Master Yi and our Teemo decides to bush hop from river to enemy red. We start pinging him to back off as none of us are remotely near him and he was actually just facechecking brush. He's now sitting in the red buff bush and then the entire team comes out from the fog. He gets the smart idea to 1 v 5 and dies literally instantly. Zed, who was trying to provide some cover for Teemo to escape dies also. Before minions even spawned, the enemy had over 700 gold over us. Even with the handicap, I got pretty fed and was carrying the game decently well. Nasus was split pushing and taking towers in 4-5 Qs. Seemed like we were at a good spot but mid and bot both lost their lanes pretty hard and I don't mean just slightly hard...I mean full on brutal losses. Talon had over 12 kills with 5 deaths and Ezreal/Brand had around 20 kills between them. By end game, Teemo and Karma (obviously duo and trolling) both had 22 deaths each, totaling to 44 deaths from the bot lane. Mid had died 17 times and my KD which was 9 and 1 at the beginning of the game had whittled to a 17/12.
Defeat
Game #3 Just going to keep it simple. Bot lost. Pyke feed. MF dragged down by Pyke (no pun intended). Jungler powerfarmed and no one saw him until 20 minutes. Vayne: fed, Brand: fed, both carry.
Defeat
Each game, someone lost incredibly hard, feeding to the point where the enemy became unkillable and solo carried the game. Smash or get smashed but enhanced with trolls and feeders. Not. Fun.
