Just disappointing as hell, THE elo system in normal or ranked

ok get this: i play this game for fun and for measuring my skills, but the screwed up elo system this game has, i am having some complications. You see, you are simply not allowed to have more wins than loses! If you get like 5-8 win streaks you feel awesome and succeeded, but then the game suddenly thinks:"OK, you must lose, you will never have beautiful green match history screen, i hate green!". And this sorry excuse will put you up with trolls, feeders, afks, laggers and other people in general so the game win/lose rate compared to teams is like 1-to-10, meaning that you have 10% chance of winning and enemy has like 90% chance because they are much higher ranks than you and they dont have feeders. I have read some other discussions, quite many actually, where people say how fed up this matchmaking system is, and then gold and diamond and platinum division players just respond "you deserve your loses" or "there is NOTHING wrong with the system" or "every fed game is carryable". Then tell me Fing this: how are you supposed to carry team, if you have lets say, 4 deaths and 12 kills as only good player in your team while others are around 3 kills and 15 deaths, who ignore everything you say to them, running in head first an so on, plus enemy team has like 2-3 people who have over 10-15 kills and less than 5 deaths. tell me, HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO CARRY THIS?! This game is broken and it wants to make me quit this game so bad, but i dont have anything else to play :( And all forums truly are useless because those same high division players who troll and completely defuse all arguments that a person like me or someone else writes, and they don't come up with serious tips or self-experiences to support the person, they just laugh their a** off,mocking our problems. The other funny thing few days ago was that i solo queued, and i was matched up against 4 premade, who were consisting of gold II and gold I's. I actually made a new smurf account on west server because i had so much trolls and feeders on my team (and NEVER in enemy team, only mine) that i wanted a fresh start. But now those same problems have started popping up on west too, i had my first rank ever as silver III on east, but im currently unranked lvl 30 on west and waiting for a friend to catch lvl 30 too so we could start doing duo queues and maybe, JUST MAYBE be able to somewhat carry the other 3 feeders, which will probably be in our team, not on ENEMY team, and have some fun and win games...

Sounds like you don't want any kind of discussion; you've dismissed any rebuttals before they could be made.

I would give a real response but there are a few problems. Your original post 1) is a wall of text 2) tries to say that any criticisms from high elo players is not valid 3) you seem to be the kind of person that blames everyone else. A perfect example of the "I deserve challenger but my team sucks" mentality.

"im on a losing streak because i had a winning streak, not because im bad..." Please tell me you are joking. If you are as good as you claim to be you won't go on a losing streak. Sounds like you are tilted or bad and desperately trying to place the blame anywhere other than yourself.

Diamond player chiming in!

The matchmaking system and ranked system are hilariously flawed. They are horrendous. In pretty much every way imaginable.

It still flawed for EVERY one. It's an even playing field. The truth is, if you can't pretty much 1v5 in low elo then you are where you belong. Part of the deal is you have to recognize how to improve the play of all the idiots, morons, and baddies you get paired with in THAT game in just a few minutes. Part of the deal is that luck in matchmaking is a factor so the sample size to reach an accurate ranking can be quite large.

I can also see those high division trolls voting down every comment and thing i say, perfect example yet again how useless the forums are when it comes to discussing and helping, voting up the comments of a person who introduces the topic that has nothing to do with the arguments in my post...Thank you, each second proves to me how predictable people are and how true my calculations over helpfullness and trolling on these forums are...It's like i get it, you don't have these problems like i have, why you have to bully on the people who do have these problems? I'm just waiting for a person who has exactly same problems as I have to find this post so we could discuss it together and MAYBE find an answer.
